Who Must File This Report? The qualifying owner, operator and/or occupant of a qualifying data center or qualifying large data center project must

jointly file the report and provide all requested information about each qualifying job created. Please submit only one report per data center.

What is a Qualifying Job? A qualifying job is a new full-time, permanent job created by a qualifying owner, qualifying operator or qualifying occupant,

either singly or jointly, that is located in the same Texas county as the associated qualifying data center or qualifying large data center project, pays at

least 120 percent of the county average weekly wage in the county in which the job is located and that will last at least five years from the date of its

creation. To be considered full-time, the position must provide at least 1,820 hours of employment a year to a single employee.

The term includes a new employment position staffed by a third-party employee or contractor that meets the requirements stated above, if there is a written

contract between the contractor or third-party employer and a qualifying owner, qualifying operator or qualifying occupant of the associated qualifying data

center or qualifying large data center project, which does the following:

•

provides for shared employment responsibilities between the contractor or third-party employer and the qualifying owner, qualifying operator

or qualifying occupant; and

•

provides that the third-party employee is permanently assigned to the associated qualifying data center, qualifying large data center project,

or another location operated by the qualifying owner, qualifying operator or qualifying occupant within the county where the data center is

located for the term of the written contract.

When is the Report Due? The report is due as soon as either at least 20 qualifying jobs for qualifying data centers or 40 qualifying jobs for qualifying

large data center projects have been created, or by the fifth anniversary of the date the qualifying data center or qualifying large data center project

was certified by the Comptroller, whichever comes first.
