A California company will be turning part of a former paper mill site in Millinocket into a $300 million data center, scheduled to be running in late 2022. Nautilus Data Technologies announced Saturday it would build a 60-megawatt data center on 13 acres at the former site of the Great Northern Paper Co. State officials and politicians were in Millinocket to welcome the company and tout its ability to help revitalize the area, which was once a prosperous papermaking center but has been hit by hard times in recent years.
