L. 89-651; 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 filed within 20 days with the Statutory Import Programs Staff, U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, D.C. 20230. Applications may be examined between 8:30 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. in Room 4211, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. Docket Number: 97-038. Applicant: Florida State University, NHMFL, 1800 E. Dirac Drive, Tallahassee, FL 32310. Instrument: EPR W-Band System, Model ELEXSYS. Manufacturer: Bruker Instruments, Germany. Intended Use: The article is intended to be used for studies of the electron paramagnetic resonance spectra related to the environment of unpaired electrons in biological samples (proteins, fat, nucleic acid or whole cells). In addition, the instrument will be used for training graduate students for research in the courses BSC (biological science) 5392 ``Graduate Tutorial'' and BSC 5905 ``Dissertation Research.'' Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs: May 13, 1997. Docket Number: 97-040. Applicant: University of Wisconsin, 750 University Avenue, A. W. Peterson Building, Madison, WI 53706. Instrument: Ti:Sapphire Laser, Model MBR-110. Manufacturer: Microlase Optical Systems, United Kingdom. Intended Use: The article is intended to be used for studies of electron gas-phase atoms and gas-phase molecules with emphasis on rare gas atoms and alkali atoms. Experiments will be conducted to obtain electron impact cross sections with the goals of studying the efficiency of energy transfer in the various inelastic processes and understanding the relevant electron-atom and electron-molecule interactions. Application accepted by Commissioner of Customs: May 20, 1997. Frank W. Creel, Director, Statutory Import Programs Staff. [FR Doc. 97-15603 Filed 6-12-97; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3510-DS-P
