Summary
Meta campus of more than USD 10 billion in the LEAP Innovation and Research District in Lebanon, Indiana, Meta's second data center in the state. The state describes a 1,500-acre site with 13 buildings, 10 of them data centers, built in up to six phases; Meta gives a campus size of roughly 4 million square feet. Ground was broken on 11 February 2026, and local reporting expected operations in 2027 or early 2028. Meta planned its power needs with Wabash Valley Power Alliance and Boone Power, and Citizens Energy Group has said it plans to supply water. Indiana granted a performance-based 35-year sales tax exemption tied to at least USD 1 billion of investment in the first six years.

- Derivation
- official_exact_permit_record_reference_point
- Precision scope
- DNR record-reference point for FW-33468-0, an Orla campus-associated detention outfall at Deer Creek. The full DNR notice names the data-center campus at 3602 West State Road32; municipal July6 minutes equate Orla/Domino/Meta at that address. This locates one campus through its permit reference at the creek edge. It is not a data-center building center, construction work extent, surveyed facility point or campus boundary. Original UTM-to-map derivation was not independently verified; September location retrieval does not advance July6 construction.
- Horizontal uncertainty
Not reported
DNR publishes a permit-record reference point but no site-specific numeric horizontal accuracy. Service coordinate precision and transform agreement are not positional accuracy.
- Geometry evidence

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
Evidence
Sources are linked, not redistributed; each keeps its own terms. An archived copy is a lookup for the Wayback Machine capture nearest the retrieval date and may be unavailable or differ from what was reviewed. Each hash states what it covers; imported factual records are not publisher-page captures.
