The recent edition of "In Business"  magazine reports that the world’s largest solar eneregy project located near Primm is providing 480 laborer  psotions on site, and that 10 to 15% of the workers come from Clark County.    In addition to union labor, who must come from’San Berardino County first,,there will also be  about 220 executive  and other positions.  At  its peak, the  project will employ about 1,400 construction workers such as carpenters, desertt biologists, engineers, and others.
