Several organizations have filed a lawsuit against the town of Torrey, New York for approving a plan to expand a Bitcoin mining facility near one of the Finger Lakes.
In court documents filed on Thursday in the State of New York Supreme Court, the Sierra Club, Seneca Lake Guardian, the Committee to Preserve the Finger Lakes, and more than 20 local residents alleged that the local government violated state laws by approving Greenidge Generation’s site plan to expand the operations for its existing Bitcoin (BTC) mining facility.
