Intended Use: The instrument will be used for multiple objectives including understanding the interplay between structural, magnetic and electromagnetic properties of synthesized magnetic nanostructures, and promoting and improving the ability of implants to integrate into bone and to deliver locally therapeutic agents such as antimicrobials and/or growth factors. The experiments to be conducted will include observations of the nanometer scale morphology of biocompatible/biodegradable hydrogel systems, the determination of how various therapeutic drugs affect the microscopic cellular architecture, determining the limit of feature size that can be fabricated using E-beam lithography from sensor materials, and determining the spatial limits in simultaneous multi-analyte electrochemical sensing. 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: December 12, 2013.

The appeal is taken from an objection by the VerDate Mar<15>2010 20:14 Feb 03, 2014 Jkt 232001 California Coastal Commission to a consistency certification for a highway improvement project partially funded by the Federal Highway Administration. Under the CZMA, the Secretary may override the California Coastal Commission’s objection on grounds that the project is consistent with the objectives or purposes of the CZMA or otherwise necessary in the interest of national security. To make the determination that the proposed activity is ‘‘consistent with the objectives or purposes of the CZMA,’’ the Department must find that: (1) the proposed activity furthers the national interest as articulated in sections 302 or 303 of the CZMA, in a significant or substantial manner; (2) the adverse effects of the proposed activity do not outweigh its contribution to the national interest, when those effects are considered separately or cumulatively; and (3) no reasonable alternative is available that would permit the activity to be conducted in a manner consistent with enforceable policies of the applicable coastal management program. 15 CFR 930.121. To make the determination that the proposed activity is ‘‘necessary in the interest of national security,’’ the Secretary must find that a national defense or other national security interest would be significantly impaired if the activity is not permitted to go forward as proposed. 15 CFR 930.122. II. Request for Public and Federal Agency Comments We encourage the public and interested federal agencies to participate in this appeal by submitting written comments and any relevant materials supporting those comments.
