SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Currently, the preliminary results for the 
fourth review of Dynamic Random Access Memory Semiconductors (DRAMS) 
from Korea are due January 30, 1998. This review covers the period May 
1, 1996 to April 30, 1997. The Department has received submissions from 
three respondents: LG Semicon, Hyundai and Techgrow Limited. However, 
due to the complexity of the issues involved in this case, including an 
allegation of transhipment through third country exporters and the 
requests by respondents for revocation the Department has determined 
that it is not practicable to complete this review within the time 
limits set forth by section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 
amended, Therefore, the Department is extending the time limit for 
completion of the preliminary results until March 2, 1998. This 
extension is in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act 
of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(3)(A)).
