Stanford University, et al.; 

Application(s) 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 postmarked on or before November 

21, 2023. Address written comments to 

Statutory Import Programs Staff, Room 

3720, U.S. Department of Commerce, 

Washington, DC 20230. Please also 

email a copy of those comments to 

Dianne.Hanshaw@trade.gov. 

Docket Number: 23–014. Applicant: 

Stanford University, Department of 

Neurosurgery, Ivan Soltesz Laboratory, 

1201 Welch Road, Stanford, CA 94305. 

Instrument: 50 mW Fiber-coupled DPSS 

473nm blue lasers (x5). Manufacturer: 

Shanghai Laser & Optics Century Co., 

Ltd., China. Intended Use: These lasers 

will be used to control the activity of 

neuronal populations in the brain of 

mice in order to study how altering the 

activity of specific neurons can lead to 

changes in mouse behavior and/or the 

emergence of pathological activity in the 

brain. Specifically, mice will be 

genetically induced to express 

particular optogenetic receptors in 

neuronal populations in the brain. 

These lasers will be used to deliver light 

into the brain via implanted fiberoptic 

cannula. The receptors, when activated 

by light, cause an increase in the 

activity of the neurons in which they are 

expressed. Lasers will be controlled 

through an external controller in order 

to only turn on in response to specific 

behaviors detected in the mouse. The 

goal of these studies is to identify 

specific populations of neurons 

responsible for the emergence of various 

behaviors and brain states. These 

insights will enable the identification of 

neuronal targets for future therapeutic 

intervention to treat various 

neurological disorders. Justification for 

Duty-Free Entry: According to the 

applicant, there are no instruments of 

the same general category manufactured 

in the United States. Application 

accepted by Commissioner of Customs, 

April 10, 2023. 

Docket Number: 23–015. Applicant: 

University of Connecticut, 3107 

Horsebarn Hill Road, Unit 4210, Storrs, 

CT 06269. Instrument: Swim Tunnel 

Respirometry Systems and Vertical 

Resting Respirometry Systems. 

Manufacturer: Loligo Systems, 

Denmark. Intended Use: Respirometry 

refers to the study of an organism’s 

metabolic rates. For this research, water 

bath respirometry systems will be used 

to measure how the metabolic rates of 

small-bodied fish and bivalves (oysters, 

mussels, clams, etc.,) are influenced by 

the different environmental conditions 

including temperature change and the 

presence of chemical stressors such as 

contaminants. This scientific equipment 

order involves two complete swim 

tunnel respirometry systems (1,500 mL 

chamber size for small-bodied fish 

species) and four vertical respirometry 

chambers (bivalve species) which allow 

for the measure of an organism’s 

metabolic rate by measuring oxygen 

consumption over time. This research 

falls under the broader scientific area of 

study known as organismal 

bioenergetics. The order is broken down 

into component parts (for example, 

chambers, pumps, tubing, temperature 

controls) which together comprise the 

complete respirometry systems. 

Justification for Duty-Free Entry: 

According to the applicant, there are no 

instruments of the same general 

category manufactured in the United 

States. Application accepted by 

Commissioner of Customs, April 22, 

2023.

Initiation of Five-Year (Sunset) 

Reviews 

AGENCY: Enforcement and Compliance, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), the 

U.S. Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) is automatically initiating 

the five-year reviews (Sunset Reviews) 

of the antidumping duty and 

countervailing duty (AD/CVD) order(s) 

and suspended investigation(s) listed 

below. The U.S. International Trade 

Commission (ITC) is publishing 

concurrently with this notice its notice 

of institution of five-year reviews which 

covers the same order(s) and suspended 

investigation(s). 

DATES: Applicable November 1, 2023. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Commerce official identified in the 

‘‘Initiation of Review’’ section below at 

AD/CVD Operations, Enforcement and 

Compliance, International Trade 

Administration, U.S. Department of 

Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue 

NW, Washington, DC 20230. For 

information from the ITC, contact Mary 

Messer, Office of Investigations, U.S.
