**Significant local opposition and legal challenges have slowed Kevin O'Leary's proposed Stratos data center project in Box Elder County, Utah.** Announced earlier in 2026 as a multi-gigawatt natural-gas-powered AI campus near the Great Salt Lake, the plan initially spanned roughly 40,000 acres and faced immediate pushback over water consumption, energy demand, wildlife impacts, and rushed approvals. In early June, Utah Senate President J. Stuart Adams publicly requested a 75% footprint reduction; O'Leary agreed to halve the site to about 20,000 acres, remove sensitive areas near Locomotive Springs, commit water to the lake, and set aside open space. Residents and a nonprofit filed suit against officials and the oversight entity, while O'Leary has accused critics of spreading misinformation or foreign influence. As of mid-June 2026, the project lacks confirmed major financing or a hyperscale partner, leaving permitting, litigation, and political negotiations unresolved and making 2026 groundbreaking unlikely under current conditions.
