This difference is due to the larger number of affected facilities, based on the current information and reporting requirements from the RCRAInfo database. These revisions do not reflect any change in the Part B requirements; they represent instead a more accurate and updated representation of the number of respondents submitting renewal applications.

6( g) Burden Statement The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 262 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15.

To comment on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including the use of automated collection techniques, EPA has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID Number EPA HQ RCRA 2006 0069, which is available for online viewing at www. regulations. gov, or in person viewing at the RCRA Docket in the EPA Docket Center ( EPA/ DC), EPA West, Room B102, 1301 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, D. C. The EPA Docket Center Public Reading Room is open from 8: 30 a. m. to 4: 30 p. m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The telephone number for the Reading Room is ( 202) 566 1744, and the telephone number for the RCRA Docket is ( 202) 566 0270. An electronic version of the public docket is available at www. regulations. gov. This site can be used to submit or view public comments, access the index listing of the contents of the public docket, and to access those documents in the public docket that are available electronically. When in the system, select " search," then key in the Docket ID Number identified above.

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend Direct Edge ECN's (``DECN'') fee
schedule for ISE Members \3\ to amend its fee schedule by (i) re-
introducing a rebate; (ii) adding a fee for stocks priced less than $1
that remove liquidity on EDGA; (iii) eliminating certain tables on the
fee schedule and (iv) making typographical and clarifying changes to
the fee schedule. All of the changes described herein are applicable to
ISE Members.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ References to ISE Members in this filing refer to DECN
Subscribers who are ISE Members.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    All of the changes described herein are applicable to ISE Members.
The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
Internet Web site at http://www.ise.com.

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 these statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The self-regulatory organization
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
    DECN, a facility of ISE, operates two trading platforms, EDGX and
EDGA.
Re-introduction of Ultra Tier Rebate
    In SR-ISE-2009-68,\4\ the Exchange amended the criteria for meeting
the Ultra Tier by allowing ISE Members to receive a $0.0032 rebate per
share for securities priced at or above $1.00 when ISE Members add
liquidity on EDGX if the attributed MPID posts 1% of the total
consolidated volume (``TCV'') in average daily volume (``ADV''). TCV is
defined as volume reported by all exchanges and trade reporting
facilities to the consolidated transaction reporting plans for Tape A,
B, and C securities. For competitive reasons, the Exchange is now
seeking to re-introduce an Ultra Tier rebate of $0.0031 per share.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 60769 (October 2,
2009), 74 FR 51903 (October 8, 2009) (SR-ISE-2009-68).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Ultra Tier rebate ($0.0031 per share), which is a higher rebate
than the next best rebate ($0.0029 per share) for adding liquidity on
EDGX, is also more difficult to reach, as a higher volume threshold is
required based on recent TCV figures. For example, 1% of the average
TCV for January 2010 (8.9 billion) was approximately 89 million shares.
This threshold far exceeds the criteria (no minimum share volume
requirement) to meet the next best rebate of $0.0029 per share. In
addition, the higher rebate also results in part from lower
administrative costs associated with higher volume.
Additional Changes to the Fee Schedule
    Effective January 1, 2010,\5\ DECN adjusted its pricing model to be
more consistent with other exchanges (even though DECN is not an
exchange),\6\ by de-linking the pricing structures of DECN to eliminate
pricing offers that are contingent on activity across both platforms.
Secondly, the Exchange simplified its fee schedule in order to provide
Members with greater consistency and transparency during the period
that the EDGA and EDGX Exchanges are preparing to launch, when volume
will be transitioning from DECN to the EDGA and EDGX Exchanges
(assuming their respective Form 1 applications are approved by the
Commission). The Exchange believes that these same goals are also
advanced for the most part in this filing, which proposes technical and
clarifying changes to DECN's fee schedule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 61289 (January 5,
2010), 75 FR 1674 (January 12, 2010) (SR-ISE-2009-108).
    \6\ On May 7, 2009, each of EDGA Exchange, Inc. and EDGX
Exchange, Inc. (the ``EDGA and EDGX Exchanges'') filed their
respective Form 1 applications to register as a national securities
exchange (``Form 1'') pursuant to Section 6 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. On July 30, 2009, the Exchanges filed
Amendment No. 1 to the Form 1 Application. On September 17, 2009,
the Form 1 was published in the Federal Register for notice and
comment. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 60651 (September
11, 2009), 74 FR 47827 (September 17, 2009).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    To effectuate the foregoing, the Exchange deleted certain charges
in footnote 1 of the fee schedule, including one whereby ISE Members
were charged $0.0002 per share to add liquidity on EDGA unless the
attributed MPID added a minimum average daily share volume, measured
monthly, of at least 50,000,000 shares on EDGA. Prior to January 1,
2010, any attributed MPID meeting the aforementioned minimum was not
charged to add liquidity on EDGA. Since this charge was deleted from
footnote 1, the Exchange proposes

