美国弗吉尼亚州政府发了个新文件,叫“数据中心问责框架”,专门管数据中心的监管问题,比如不让签保密协议,还要让社区参与审批。
Data Center Accountability Framework
Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger signed Executive Order 22, establishing an AI working group to assess risks from AI development. Concurrently, the state announced the 'Data Center Accountability Framework' to strengthen regulation of data center construction, increase community involvement, prohibit confidentiality agreements for commercial data center projects, and expedite noise regulation.
What it means for you
• Obligations: Data center operators must increase community participation in project approvals and cannot use confidentiality agreements. They must also comply with stricter environmental and energy efficiency standards. • Opportunities: Data centers investing in clean energy may receive priority for grid access. • Deadlines: The framework includes immediate administrative measures and proposed legislation for the 2027 state legislature.
