Amazon is seeking to extend its dewatering permit for a data center site near New Carlisle, Indiana, to pump 35 million gallons of water daily into Nespodziany Ditch. This request, which equates to approximately 1.452 million gallons per hour, is due before the current permit expires in two weeks.

Local farmers and residents express concerns about the potential effects on crop production, drinking water safety, and aquifer levels. The St. Joseph County board has tabled the request for additional review and clarification.