to delete the corresponding footnote 1 from flags B, V, Y, 3, and 4
from the EDGA column as this footnote no longer applies.
    In order to further simplify its fee schedule for Members, the
Exchange proposes to delete the table on the fee schedule entitled
``Fees per Share for Special Order Types'' as the Exchange believes
that the information on this schedule is repetitive of the information
in the ``liquidity flags and associated fees'' table below it. As a
result of this proposed deletion, the Exchange proposes to relocate
footnote numbers 4 and 5. Footnote 4 is proposed to be re-located to
``Flag E'' and added to ``Flag 5'' to clarify it. Footnote 5 is
proposed to be relocated to ``Flag O.'' These are the corresponding
areas where these references belong.
    The Exchange proposes to re-word the first sentence in footnote 1
to clarify that adding can include placing hidden orders.
    In addition, the Exchange proposes to add a fee to its schedule to
provide that stocks priced less than $1 will be charged 0.20% of the
dollar value if they do not meet the minimum average daily share volume
of 50,000 shares on EDGA to qualify for the removal rate. A conforming
footnote 1 is proposed to be added in the first table on the fee
schedule (next to the word ``Free'') for removing liquidity in stocks
less than $1.00 on EDGA.
    In SR-ISE-2009-108,\7\ for securities priced less than $1, the
Exchange changed the fee for adding liquidity on EDGX from free to a
rebate of 0.15% of the dollar value of the transaction. The Exchange
proposes to correct a typographical error on its current schedule by
adding parenthesis around the ``0.15% of dollar value'' to clarify that
this is a rebate, and not a charge, for adding liquidity on EDGX in
securities priced less than $1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 61289 (January 5,
2010), 75 FR 1674 (January 12, 2010).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For Flag P, the Exchange proposes to correct a typographical error
on the schedule by inverting the columns that are currently displayed.
For EDGX, flag P should read ``N/A'' and for EDGA it should read a
rebate of $0.0025 per share (i.e., (0.0025)).
    The Exchange proposes to clarify Footnote 3. The second sentence of
this footnote states that the ``rebate for adding liquidity on the NYSE
of $0.0010 per share.'' This information is already conveyed in Flag F
and is proposed to be deleted in order to simplify and clarify the fee
schedule. The first sentence of footnote 3 is also proposed to be
deleted as it is repetitive of the amended third sentence in footnote 3
(``stocks prices below $1.00 on the NYSE are charged $0.0018 per share
when removing liquidity.'') As a result, on Flag J, footnote 3 is
proposed to be deleted as the reference no longer applies. However,
footnote 3 is proposed to be relocated to Flag D in order to further
clarify it.
    The changes discussed in this filing will become operative on
February 1, 2010.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the objectives of Section 6 of the Act,\8\ in general, and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4),\9\ in particular, as it is
designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees and other charges among its members and other persons using its
facilities. In particular, simplifying the rate structure for Members
provides pricing incentives to market participants that route orders to
DECN, allowing DECN to remain competitive. ISE notes that DECN operates
in a highly competitive market in which market participants can readily
direct order flow to competing venues if they deem fee levels at a
particular venue to be excessive. The proposed rule change reflects a
competitive pricing structure designed to incent market participants to
direct their order flow to DECN. The proposed re-introduction of an
Ultra Tier rebate also provides an incentive to Members who add
significant order flow to EDGX. Finally, the Exchange believes that the
proposed rates are equitable in that they apply uniformly to all
Members and provide higher rebates for higher volume thresholds,
resulting from lower administrative costs. ISE believes the fees and
credits remain competitive with those charged by other venues and
therefore continue to be reasonable and equitably allocated to those
members that opt to direct orders to DECN rather than competing venues.
The ISE also believes that the proposed rates are equitable in that
they apply uniformly to all Members. Finally, to adjust DECN's pricing
model to be more consistent with other exchanges (even though DECN is
not an exchange), the Exchange desires to simplify part of its fee
schedule in order to provide Members with greater consistency and
transparency during the period that the EDGA and EDGX Exchanges are
preparing to launch, when volume will be transitioning from DECN to
EDGA/EDGX Exchanges (assuming their respective Form 1 applications are
approved by the Commission).

