Luther ForestTechnology Campus


OVERVIEW

INDUSTRY. INFRASTRUCTURE. WORKFORCE. MARKETS.

The Luther Forest Technology Campus is located in New York’s Tech Valley, a 19-county region in eastern New York that spans from New York City to Montreal. This campus was built specifi cally to support the needs of the world’s technology leaders and is unmatched by any other technology park in the world. Companies at the Luther Forest Technology Campus enjoy many benefi ts including:

• 1,414 acres (over 2 square miles or 573 hectares) of greenfi eld space

• 8 developable areas that are pre-permitted for semiconductor/nanotech R&D and manufacturing

• Land that is virtually free of wetlands, ravines, archeologically-sensitive areas, or bedrock vibration issues

• A highly-skilled technology workforce and close proximity to leading R&D and educational institutions

• Close proximity to the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (CNSE) & the Global 450 Consortium

• Less than one day shipping time to more than 54% of the North American market

• Easy access to regional, national and international transportation systems

• Redundant electric supply with 99.999% reliability

• Abundant water and wastewater capacity

• Redundant telecommunications systems

GLOBALFOUNDRIES, the cornerstone tenant at the Luther Forest Technology Campus, is nearing completion of its Fab 8,the world’s most advanced 300 mm semiconductor foundry.

Infrastructure

The Luther Forest Technology Campus is supported by world-class infrastructure systems that are designed to serve the needs of global technology leaders. Each infrastructure system was designed for reliability and redundancy and meets the stringent siting requirements for nanotech manufacturing.

ELECTRIC AND NATURAL GAS Utility Provider: National Grid and NYS Electric and Gas (NYSEG)

Electrical Service – A new 115kV electrical service serves campus tenants. Four independent 115kV circuits connect the campus to the two regional utility providers (National Grid and NYSEG). A new 115kV substation is in place and both regional utility providers are in the process of upgrading their regional infrastructure to meet future demand loads.

Natural Gas Service – A 10,000’, 8” gas line with 150,000 cfh capacity serves tenants at the Luther Forest Technology Campus. A 12” gas line expansion is underway to serve future demand loads.

WATER SERVICE Utility Provider: Saratoga County Water Authority

The campus’ water system has a capacity of 10 million gallons per day. A 28-mile water line transports water from the upper Hudson River Intake/Filtration Plant to the campus, where water mains will distribute water to each developable site. A 5-million gallon water tank is in place to act as a secondary source of water if needed.

SANITARY SEWER SERVICEUtility Provider: Saratoga County Sewer District #1

A 10-milllion sewer main connects the campus to the Saratoga County Sewer District waste treatment facility. Laterals and force mains are being constructed to connect the sewer trunk line to each developable site.

ACCESS ROADS AND CAMPUS INTERIOR ROADS There are multiple entry points into the campus, providing easy access from all surrounding communities and to Interstate 87 (located 1.5 miles from campus). In addition, several new town roads, 5 miles of campus interior roads and seven roundabouts were built to accommodate higher traffi c counts and ensure a smooth traffi c fl ow at the campus.
