Announced

United States · 1 project · Last reported

Summary

On 2 September 2026 the Missouri Department of Natural Resources published the public version of Shenandoah Computing LLC's air construction permit application (project 2025-08-034, installation 165-0050), which its pending-permits register records as administratively complete on 1 September 2026. The application is for a new facility named Shenandoah Computing LLC, classified SIC 7374 / NAICS 518210 (data processing, hosting and related services), at the south-west corner of Highway 92 and North Winan Avenue near Platte City, with five buildings (B1-B5) served by 240 emergency diesel generator engines and 10 further engines, 60 cooling towers and support engines for an administration hub, wastewater plant and warehouse, under a requested site-wide NOx limit of 249 tons per year. The applicant's October 2026 construction start and February 2028 start-up are forecasts. An air permit application is not consent for the data centre and no permit, site work or construction is established, so the project is recorded as announced on 2 September 2026. evidence

City parcel polygons (KIVA PINs) in Section 3, T52N, R34W and along MO-92, with legal descriptions and owners of record. The applicant's fence encloses 98.9-99.9% of KIVA 171635 (NE1/4 NE1/4, 14000 N Winan Ave), 171636 (W1/2 NE1/4) and 171637 (E1/2 NW1/4), all owned by Mc Winan Road LLC, and of KIVA 231347 (N part of E1/2 SE1/4, 13900 N Winan Ave, Hunt Midwest Properties LLC), and 64.9% of KIVA 171639 (SW1/4 and W1/2 SE1/4, Mc Winan Road LLC); privately owned residential parcels along N Winan Ave lie outside it (under 6%).

Precision scope
Area centroid of the applicant's fenceline on Figure 3 (Site Map) of the public application: the 24-vertex vector fence was converted with the georeference embedded in that GeoPDF page (NAD 1983 StatePlane Missouri West ft, four corner coordinates; affine residuals 0.09 m), giving a 426.1-acre polygon about 1.2 km east-west by 1.6 km north-south. It locates the fenced site, not a building or works extent; the combined centroid of the six building outlines drawn on the plan lies 228 m to the south-west.
Horizontal uncertainty
Not reported

The GeoPDF georeference states no positional accuracy; fence corners agree with Kansas City parcel lines to a median of 4.7 m (up to about 26 m along the south line), and the point is the centroid of a 426-acre fenced site whose building layout is preliminary.

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.
