Syracuse, N.Y. -- After one of the rainiest starts to May on record, Syracuse can finally look forward to at least a short stretch of dry, sunny days starting on Mother’s Day. It’s rained the first nine days of this month, only the second time that’s happened in 120 years of weather recordkeeping. And there’s a chance for rain on Saturday. But then comes aptly named Sunday, when clouds should part and temperatures rise into the mid 70s.

Syracuse, N.Y. – Micron Technology plans to start construction this fall on its massive chipmaking complex in the town of Clay — and keep building virtually nonstop for 16 years. The fourth and final fabrication plant, or fab, would be done in 2041, according to an environmental impact report Micron recently submitted to the federal and county governments. Syracuse.com has obtained the bulk of the report, which public agencies have refused to release.

Syracuse, N.Y. – Micron Technology’s proposed chipmaking complex in the town of Clay, and the growth that would spring up around it, would require significant changes to major state and federal roads in and around Clay. Micron says that to avoid gridlock, new exits will be needed on Interstate 81 in Cicero and on Route 481 in Clay. The company is also asking for the I-81/Route 31 exit in Cicero to be completely redesigned into something Central New Yorkers haven’t seen before.

Syracuse, N.Y. – The impacts of Micron Technology’s immense chipmaking complex in the town of Clay would reverberate through Central New York for decades to come, the company’s draft environmental impact report says. Residential and commercial growth spurred by Micron could bring up to 64,000 new residents to the region. The local economy would get an annual $16 billion boost, and local residents would have $2 billion more in disposable income each year.
