-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the U.S. International Trade 
Commission has determined not to review the presiding administrative 
law judge's (ALJ) initial determination (ID) in the above-captioned 
investigation granting a joint motion to terminate the investigation on 
the basis of a settlement agreement between complainant Micron 
Semiconductor, Inc., and the only remaining respondents in the 
investigation, Hyundai Electronics Industries, Co. Ltd. and Hyundai 
Electronics America, Inc.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Judith M. Czako, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, U.S. 
International Trade Commission, 500 E Street SW., Washington, DC 20436, 
telephone 202-205-3093. Hearing-impaired individuals are advised that 
information about this matter can be obtained by contacting the 
Commission's TDD terminal, 202-205-1810.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation 
on December 14, 1992, based on a complaint alleging violations of 
section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 in the importation into the 
United States, the sale for importation into the United States, and the 
sale within the United States after importation of certain 
anisotropically etched one megabit and greater DRAMs, components 
thereof, and products containing such DRAMs, allegedly manufactured 
abroad by a process covered by claims 1, 2, 5, and 6 of U.S. Letters 
Patent 4,436,584.
    On February 4, 1994, complainant Micron Semiconductor, Inc. and 
respondents Hyundai Electronics Industries, Co. Ltd. and Hyundai 
Electronics America, Inc. (the ``Hyundai respondents'') filed a joint 
motion to terminate the investigation with prejudice on the basis of a 
settlement and license agreement. On February 9, 1994, complainant and 
the Hyundai respondents filed an amended motion, superseding the first 
motion, and clarifying that the license agreement covers the patent and 
products at issue in the investigation. On February 9, 1994, the 
Commission investigative attorney filed a response in support of the 
joint motion.
    On February 14, 1994, the ALJ granted the amended motion, issuing 
an ID terminating the investigation. No petitions for review or agency 
or public comments were received.
    This action is taken pursuant to section 337 of the Tariff Act of 
1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and Commission interim rule 210.53 
(19 CFR 210.53, as amended).
    Copies of the nonconfidential version of the ID and all other 
nonconfidential documents filed in connection with this investigation 
are or will be available for public inspection during official business 
hours (8:45 a.m. to 5:15 p.m.) in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. 
International Trade Commission, 500 E Street SW., Washington, DC 20436, 
telephone 202-205-2000.

    Issued: March 9, 1994.

    By order of the Commission.
Donna R. Koehnke,
Secretary.
