TAIPEI: There will be no impact on production by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd (TSMC) , from water usage curbs set to take effect on June 1, the world's largest contract chipmaker said on Wednesday.

If there is no significant rain by month-end, tech powerhouse Taiwan will step up the restrictions in the major chip making hubs of Hsinchu and Taichung as it battles an islandwide drought, the government said.
