Court Building, 1099 14th Street, NW.,
Washington, DC.
Docket Number: 05–002.
Applicant: Cornell University, Ithaca,
NY 14853.
Instrument: KB Mirror System.
Manufacturer: Khozu Precision Co.,
Ltd., Japan.
Intended Use: See notice at 70 FR
February 7, 2005.
Comments: None received.
Decision: Approved. No apparatus of
equivalent scientific value to the foreign
apparatus, for such purposes as it is
intended to be used, is being
manufactured in the United States.
Reason: This is a compatible
accessory for an existing instrument
purchased for the use of the applicant.
The accessory is pertinent to the
intended uses and we know of no
domestic accessory which can be
readily adapted for use with the existing
instrument.
Instrument: Electron microscope,
Model H–7600–I.
Manufacturer: Hitachi HighTechnologies Corporation, Japan.
Intended Use: The instrument is
intended to be used to investigate:
(1) The mechanical properties of
intermediate filaments composed of
keratin;
(2) The structure and replication
mechanism of kinoplast DNA;
(3) The basis of bacterial gliding
motility by means of slime expulsion in
certain prokaryotic cells;
(4) The mechanism of membrane
protein delivery to the plasma
membrane in mammalian cells;
(5) Identification of novel genes that
play critical roles in the development of
the retina.

Docket Number: 05–012.
Applicant: University of Chicago, 933
East 56th Street, Chicago, IL 60637.
Instrument: Pattern Selection Trigger.
Manufacturer: Hytec Electronics, Ltd.,
United Kingdom.
Intended Use: The instrument is
intended to be used, in conjunction
with a digital computer system, for a
telescope to study high-energy gammarays of astronomical origin.
Application accepted by
Commissioner of Customs: February 28,
2005.
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), 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,
DC 20230. Applications may be
examined between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m.
in Suite 4100W, U.S. Department of
Commerce, Franklin Court Building,
1099 14th Street, NW., Washington, DC.
Docket Number: 00–011.
Applicant: Johns Hopkins University,
School of Medicine, Microscope
Facility, 725 N. Wolfe Street, Physiology
Building, Room G–4, Baltimore, MD
21205.
Docket Number: 05–013.
Applicant: National Institute of
Standards and Technology.
Instrument: Focused Ion Beam Field
Emission Scanning Electron
Microscope, Model Nova 600 NanoLab.
Manufacturer: FEI Company, The
Netherlands.
Intended Use: The instrument is
intended to allow complex, chemically
heterogeneous materials to be both
synthesized using materials deposition
from gas injection systems, and to be
sectioned and ion milled using a
Gallium ion beam for removal of
material for study of the gross
morphology, crystal structure and
microstructure, chemical composition,
electronic structure, and transport
properties of materials to be measured
on nanometer length scales. The
phenomena of electron scattering, x-ray
generation, beam transport, absorption
and internal fluoresence will be studied
to perform quantitative analyses of
nanoscale materials for numerous
ongoing research projects.

Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The Department of Commerce has
submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35).
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: Southwest Region Permit
Family of Forms—Pacific.
Form Number(s): None.
OMB Approval Number: 0648–0490.
Type of Request: Regular submission.
Burden Hours: 85.
Number of Respondents: 200.
Average Hours per Response: 23
minutes.
Needs and Uses: The permits are
required for persons to participate in
federally-managed fisheries in the
western Pacific region and off the U.S.
West Coast. The Western Pacific Fishery
Management Council has recommended
the National Marine Fisheries Service’s
(NMFS) approval and implementation
of Amendment 11 to the Fishery
Management Plan for the Pelagic
Fisheries of the Western Pacific Region.
Amendment 11 would establish a
limited access permit program for the
American Samoa-based pelagic longline
fishery which necessitates a revised
collection of information. The program
requires information from potential
initial participants and subsequent new
entrants (via permit transfers) in the
fishery. NMFS will use the information
to determine who is eligible for issuance
of American Samoa longline limited
access permits. The fishermen will be
required to use appropriate permit
application forms/supplementary
information sheets provided by NMFS.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; Individuals or
households.
Frequency: Variable.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
OMB Desk Officer: David Rostker,
(202) 395–3897.
Copies of the above information
collection proposal can be obtained by
calling or writing Diana Hynek,
