 AN ACT relating to authorizing the state university of New York at Stony
   Brook to lease certain lands for the purpose of constructing a facili-
   ty  to  support research and development to address the national semi-
   conductor  chip  shortage  and  related  environmental  sustainability
   issues
 
   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.
