SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-79275; File No. SR-NYSEArca-2016-146]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE Arca, Inc.; Notice of Filing
and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Temporarily
Widen Price Collar Thresholds for the Core Open Auction and Trading
Halt Auctions

November 9, 2016.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act''),\2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that on November 9, 2016, NYSE Arca, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or
``NYSE Arca'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II
below, which Items have been prepared by the self-regulatory
organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 15 U.S.C. 78a.
    \3\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to temporarily widen price collar thresholds
for the Core Open Auction and Trading Halt Auctions, which would be
operative on November 9, 2016 only. The proposed rule change is
available on the Exchange's Web site at www.nyse.com, at the principal
office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization
included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the
proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of those statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most
significant parts of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to temporarily widen price collar thresholds
for the Core Open Auction and Trading Halt Auctions, which would be
operative for November 9, 2016 only.
    On November 8, 2016, the United States held an election to decide,
among other things, the next President of the United States. This
election result has caused market volatility. This spike in market
volatility has also impacted the pricing of Exchange Traded Products
(``ETP''), the majority of which are listed on the Exchange.
    Because of the level of market volatility, the Exchange believes
that widening the Auction Collars for the Core Open Auction and Trading
Halt Auctions for November 9, 2016 only would assist the Exchange in
conducting fair and orderly auctions.
    As set forth in Rule 7.35(a)(10), the price collar thresholds for
the Core Open Auction and Trading Halt Auctions are currently set at
10% for securities with an Auction Reference Price of $25.00 or less,
5% for securities with an Auction Reference Price greater than $25.00
but less than or equal to $50.00, and 3% for securities with an Auction
Reference Price greater than $50.00.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Auction Reference Price for the Core Open Auction is the
midpoint of the Auction NBBO or, if the Auction NBBO is locked, the
locked price. If there is no Auction NBBO, the prior trading day's
Official Closing Price. The Auction Reference Price for the Trading
Halt Auction is the last consolidated round-lot price of that
trading day, and if none, the prior trading day's Official Closing
Price. See NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.35(a)(8).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to apply Auction Collars of 10% for all
Auction-Eligible Securities,\5\ regardless of the Auction Reference
Price. The Exchange believes that for securities priced greater than
$25.00, the proposed wider price collar threshold will allow for
additional price movements that is expected because of the volatility
in the market, while continuing to prevent auctions from occurring at
prices significantly away from the applicable Auction Reference Price.
The proposed 10% price collar threshold for the Core Open Auction is
the same as currently

used by the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (``Nasdaq'') for its opening
crosses.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ For the Core Open Auction, Auction-Eligible Securities are
all securities for which the Exchange is the primary listing market
and UTP Securities designated by the Exchange. For the Trading Halt
Auction, Auction-Eligible Securities are securities for which the
Exchange is the primary listing market. See NYSE Arca Equities Rule
7.35(a)(1)(A) and (B).
    \6\ See Nasdaq Rule 4752(d)(2)(E) and http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/content/productsservices/trading/crosses/openclose_faqs.pdf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the
Act,\7\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of
the Act,\8\ in particular, in that it is designed to prevent fraudulent
and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with
persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, and to
remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open
market and a national market system, and in general, to protect
investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In particular, the Exchange believes that the impact of the results
of the presidential election on November 8, 2016 has resulted in global
market volatility and the U.S. ETP market is not immune. In response to
this market volatility, the Exchange believes that it would promote the
protection of investors and the public interest to temporarily widen
the price collar thresholds for the Core Open Auction and Trading Halt
Auctions on November 9, 2016 only because it would promote fair and
orderly auctions. The Exchange further believes that widening the price
collar thresholds would remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism
of a national market system because it is designed to allow for greater
price movement, while at the same time preventing auction trades from
occurring at prices significantly away from the applicable Auction
Reference Price. Accordingly, investors would be protected from
executions significantly away from the last sale in a security or other
applicable reference price, but natural price fluctuations resulting
from the market volatility would be permitted. In addition, the
Exchange believes that widening the Auction Collars could reduce the
possibility of securities triggering multiple trading pauses under the
Regulation NMS Plan to Address Market Volatility.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change would
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed rule change is
not designed to address any competitive issues but rather is designed
to ensure a fair and orderly market by temporarily widening the price
collar thresholds for the Core Open Auction and Trading Halt Auctions
on a trading day with market volatility due to the results of the
presidential election, In addition, the proposed rule change is
intended to be in effect for November 9, 2016 only to respond to unique
events relating to U.S. presidential election and therefore will not
create a burden on competition.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

