Three Effingham County residents are suing OpenAI, two affiliates and county officials over the planned $30 billion Project Camellia data center in Georgia. The complaint alleges civil racketeering, conspiracy and improper zoning procedures, and seeks damages over claimed effects on nearby property values. The proposed 3.2 GW campus would occupy a 1,440-acre parcel near Rincon, with four data center buildings. A decision on final permission has moved from November 4 to November 19; construction could begin in 2028 if approved. This is the third lawsuit concerning the project, and none has yet reached court.
