BOISE, Idaho – At least 4,000 construction workers are expected at the peak of work to build Micron’s $15 billion leading-edge memory manufacturing plant.

The site, which will manufacture dynamic random access memory (DRAM) wafers for data centers, industrial, automotive, mobile, AI and 5G market segment demand, will be the largest such facility in the U.S. when its first phase is completed in 2025.

A total of $6.1 billion from the CHIPS and Science Act is contributing toward the construction of this plant and the expansion of an existing Micron facility in New York.

The Boise Campus construction project will be spread out over a four- to five-year period. In total, the project will span more than 600,000 square feet. Micron says cleanroom space will begin coming online in 2025.
