The modification clarifies that parties
may request an extension of time limits
before a time limit established under
Part 351 expires, or as otherwise
specified by the Secretary. In general, an
extension request will be considered
untimely if it is filed after the time limit
established under Part 351 expires. For
submissions which are due from
multiple parties simultaneously, an
extension request will be considered
untimely if it is filed after 10:00 a.m. on
the due date. Examples include, but are
not limited to: (1) Case and rebuttal
briefs, filed pursuant to 19 CFR 351.309;
(2) factual information to value factors
under 19 CFR 351.408(c), or to measure
the adequacy of remuneration under 19
CFR 351.511(a)(2), filed pursuant to 19
CFR 351.301(c)(3) and rebuttal,
clarification and correction filed
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.301(c)(3)(iv); (3)
comments concerning the selection of a
surrogate country and surrogate values
and rebuttal; (4) comments concerning
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
data; and (5) quantity and value
questionnaires. Under certain
circumstances, the Department may
elect to specify a different time limit by
which extension requests will be
considered untimely for submissions
which are due from multiple parties
simultaneously. In such a case, the
Department will inform parties in the
letter or memorandum setting forth the
deadline (including a specified time) by
which extension requests must be filed
to be considered timely. This
modification also requires that an
extension request must be made in a
separate, stand-alone submission, and
clarifies the circumstances under which
the Department will grant untimelyfiled requests for the extension of time
limits. These modifications are effective
for all segments initiated on or after
October 21, 2013. Please review the
final rule, available at https://
www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2013-09-20/
html/2013-22853.htm, prior to
submitting factual information in these
segments.
These initiations and this notice are
in accordance with section 751(a) of the
Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)) and 19 CFR
351.221(c)(1)(i).

Instrument: Delay Line Trolley (DLT).
Manufacturer: University of Cambridge/
Cavendish Lab, United Kingdom.
Intended Use: See notice at 80 FR 2914–
15, January 21, 2015. Comments: None
received. Decision: Approved. We know
of no instruments of equivalent
scientific value to the foreign
instruments described below, for such
purposes as this is intended to be used,
that was being manufactured in the
United States at the time of order.
Reasons: The instrument will be used
within the Magdalena Ridge
Observatory Interferometer (MROI) to
equalize path lengths traveled by the
light from a target object, via the
telescopes, to the point where
interference takes place, by acting as a
continuously movable retro-reflector.
Each trolley moves continuously within
an evacuated pipe in order to introduce
the optical path delay appropriate for
the target, time of observation, and
inter-telescope separations in use. For
most of the sky to be accessible, a delay
range approximately equal to the longest
inter-telescope separation must be
available, requiring an unprecedented
monolithic delay line length of almost
200m. The instrument is essentially a
cat’s-eye assembly that is flexuremounted and voice coil actuated on a
motorized wheeled carriage, which runs
directly on the inner surface of the delay
line pipe, not on pre-installed rails. Its
position is precisely measured by a laser
metrology system and computer
controlled so as to introduce the

30APN1

appropriate optical path compensation
as a function of time. The following
specifications are required for the
research: A focus on model-independent
imaging as opposed to astrometric or
precision phase or visibility
measurement, a wavelength of operation
that covers both the visible and near
infrared, between 600 nm and 2400 nm,
accommodation for baseline lengths as
long as 250m, a concern for polarization
fidelity in the image, and a requirement
to reach a limiting group-delay tracking
magnitude of H=14 to allow
observations of extragalactic targets
while tracking on the science object
rather than a nearby reference star.
Docket Number: 14–034. Applicant:
National Institutes of Health, Bethesda,

Direct Detection Camera. Manufacturer:
FEI Company, the Netherlands.
Intended Use: See notice at 80 FR 2914–

received. Decision: Approved. We know
of no instruments of equivalent
scientific value to the foreign
instruments described below, for such
purposes as this is intended to be used,
that was being manufactured in the
United States at the time of order.
Reasons: The instrument will be used in
cryo-electron microscopy experiments,
to visualize biological specimens
suspended in vitreous ice involving
recording electron micrographs of the
highest possible quality and subjecting
them to digital image analysis to elicit
the maximum amount of structural
information and interpretation, taking
into account all pertinent
complimentary data. Sensor
specifications required for this research
include a pixel size of ∼14 mm which
predicates a magnification of ∼100 kx,
optimal performance as measured by
Detective Quantum Efficiency at a
typical dose rate of 10–20 e/pixel/
second, and protection of the sensor
against accidental high-dose exposures
to the microscope’s electron beam.

ACTION: Notice; issuance of an incidental
harassment authorization.
AGENCY:
In accordance with the
regulations implementing the Marine
Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) as
amended, notification is hereby given
that NMFS has issued an incidental
harassment authorization (IHA) to the
Sonoma County Water Agency (SCWA)
to incidentally harass, by Level B
harassment only, three species of
marine mammals during estuary
management activities conducted at the
mouth of the Russian River, Sonoma
County, California.
DATES: This IHA is effective for the
period of one year, from April 21, 2015,
through April 20, 2016.

Laws, Office of Protected Resources,

NMFS’ Environmental Assessment
(2010) and associated Finding of No
Significant Impact, prepared pursuant to

on the effects of Russian River
management activities on salmonids,
prepared pursuant to the Endangered
Species Act, are also available at the
same site.
Background
Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and (D) of the
MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361, et seq.) direct
the Secretary of Commerce to allow,
upon request by U.S. citizens who
engage in a specified activity (other than
commercial fishing) within a specified
area, the incidental, but not intentional,

taking of small numbers of marine
mammals, providing that certain
findings are made and the necessary
prescriptions are established.
The incidental taking of small
numbers of marine mammals may be
allowed only if NMFS (through
authority delegated by the Secretary)
finds that the total taking by the
specified activity during the specified
time period will (i) have a negligible
impact on the species or stock(s) and (ii)
not have an unmitigable adverse impact
on the availability of the species or
stock(s) for subsistence uses (where
relevant). Further, the permissible
methods of taking and requirements
pertaining to the mitigation, monitoring
and reporting of such taking must be set
forth.
The allowance of such incidental
taking under section 101(a)(5)(A), by
harassment, serious injury, death, or a
combination thereof, requires that
regulations be established.
Subsequently, a Letter of Authorization
may be issued pursuant to the
prescriptions established in such
regulations, providing that the level of
taking will be consistent with the
findings made for the total taking
allowable under the specific regulations.
Under section 101(a)(5)(D), NMFS may
authorize such incidental taking by
harassment only, for periods of not more
than one year, pursuant to requirements
and conditions contained within an
IHA. The establishment of these
prescriptions requires notice and
opportunity for public comment.
NMFS has defined ‘‘negligible
impact’’ in 50 CFR 216.103 as ‘‘. . . an
impact resulting from the specified
activity that cannot be reasonably
expected to, and is not reasonably likely
to, adversely affect the species or stock
through effects on annual rates of
recruitment or survival.’’ Except with
respect to certain activities not pertinent
here, section 3(18) of the MMPA defines
‘‘harassment’’ as: ‘‘. . . any act of
pursuit, torment, or annoyance which (i)
has the potential to injure a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild [Level A harassment]; or (ii) has
the potential to disturb a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild by causing disruption of behavioral
patterns, including, but not limited to,
migration, breathing, nursing, breeding,
feeding, or sheltering [Level B
harassment].’’
Summary of Request
On January 21, 2015, we received an
adequate and complete request from
SCWA for authorization of the taking of
marine mammals incidental to Russian
River estuary management activities in
