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

    In its filing with the Commission, CME included statements
concerning the purpose 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. CME 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

    CME is registered as a derivatives clearing organization with the
Commodity Futures Trading Commission (``CFTC'') and operates a
substantial business clearing futures and swaps contracts subject to
the jurisdiction of the CFTC. CME is proposing to expand the listing
schedule for the Urea (Granular) FOB US Gulf Coast Swaps (Clearing
Only) contract listed on the CBOT designated contract market, which is
available for submission for clearing via CME ClearPort. More
specifically, the CME ClearPort listing schedule as of August 17, 2015
will be amended from 12 consecutive calendar months to 24 consecutive
calendar months. CME has determined that the amended listing schedule
is more conducive to the needs of market participants.
* * * * *
    A summary of the amendments to the Urea (Granular) FOB US Gulf
Coast Swaps (Clearing Only) contract's listing schedule is set forth in
the following table:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                      DCM: CBOT                            Current CME          CME ClearPort
           Product title              Rulebook       Clearing code     ClearPort  listing   listing  schedule as
                                       chapter                              schedule         of  August 17, 2015
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Urea (Granular) FOB US Gulf Swaps            45   UFN                 12 consecutive        24 consecutive
 (Clearing Only).                                                      calendar months.      calendar months
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* * * * *
    The proposed rule changes that are described in this filing are
limited to CME's business as a derivatives clearing organization
clearing products under the exclusive jurisdiction of the CFTC. CME has
not cleared security based swaps and does not plan to and therefore the
proposed rule changes do not impact CME's security-based swap clearing
business in any way. The proposed changes would become effective
immediately. CME notes that it has also submitted the proposed rule
changes that are the subject of this filing to its primary regulator,
the CFTC, in CME Submission Number 15-290.
    CME believes the proposed rule changes are consistent with the
requirements of the Exchange Act including Section 17A.\5\ The proposed
rules expand the listing schedule for the Urea (Granular) FOB US Gulf
Coast Swaps (Clearing Only) contract, which is available for submission
for clearing via CME ClearPort, from 12 consecutive calendar months to
24 consecutive calendar months in response to the needs of market
participants. These rule changes are therefore designed to promote the
prompt and accurate clearance and settlement of securities transactions
and, to the extent applicable, derivatives agreements, contracts, and
transactions, to assure the safeguarding of securities and funds which
are in the custody or control of the clearing agency or for which it is
responsible, and, in general, to protect investors and the public
interest consistent with Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Exchange Act.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1.
    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1(b)(3)(F).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Furthermore, the proposed changes are limited to CME's futures and
swaps clearing businesses, which mean they are limited in their effect
to products that are under the exclusive jurisdiction of the CFTC. As
such, the proposed CME changes are limited to CME's activities as a DCO
clearing futures that are not security futures and swaps that are not
security-based swaps. CME notes that the policies of the CFTC with
respect to administering the Commodity Exchange Act are comparable to a
number of the policies underlying the Exchange Act, such as promoting
market transparency for over-the-counter derivatives markets, promoting
the prompt and accurate clearance of transactions and protecting
investors and the public interest.
    Because the proposed changes are limited in their effect to CME's
futures and swaps clearing businesses, the proposed changes are
properly classified as effecting a change in an existing service of CME
that:
    (a) Primarily affects the clearing operations of CME with respect
to products that are not securities,

including futures that are not security futures, swaps that are not
security-based swaps or mixed swaps; and forwards that are not security
forwards; and
    (b) does not significantly affect any securities clearing
operations of CME or any rights or obligations of CME with respect to
securities clearing or persons using such securities-clearing service.
    As such, the changes are therefore consistent with the requirements
of Section 17A of the Exchange Act \7\ and are properly filed under
Section 19(b)(3)(A) \8\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(4)(ii) \9\ thereunder.

    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(4)(ii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    CME does not believe that the proposed rule change will have any
impact, or impose any burden, on competition. The proposed changes
involve expanding the listing schedule for the Urea (Granular) FOB US
Gulf Coast Swaps (Clearing Only) contract listed on the CBOT designated
contract market, which is available for submission for clearing via CME
ClearPort. More specifically, the CME ClearPort listing schedule as of
August 17, 2015 will be amended from 12 consecutive calendar months to
24 consecutive calendar months. CME has determined that the amended
listing schedule is more conducive to the needs of market participants.

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

    CME has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit, comments
regarding this proposed rule change. CME has not received any
unsolicited written comments from interested parties.

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

    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Exchange Act \10\ and Rule
19b-4(f)(4)(ii) thereunder,\11\ CME has designated that this proposal
constitutes a change in an existing service of CME that (a) primarily
affects the clearing operations of CME with respect to products that
are not securities, including futures that are not security futures,
and swaps that are not security-based swaps or mixed swaps, and
forwards that are not security forwards; and (b) does not significantly
affect any securities clearing operations of CME or any rights or
obligations of CME with respect to securities clearing or persons using
such securities-clearing service, which renders the proposed change
effective upon filing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(4)(ii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    CME believes that the proposal does not significantly affect any
securities clearing operations of CME because CME recently filed a
proposed rule change that clarified that CME has decided not to clear
security-based swaps, except in a very limited set of
circumstances.\12\ The rule filing reflecting CME's decision not to
clear security-based swaps removed any ambiguity concerning CME's
ability or intent to perform the functions of a clearing agency with
respect to security-based swaps. Therefore, this proposal will have no
effect on any securities clearing operations of CME.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 73615 (Nov. 17,
2014), 79 FR 69545 (Nov. 21, 2014) (SR-CME-2014-49). The only
exception is with regards to Restructuring European Single Name CDS
Contracts created following the occurrence of a Restructuring Credit
Event in respect of an iTraxx Component Transaction. The clearing of
Restructuring European Single Name CDS Contracts will be a necessary
byproduct after such time that CME begins clearing iTraxx Europe
index CDS.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed 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 Exchange Act.

