This bill establishes a moratorium on the construction of new data centers in New Hampshire for one year from the effective date of the act. It defines a "data center" as a facility with a large group of networked computer servers used for remote data storage, processing, or distribution. The bill also creates a committee tasked with studying the environmental impact of data centers in the state, which will consist of three members from the House of Representatives and one member from the Senate, all appointed by their respective leaders. Members will receive mileage compensation for their duties.

The committee is required to conduct its study and report its findings, along with any legislative recommendations, to various state officials by November 1, 2025, with a final report due by November 1, 2026. The act will take effect 60 days after its passage. Notably, the bill does not include any deletions from current law, as it introduces new provisions regarding the moratorium and the establishment of the committee.
