SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

TIME LIMITS:

Background

    On October 7, 1986, the Department of Commerce (the Department) 
published in the Federal Register the countervailing duty order on 
roasted in-shell pistachios from the Islamic Republic of Iran (Iran) 
(51 FR 35679). On October 1, 2004, the Department published in the 
Federal Register a notice of opportunity to request an administrative 
review of the countervailing duty order on roasted in-shell pistachios 
from Iran (69 FR 58889). As a result of a request properly filed by 
Tehran Negah Nima Trading Company, Inc. (Nima) on October 27, 2004, we 
are conducting an administrative review of the countervailing duty 
order on roasted in-shell pistachios from Iran with respect to Nima. On 
November 19, 2004, we published in the Federal Register the initiation 
of this countervailing duty administrative review (69 FR 67701). The 
preliminary results are currently due no later than July 5, 2005.

Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of Review

    Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the 
Act), requires the Department to issue preliminary results within 245 
days after the last day of the anniversary month of an order for which 
a review is requested. However, if it is not practicable to complete 
the preliminary results of review within this time period, section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the Department to extend the time limit 
for the preliminary results to a maximum of 365 days.
    We determine that this review is extraordinarily complicated 
because there are a large number of programs, including new subsidy 
programs, to be considered and analyzed by the Department. In order to 
complete our analysis, we require additional and/or clarifying 
information. As a result, it is not practicable to complete the 
preliminary results of this review within the original time limits. 
Therefore, the Department is extending the time limits for completion 
of the preliminary results until no later than November 2, 2005, which 
is 365 days from the last day of the anniversary month of the date of 
publication of the order. The deadline for the final results of review 
continues to be 120 days after the publication of the preliminary 
results.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

    Dated: April 25, 2005.
Barbara E. Tillman,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
