EFFECTIVE DATE: April 22, 1998. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Shawn Thompson or David Genovese, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. 20230; telephone: (202) 482-1776 or (202) 482-0498, respectively. The Applicable Statute Unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), are references to the provisions effective January 1, 1995, the effective date of the amendments made to the Act by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA). In addition, unless otherwise indicated, all citations to the Department of Commerce's (the Department's) regulations are to the regulations codified at 19 CFR Part 353 (April 1, 1996). Scope of Order The products covered by this order are synchronous, asynchronous, and specialty static random access memory semiconductors (SRAMs) from Taiwan, whether assembled or unassembled. Assembled SRAMs include all package types. Unassembled SRAMs include processed wafers or die, uncut die and cut die. Processed wafers produced in Taiwan, but packaged, or assembled into memory modules, in a third country, are included in the scope; processed wafers produced in a third country and assembled or packaged in Taiwan are not included in the scope. The scope of this order includes modules containing SRAMs. Such modules include single in-line processing modules (SIPs), single in- line memory modules (SIMMs), dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs), memory cards, or other collections of SRAMs, whether unmounted or mounted on a circuit board. The scope of this order does not include SRAMs that are physically integrated with other components of a motherboard in such a manner as to constitute one inseparable amalgam (i.e., SRAMs soldered onto motherboards). The SRAMs within the scope of this order are currently classifiable under the subheadings 8542.13.8037 through 8542.13.8049, 8473.30.10 through 8473.30.90, and 8542.13.8005 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Although the HTSUS subheadings are provided for convenience and customs purposes, the written description of the scope of this order is dispositive. Amended Antidumping Duty Order On April 9, 1998, the International Trade Commission (ITC) notified the Department of its final determination, pursuant to section 735(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, that an industry in the United States is materially injured by reason of imports of static random access memory semiconductors (SRAMs) from Taiwan. On April 16, 1998, in accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act, the Department published the antidumping duty order on SRAMs from Taiwan. However, the antidumping duty order published on April 16, 1998, only included the weighted-average dumping margins for the four companies for which the Department calculated a margin based on company-specific data (i.e., Alliance Semiconductor Corporation, Integrated Silicon Solutions (Taiwan), Inc., United Microelectronics Corporation, and Winbond Electronics Corporation); it did not include the weighted-average dumping margins for the three companies for which the Department relied on the facts otherwise available to calculate a margin (i.e., Advance Microelectronics Products Inc., Best Integrated Technology, Inc., and Texas Instruments-Acer Incorporated, all of which either did not respond to the Department's questionnaire or only provided a partial response). This amended order is being published to correct this error. In accordance with section 736(a)(1) of the Act, the Department will direct Customs officers to assess, upon further advice by the administering authority, antidumping duties equal to the amount by which the normal value of the merchandise exceeds the export price or constructed export price of the merchandise for all entries of SRAMs from Taiwan. These antidumping duties will be assessed on all unliquidated entries of SRAMs from Taiwan entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after October 1, 1997, the date on which the Department published its preliminary determination in the Federal Register (62 FR 51442). On or after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register, Customs officers must require, at the [[Page 19899]] same time as importers would normally deposit estimated duties on this merchandise, a cash deposit equal to the estimated weighted-average dumping margins as noted below. The ``All Others'' rate applies to all exporters of SRAMs not specifically listed below. The ad valorem weighted-average dumping margins are as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Weighted- Manufacturer/producer/exporter average margin percentage ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Advance Microelectronics Products Inc................... 113.85 Alliance Semiconductor Corporation...................... 50.15 Best Integrated Technology, Inc......................... 113.85 Integrated Silicon Solutions (Taiwan), Inc.............. 7.56 Texas Instruments-Acer Incorporated..................... 113.85 United Microelectronics Corporation..................... 93.71 Winbond Electronics Corporation......................... 101.53 All Others.............................................. 41.75 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This amended order is published pursuant to section 736(a) of the Act and 19 CFR 353.21. Dated: April 17, 1998. Joseph A. Spetrini, Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
