## Data quality

- The exact asset is the Valero Energy Data Center in Westover Hills, associated with 3535 Wiseman Boulevard; the parcel record identifies the legal description as VALERO DATA EXPANSION II, Block 1, Lot 8.
- The San Antonio Business Journal and Data Center Dynamics items mention the Valero facility but primarily report Microsoft's acquisition or development of surrounding land. They should not be treated as evidence about Microsoft's projects being Valero assets.
- No MW, water-use, PUE, tenant, building-count, equipment, or commercial-term claims are made because the available exact-site evidence does not reliably establish them.
- Power values retain their reported, requested, contracted, energized, gross-campus, or critical-IT basis.
