Current canonical record

This record tracks Applied Digital Delta Forge 1 AI Factory Campus in Louisiana.

KALB's June 25, 2026 records-review article, updated July 15, reported Applied Digital responses and local documents for Delta Forge 1: Applied Digital said only two buildings are currently planned over four overlapping phases, though KALB said construction plans show additional future-building schematics. The article reported 672.52 acres allotted for the campus, about 300 acres announced for the two-building construction plan, a 300 MW critical IT load, and LDEQ records for air and water permitting. Applied Digital estimated initial closed-loop cooling fill at 866,000 gallons per building, a little over 1.7 million gallons total, with a committed routine water range of 1,200 to 4,800 gallons per day and a 50 gallon-per-minute limit. KALB also reported an LDEQ May 27 citation for failure to control particulate emissions after dust complaints. This update does not change the canonical $3.6B or 300 MW fields, but it adds permitting, water, phasing, and construction-compliance context.
