Carbon County, Utah Planning Commission meeting — November 12, 2026: The commission considered Valor Atomics’ conditional use permit for the proposed Raceway Energy Campus on approximately 640 acres of SITLA land. The proposed industrial campus includes nuclear fuel manufacturing, data-center facilities, and on-site nuclear and natural-gas power generation, with a stated combined capacity of up to 3 gigawatts. Valor described potential local hiring and use of local contractors, but the meeting did not include a contract award, bid approval, or specific procurement spending decision.

After discussion of regulatory approvals and proposed permit conditions, the commission approved the conditional use permit as amended; the motion carried with one nay and four yes votes. Conditions discussed include required NRC licenses for applicable nuclear activities, industrial rather than culinary water for power generation and cooling, traffic and road-management plans, noise limits, emergency-response training and equipment, and financial assurance for reclamation. Commissioners also raised concerns about the proposed access road and noise limits. No budget allocation or procurement action was identified.
