Science Center, San Antonio, TX 78229. Instrument: Electron Microscope. 
Manufacturer: JEOL Ltd., Japan. Intended Use: See notice at 80 FR 
31890, June 4, 2015.
    Pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Educational, Scientific and 
Cultural Materials Importation Act of 1966 (Pub. L. 89-651; as amended 
by Pub. L. 106-36; 80 Stat. 897; 15 CFR part 301), the Department of 
Commerce and the Department of Homeland Security determine, inter alia, 
whether instruments of equivalent scientific value, for the purposes 
for which the instruments shown below are intended to be used, are 
being manufactured in the United States as well as whether the 
instrument or apparatus is for the exclusive use of the applicant 
institution and is not intended to be used for commercial purposes.
    On May 29, 2015, Texas University Health Science Center officials 
notified the Department that they wished to withdraw the above-
referenced application for duty-free entry of a scientific instrument. 
They noted that the instrument will be cleared through Customs with 
duty paid by the vendor in order to be used at a trade show for 
demonstrations. As noted in the regulations at section 301.5(g), the 
Department of Commerce shall discontinue processing an application when 
a request has been made by the applicant to withdraw the application. 
Therefore, the Department of Commerce has discontinued the processing 
of this application, in accordance with section 301.5(g) of the 
regulations. See 15 CFR 301.5(g).
