The University of Georgia, et al.; Notice of Consolidated
Decision on Applications for Duty-Free Entry of Scientific Instruments
This is a decision consolidated pursuant to Section 6(c) of the
Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Materials Importation Act of 1966
(Pub. L. 89-651, 80 Stat. 897; 15 CFR part 301). Related records can be
viewed between 8:30 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. in Room 4211, U.S. Department of
Commerce, 14th and Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C.
Comments: None received. Decision: Approved. No instrument of
equivalent scientific value to the foreign instruments described below,
for such purposes as each is intended to be used, is being manufactured
in the United States.
Docket Number: 94-092. Applicant: The University of Georgia,
Athens, GA 30602. Instrument: Motion Analysis System, Model ELITEPLUS.
Manufacturer: Bioengineering Technology and Systems, Italy. Intended
Use: See notice at 59 FR 46963, September 13, 1994. Reasons: The
foreign instrument provides: (1) accuracy of 0.1 mm at 280 mm field of
view and (2) compatibility with the 100 Hz data collection rate of
Salira proprietary software. Advice Received From: National Institutes
of Health, September 29, 1994.
Docket Number: 94-095. Applicant: Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory
of Columbia University, Palisades, NY 10964. Instrument: High
Temperature Resistivity Logging Tool. Manufacturer: CSM Associates
Limited, United Kingdom. Intended Use: See notice at 59 FR 48420,
September 21, 1994. Reasons: The foreign instrument provides
measurement of: (1) sediment resistivity, (2) fluid conductivity and
(3) temperative in ocean borehole environments to 350 deg. C at
pressures to 100 Mpa. Advice Received From: Los Alamos National
Laboratory, October 26, 1994.
Docket Number: 94-097. Applicant: University of Vermont,
Burlington, VT 05405. Instrument: Cardiac Monitor, Model Leycom Sigma
5-DF. Manufacturer: Cardio Dynamics, The Netherlands. Intended Use: See
notice at 59 FR 49644, September 29, 1994. Reasons: The foreign
instrument provides: (1) continuous measurement of ventricular blood
volume by means of a conductance catheter and (3) a new 12-electrode
dual field operating mode. Advice Received From: National Institutes of
Health, September 29, 1994 .
Docket Number: 94-101. Applicant: Stanford University, Stanford, CA
94306. Instrument: Reflection High Energy Electron Diffraction System,
Model EK-2035-R. Manufacturer: Staib Instrumente, Germany. Intended
Use: See notice at 59 FR 49645, September 29, 1994. Reasons: The
foreign instrument provides: (1) high beam energy (35 kev), (2)
differential pumping for operation at pressures as high as 10-2
mbar and (3) beam blanking at 200 Hz to minimize damage to grown
materials. Advice Received From: National Institute of Standards and
Technology, June 7, 1994 (Comparable Case).
National Institutes of Health, Los Alamos National Laboratory and
National Institute of Standards and Technology advise that (1) the
capabilities of each of the foreign instruments described above are
pertinent to each applicant's intended purpose and (2) they know of no
domestic instrument or apparatus of equivalent scientific value for the
intended use of each instrument.
We know of no other instrument or apparatus being manufactured in
the United States which is of equivalent scientific value to any of the
foreign instruments.
