SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The Department of Commerce (‘‘the Department’’) published in the Federal Register an antidumping duty order on freshwater crawfish tail meat from the People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’) on September 15, 1997. See Notice of Amendment to Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty Order: Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat from the People’s Republic of China, 62 FR 48218 (September 15, 1997). Based on timely requests from various interested parties, the Department initiated an administrative review of the antidumping duty order on freshwater crawfish tail meat from the PRC for the period of September 1, 2003, through August 31, 2004 covering the following companies: China Kingdom International; Qingdao Jinyongxiang Aquatic Foods Co., Ltd. (‘‘JYX Aquatic’’); Qingdao Xiyuan Refrigerate Food Co., Ltd. (‘‘Qingdao Xiyuan’’); Weishan Zhenyu Foodstuff Co., Ltd.; Yancheng Hi–King Agriculture Developing Co., Ltd; and Yancheng Yaou Seafood Co., Ltd. See Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Administrative Reviews, 69 FR 62022 (October 22, 2004). The Department rescinded the reviews of Qingdao Xiyuan and JYX Aquatic on February 11, 2005, and March 31, 2005, respectively. See Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat from the People’s Republic of China: Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 70 FR 7232 (February 11, 2005); and Freshwater Crawfish Tail Meat from the People’s Republic of China: Partial Rescission of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review, 70 FR 16484 (March 31, 2005). Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, (‘‘the Act’’ the Department shall issue the preliminary results of an administrative review within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of the order. The Act further provides, however, that the Department may extend the deadline for completion of the preliminary results of review from 245 to 365 days if it determines that it is not practicable to complete the review within the 245-day time period. See also section 351.213(h)(2) of the Department’s regulations. PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Extension of Time Limits for Preliminary Results The preliminary results are currently due no later than June 2, 2005. The Department finds that it is not practicable to complete the preliminary results of this administrative review within this time limit because it needs additional time to analyze the questionnaire responses, issue appropriate supplemental questionnaires and conduct verifications. In particular, the Department finds it necessary to conduct verification during the production season of freshwater crawfish tail meat, which is May through September. Therefore, in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and section 351.213(h)(2) of the Department’s regulations, the Department is extending the time limit for the completion of these preliminary results until no later than September 30, 2005.

AGENCY: SUMMARY: The purpose of this document is to advise the public that NOAA’s Educational Partnership Program is soliciting proposals to establish a new Cooperative Science Center at an accredited postsecondary minority serving institution (MSI). This Center will be established as a partnership between the institution and NOAA, with the goal of expanding the institution’s training and research capabilities and supporting the development of programs compatible with NOAA’s mission.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Summary Description: NOAA is commitment to the recruitment and retention of employees from underrepresented communities, trained in NOAA-related sciences, to conduct the ongoing mission of the agency. Toward that end, the agency established a program aimed at partnering with Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) that train and graduate students in the areas of atmospheric, oceanic and environmental sciences, and remote sensing. Since approximately 40% of minority students receive their undergraduate degrees at MSIs, direct collaboration with MSIs is, therefore, an effective way to increase the number of minority students trained and graduating with degrees in NOAArelated fields who may become engaged in research and pursue careers compatible with the agency’s mission. Statistics from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Science and Engineering Indicators 2004 Report illustrate that the number of minority students receiving doctoral and master’s degrees in science and engineering for selected years from 1994–2003, continues to be lower than the national average. The NSF report states, for example, that in 2004 (the most recent data available) 26,413 doctoral degrees were granted in science and engineering (which includes earth, atmospheric, and ocean sciences) to U.S. citizens. Of these graduates, 1708 were African American, 1270 were Hispanic, 133 were American Indian/Alaska Native and 1417 were Asian/Pacific Islander. The 2004 NSF E:\FR\FM\31MYN1.SGM 31MYN1
