Dynamic Random Access Memory

Semiconductors (‘‘DRAMs’’) of One

Megabit and Above From the Republic

of Korea; Preliminary Results of Full

Sunset Review

AGENCY: Import Administration,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of preliminary results of

full sunset review: Dynamic Random

Access Memory Semiconductors

(‘‘DRAMs’’) of One Megabit and Above

from the Republic of Korea.

SUMMARY: On November 2, 1999, the

Department of Commerce (‘‘the

Department’’) initiated a sunset review

of the antidumping duty order on

dynamic random access memory

semiconductors (‘‘DRAMs’’) of one

megabit and above from the Republic of

Korea (‘‘Korea’’) (64 FR 59160) pursuant

to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of

1930, as amended (‘‘the Act’’). On the

basis of a notice of intent to participate

filed on behalf of domestic interested

parties and adequate substantive

responses filed on behalf of the

domestic and respondent interested

parties, the Department determined to

conduct a full sunset review. As a result

of this review, the Department

preliminarily finds that revocation of

the antidumping duty order would

likely lead to continuation or recurrence

of dumping at the levels indicated in the

Preliminary Results of Review section of

this notice.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 30, 2000.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Applicable Statute

Unless otherwise indicated, all

citations to 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 regulations are to 19

CFR Part 351 (1999). Guidance on

methodological or analytical issues

relevant to the Department’s conduct of

sunset reviews is set forth in the

Department Policy Bulletin 98:3—

Policies Regarding the Conduct of FiveYear (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews of

Antidumping and Countervailing Duty

Orders; Policy Bulletin, 63 FR 18871

(April 16, 1998) (Sunset Policy

Bulletin).

Background

On November 2, 1999, the Department

initiated a sunset review of the

antidumping duty order on DRAMs of

one megabit and above from Korea (64

FR 59160). We invited parties to

comment. On the basis of a notice of

intent to participate filed on behalf of

domestic interested parties and

adequate substantive responses filed on

behalf of domestic and respondent

interested parties, the Department

determined to conduct a full sunset

review. The Department is conducting

this sunset review in accordance with

sections 751 and 752 of the Act.

In accordance with section

751(c)(5)(C)(v) of the Act, the

Department may treat a review as

extraordinarily complicated if it is a

review of a transition order (i.e., an

order in effect on January 1, 1995). This

review concerns a transition order

within the meaning of section

751(c)(6)(C)(ii) of the Act. On February

34440 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 104 / Tuesday, May 30, 2000 / Notices

1See Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary

Results of Full Five-Year Reviews, 65 FR 10048

(February 25, 2000).

25, 2000, the Department determined

that the sunset review of the

antidumping duty order on DRAMs

from Korea is extraordinarily

complicated and extended the time

limit for completion of the preliminary

results of this review until not later than

May 22, 2000, in accordance with

section 751(c)(5)(B) of the Act.1

Scope of Review

The products covered by this order

include DRAMs of one megabit and

above from Korea. Assembled DRAMs

include all package types. Unassembled

DRAMs include processed wafers, uncut

die, and cut die. Processed wafers

produced in Korea, but packaged or

assembled into memory modules in a

third country, are included in the scope;

wafers produced in a third country and

assembled or packaged in Korea are not

included in the scope. The scope of this

review includes memory modules. A

memory module is a collection of

DRAMs, the sole function of which is

memory. Modules include single in-line

processing modules (‘‘SIPs’’), single inline memory modules (‘‘SIMMs’’), or

other collections of DRAMs, whether

unmounted or mounted on a circuit

board. Modules that contain other parts

that are needed to support the function

of memory are covered. Only those

modules which contain additional items

which alter the function of the module

to something other than memory, such

as video graphics adapter (‘‘VGA’’)

boards and cards, are not included in

the scope. The scope of this review also

includes video random access memory

semiconductors (‘‘VRAMS’’), as well as

any future packaging and assembling of

DRAMs, and removable memory

modules placed on motherboards, with

or without a central processing unit

(‘‘CPU’’), unless the importer of

motherboards certifies with the Customs

Service that neither it nor a party related

to it or under contract to it will remove

the modules from the motherboards

after importation. The scope of this

review does not include DRAMs or

memory modules that are re-imported

for repair or replacement. The DRAMs

and modules subject to this review are

currently classifiable under subheadings

8471.50.0085, 8471.91.8085,

8542.11.0024, 8542.11.8026,

8542.13.8005, 8471.91.0090,

8542.13.8024, 8471.91.4000,

8542.11.0001, 8542.11.8024 and

8542.13.8026 of the Harmonized Tariff

Schedule of the United States

(‘‘HTSUS’’).

Although the HTSUS subheadings are

provided for convenience and customs

purposes, the Department’s written

description of the scope of this order

remains dispositive.
