Summary

Meta's Los Lunas Data Center fact sheet, dated 2 September 2026 and published through Meta's Los Lunas asset link by 3 September 2026 (the link still resolved to the January 2025 version on 10 August 2026), says the Los Lunas Data Center is part of Meta's global infrastructure, gives '400+ Operational jobs supported', states that 'Our operational data center buildings achieve LEED® Gold certification' and that 'Since our Los Lunas Data Center went online in 2018' Meta has supported local organizations, with USD 2.5B+ investment and ground broken in 2016. This records existing operation of the Los Lunas Data Center on 2 September 2026, the date of the revised fact sheet; it is not an opening date, and it does not establish that every building of the 2021 two-building expansion is complete. evidence

Precision scope: Centroid of Valencia County parcel UPC 1006040520058000000 (Huning Ranch Business Park Tract A4A, 4250 Messenger Loop NW; 284.99 recorded acres, 285.04 geodesic acres, about 1,307 by 970 m). It locates the tract that holds the campus's data-hall buildings, not an individual building; support buildings and a second substation lie on the adjoining Tract A3A and a substation on Tract A4B.
Horizontal uncertainty: Not reported
The county publishes no positional accuracy for its parcel polygons (stored in NAD83 State Plane and returned in WGS84 by the county server); the centroid represents a 285-acre tract (furthest vertex 819 m from the centroid) whose buildings are not separately located.

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.
