Verified GIS

See what surrounds the proposed Pacifico site.

The Pacifico layer uses the eight exact tracts listed in J0049, with an optional georeferenced overlay of the OSSF-derived conceptual site plan. The map also shows the newly reconciled Black Mountain / Fort Worth Power Core / ECX AUS31 parcels, the MPH Bastrop Peakers host parcel, Earth Native's full five-parcel tract and shared property line, all 22 schools and early-childhood facilities, and 14 high-confidence SpaceX / Boring-affiliate ownership parcels north of Highway 71—alongside privacy-safe community opposition, residential, drought, fire, and response context.

Pacifico, the Black Mountain / FWPC / ECX AUS31 parcel set, MPH Bastrop Peakers, Earth Native, school and childcare, SpaceX / Boring-affiliate, residential, and public-community layers are on by default. Use Show local opposition for the privacy-safe broad-area totals, or open the layer control to add current drought intensity, farms and agricultural sites, ESD No. 1 station sites, the conceptual Pacifico layout, and other context. Opposition areas are intentionally generalized and are not household locations. Ownership parcels and the registered plan are not survey-grade or final building footprints, and jurisdiction boundaries do not establish staffing, apparatus, response time, water supply, or industrial-fire capability.

Voluntary community opposition

63 supporters represented

The initial list represents 29 people at at least 16 locations. Exact street addresses are used only for private review and are never displayed publicly. The map shows anonymous totals inside fixed broad areas—not household pins or address-derived points.

What the count means

This is a voluntary supporter list, not a poll or a claim that every nearby resident agrees. Bubble locations and boundaries are fixed in advance and do not move in response to a submitted address.

Duplicate entries in the launch list were consolidated. New entries require a one-person attestation, confirmation through the private contact email, and organizer review against the launch list and queue. Multiple adults at one location may count as separate supporters, while the location counts once.

Lost Pines Watch does not ask for, collect or publish supporter names through this feature. After organizer approval, an anonymous count can be added to the selected broad-area bubble immediately; there is no five-entry batch or seven-day waiting period.

We do not ask for or collect your name. Your address and email are used only for private review, duplicate checks and consent management—unless you separately opt in to email alerts below. After an organizer verifies the entry, the public map may add one anonymous count to a fixed broad-area bubble. Your exact address is never displayed anywhere on the public site.

The readable address is deleted as soon as an organizer approves and assigns a broad area. Entries still awaiting review after 90 days are removed during routine queue cleanup. A protected duplicate-check code and broad area remain; your email stays private so your entry can be confirmed or removed and, only if you opt in, used for LPW alert delivery until you unsubscribe. To limit spam, a non-readable network code rotates hourly and stale rate-limit rows are pruned after 48 hours during later submission activity.
OSSF-derived site plan

What the site layout appears to show

This colorized community annotation is based on “PACIFICO site plans 2 - stitched 1.png,” a stitched plan derived from the project’s on-site sewage facility filing. It helps separate the data-center, power, water, chemical, stormwater, and wastewater systems. The color is explanatory—not part of the filing.

Source-file note

The uncolored source is preserved as PACIFICO site plans 2 - stitched 1.png. The colorized version is an interpretive overlay of that OSSF-derived image, not a replacement for it.

Shown on the drawing

Two gas-turbine rating labels; BESS; ORC; ammonia, chemical, cooling, fire-water, wastewater, and detention areas; and four data-center buildings, two marked future.

Not disclosed here

Equipment maker or model, final unit count, BESS capacity or duration, fuel route, emissions and noise totals, water balance, construction sequence, or operating schedule.

How “TYP” is treated

“TYP” usually means a label or detail applies to similar repeated features. It is not, by itself, a final count or proof that every repeated symbol will be built.

