CLAY, N.Y. — Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MU) on Wednesday said it’s planning to break ground on Friday Jan. 16 on work to construct its upcoming, massive semiconductor-manufacturing campus in the town of Clay.
The planned ceremony follows an environmental review and necessary permit approvals. Micron says it is now set to begin ground preparation and construction at the site.
The up to $100 billion project will be home to the most advanced memory manufacturing in the world and will help meet the growing demands of the AI (artificial intelligence) systems that are “central to the modern economy,” Micron contended. With up to four fabs (fabrication plants), it will be the largest semiconductor facility in the U.S., the Boise, Idaho–based firm noted.
