Microporous has adjusted its plans to invest $1.3 billion and create 2,015 new jobs, with wages in the mid-50s, in neighboring Pittsylvania County. At a meeting last night, the Danville-Pittsylvania County Regional Industrial Facilities Authority approved a $1.6 billion increase in investment, an average pay increase to $61,000, and a decrease in the number of jobs to around 1,700. They hope to have the plant open in 2028.
