(202)482-1009, AD/CVD Enforcement, Office 9, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC, 20230. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background At the request of both Dixion Brake System (Longkou) Ltd. and Laizhou Wally Automobile Co., Ltd., the Department of Commerce (“the Department”) initiated new shipper reviews of the antidumping duty order on brake rotors from the People's Republic of China for the period April 1, 2004, through September 30, 2004. *See Brake Rotors from the PRC: Initiation of Twelfth New Shipper Antidumping Duty Review* , 69 FR 70632 (December 7, 2004). The preliminary results of this review are currently due no later than May 23, 2005. Extension of Time Limit for Preliminary Results of Review Pursuant to 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”) and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(1), the Department will issue the preliminary results of a new shipper review within 180 days after the date on which the new shipper review was initiated, and issue the final results within 90 days after the date on which the preliminary results were issued. The Department may, however, extend the deadline for completion of the preliminary results of a new shipper review to 300 days if it determines that the case is extraordinarily complicated (19 CFR 351.214(i)(2)). The Department finds that this case is extraordinarily complicated and that the preliminary results of this new shipper review cannot be completed within the statutory time limit of 180 days. Specifically, the information that must be analyzed in order to determine whether the new shippers sales are *bona fide* is voluminous and complicated. Accordingly, the Department is extending the time limit for the completion of the preliminary results of this new shipper review until September 20, 2005, which is 300 days after the date on which the new shipper review was initiated. We intend to issue the final results no later than 90 days after the date of issuance of the preliminary results. This notice is in accordance with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.214(i)(2). Dated: April 25, 2005. Barbara E. Tillman, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.

(202)482-2786. 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. [FR Doc.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 7, 2004, notice was published in the **Federal Register** (69 FR 18357) that a request for a scientific research permit to take marine mammals in the North Atlantic had been submitted by Robert DiGiovanni, Riverhead Foundation for Marine Research and Preservation. On February 24, 2005 notice was published in the **Federal Register** (70 FR 9049) that requests for scientific research permits to take right whales in the North Atlantic had been submitted by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and the Center for Coastal Studies. The requested permits have been issued under the authority of the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1361 *et seq.* ), the Regulations Governing the Taking and Importing of Marine Mammals (50 CFR part 216), the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 *et seq.* ), and the regulations governing the taking, importing, and exporting of endangered and threatened species (50 CFR parts 222-226). The permits authorize harassment of marine mammals during close approaches for aerial and vessel surveys with associated photo-identification and behavioral observations. Permit No. 1036-1744 authorizes harassment of various cetacean and pinniped species in waters off Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia. Permit No. 594-1759 authorizes harassment of northern right whales in waters off Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Alabama. Permit No. 633-1763 authorizes harassment of northern right whales in the Gulf of Maine, Cape Cod Bay, Great South Channel, and Georgia Bight, and the collection and export of sloughed right whale skin. In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 *et seq.* ), an environmental assessment was prepared analyzing the effects of the permitted activities. After a Finding of No Significant Impact, the determination was made that it was not necessary to prepare an environmental impact statement. Issuance of these permits, as required by the ESA, was based on a finding that such permits:

(1)Were applied for in good faith;

(2)will not operate to the disadvantage of such endangered species; and

(3)are consistent with the purposes and policies set forth in section 2 of the ESA. Dated: April 21, 2005. Stephen L. Leathery, Chief, Permits, Conservation and Education Division, Office of Protected Resources, National Marine Fisheries Service. [FR Doc. 05-8604 Filed 4-28-05; 8:45 am]
