Ed Negra, a resident of the Eagle Rock Resort community, speaks about the proposed data center development called "Project Hazelnut" in Hazle Township, Pennsylvania, on October 6, 2026. Eagle Rock Resort has hundreds of comfortable homes scattered through the woods, two golf courses, swimming pools, an equestrian center and even a few ski slopes for the winter. On his terrace overlooking the forest in eastern Pennsylvania, Ed Negra lays out four letters. All are from a developer promising a $10,000 check to each household once its data center is running. "I call it a bribe," says the American retiree. More than 1,200 acres (500 hectares) of land below the resort were cleared to build the future server complex.
