Intel plant drives local hiring and education gains in Sandoval County
The Sandoval County Commission toured Intel Rio Rancho as part of the $8 billion bond package approved in 1995. Intel increased local hires to 67 percent of new staff totaling 1093 New Mexicans with 290 from Sandoval County, paying over $35,000 on average and boosting local vendor purchases to about $160 million plus $137 million for silicon and construction. The company supported education with 1997 spending on computers and training and pledged $30 million for a new high school, while environmental safeguards and an air-emissions permit process continue to be addressed.
