   THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section  1. Legislative findings. The legislature finds that the State
 University of New York  at  Stony  Brook  ("Stony  Brook")  created  the
 Research  and Development Park in order to support the cross-pollination
 of ground-breaking research and cutting edge technology in  the  private
 sector to benefit the students, faculty and staff as well as the broader
 community. Now, Stony Brook has determined there is an opportunity for a
 private  entity  to construct an additional facility in the Research and
 Development Park, which would provide needed  additional  facilities  to
 support  the research and development needs of faculty, staff, students,
 and the community and seeks to use approximately 8  acres  of  underuti-
 lized  land  on  Stony  Brook's Research and Development Park to build a
 facility to address these research and development  needs,  as  well  as
 engage in its private commercial research, development and manufacturing
 of  tools to fabricate semiconductor chips, other memory storage devices
 or any future technology developed to hold data for later retrieval. The
 private entity, which provides new technology to aid in the  manufacture
 of  semiconductor  chips,  would address the national semiconductor chip
 shortage and related environmental sustainability issues,  fulfilling  a
 necessary  and  vital state and federal public purpose.  The legislature
 further finds that granting the trustees of the State University of  New
 York  the  authority  and  power to lease and otherwise contract to make
 available grounds and facilities of the campus of the  State  University
 of  New  York  at  Stony Brook available in this manner will ensure such
 land is utilized for the benefit of  Stony  Brook  and  the  surrounding
 community.
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
