The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is conducting an environmental review of Micron’s plans for a manufacturing mega campus to make dynamic random-access memory chips in central New York state, the agency said on Friday. Micron intends to invest up to $100 billion over the next 20-plus years to construct the 1,400-acre (570-hectare) campus in Clay, New York, with $20 billion planned by 2030. The company has applied for funding under the Commerce Department’s $39 billion “Chips and Science” semiconductor subsidy program, and an environmental review is required if the project receives government funding, the agency said.
