Difenacoum; Notice of Receipt of Requests to Voluntarily Cancel
Certain Pesticide Registrations

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA is issuing a notice of receipt of requests
by the registrant to voluntarily cancel its registrations of products
containing the pesticide difenacoum. The requests would terminate the
last difenacoum products registered for use in the United States. EPA
intends to grant these requests at the close of the comment period for
this announcement unless the Agency receives substantive comments
within the comment period that would merit its further review of the
requests, or unless the registrant withdraws its requests. If these
requests are granted, any sale, distribution, or use of products listed
in this notice will be permitted after the registration has been
cancelled only if such sale, distribution, or use is consistent with
the terms as described in the final order.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before July 16, 2018.

II. Background on the Receipt of Requests To Cancel Registrations

    This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from registrant
Woodstream Corporation to cancel all their difenacoum product
registrations. Difenacoum is a second generation anticoagulant
rodenticide used in and around homes, buildings, and in commercial
transportation vehicles. It is formulated as ready-to-use pelleted bait
to control rats and mice. In letters dated October 19, 2017 and April
4, 2018, Woodstream Corporation requested EPA to cancel the pesticide
product registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit III. They also
requested that the timeframe for the existing stocks provisions be two
years from the date of the 90-day response to the GDCI, i.e., to
October 18, 2019. (The 90-day response to the DCI is dated October 19,
2017, where the registrant requested to cancel EPA Registration Nos.
36488-66 and 47629-12. They followed this up with a request dated April
4, 2018, to cancel the rest of the registrations identified in Table 1
of Unit III.) The registrant does not expect any significant adverse
effects to public health or the environment as a result. The
registrant's request will terminate the last difenacoum products
registered in the United States.

III. What action is the Agency taking?

    This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from a registrant
to cancel all difenacoum product registrations. The affected products
and the registrant making the requests are identified in Tables 1 and 2
of this unit.
    Unless a request is withdrawn by the registrant or if the Agency
determines that there are substantive comments that warrant further
review of this request, EPA intends to issue an order canceling the
affected registrations.

IV. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?

    Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)) provides that a
registrant of a pesticide product may at any time request that any of
its pesticide registrations be canceled or amended to terminate one or
more uses. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request,
EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such request in the Federal
Register.
    Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)(B)) requires that
before acting on a request for voluntary cancellation, EPA must provide
a 30-day public comment period on the request for voluntary
cancellation or use termination. In addition, FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(C)
(7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)(C)) requires that EPA provide a 180-day comment
period on a request for voluntary cancellation or termination of any
minor agricultural use before granting the request, unless:
    1. The registrants request a waiver of the comment period, or
    2. The EPA Administrator determines that continued use of the
pesticide would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment.
    Since difenacoum is not registered for minor agricultural use, the
provision for a 180-day comment period does not apply. Accordingly, EPA
will provide a 30-day comment period on the proposed requests.

V. Procedures for Withdrawal of Requests

    Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for product
cancellation or use deletion should submit the withdrawal in writing to
the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If the
products have been subject to a previous cancellation action, the
effective date of cancellation and all other provisions of any earlier
cancellation action are controlling.

VI. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks

    Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products
that are currently in the United States and that were packaged,
labeled, and released for shipment prior to the effective date of the
action. If the requests for voluntary cancellation are granted, the
Agency intends to publish the cancellation order in the Federal
Register.
    In any order issued in response to these requests for cancellation
of product registrations, EPA proposes to include the following
provisions for the treatment of any existing stocks of the products
listed in Table 1 of Unit III.
    For these voluntary product cancellations, the registrant will be
permitted to sell and distribute existing stocks of voluntarily
canceled products until October 18, 2019, which is two years from the
date of the 90-day response to the GDCI, as requested by the
registrant. Thereafter, the registrant will be prohibited from selling
or distributing the products identified in Table 1 of Unit III., except
for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for
proper disposal.
    Persons other than the registrant may sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks of canceled products until supplies are exhausted,
provided that such sale, distribution, or use is consistent with the
terms of the previously approved labeling on, or that accompanied, the
canceled products.

    Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-90957; File No. SR-CboeBZX-2021-012]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc.; Notice of
Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Expand
the Annual Listing Fee Cap for Outcome Strategy ETPs To Include Series
Having Returns Based on Two or More Reference Indexes

January 21, 2021.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on January 13, 2021, Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or
``BZX'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II,
and III below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. 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\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or ``BZX'') is filing
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') a proposed
rule change to amend the fees applicable to securities listed on the
Exchange, which are set forth in BZX Rule 14.13.
    The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the
Exchange's website (http://markets.cboe.com/us/equities/regulation/rule_filings/bzx/), at the Exchange's Office of the Secretary, 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 Exchange 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 these 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 aspects 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 is proposing to amend Rule 14.13(b)(2)(C) related to
the listing of exchange-traded products (``ETPs'') \3\ on the Exchange.
Specifically, the Exchange is proposing to modify the fee definition of
Outcome Strategy ETPs provided under Rule 14.13(b)(2)(C)(iii) (the
``Rule'') to include ETPs that provide returns based on the performance
of more than one underlying instruments.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ As defined in Rule 11.8(e)(1)(A), the term ``ETP'' means any
security listed pursuant to Exchange Rule 14.11.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    By way of background, Outcome Strategy ETPs are ETPs that are
designed to provide a particular set of returns over a specified
outcome period based on the performance of an underlying instrument
during the ETP's outcome period. As an example, an Outcome Strategy ETP
would include an ETP that employs the following strategy (the ``Buffer
Strategy''): The ETP seeks to provide investment returns that match the
gains of a particular index (the ``Reference Index'') up to a maximized
annual return (the ``Cap Level'') while guarding against certain
declines in that same underlying index (the ``Buffer Level'') over a
particular period of time (the ``Outcome Period''). If over the course
of the Outcome Period, the Reference Index increases in value, the ETP
would appreciate by approximately the same amount, up to the Cap Level.
If over the course of the Outcome Period, the Reference Index decreases
in value by an amount equal to or less than the Buffer Level, then the
ETP would provide an approximate total return of zero. If over the
course of the Outcome Period, the Reference Index decreases in value by
an amount greater than the Buffer Level, then the ETP would decrease in
value by approximately the same percentage as the Reference Index,
minus the Buffer Level. Such outcomes would only apply for the
specified Outcome Period and the ETP would reset at the end of that
Outcome Period in order to employ the same Buffer Strategy for the
following Outcome Period.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Exchange notes that the Cap Levels, Buffer Levels, and
the duration of each Outcome Period will vary across Outcome
Strategy Series, but that the concepts of providing exposure to a
particular reference instrument with an upside cap and limited
downside over a particular period of time generally define Outcome
Strategy ETPs.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As such, the Outcome Period applicable to each ETP is particularly
important and investors need to have

more granular Outcome Periods in order to ensure that they are able to
achieve the full Cap Level upside and Buffer Level downside protection.
Issuers of Outcome Strategy ETPs generally issue the products in at
least quarterly versions of each strategy. The issuer may also elect to
list ETPs employing the Buffer Strategy in order to provide monthly
Outcome Periods, meaning that there would be twelve separate ETPs
listed on the Exchange that each employ the same Buffer Strategy, but
have different Outcome Periods. Again, this provides investors with
more precision when deciding which Outcome Strategy ETP to purchase
among the series of Outcome Strategy ETPs (the ``Outcome Strategy
Series'').
    With this in mind, the Exchange adopted the Rule which capped the
maximum listing fee per year for an Outcome Strategy Series at $16,000.
Specifically, the Rule provides that where an issuer lists multiple
ETPs that are each designed to provide (i) a pre-defined set of
returns; (ii) over a specified outcome period; (iii) based on the
performance of the same underlying instrument; and (iv) each employ the
same outcome strategy for achieving the predefined set of returns, the
maximum annual listing fee applicable to such Outcome Strategy Series
will be $16,000 per year.
    Now, the Exchange proposes to expand criteria (iii) of the Rule to
include ETPs that are based on the performance of two or more
underlying instruments. Such an amendment would expand the annual
listing fee cap to include an Outcome Strategy Series that may, for
example, include Outcome Strategy ETPs with returns based on the
performance of two or more Reference Indexes. The Exchange intends to
implement the proposed amendments to its fee schedule on January 4,
2021.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to the
Exchange and, in particular, the requirements of Section 6(b) of the
Act.\5\ Specifically, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is
consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) \6\ in that it provides for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and other charges among
issuers and it does not unfairly discriminate between customers,
issuers, brokers or dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that the proposed amendment to the Rule is
reasonable, fair and equitable, and not an unfairly discriminatory
allocation of fees and other charges because it would apply equally for
all issuers and all Outcome Strategy Series. The Rule was designed to
implement a cap on the listing fees for multiple series of Outcome
Strategy ETPs with, among other things, returns based on the same
underlying instrument. However, the Rule does not contemplate such a
cap for a series of Outcome Strategy ETPs with returns based on the
performance of multiple instruments. As such, the proposed amendment
would allow a greater number of Outcome Strategy Series to benefit from
the fee cap of $16,000.
    The Exchange notes that the proposal would only expand the cap on
fees for ETPs meeting the amended definition of Outcome Strategy ETPs
and would only act to leave static or reduce fees for ETPs listed on
the Exchange. Further, as proposed, the Rule would decrease the fees
associated with Outcome Strategy ETPs that are based on the performance
of the same underlying instruments, which may reduce the barriers to
entry into the space and incentivize enhanced competition among issuers
of Outcome Strategy ETPs, to the benefit of investors. The Exchange
notes that an issuer would only receive the benefit of the annual fee
cap if they accrue greater than $16,000 in listing fees for a
particular Outcome Strategy Series.
    The Exchange believes that the proposed cap on fees for Outcome
Strategy Series and the associated changes is a reasonable means to
incentivize issuers to list (or transfer) Outcome Strategy ETPs on the
Exchange. The marketplace for listings is extremely competitive and
there are several other national securities exchanges that offer ETP
listings. Transfers between listing venues occur frequently for
numerous reasons, including listing fees. The proposed rule changes
reflect a competitive pricing structure designed to incentivize issuers
to list new products and transfer existing products to the Exchange,
which the Exchange believes will enhance competition both among ETP
issuers and listing venues, to the benefit of investors.
    Based on the foregoing, the Exchange believes that the proposed
rule changes are consistent with the Act.