01

Strong 76.4 MW candidate: Ansaldo AE64.3A

Direct Pacifico contract
Shown
“Combustion gas turbine: 76.4 MW (TYP)” and “combustion gas turbine: 16.5 MW (TYP).” The drawing does not identify the rating basis, manufacturer, or model.
Likely function
Different unit sizes could let an operator add generation in smaller steps, retain capacity during maintenance, and follow a changing campus load. That is a plausible design benefit—not a disclosed dispatch plan or proof of baseload-versus-peaking roles.
Strongest model evidence
Ansaldo Energia announced on July 20, 2026 that Pacifico Energy ordered exactly eight AE64.3A turbines in a 60 Hz configuration, with generators, for a Texas data-center power project. This plan appears to repeat eight larger turbine packages, while Ansaldo’s current brochure rates the AE64.3A at 78 MW under natural-gas ISO conditions. The plan’s 76.4 MW label is 1.6 MW, or about 2.1%, lower—a close match that could reflect a project-specific or net rating. Taken together, the developer, state, application, unit count, equipment class, and rating make the AE64.3A the strongest candidate found for the larger units.
Confidence limit
Ansaldo’s announcement does not name Cedar Creek, and Pacifico has more than one Texas data-center project. The OSSF-derived plan also does not state its rating basis or identify a manufacturer. This is therefore a strongly supported candidate—not a site-confirmed procurement record. The 16.5 MW model remains unresolved: its rating is close to the Solar Titan 130’s 16.53 MW ISO output and the Baker Hughes NovaLT16’s 16.9 MW power-generation output, but capacity alone cannot distinguish them.
02

BESS, metering, and medium-voltage switchgear

Likely function
Shown
Repeated “BESS (TYP)” areas, a BESS metering station, and “MV switchgear (TYP)” inside the power block.
Likely function
Battery storage could supply rapid-response power, bridge short changes while generators start or ramp, support ride-through, and stabilize an islanded campus. Switchgear would protect, isolate, and route medium-voltage circuits; the metering station would measure battery power exchange.
Still unknown
Battery chemistry, MW, MWh, duration, container count, operating purpose, electrical topology, setbacks, and fire-protection design.
03

ORC system area

High-confidence reading
Shown
A large “ORC system area” directly beside the larger turbine footprints.
Likely function
ORC most likely means Organic Rankine Cycle: a bottoming system that captures otherwise-wasted heat and converts some of it to additional electricity. Its placement makes turbine-exhaust heat recovery the most likely explanation.
Still unknown
Heat-source connections, working fluid, generating capacity, condenser and cooling method, or whether the ORC is included in either turbine MW label.
04

Ammonia storage and unloading

Likely emissions control
Shown
A dedicated “ammonia storage & unloading” area inside the power-generation fence.
Likely function
The most likely use is reagent supply for selective catalytic reduction, which injects ammonia or urea into exhaust to reduce nitrogen oxides. EPA identifies SCR as a widely used gas-turbine NOx control.
Still unknown
Ammonia concentration, storage volume, unloading frequency, containment and emergency safeguards, SCR layout, and permitted NOx or ammonia-slip limits.
05

Gas yard, black start, and plant restart

Likely function
Shown
A gas-yard area near the main entrance and labeled black-start generators near the switchgear.
Likely function
The gas yard would normally receive, meter, regulate, and condition fuel before it reaches the turbines. Black-start generators can energize essential plant equipment after a full shutdown without relying on the outside transmission network.
Still unknown
Pipeline route, delivery pressure, on-site gas compression, backup fuel, black-start generator type, rating, fuel, and runtime.
06

Chillers, HVAC coolers, and water systems

Two cooling contexts
Shown
Chiller Yards 1 and 2 beside Buildings 1 and 2; Future Chiller Yards 3 and 4; two 520-by-340-foot chiller areas in the power block; HVAC coolers and chemical storage; water treatment; and domestic, fire, and gas-turbine-wash tanks and pumps.
Likely function
The data-center chiller yards would reject heat from IT equipment. The separately fenced power-block cooling areas likely serve turbine, generator, ORC, inlet-air, or other plant auxiliaries. The labeled wash-water system likely supports turbine compressor cleaning.
Still unknown
Air-cooled versus evaporative equipment, design heat load, water consumption, chemical inventory, blowdown handling, redundancy, or which loads each power-block chiller serves.
07

