The town was selected because of the lake.

75,000 gallons/day - they need water like a junkie needs heroin.

Census in 2020 showed population of 16,843.

Aside from the temporary construction jobs..

Once development is completed, the facility would foster 50 to 75 full-time 'high paying, six-figure' jobs.

And I'd bet few if any of those jobs will go to local people who already live there. Unless Menomonie is a hidden hotbed of tech talent...😆

So, Lose-Lose for the locals, as usual.
