Kentucky's PSC approved Rate EHLF on February 16. By the time the postmark dries, an average KU household is paying +$8.73 per month — a 6.54 percent increase the Joint Intervenors traced through CPCN docket 2025-00045 to capacity that the utility forecasts mostly for hyperscale loads not yet built.
This bulletin maps the indicators we trip on, the cohorts most exposed, and the alerts already raised. It is the civic-health twin to ATLAS — every number below pins to a place, and every place pins to a claim.
Rate EHLF, the new high-load-factor class for data-centers, was approved with thresholds of 50 MVA, 85 percent load factor, and a 15-year minimum term. The figures here track where the revenue requirement actually lands — and what fraction of the new generation's cost the utility has so far assigned to each class.
Rate-EHLF-specific cost-of-service decomposition is not yet on file. Until that COS arrives, the dollar-for-dollar trace from data-center load to residential bill remains R-grade in the ledger.
Households where energy expenditure exceeds 6 % of gross income. KU + LG&E service territories, 2026 rate basis.
Counties with active coal-to-DC retrofit zones. ECHO > 1 facility / 5 km², median income < 70 % of state.
Students, faculty, staff at University of Kentucky covered by 2025-10-01 ED OCR resolution agreement (Title VI / §504).
Smallholder forest acreage in undivided-interest title status. Disproportionate exposure to involuntary partition; under-served by stumpage markets.
BLS NAICS 1133 logging employees + sawmill workers, KY/TN/WV/VA combined. Track wages, fatality rate, MSHA proximity events.
Census tracts adjacent to Rondo / Overtown / Cross-Bronx / Indiana Ave equivalents in KY (I-65 / I-71 / Newtown Pike). Pre-displacement index.
+$8.73/mo (+6.54 %) crosses the 5 % threshold. Cost-shift attribution to data-center load is R-grade pending Rate-EHLF cost-of-service decomposition. Joint Intervenors notified.
214 violations in 90-day window — 62 above 12-mo trailing mean. Spatial cluster around 9 coal-to-DC retrofit zones. ATLAS dispatch sent two field operators for verification at Mill Creek + Brown.
Three small-system action-level events in 22-day window. Two systems serve Cohort-02 census tracts. Public-health crossover pane refreshed; dossier KY-ENV-ACCT updated.
Survey plots tied to Daniel Boone NF perimeter return 61.2 % mortality. Affects MARKET WATCH stumpage forecast for ash species mix; affects ATLAS canopy raster for Q3 refresh.
Resolution-agreement benchmark 27 of 64 returned compliant on schedule. Watch level only — cohort-03 indicator remains on track. 36-month plan continues.
The U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights resolved its Title VI investigation against the University of Kentucky on 2025·10·01. The agreement runs 36 months and binds the institution to 64 benchmark obligations, of which 27 are reported met as of this issue.
CHIMS tracks each benchmark as its own claim row in the ledger. Section 504 Rehabilitation-Act overlap is noted where benchmarks touch disability-services infrastructure. Joint reporting with the Office of Federal Student Aid resumes Q3 2026.
Where civic-rate indicators co-vary with health surveillance, CHIMS publishes a crossover panel. This week's three: energy-burdened asthma, PWS-lead pediatric exposure, and logger-injury rates per stumpage MBF.
Panels publish as PDF dossiers per quarter; the underlying joins live in knowledge.crossover_panel with sha-anchor and decision-maker assignment per row.
