The gap inventory

Every gap this study names, with the record that would close it and where to send it.

On the record

This page collects every ask the study makes: 6 gaps named across 6 chapters. Each ask names a public record that an office could produce tomorrow. Each is the same ask the site's leads board already tracks, never a second copy of it. An absence on this page is a finding, not a locked door.

What this study cannot compute yet

04 Water supply & consumptive use Partial

A real impact study would report a single consumptive-draw figure against the receiving water's low-flow floor. [open]

Computing it requires any record of how the facility rejects heat — a water contract, a wastewater permit, or a cooling-plant spec; until one surfaces there is no quantity to screen, and no buildout is modelled here at all.

06 Heat Gap

A real impact study would report how much heat the discharge adds to a reach screened against Ohio's numeric temperature criterion at its design low flows. [open]

Computing it requires a thermal characterization for this project — none exists on the record.

Submit the record →

07 Groundwater & dewatering Gap

A real impact study would report the wells within the drawdown radius, and whether construction dewatering was permitted and where the water went. [open]

Computing it requires a well survey and any dewatering record — neither has been produced.

Submit the record →

08 Stormwater & the built surface Gap

A real impact study would report the runoff a campus-scale impervious surface adds to the design storm, routed down the reach. [open]

Computing it requires the site grading and drainage plan — requested, not produced.

Submit the record →

09 Air Gap

A real impact study would report the dispersion footprint of the campus's permitted backup-generator fleet. [open]

Computing it requires an air-permit application for this project — none is on the record.

Submit the record →

12 The fiscal trade Gap

A real impact study would report what tax revenue is being traded away and for how long, before the trade is approved. [open]

Computing it requires the county auditor's abatement report and the year-by-year exemption ledger — public records, none produced into this record. Where the agreement itself is on the record it states the TERMS of the trade, never its cost to the taxing bodies.