14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2009-0677; Airspace Docket No. 09-AGL-17]

Amendment of Class E Airspace; Mankato, MN

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E airspace at Mankato, MN. Additional
controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate Area Navigation (RNAV)
Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAP) at Mankato Regional
Airport, Mankato, MN. The FAA is taking this action to enhance the
safety and management of Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) operations at
Mankato Regional Airport.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, February 11, 2010. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under
1 CFR Part 51, subject to the annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and
publication of conforming amendments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Scott Enander, Central Service Center,
Operations Support Group, Federal Aviation Administration, Southwest
Region, 2601 Meacham Blvd., Fort Worth, TX 76137; telephone (817) 321-
7716.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On September 3, 2009, the FAA published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking to amend Class E airspace at Mankato, MN,
reconfiguring controlled airspace at Mankato Regional Airport, Mankato,
MN. (74 FR 45574, Docket No. FAA-2009-0677). Interested parties were
invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written
comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. Class E
airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order
7400.9T signed August 27, 2009, and effective September 15, 2009, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR Part 71.1. The Class E airspace
designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in
the Order.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
Part 71 by amending Class E airspace at Mankato, MN, adding additional
controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface
for SIAPs at Mankato Regional Airport, Mankato, MN, for the safety and
management of IFR operations.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory
action''

under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26,
1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter
that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106, describes
the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's authority.
This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it amends controlled airspace at Mankato Regional Airport, Mankato,
MN.

SUMMARY: This notice announces the availability of EPA's final
registration review decision for the pesticide propetamphos, case no.
2550. Registration review is EPA's periodic review of pesticide
registrations to ensure that each pesticide continues to satisfy the
statutory standard for registration, that is, that the pesticide can
perform its intended function without causing unreasonable adverse
effects on human health or the environment. Through this program, EPA
is ensuring that each pesticide's registration is based on current
scientific and other knowledge, including its effects on human health
and the environment.

II. Background

A. What action is the agency taking?

    Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58(c), this notice announces the
availability of EPA's final registration review decision for
propetamphos, case no. 2550. Propetamphos is an organophosphate
insecticide used for non-residential indoor crack and crevice treatment
to control crawling insects, primarily, ants, cockroaches, and fleas.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.57, a registration review decision is the
Agency's determination whether a pesticide meets, or does not meet, the
standard for registration in FIFRA. EPA has considered propetamphos in

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 13563-002]

Juneau Hydropower, Inc.; Notice of Successive Preliminary Permit
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To
Intervene, and Competing Applications

    On December 3, 2012, Juneau Hydropower, Inc., filed an application
for a successive preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the
Federal Power Act (FPA), proposing to study the feasibility of the
Sweetheart Lake Project located on Lower Sweetheart Lake and Sweetheart
Creek in Juneau, Alaska. The sole purpose of a preliminary permit, if
issued, is to grant the permit holder priority to file a license
application during the permit term. A preliminary permit does not
authorize the permit holder to perform any land-disturbing activities
or otherwise enter upon lands or waters owned by others without the
owners' express permission.
    The proposed project would consist of the following facilities: (1)
A new 275-foot-long, 105-foot-high concrete and rock face dam,
including project intake facilities and a 125-foot-wide overflow
spillway, constructed at the natural outlet of Lower Sweetheart Lake;
(2) the existing Lower Sweetheart Lake, raised to a surface elevation
of 628 feet above mean sea level, with a surface area of 1,701.5 acres
and an active storage capacity of 94,069 acre-feet at the normal
maximum water elevation; (3) a new 500-foot-long, 10-foot-diameter
stream diversion tunnel that would be converted to reservoir outlet
works after project construction; (4) a new 9,595-foot-long, 12-foot-
diameter penstock diverting flow from the project intake to the
powerhouse; (5) a new powerhouse containing three new 6.6-megawatt
(MW), Francis generating units having a total installed capacity of
19.8 MW; (6) a tailrace consisting of a new 76-foot-wide to 22-foot-
wide, 75-foot-long open afterbay; a new 225-foot-long, 12-foot-diameter
tunnel extending from the afterbay to an outlet structure on a
tributary to Sweetheart Creek; and an existing tributary stream
channel, modified to a 100-foot-long, 35-foot-wide channel that will
flow into Sweetheart Creek; (7) new marine access facilities, including
a dual-height marine ramp, floating docks for seaplane and boat access,
and a staging area adjacent to the docks; (8) a new switchyard adjacent
to the powerhouse; (9) a new 8.69-mile-long, 138-kilovolt transmission
line, consisting of buried, submarine, and overhead segments; (10) a
new 4,400-foot-long access road; and (11) appurtenant facilities. The
proposed Sweetheart Lake Project would have an average annual
generation of 111 gigawatt-hours.
