At a scheduling meeting this week, attorneys representing Project Jupiter\u2019s developers requested that the hearing begin earlier, arguing that the October hearing date would risk giving New Mexico Environment Department staff too little time to make a final decision on whether to issue the permit before their Nov. 23 deadline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Max Shepherd, the hearing officer, told attorneys gathered at the scheduling hearing that he was not going to reschedule it. He said he would keep the October hearing date and examine his options to push out NMED\u2019s Nov. 23 deadline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, two days later when NMED published his written scheduling order on its website, it showed he rescheduled the hearing by more than a month. It is now set to begin Sept. 14 and \u201ccontinue as necessary\u201d at the Sunland Park Multi-Generational Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat happened between Monday morning, when he denied their motion for a new schedule, and Wednesday night?\u201d Colin Cox, senior attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity\u2019s Climate Law Institute, which has intervened in the case, told Source NM. \u201cIt\u2019s highly concerning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cox on Friday filed a new motion requesting that Shepherd revert back to <a href=\"https:\/\/sourcenm.com\/2026\/07\/16\/nm-environment-department-schedules-october-hearing-for-project-jupiter-air-quality-permit\/\">the previously scheduled October hearing date<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maslyn Locke, senior attorney for the New Mexico Environmental Law Center, who has represented residents in lawsuits related to Project Jupiter, said the air quality permit case is among the most complex \u2014 and fast-moving \u2014 air quality complex cases she\u2019s seen in her career. Under the revised scheduling order, she said attorneys will not have enough time to review the \u201cthousands\u201d of pages of the administrative record, catch their expert witnesses up to speed and prepare for oral arguments by the time the hearing begins in less than two months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cRushing this through is going to create more problems,\u201d she said. \u201cThe department is neglecting the fact that once this thing is built, it\u2019s really impossible to undo it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shepherd, the hearing officer, when contacted by Source NM, said he could not comment on the rescheduling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A spokesperson for the state Environment Department in a statement said the department \u201cremains committed to meeting its statutory deadlines no matter the hearing date.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Monday\u2019s scheduling meeting, Jennifer Bradfute, an attorney representing Project Jupiter developer Yucca Growth Infrastructure, argued that the hearing needs to happen as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bradfute said her client would stand to lose $325 million per month, beginning in November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis project will start to abandon employment opportunities in New Mexico and there are many kids from the labor unions who want to be placed in jobs,\u201d Bradfute said during the meeting. \u201cWe really do need this to go to hearing as soon as possible. The state is at jeopardy to lose the project entirely, and I\u2019m not blowing smoke as I state that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At a Do\u00f1a Ana County Board of Commissioners meeting earlier this week, Executive Vice President of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Mahesh Thiagarajan and STACK Infrastructure Chief Development Officer Bobby Hollis presented the project\u2019s latest job numbers days before an annual report on the matter was due.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hollis said at the meeting that the project employed nearly 700 New Mexicans during its ongoing construction. To date, it has employed nearly 2,800 construction workers and generated $734 million of contracts with New Mexico suppliers, <a href=\"https:\/\/cms2.revize.com\/revize\/donaanacounty\/Documents\/About%20Us\/Economic%20Development%20Projects\/PJ%20-%20BOCC%20Presentation%20-%207.28.2026.pdf?t=202607291203050\">according to their joint presentation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The duo also told commissioners that they\u2019re committing to 100% carbon-free energy matching by 2031.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">County commissioners had previously set a Friday deadline for Project Jupiter\u2019s developers to file an annual jobs report. However, that report was not readily available Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In an email to Source NM, a Do\u00f1a Ana County spokesperson said the report would contain personally identifying information for Project Jupiter employees and that county leaders \u201cwill be working with our legal team to get a form of the summary posted on the county\u2019s website as soon as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>This story was originally published at <a href=\"https:\/\/sourcenm.com\/\">Source New Mexico<\/a>, a NMPBS partner. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Attorneys opposed to the project requesting a later hearing. by Joshua Bowling, Source New Mexico This story was originally published at Source New Mexico, a NMPBS partner.