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange does not believe
that the proposed change burdens competition, but instead, enhances
competition, as it is intended to apply the $16,000 fee cap to Outcome
Strategy ETPs that are based on the performance of two or more
instruments, which may lead to reduced fees for issuers of such
products. The marketplace for listings is extremely competitive and
there are several other national securities exchanges that offer ETP
listings. Transfers between listing venues occur frequently for
numerous reasons, including listing fees. This proposal is intended to
help the Exchange compete as an ETP listing venue. Accordingly, the
Exchange does not believe that the proposed change will impair the
ability of issuers or competing ETP listing venues to maintain their
competitive standing. The Exchange also notes that the proposed change
represents a competitive pricing structure designed to incentivize
issuers to list new products and transfer existing products to the
Exchange, which the Exchange believes will enhance competition both
among ETP issuers and listing venues, to the benefit of investors. The
Exchange believes that such proposed changes will directly enhance
competition among ETP listing venues by reducing the costs associated
with listing on the Exchange for ETPs meeting the proposed definition
of Outcome Strategy ETPs. As such, the proposal is a competitive

44 CFR Part 65

[Docket ID FEMA-2010-0003; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-B-1082]

Changes in Flood Elevation Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Interim rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This interim rule lists communities where modification of the
Base (1% annual-chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs) is appropriate because
of new scientific or technical data. New flood insurance premium rates
will be calculated from the modified BFEs for new buildings and their
contents.

DATES: These modified BFEs are currently in effect on the dates listed
in the table below and revise the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) in
effect prior to this determination for the listed communities.
    From the date of the second publication of these changes in a
newspaper of local circulation, any person has ninety (90) days in
which to request through the community that the Deputy Federal
Insurance and Mitigation Administrator reconsider the changes. The
modified BFEs may be changed during the 90-day period.

ADDRESSES: The modified BFEs for each community are available for
inspection at the office of the Chief Executive Officer of each
community. The respective addresses are listed in the table below.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kevin C. Long, Acting Chief,
Engineering Management Branch, Mitigation Directorate, Federal
Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street, SW., Washington, DC 20472,
(202) 646-2820, or (e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The modified BFEs are not listed for each
community in this interim rule. However, the address of the Chief
Executive Officer of the community where the modified BFE
determinations are available for inspection is provided.
    Any request for reconsideration must be based on knowledge of
changed conditions or new scientific or technical data.
    The modifications are made pursuant to section 201 of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105,

and are in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42
U.S.C. 4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR part 65.
    For rating purposes, the currently effective community number is
shown and must be used for all new policies and renewals.
    The modified BFEs are the basis for the floodplain management
measures that the community is required either to adopt or to show
evidence of being already in effect in order to qualify or to remain
qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
    These modified BFEs, together with the floodplain management
criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum that are required.
They should not be construed to mean that the community must change any
existing ordinances that are more stringent in their floodplain
management requirements. The community may at any time enact stricter
requirements of its own or pursuant to policies established by other
Federal, State, or regional entities. The changes in BFEs are in
accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
    National Environmental Policy Act. This interim rule is
categorically excluded from the requirements of 44 CFR part 10,
Environmental Consideration. An environmental impact assessment has not
been prepared.
    Regulatory Flexibility Act. As flood elevation determinations are
not within the scope of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601-
612, a regulatory flexibility analysis is not required.
    Regulatory Classification. This interim rule is not a significant
regulatory action under the criteria of section 3(f) of Executive Order
12866 of September 30, 1993, Regulatory Planning and Review, 58 FR
51735.
    Executive Order 13132, Federalism. This interim rule involves no
policies that have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism.
    Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. This interim rule
meets the applicable standards of Executive Order 12988.
