## Abstract

This document delays the effective date for aflatoxin, size and quality requirements established under Marketing Order No. 983 (order). The order regulates the handling of pistachios produced in California. Sections 983.38 through 983.46 of the order establish maximum aflatoxin along with minimum size and quality requirements for California pistachios. The delayed effective date was requested by members of the California pistachio industry. Postponing the effective date of the regulations will provide pistachio handlers with preparation time needed to meet the aflatoxin, size and quality requirements of the order.
