Several hundred New York leaders stood in the middle of an open field under a giant heated tent Friday morning to witness the ceremonial groundbreaking of Micron’s first microchip fabrication lab at White Pine Commerce Park in Clay north of Syracuse.
The project has taken a few years to clear environmental approval at the local, state, and federal levels.
Micron, an Idaho-based company, plans to build four mega fabrication plants over two decades on the site, making it the largest single private investment in New York State.
