Background

    The Commission instituted this investigation effective November 1, 
2002, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by Micron Technology, Inc., Boise, ID. The final phase of the 
investigation was scheduled by the Commission following notification of 
a preliminary determination by Commerce that imports of DRAMs and DRAM 
modules from Korea were being subsidized within the meaning of section 
703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of the 
final phase of the Commission's investigation and of a public hearing 
to be held in connection therewith was given by posting copies of the 
notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. International Trade 
Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the notice in the Federal 
Register of April 16, 2003 (68 FR 18671). The hearing was held in 
Washington, DC, on June 24, 2003, and all persons who requested the 
opportunity were permitted to appear in person or by counsel.
    The Commission transmitted its determination in this investigation 
to the Secretary of Commerce on August 4, 2003. The views of the 
Commission are contained in USITC Publication 3617 (August 2003), 
entitled DRAMs and DRAM Modules from Korea: Investigation No. 701-TA-
