Facts

Signal notes

This record covers TWO distinct campuses announced together in Sept 2024: Pine Hill Business Campus (Ridgeville) and Winding Woods Commerce Park (St. George). Per the two-campuses-two-records rule they should become separate records, but every current signal is joint — the $2B investment, the location pair, and the "two new campuses / 200 operational jobs" status are all reported combined with no per-campus breakdown. Splitting now would require either duplicating signals across records (breaking the one-signal-one-site consumption contract) or inventing per-campus values, so a single county-level record is retained until per-campus signals arrive. investment_usd is the combined $2B. No single locality chosen (two equally valid — Ridgeville, St. George), so id/place resolve to Dorchester County. Source phrased status as "announced/under construction"; recorded as under-construction, with the ambiguity noted.
