Notification of AI Data Center No Proposal

ARNOLD AIR FORCE BASE, Tenn. - Arnold Air Force Base leadership has been notified by the Air Force Civil Engineering Center (AFCEC) that potential Enhanced Use Lease offerors will not be submitting proposals for Arnold AFB parcels for an AI Data Center.

This decision was based on responses they received from the companies who participated in their multi-installation source selection process.

The official deadline to submit such proposals was 29 May.

Arnold AFB was one of many bases that was being considered. The Air Force offered land for AI Data Center development at five installations: Arnold AFB, Tenn., Edwards AFB, Calif., Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JBMDL), N.J., Davis-Monthan AFB, Ariz., and/or Robins AFB, Ga. The Air Force selected these installations based on market analysis, infrastructure availability, and strategic importance.

UPDATE: Spring Cleanup Canceled for Storm Threat

Today's podcast drop includes a conversation about the Duck River Watershed Society's annual Spring Cleanup. Soon after the episode went live, this weekend's event was canceled due to the threat of severe weather.

"We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to all of the volunteers who registered, as well as our partners, vendors, and community organizations who worked so hard to help plan this event. Your support is the reason our first four clean-ups have been such a tremendous success, and we are deeply grateful for your continued commitment to the Duck River."

Stay safe and dry this weekend, folks. Find out more about the DRWS at www.duckriverws.com.
