## Summary

MIDA's Stratos Project Area Plan, effective May 4, 2026, establishes the planning framework and boundaries for the Stratos Project Area in unincorporated Box Elder County.

## Useful Claims

- Document title: **Stratos Project Area Plan**; effective date: **May 4, 2026**.
- The plan describes approximately forty thousand acres of privately owned land and twelve hundred acres of military and state-owned land in the project area.
- It contemplates energy generation, hyperscale data centers, advanced manufacturing, housing, commercial facilities, and supporting infrastructure.
- The plan says Box Elder County approved county consent on May 4, 2026 and that each included private landowner had provided consent to MIDA.

## Reliability Notes

This is the plan PDF published by MIDA, the issuing land-use authority, and is primary evidence for the plan's adopted terms, boundaries, and stated purposes. Forecast jobs, revenue, water outcomes, and development are policy expectations rather than completed results. MIDA publishes the separate adopting resolution as “MIDA BOARD Resolution 06”; this page describes the plan itself, not that separate document.
