SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On March 11, 1986, the Department of Commerce (the Department)

Countervailing Duty Determination and Countervailing Duty Order: In-

Pistachios). On March 1, 2005, the Department published in the Federal

countervailing duty order on in-shell pistachios from Iran with respect

we published in the Federal Register the initiation of this 
countervailing duty administrative review (70 FR 20862). The
