Oppidan to conduct sound study amid Hanover Humane Society concerns

Oppidan, a data center developer planning a project in Ashland, is responding to concerns about noise and disruptions raised by local residents and the Hanover Humane Society, WRIC reported.

The developer plans to conduct a sound study soon to better understand the potential impact of the data center on the surrounding community and the humane society's operations.

This step comes as part of efforts to address community feedback and ensure that the project minimizes disturbances in the area, according to WRIC.

The sound study results will likely inform future decisions regarding the development and any necessary mitigation measures to protect the local environment and residents' quality of life.
