This is only the beginning. The Trump Administration will continue this relentless effort until every scheme is exposed, every dollar possible is recovered, and the American people’s trust in their government is restored.

CNBNews Archives: The $260M Holtec Project

William E. Cleary Sr. | Cleary’s Notebook News

(CNBNews)(July 1, 2015)–The $260 million Holtec project at the Broadway Terminal, Broadway and Morgan Blvd., Camden City is moving forward.   The terminal is managed by the South Jersey Port Corporation (SJPC). Holtec entered into an agreement last year with the state of New Jersey to build a state-of-the-art Technology Center in Camden which will take up to four years to construct.

Kris Singh, president and CEO of Holtec said, “Holtec will have spent at least $260 million by 2018 to make the company eligible for tax incentives that get distributed over the following 10 years. The net value of the state’s support to our Camden project, after federal taxes and net present value computation, comes to less than $150 million. Thus we are spending $260 million today in the hope that we will be reimbursed about $150 million through tax credits by 2028.

The Center is being configured to foster a synergistic environment for developing innovative designs for the power industry and for manufacturing of complex weldments in a precision fabrication facility.  The Center will have over 500,000 square feet of fabrication, machining, and staging space served by cranes with up to 400 ton capacity. Another 100,000 square feet structure will house the “test loop, laboratory, and training facility”.
