It's only been open a year and is already down to 700 workers from a peak of 3800?

Maybe most of the original ones were contractors.

Having read about this in a Fort Worth paper, apparently most of the current "employees" are contractors. I gained the impression that this was always the case.

P.S. Meaning, people employed by a third-party contracting company. You know the drill...
