Data centers were not well covered by 90.1-2007. None of the BAM facilities seem to apply. The closest I can see might be an equipment room in a manufacturing facility. You might also do some extrapolation from 90.1-2010. I think it covers data centers but the LPD values went down. So if you extrapolate some of the common areas to determine how much the LPD went down and then applied that to the data center values you may be able to justify that as a baseline.