 III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    Because the proposed rule change does not (i) significantly affect
the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any
significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative for 30
days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the
Commission may designate, it has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \9\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). The Exchange has requested that the
Commission waive the requirement that the Exchange provide the
Commission written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule
change, along with a brief description and the text of the proposed
rule change, at least five business days prior to the date on which
the Exchange filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii). The Commission hereby grants this request.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6) under the
Act \11\ normally does not become operative for 30 days after the date
of its filing. However, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) \12\ permits the
Commission to designate a shorter time if such action is consistent
with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange
has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that
the proposal may become operative immediately upon filing. The Exchange
stated that waiver of the operative delay would allow the Exchange to
immediately implement the proposed rule change, thereby promoting the
operation of a fair and orderly market on a day with market volatility
due to the U.S. presidential election. The Commission believes the
waiver of the operative delay is consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest. Therefore, the Commission hereby
waives the operative delay and designates the proposal operative upon
filing.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \12\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \13\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,
the Commission has also considered the proposed rule's impact on
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or
disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to proposes to amend its rules to reflect the
merger of Archipelago Holdings, Inc. (``Archipelago Holdings''), an
intermediate holding company, into and with NYSE Group, Inc. (``NYSE
Group''), thereby eliminating Archipelago Holdings from the ownership
structure of the Exchange. The text of the proposed rule change is
available on the Exchange's Web site at www.nyse.com, at the principal
office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization
included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the
proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of those statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most
significant parts of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend its rules to reflect the merger of
Archipelago Holdings, an intermediate holding company, into and with
NYSE Group, thereby eliminating Archipelago Holdings from the ownership
structure of the Exchange.
    Currently, NYSE Arca Holdings owns 100% of the equity interest of
the Exchange. Archipelago Holdings owns 100% of the equity interest of
NYSE Arca Holdings, and NYSE Group owns 100% of the equity interest of
Archipelago Holdings. NYSE Euronext owns 100% of the equity interest of
NYSE Group.
    NYSE Euronext intends to merge Archipelago Holdings with and into
NYSE Group, effective following