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

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

    The proposed rule change does not impose any burden on competition
that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of
the Act.

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

    The Exchange has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit,
comments on this proposed rule change. The Exchange has not received
any unsolicited written comments from members or other interested
parties.

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

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3) of the Act \10\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(2) \11\ thereunder. At any
time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule change, the
Commission may summarily abrogate 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.

Item IV below. FINRA 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
    As part of the process of developing a new consolidated rulebook
(``Consolidated FINRA Rulebook''),\3\ FINRA is proposing to adopt NASD
Rule 2720 (Public Offerings of Securities With Conflicts of Interest)
without material change as FINRA Rule 5121 in the Consolidated FINRA
Rulebook.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The current FINRA rulebook consists of (1) FINRA Rules; (2)
NASD Rules; and (3) rules incorporated from NYSE (``Incorporated
NYSE Rules'') (together, the NASD Rules and Incorporated NYSE Rules
are referred to as the ``Transitional Rulebook''). While the NASD
Rules generally apply to all FINRA members, the Incorporated NYSE
Rules apply only to those members of FINRA that are also members of
the NYSE (``Dual Members''). The FINRA Rules apply to all FINRA
members, unless such rules have a more limited application by their
terms. For more information about the rulebook consolidation
process, see Information Notice, March 12, 2008 (Rulebook
Consolidation Process).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NASD Rule 2720 governs public offerings of securities in which a
member with a conflict of interest participates. The rule generally
prohibits a member with a ``conflict of interest,'' as defined in the
rule,\4\ from participating in a public offering, unless certain other
requirements are met.\5\ There is no comparable Incorporated NYSE Rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ As defined in NASD Rule 2720(f)(5), a conflict of interest
exists, if at the time of a member's participation in an entity's
public offering, any of the following four conditions applies: (1)
The securities are to be issued by the member; (2) the issuer
controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the
member or the member's associated persons; (3) at least five percent
of the net offering proceeds, not including underwriting
compensation, are intended to be (i) used to reduce or retire the
balance of a loan or credit facility extended by the member, its
affiliates and its associated persons, in the aggregate; or (ii)
otherwise directed to the member, its affiliates and associated
persons, in the aggregate; or (4) if, as a result of the public
offering and any transactions contemplated at the time of the public
offering (i) the member will be an affiliate of the issuer; (ii) the
member will become publicly owned; or (iii) the issuer will become a
member or form a broker-dealer subsidiary. NASD Rule 2720 defines
several terms for purposes of the rule, including ``entity,''
``control,'' and ``common control.''
    \5\ The rule requires prominent disclosure of the nature of the
conflict, and in certain circumstances, the participation of a
qualified independent underwriter. Members also must comply with
certain net capital, discretionary accounts and filing requirements,
as applicable.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On June 15, 2009, the SEC approved a proposed rule change to
modernize NASD Rule 2720 (the ``2009 Rule Change'').\6\ The 2009 Rule
Change became effective on September 14, 2009.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 60113 (June 15,
2009), 74 FR 29255 (June 19, 2009) (Order Approving Proposed Rule
Change; File No. SR-FINRA-2007-009).
    \7\ See Regulatory Notice 09-49 (SEC Approves Amendments to
Modernize and Simplify NASD Rule 2720 Relating to Public Offerings
in Which a Member Firm With a Conflict of Interest Participates)
(August 2009).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed rule change would adopt NASD Rule 2720 without
material change as FINRA Rule 5121 in the Consolidated FINRA Rulebook.
The rule would make minor changes to reflect the new terminology
conventions of the Consolidated FINRA Rulebook.
    FINRA will announce the implementation date of the proposed rule
change in a Regulatory Notice to be published no later than 90 days
following Commission approval. The implementation date will be no later
than 180 days from Commission approval.
2. Statutory Basis
    FINRA believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act,\8\ which requires, among
other things, that FINRA rules must be designed to prevent fraudulent
and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, and, in general, to protect investors and the
public interest. FINRA believes that the proposed rule change will
continue to serve to protect investors in offerings where the member
has a conflict of interest.

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    FINRA does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

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

    Within 35 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period (i) as the Commission may
designate up to 90 days of such date if it finds such longer period to
be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission will:
    (A) By order approve such proposed rule change, or
    (B) Institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.
