Low sesimic activity. You want the FAB to run 24/7 even if that means trucking in expensive water. Any down time will absolutely wipe out any cost savings from cheaper water. Probably even easier still to invest some extra capital to recycle more water.

What sesimic activity occurs in upstate ny?
- throwayyy479087 4y ago
  None, but taxes are much higher in ny

  Somewhat often but minor. I believe it's called glacial rebound. As someone tangentially involved in the optical side of chip fab, I am excited to have a neighbor like this. We work primarily with Micron competitors, but this is good for WesternNewYork.

    I feel like naming regions in New York is a fools errand, sure to “offend” everyone, but “western” New York is generally considered to be west of Rochester. Syracuse is about as Central New York as you can get.

      San Francisco is actually central California (Eureka is northern CA). Same premise.

        I think the concept is everywhere. Like everything south of 175th Street in Chicagoland is Downstate Illinois. Indianapolis is in the center of Indiana, so they call everything outside the inner ring of suburbs {first half of city name}-tucky, as in a pejorative reference to Kentucky.

        ...and Upstate is divided into lots of different regions, like Western New York, and Central New York, as we're talking about here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_regions_of_the_United_States#New_York https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_regions_of_the_United_...

        That’s only if you’re from Westchester. If you’re from the city, Westchester is considered upstate.

  There are minor quakes. When the College of Nanoscale Science built the facility for the now defunct G450C initiative, they poured concrete like 30 feet thick to stabilize the building. Unfortunately while the physical infrastructure was resilient, the business didn’t survive the university president’s conviction for bid rigging. Iirc like $150M of equipment was written off and sold as scrap.