Fire water, septic spray fields, and detention

Different water systems
Shown
Two fire-water storage tanks, a fire-water makeup reservoir, four 30,000-square-foot septic spray fields near the data halls, another 30,000-square-foot field in the power area, and separate data-center and power-generation detention areas.
Likely function
The fire-water features reserve water for suppression and system refill. OSSF spray fields disperse treated wastewater on site; they are not cooling ponds. Detention areas temporarily manage stormwater runoff.
Still unknown
Tank and reservoir volumes, refill source and rate, fire demand, wastewater design flow, treatment train, spray schedule, stormwater outlet design, or final authorization.
08

Phasing, access, and operations

Sequence suggested
Shown
Buildings and Chiller Yards 3 and 4 are marked “future.” The plan also shows fences, gates, guardhouses, control and denial lanes, an admin/control/warehouse building, internal roads, secondary access, and a 4.98-acre laydown area.
Likely function
The labels suggest staged data-center buildout while the access and laydown features support controlled construction, deliveries, maintenance, and daily industrial operations.
Still unknown
Formal phase boundaries, start dates, construction duration, staffing, truck volumes, gate schedules, emergency access, or whether power generation is phased with the data halls.
Bottom line

The plan strongly supports a tightly integrated data-center and on-site power campus with multiple turbine sizes, battery storage, heat recovery, probable emissions-control support, and substantial cooling and water infrastructure. The drawing itself does not identify a turbine model. A separate Ansaldo–Pacifico contract was once the strongest candidate evidence for the 76.4 MW units. The released air application now separately identifies 48 turbines across six model families, including eight Ansaldo AE64.3A units, and states 1,326 MW of maximum nominal output. The drawing does not establish final procurement, exact placement, operating profile, impacts, or approved terms.

The Pacifico project area is not inferred from its street address. Page 7 of J0049 identifies eight exact tracts, and Supplement 1, Figures 2–3, depicts their proposed-project boundary. The map also shows CAD-derived EdgeConneX site tracts, the four current Black Mountain / Fort Worth Power Core / ECX AUS31-area parcels, and the approximately 1,300-acre Amazon assemblage, the 120-acre MPH Bastrop Peakers host parcel, Earth Native's five-parcel property tract and shared line, 14 current SpaceX / Gapped Bass ownership parcels, the corrected 23-facility school and early-childhood register, privacy-safe community context, a dated weekly drought classification, and the Texas FireConnect station record. The Uppingham-owned R34648 and R55674 polygons are dashed to distinguish fee title from direct EdgeConneX ownership and from any unfiled building footprint. CAD parcel products are approximate and not surveys; a station location is likewise not presented as proof of staffing, apparatus, response time, water supply, or industrial capability.

Read the geometry carefully.

County parcel data is approximate and not a survey. Project points locate filed addresses, not buildings. The Amazon outline is a dissolved CAD parcel assemblage. Solid purple parcels R35120 and R25532 are currently owned by EdgeConneX Property 7; dashed brown parcels R34648 and R55674 are currently owned by Uppingham Adams Holdings. The dashed treatment signals that public records support a project relationship but do not establish direct EdgeConneX ownership or a final project boundary across the full Uppingham acreage. The optional conceptual Pacifico layout has been affinely aligned to fixed features visible in its embedded and reference aerial imagery. It is a georeferenced interpretation, not a survey, construction staking plan, final construction footprint, approval, or as-built record. The MPH outline is the full 120-acre CAD host parcel, not J0033 Supplement 1's 45.395-acre internal project boundary or the proposed six-mile pipeline easement. Earth Native's five polygons show the full owner-identified property tract, not active-use acreage; the highlighted shared line is appraisal geometry, not a survey. SpaceX and Gapped Bass polygons show current high-confidence ownership, not the developed footprint of every phase, and leased land may not appear under an affiliate's name. Co-located school and childcare markers use tiny display offsets while preserving their true addresses. Fire perimeters are historical, not forecasts. Residential points are anonymized and are not proof of current occupancy. Station points and five-mile guides do not prove staffing, apparatus, drive time, response time, water supply, or industrial-fire capability. Project distance offsets are measurements from Pacifico’s filed perimeter, not impact zones.
