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 (Public Law 89-651, as 
amended by Public Law 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 (Insert date 20 days after 
publication in the Federal Register). 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: 18-006. Applicant: Fermi Research Alliance, LLC., 
2000 East Wilson Street, Batavia, IL 60510. Instrument: Short Baseline 
Near Detector (SBND) Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC). 
Manufacturer: The Scientific Facilities Research Council (STFC), United 
Kingdom. Intended Use: The instrument will be used for a basic 
scientific research project that will study neurtrinos, a type of 
elementary particle. There are three known types of neutrinos in the 
universe, although there could be more that have not yet been observed. 
The phenomena to be studied are the number of neutrino types and 
interaction cross-sections for the currently known neutrino types. Two 
detectors are required to perform the neutrino oscillation studies: The 
Short Baseline Near Detector (SBND) is one of these detectors. The 
primary objective of the SBN program is to look for evidence of 
neutrino oscillations, over distances of 1 kilometer or less, and if 
found to measure the oscillation parameters. The SBND TPC is a complex 
and unique instrument. 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: July 13, 2018.
    Docket Number: 18-008. Applicant: Lawrence Berkeley National 
Laboratory, One Cyclotron Road, Berkeley, CA 94720. Instrument: In 
Vacuum Insertion Device (aka Undulator). Manufacturer: Hitachi Metals 
America, LLC, Japan. Intended Use: The instrument will be installed in 
Sector 2.0 of the Advanced Light Source (ALS) facility at Lawrence 
Berkeley Laboratory, for use as a high brightness beamline source for 
the sector. Sector 2.0 of the ALS is dedicated to the study and 
analysis of protein crystallography. The objectives pursued are to 
determine the atomic-resolution, three-dimensional structures of 
proteins and nucleic acids-the building blocks of life-as well as 
complexes of these molecules, the interactions of which give rise to 
biological processes. 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: September 11, 
2018.
