新墨西哥州洛斯卢纳斯：70亿美元天然气电厂引质疑 开发商拒绝对镜头表态
11月13日，新墨西哥州洛斯卢纳斯市举行社区说明会，拟建的70亿美元、1050兆瓦天然气发电项目“Project Rails”引发居民质疑。项目选址在洛斯卢纳斯以西、25号州际公路以西约6英里处，位于6号州道沿线的中部新墨西哥铁路园，开发商为特拉姆尔·克罗公司。会上居民表示，开发商没有回答他们最关心的问题：这座大型天然气发电设施究竟为谁供电、是否服务于未来的数据中心。
瓦伦西亚水资源观察组织的倡导者凯西·麦科德质问，项目发电“不是给社区用的，而是给那些神秘客户”，并要求开发商说明用水需求。村政府官员表示，公司目前尚未向村里申请任何审批或税收优惠，因为该地块早已划为可建发电设施的用地，村政府对项目的具体内容也所知有限。开发商代表拒绝在镜头前接受KOB 4电视台采访，只表示这片空地上需要能源基础设施。下一步，开发商将向新墨西哥州环境厅递交空气质量许可申请，由州环保厅审核。
Los Lunas, New Mexico: $7 Billion Natural Gas Power Plant Draws Questions; Developer Declines to Speak on Camera
On November 13, a community meeting was held in Los Lunas, New Mexico, on the proposed $7 billion, 1,050-megawatt natural gas power project "Project Rails," which drew questions from residents. The project site is west of Los Lunas, about 6 miles west of Interstate 25, along State Road 6 at the Central New Mexico Rail Park, and the developer is Trammell Crow Company. At the meeting, residents said the developer did not answer the questions they care about most: who this large natural gas power facility would supply, and whether it would serve future data centers. Casey McCord, an advocate with the Valencia Water Watch organization, asked whether the power generated was "not for the community, but for those mystery clients," and demanded that the developer explain its water needs. Village officials said the company has not yet applied to the village for any approvals or tax incentives, because the parcel was already zoned for power generation facilities, and the village government knows little about the specifics of the project. The developer's representative declined to be interviewed on camera by KOB 4 television, saying only that the empty land needs energy infrastructure. Next, the developer will submit an air quality permit application to the New Mexico Environment Department for review.
