- Anyone putting up something tall near an airport has to tell the FAA first, including the crane that builds it. On 1 Oct 2026 there were 36 open cases whose own text says datacenter, across 5 states.
- Between 15 Sep 2026 and 1 Oct 2026, 17 of those notices were new, 4 were moved along by the FAA, and 15 were no longer on the open list. The file does not say why any of those 15 left it.
- We hold 253 dated datacenter rows, out of 29,168 open FAA cases in the newest copy.
- We have sealed 7 copies of the FAA file, from 10 Jul 2026 to 1 Oct 2026.
- A crane notice is the earliest public sign of a build. It usually turns up before any planning story does.
Real rows out of our sealed copies
These are rows we read out of dated copies we keep ourselves. The live source shows today only, so once a row moves, what it said before is gone from the place you would go to look.

What this page cannot tell you
- We find these by reading the FAA's own words. A notice counts only if the description or the structure name says datacenter. A project described some other way is not on this page, and we are not going to guess which ones those are.
- One project files several notices, one for each point a crane can reach, so the same site name can appear more than once. The case numbers are different, so those are real separate notices, not copies. And a notice is a request to put something up. It is not proof anything was built.
- We read the FAA file every 15 days or so, not daily. The comparison on this page is 15 Sep 2026 against 1 Oct 2026.
- A case leaving the FAA's open list is not a decision and we do not sell it as one. The open file stops carrying the row and never says why. Approved, withdrawn, expired and sent back for more information all look exactly the same from outside, so we say the case left the open list and nothing more.
- We compare the two newest copies and never the oldest one. Our first copy, 10 Jul 2026, was a wider pull: it carries 4,338 cases opened before 5 Jan 2026, and no copy since holds them. Comparing against it would print thousands of cases as having left the open list when all that changed is what we asked the FAA for.
- The FAA fills in its final decision on 1,162 of 29,168 open cases and names who is behind the notice on 1,228. Most open cases carry neither, so those columns are not on this page.
See the file before you pay
You do not have to take our word for what is in the file. Here are 25 rows of the real thing, carrying all 12 of its columns, cut out of the dated copies we sealed ourselves. Nothing in it is made up and nothing in it is tidied up.
- Open the 25 rows as a CSVA plain spreadsheet file. It saves to your machine rather than painting itself into a browser tab, and it opens in Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets.
- The same 25 rows as JSONThe same rows again, laid out for reading with code.
What arrives after you pay: a private web page with the register, the log of changes between copies and the limits, plus a CSV and a JSON you download from it. It appears on the page Stripe sends you to after you pay; nothing is emailed.
What you would be paying for: $49 once, for the Datacenter siting file. Nothing recurring, nothing to cancel and no subscription behind it. You get one private web page carrying the register of every FAA flight-path notice and every Texas air-permit application in our dated copies whose own text names a datacenter, with the first and last dated copy each one was on, whether it is still on the newest copy, and a log of what changed between each pair of copies, plus a CSV and a JSON of the same rows to download and keep. It is one dated file built from the copies we hold on its build date, shown on the page, not a feed: there is no promise of a new file next month. It carries no megawatt figure for any campus and says nothing about whether any filing was approved, withdrawn or built, because neither agency list says. The Arizona permit list is not in it. This is not legal, engineering or investment advice. Refund on request within 14 days. After you pay, Stripe sends you to a page that checks for your file by itself. A job that looks for new payments every 10 minutes builds your private page, and an Open your file button appears there when it is ready. Nothing is emailed. If it never appears, email operations@ustechautomations.com for a refund.
These 25 rows are a slice of the file, not the whole of it. What we cannot show you here is how far back it goes: that is the part you are paying for.
