What the hell is Aclara in Vinton. I’m right up the road from there and never heard of it. Wonder if it’s the sulfur mine between there and Starks.
A rare earths separation facility. The company is out of Chile. LINK

Meh.
Still waiting on the new roads and great schools that the new casinos were to bring everyone.

One of my cousins will be interviewing with Sarasonic in the coming months. They will find people. There's a lot of people in that area with marine/shipbuilding experience. A lot of O&G baws who are sick of driving to Midland every 2 weeks will probably take a look at working there. Broussard and Youngsville is only a 30ish minute to commute there.
I would have built it in the Port of Iberia but from what I hear there was a facility in Franklin that was vacant and fit their needs.
It will bring a much needed boost to the marine industry in that area which was mostly dedicated to building offshore platforms.

Same Donaldsonville that’s in Ascension Parish and Baton Rouge Metro?
Is it requisite to live in the same city where you work?

A residential developer tried buying some family property in Donaldsonville after the Hyundai plant was announced, but the deal fell through. They were trying to get the location annexed into the city for tax purposes and everything.
So yes, the big money believes they can bring residents to Donaldsonville, and some people with big money were willing to bet on it until the deal collapsed.

That's why Hyundai is just going to bring them straight from S. Korea.
