Episode Description
 

The folks behind the massive data center proposed for Box Elder County have now submitted another application for water rights. According to this new application, the water would come from an unnamed spring in the Hansel Valley, an area just southeast of the proposed 40-thousand acre development. All this is happening while a rumored candidate to be Utah's next governor, former U.S. Representative Jason Chaffetz, says he's responsible for bringing businessman Kevin O'Leary into the plans.