approval of this proposed rule change. The reason for the merger is to
eliminate an unnecessary intermediate holding company. Following the
merger, the Exchange would continue to be 100% owned by NYSE Arca
Holdings, which in turn would be 100% owned by NYSE Group, which in
turn would be 100% owned by NYSE Euronext.
    The Certificate imposes certain ownership and voting restrictions
on the shares of NYSE Arca Holdings. Specifically, Article 9, Section
1(b)(i)(B) of the Certificate provides that for so long as NYSE Arca
Holdings directly or indirectly controls the Exchange, no Person either
alone or together with its Related Persons,\3\ may own, directly or
indirectly, of record or beneficially shares of the capital stock
(whether common or preferred stock) of NYSE Arca Holdings constituting
more than 40% of the outstanding shares of any class of capital stock
of NYSE Arca Holdings unless the Board of Directors of NYSE Arca
Holdings (the ``Board'') has adopted an amendment to the NYSE Arca
Holdings Bylaws (the ``Bylaws'') waiving such a restriction. In
connection with such amendment, the Board must adopt resolutions
stating that such amendment will not impair the ability of the Exchange
to carry out its functions and responsibilities under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the ``Act''), and the rules
thereunder; is otherwise in the best interests of NYSE Arca Holdings,
its stockholders, and the Exchange; and will not impair the ability of
the Commission to enforce the Act. Such amendment is not effective
until approved by the Commission. The Board also must find that no such
Person or Related Person is subject to a statutory disqualification
under Section 3(a)(39) of the Act. Similarly, Article 9, Section 1(c)
of the Certificate provides that no Person, either alone or together
with its Related Persons, may directly or indirectly vote more than 20%
of the shares of NYSE Arca Holdings unless the Board adopts an
amendment to its Bylaws waiving such a restriction and, in connection
with such amendment, adopts resolutions and makes a determination with
respect to statutory disqualification substantially the same as those
described above for the ownership restriction. Article 9, Section 4 of
the Certificate provides certain exceptions to these ownership and
voting restrictions for Archipelago Holdings.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The terms ``Person'' and ``Related Persons'' are defined in
the Certificate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to amend the Bylaws of NYSE Arca Holdings as
required by the Certificate; make further amendments to the
Certificate, Bylaws, and other rules that would reflect the elimination
of Archipelago Holdings from the Exchange's ownership structure; and
delete duplicative or obsolete text. The proposed rule change otherwise
would have no substantive impact on other rules of the Exchange,
including those concerning the voting and ownership restrictions that
currently apply to the Exchange and its affiliates.\4\ The Board has
adopted resolutions approving the proposed changes.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 55294 (Feb. 14,
2007), 72 FR 8046 (Feb. 22, 2007) (SR-NYSEArca-2007-05); see also
Securities Exchange Act Release No. 55293 (Feb. 14, 2007), 72 FR
8033 (Feb. 22, 2007) (SR-NYSE-2006-120).
    \5\ See Exhibit 5F.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    First, the Exchange proposes to replace references to Archipelago
Holdings in Article 9, Section 4 of the Certificate with references to
NYSE Group. In addition, the Exchange proposes to delete the last
sentence of that Section, which relates to certain voting and ownership
restrictions that were put in place when the Exchange combined with the
New York Stock Exchange in 2005 but have been superseded by other
requirements.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See supra note 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Second, the Exchange proposes to amend the Bylaws by adding a new
Article 11 that sets forth the waiver of the ownership and voting
restrictions, as required by the Certificate, solely for purposes of
the contemplated merger. The Exchange also proposes to amend the Bylaws
to change references to the Pacific Exchange, Inc. to NYSE Arca, Inc.;
change references to PCX Holdings, Inc. to NYSE Arca Holdings; and
delete Section 6.07, which contains an obsolete reference to trading in
minimum lots.
    Third, the Exchange proposes to delete NYSE Arca Options Rule
1.1(cc) and (gg), which set forth the definitions for Archipelago
Holdings and Related Person, and to delete NYSE Arca Options Rule 3.4,
which sets forth ownership and voting restrictions for Archipelago
Holdings. Upon the elimination of Archipelago Holdings, NYSE Group
would be the next holding company, and voting and ownership
restrictions are currently set forth in its Second Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation of NYSE Group, Inc. (``NYSE Group
Certificate'') in Article IV, Section 4(b). The term Related Person is
not otherwise used in the NYSE Arca Options Rules.
    Fourth, NYSE Arca Equities Rule 14.3(b) provides that all officers
and directors of Archipelago Holdings shall be deemed to be officers
and directors of the Exchange and NYSE Arca Equities for purposes of,
and subject to oversight pursuant to, the Act. NYSE Arca Equities Rule
14.3(d) provides that Archipelago Holdings must maintain all books and
records related to the Exchange within the United States. The Exchange
proposes to delete this text and make a conforming change to NYSE Arca
Equities Rule 14.3(c). Comparable provisions are already contained in
NYSE Group's governing documents. Under Article IX of the NYSE Group
Certificate, NYSE Group's directors and officers already are subject to
the jurisdiction of the Commission, and under Article X, NYSE Group's
books and records relating to the Exchange must be maintained within
the United States.
    Fifth, NYSE Arca Equities Rule 14.3(a), (e), and (f) contain
references to Archipelago Securities, L.L.C. for which a short form,
``Archipelago,'' is used. For the avoidance of confusion, the Exchange
proposes to amend that reference to be ``Arca Securities,'' which is
the short form used for Archipelago Securities, L.L.C. in NYSE Arca
Equities Rule 7.45(c).
    Finally, the Exchange proposes to delete in its entirety the text
of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws
of Archipelago Holdings because the company will no longer exist upon
consummation of the merger and as such these documents will no longer
be rules of the Exchange.
2. Statutory Basis
    The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the
Act,\7\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of
the Act,\8\ in particular, in that it is designed to prevent fraudulent
and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with
persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, and to
remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open
market and a national market system. Specifically, the proposed rule
change would result in the Exchange's rules correctly reflecting its
ownership structure without having any substantive impact on the
Exchange's rules, including those concerning the voting and ownership
restrictions that currently apply to the Exchange and its affiliates.

Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

[Project No. 2100-185]

California Department of Water Resources; Notice of Availability
of Final Environmental Assessment

    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission)
regulations, 18 CFR part 380, the Office of Energy Projects has
reviewed the application for an amendment of the license for the
Feather River Hydroelectric Project, located on the Feather River in
Butte County, and has prepared a final Environmental Assessment (FEA)
for the project. The project occupies federal lands administered by the
U.S. Forest Service and U.S. Bureau of Land Management.
    The FEA contains the staff's analysis of the environmental effects
of the proposed amendment and concludes that approving the amendment
would not constitute a major federal action that would significantly
affect the quality of the human environment.
    The Commission provides all interested persons with an opportunity
to view and/or print the EA via the internet through the Commission's
Home Page (http://www.ferc.gov) using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the
docket number, excluding the last three digits in the docket number
