## Data quality

- The exact asset is Aligned DFW-03 at 3801 Britton Road, Mansfield, Texas; reporting that concerns other Aligned campuses, other operators, or Mansfield, Ohio was excluded.
- The identified public hearing concerned zoning at the exact 3801 Britton Road property and was approved on December 4, 2023. The available record does not establish that the hearing was specifically for a data-center use.
- No tenant, utility, MW capacity, water use, PUE/WUE, generator count, or commercial terms were assigned because the reviewed community and local-news sources did not provide supported exact-site evidence for those fields.
- The research corpus contained no verified exact-site petition, named community opposition organization, or litigation record concerning Aligned DFW-03. This is a finding about the reviewed evidence, not proof that no such activity exists.
- Power values retain their reported, requested, contracted, energized, gross-campus, or critical-IT basis.
