## Data quality

- The exact asset is QTS Manassas DC1, a completed building at 9400 Godwin Drive. Prince William County records identify it as completed, with a 2019 completion year and 127,000 square feet of building-permit GFA.
- The QTS Manassas campus page lists multiple separate buildings and addresses. Campus-level claims should not be treated as DC1-only claims.
- The March 26, 2026 Virginia DEQ permit covers multiple QTS facilities and addresses, including 9400 Godwin Drive; it is not evidence of a public hearing, community benefit, actual emissions, or site-specific impacts for DC1 alone.
- No verified DC1-specific petition, community group, public hearing, opposition action, or litigation was identified. Litigation concerning the Prince William Digital Gateway is a separate QTS project and is excluded from DC1-specific opposition findings.
- Power values retain their reported, requested, contracted, energized, gross-campus, or critical-IT basis.
