Community sentiment

Contested

Community opposition over fast-tracked MIDA process, CO2 emissions (~34M metric tons/year at full build), light/noise pollution, and Great Salt Lake impacts. Utah Senate President called for 75% footprint reduction; O'Leary agreed to cut acreage by 50% (remove ~20,000 acres). Governor Cox ordered 'careful consideration' of environmental impacts.
