On March 4, 2016, due to the malfunction of its wastewater treatment facility, a ChipMOS Taiwan factory located in Chupei, Taiwan was found abnormally discharging wastewater. Upon notification, ChipMOS Taiwan was able to mitigate the environmental impact by immediately ceasing the abnormal discharge and collecting the wastewater that had been discharged. The wastewater treatment facility was also immediately repaired and the factory resumed its normal operations on the next day, March 5, 2016. On April 15, 2016, the Hsinchu County Government imposed an administrative fine of NT$ 4,158,000 or approximately US$126,807 (at the exchange rate of NT$32.79 to US$1.00) on ChipMOS Taiwan for the violation of the statutory effluent standards.
