"Dow Chemical to cut about 130 [Greensboro] N.C. jobs as part of restructuring"

"Michigan-based Dow Chemical Co. said Tuesday that it will cut about 2,500 jobs and close its manufacturing facilities in Greensboro and Japan to achieve $400 million in savings from taking full control of Dow Corning Corp.

Expect little to any tax revenue impact analysis 

out of the News and Record or the Triad Business Journal, 

just like after the Lorillard layoff announcement

and the Miller Brewing announcement

The Greensboro site employs about 130 people, a spokesman told the Observer. Over the next two years, Dow Corning will move production from the Greensboro plant to other Dow Corning sites in North America."
