address for the HVS data is
www.census.gov/hhes/www/housing/
hvs/hvs.html. Several other government
agencies use these data on a continuing
basis, for example, the Bureau of
Economic Analysis uses the HVS data in
calculating consumer expenditures for
housing as a component of the gross
domestic product; the Department of
Housing and Urban Development relies
on the HVS data to measure the
adequacy of the supply of rental and
homeowner units and works with the
White House in measuring
homeownership for minorities. The
National Association of Home Builders,
the National Association of Realtors, the
Federal National Mortgage Association,
the Federal Reserve Board, the Home
Loan Mortgage Corporation, and the
American Federation of Labor-Congress
of Industrial Organizations (AFL–CIO)
are among the many users in the private
sector who routinely use the HVS data
in making policy decisions relating to
the housing market. In addition,
investment firms use the HVS data to
analyze market trends and for economic
forecasting.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: Monthly.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
Legal Authority: Title 13 U.S.C.,

Application 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 filed within 20 days with the
Statutory Import Programs Staff, U.S.
Department of Commerce, 14th and
Constitution Ave., NW., Room 2104,
Washington, DC 20230. Applications
may be examined between 8:30 a.m. and
5 p.m. in Room 2104, U.S. Department
of Commerce.
Docket Number: 08–016. Applicant:
University of Colorado, 572 UCB,
Boulder, CO 80309–0572. Instrument:
Three-Channel Digital Radio Vector
Field Sensor (RVFS). Manufacturer:
Swedish Institute of Space Physics,
Sweden. Intended Use: The instrument
is intended to be used in a scientific
project on the verification of the theory
of multiple scattering of HF signals in
the ionosphere with small-scale
irregularities. The RVFS must have a
capability to work with dipole antennas
of two different lengths (1 m and 3 m)
and a capability to oversample the
output l&Q data. These specifications
enable the instrument to operate in both
mobile-mount and stationary
conditions. Application accepted by
Commissioner of Customs: April 30,
2008.
Docket Number: 08–017. Applicant:
City College of the City University of
New York, 160 Convent Ave., New
York, NY 10031. Instrument:
Ultrabroadband. Ti: Sapphire Laser
Model Rainbow-DFG. Manufacturer:
Femtolasers, Inc., Austria. Intended Use:
The instrument will be used to develop
experimental tools necessary to
characterize ultrafast phenomena. A
unique characteristic of this instrument
is that it must generate optical pulses of
less than 7 femtoseconds.
The amplifier system will be coupled
with a 6 femtosecond laser and streak
camera system to provide high spatial,
high temporal and high spectral
resolution for characterization,
tunneling and carrier/phonon dynamics
studies for nanoscale semiconductor

quantum structures and devises.
Application accepted by Commissioner
of Customs: April 24, 2008.
Docket Number: 08–018. Applicant:
Washington University, One Brookings
Drive, St. Louis, MO 63130. Instrument:
Modular Hot Cell—COMECER Model
MIP1–1P–1350. Manufacturer:
COMECER, Italy. Intended Use: The
instrument will be used to evaluate the
kinetics, biodistribution stability,
dosimetry and safety of PET
radiopharmaceuticals i.e., [18F]FHBG.
The hot cell MIP1350 will house an
automated chemistry module used to
synthesize [18F]FHBG. Unique features
of this instrument include a sealed
enclosure independent of the door as
well as stainless steel enclosures.
Application accepted by Commissioner
of Customs: April 29, 2008.
