Application(s) for Duty-Free Entry of Scientific Instruments

    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), we invite comments 
on the question of 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.
    Comments must comply with 15 CFR 301.5(a)(3) and (4) of the 
regulations and be postmarked on or before June 12, 2017. Address 
written comments to Statutory Import Programs Staff, Room 3720, U.S. 
Department of Commerce, Washington, DC 20230. Applications may be 
examined between 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. at the U.S. Department of 
Commerce in Room 3720.
    Docket Number: 16-024. Applicant: The Hormel Institute, 801 16th 
Avenue NE., Austin, MN 55912. Instrument: Electron Microscope. 
Manufacturer: FEI Company, the Netherlands. Intended Use: The 
instrument will be used to study biological samples such as human and 
animal normal and cancer cells, as well as to study protein-protein 
interactions and protein-compounds interactions. Justification for 
Duty-Free Entry: There are no instruments of the same general category 
manufactured in the United States. Application accepted by Commissioner 
of Customs: March 17, 2017.
    Docket Number: 16-025. Applicant: The Hormel Institute, 801 16th 
Avenue NE., Austin, MN 55912. Instrument: Electron Microscope. 
Manufacturer: FEI Company, Czech Republic. Intended Use: The instrument 
will be used to study biological samples such as human and animal 
normal and cancer cells, as well as to study protein-protein 
interactions and protein-compounds interactions. Justification for 
Duty-Free Entry: There are no instruments of the same general category 
manufactured in the United States. Application accepted by Commissioner 
of Customs: March 17, 2017.
    Docket Number: 17-003. Applicant: Arizona State University, 550 E. 
Tyler Mall, PSF 470, Tempe, AZ 85287-1504. Instrument: Laser-
lithography system for 3-dimensional microstructuring and 
nanostructuring. Manufacturer: Nanoscribe, Germany. Intended Use: The 
instrument will be used to develop new methods of determining the 
atomic

structure of proteins, and to make movies of molecular machines at 
work. It is capable of fabricating structures as small as 0.2 microns 
on a side, which are not limited to a planar geometry, using nozzles 
whose overall size is a few millimeters, with finest detail of 0.5 
microns. Justification for Duty-Free Entry: There are no instruments of 
the same general category manufactured in the United States. 
Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs: March 17, 2017.
    Docket Number: 17-004. Applicant: Trustees of Tufts College, 200 
Boston Avenue, Suite 2600, Medford, MA 02155-4284. Instrument: 
Microscopy Image Acquisition Unit. Manufacturer: Phaseview, France. 
Intended Use: The instrument will be used to produce 3D images of 
objects in regular light microscopy, for example, biological cells, the 
surface of teeth, and polymers. The unique and required features 
include an andor camera connected to piezo driving optical objective, 
3-D imaging device that uses a liquid-crystal focusing technology and 
so-called Ray technology to record 3-D information in one shot, and 
very fast mechanical noise-free recording of 3-D images of surfaces and 
cells. Justification for Duty-Free Entry: There are no instruments of 
the same general category manufactured in the United States. 
Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs: April 3, 2017.
    Docket Number: 17-005. Applicant: Boston University, 110 Cummington 
Mall, ENG 107, Boston, MA 02215. Instrument: Positioner for a prototype 
Schwarzchild Couder Telescope (pSCT). Manufacturer: DESY-
DeutchesElektronen-Synchrotron, Germany. Intended Use: The instrument 
will be used in material science research, using a fiber laser to 
induce two-photon polymerization in the target material. Through 
sophisticated coordination of an X-Y stage and a galvo-scanner, a 
structure designed in a standard CAD tool can be transferred to a cube 
of photosensitive material in a matter of minutes. The instrument is 
capable of lateral feature sizes for 3D structures of less than 200 nm, 
and less than 150 nm for 2D structures. The instrument is able to 
fabricate structures up to 300 [mu]m height with constant high 
resolution and quality independent of the structure height by means of 
a dip-in-laser lithography technique. Justification for Duty-Free 
Entry: There are no instruments of the same general category 
manufactured in the United States. Application accepted by Commissioner 
of Customs: April 24, 2017.
    Docket Number: 17-006. Applicant: The Association of Universities 
for Research in Astronomy, 3665 Discovery Drive, Boulder, CO 80303. 
Instrument: M1 Cell Assembly. Manufacturer: Advanced Mechanical & 
Optical Systems, NA, Belgium. Intended Use: The instrument will be used 
to study the highly dynamic magnetic fields and plasmas throughout the 
solar atmosphere. It will provide the necessary means to support, shape 
and cool the DKIST primary mirror, without which the primary mirror 
would not meet the stringent performance characteristics for conducting 
the experiments. The instrument will be able to accurately adjust the 
M1 Mirror optical surface by applying arbitrary Zernike correction 
terms to correct for telescope errors in addition to polishing errors 
and M1 Cell Assembly induced errors. After optics correction, the total 
allowed M1 Mirror optical surface figure error from all sources other 
than polishing residuals shall be less than 45 nm RMS after subtraction 
of tip tilt and focus. Justification for Duty-Free Entry: There are no 
instruments of the same general category manufactured in the United 
States. Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs: April 24, 
2017.
    Docket Number: 17-007. Applicant: The Association of Universities 
for Research in Astronomy, 3665 Discovery Drive, Boulder, CO 80303. 
Instrument: Coating and Cleaning Equipment for the Daniel K. Inouye 
Solar Telescope. Manufacturer: Advanced Mechanical & Optical Systems, 
NA, Belgium. Intended Use: The instrument will be used to study the 
highly dynamic magnetic fields and plasmas throughout the solar 
atmosphere. The M1 Wash Platform shall be capable of capturing washing 
effluent and directing it into a containment system, which shall 
include pumping capacity to move the effluent from the containment 
system into AURA supplied containers, as well as protect effluent from 
contaminating the bottom surface of the M1 Mirror or any other surface. 
Justification for Duty-Free Entry: There are no instruments of the same 
general category manufactured in the United States. Application 
accepted by Commissioner of Customs: April 24, 2017.
    Docket Number: 17-008. Applicant: UChicago Argonne, 9700 South Cass 
Avenue, Lemont, IL 60439. Instrument: Multiphoton 3D Lithography 
System. Manufacturer: Nanoscribe, Germany. Intended Use: The instrument 
will be used for rapid fabrication and prototyping of micro and nano 
sized parts by the means of novel technology, two-photon polymerization 
of UV-curable photoresists. The key and unique features of the 
instrument include the highest resolution (150 nanometers) among all 
commercially available 3D printers and ability to deposit a wide 
variety of materials template by transparent polymers. The high 
printing resolution enables sub-micron feature sizes and allows a 
design freedom for very complex parts with internal features otherwise 
impossible to produce. Justification for Duty-Free Entry: There are no 
instruments of the same general category manufactured in the United 
States. Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs: April 24, 
2017.
