applicant's project intends to make capital investments of at least
$250,000,000 in the State and hire at least 20 new employees involved in the
operations or maintenance of the data center;
2) the applicant's project is or will:
A) be carbon neutral;

attain
certification under one or more of the green building standards
required of a qualified Illinois data center as defined in see Section
521.20; and
3) the applicant's contractor has entered
into a project labor agreement approved by the Department or attests by
affidavit that a project labor agreement will be fully signed within 90 days of

agreement approved by the Department for the labor component of any
construction used to achieve the minimum required capital investment.
