  "account": "The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection has imposed a record $1.07 million penalty on AI data center operator DataOne for operating 62 large natural-gas generators without required air-pollution permits. The generators, each rated at 1,982 kilowatts, represented nearly 123 megawatts of potential power generation capacity. The state found the generators during a July 29, 2026 inspection at DataOne's artificial intelligence data center in Vineland. DataOne claims the generators are part of a temporary power arrangement and plans to apply for the necessary permits.",
