[I]Micron said earlier this year that the first fabrication plant, or fab, was scheduled to open in mid-2028. The opening has now been moved back to late 2030.

Completion of the second fab has been pushed back from late 2030 to late 2033, the company said in the final environmental report on the project, released today.
 
Micron did not explicitly give reasons for the delays in the report. A company spokewoman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Micron did note in the report, however, that the requirements under its agreement for $6.1 billion funding deal with the U.S. Department of Commerce had recently changed.

“The amendment modified the time by approximately two years in which Micron would have the option to commence operations of Fabs 1 and 2 for purposes of the funding agreement,” the environmental report said.

The revised agreement with the commerce department also called for Micron to build a second fab at its headquarters in Boise, Idaho. That fab, and one already under construction in Boise, would open before any of the fabs in Clay, Micron has said this summer in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

That agreement also allowed Micron to shift part of its federal grant from the Clay to the Boise project. The company said a year ago it would spend $4.6 billion of that grant in Clay; now, that number has dropped to $3.4 billion[/I]
