A proposed data center is planned just outside of Harlingen's city limits, and the city's water agency may play a role in its development. Harlingen WaterWorks has an agreement that could provide the data center with a significant amount of sewer water daily. The agreement includes a provision for the sale of potable water if sewer water is not available.

This clause suggests that Harlingen WaterWorks may have the option to sell drinking water to the data center under certain circumstances. Further details about the agreement and the proposed data center are available from the source, including the actions taken by WaterWorks' board last September.
