II. Background A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

This notice constitutes and announces the availability of the norflurazon and fenbutatin oxide TREDs. These decisions have been developed as part of the public participation process that EPA and the U. S. Department of Agriculture ( USDA) are using to involve the public in the reassessment of pesticide tolerances under FFDCA. The EPA must review tolerances and tolerance exemptions that were in effect when FQPA was enacted in August 1996, to ensure that these existing pesticide residue limits for food and feed commodities meet the safety standard of the new law. In reviewing these tolerances, the Agency must consider, among other things, aggregate risks from non occupational sources of pesticide exposure, whether there is increased susceptibility to infants and children, and the cumulative effects of pesticides with a common mechanism of toxicity. The tolerances are considered reassessed once the safety finding has been made that aggregate risks are not of concern. A reregistration eligibility decision ( RED) was completed for norflurazon in June 1996 and fenbutatin oxide in September 1994, prior to FQPA enactment, and therefore needed an updated assessment to consider the provisions of the Act. FFDCA requires that the Agency, when considering whether to establish, modify, or revoke a tolerance, consider    available information'' concerning the cumulative effects of a particular pesticide's residues and    other substances that have a common mechanism of toxicity.'' At this time, norflurazon and fenbutatin oxide have not been identified as sharing a common mechanism of toxicity and are not scheduled for a cumulative risk assessment. Additionally, the tolerances for norflurazon ( 58) and fenbutatin oxide ( 42) are now considered reassessed as safe under section 408( q) of FFDCA. The reregistration program is being conducted under Congressionally mandated time frames, and the EPA recognizes both the need to make timely reregistration decisions and to involve the public. Therefore, the Agency is issuing these TREDs as final documents because no risk mitigation or changes to existing labeling are necessary. All comments received within 30 days of publication of this Federal Register notice will be carefully considered by the Agency. If any comment significantly impacts a TRED, the Agency will amend its decision by publishing a Federal Register notice.

B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?

The legal authority for these TREDs falls under FIFRA, as amended in 1988 and 1996. Section 4( g)( 2)( A) of FIFRA directs that, after submission of all data concerning a pesticide active ingredient,    the Administrator shall determine whether pesticides containing such active ingredient are eligible for reregistration,'' and either reregistering products or taking    other appropriate regulatory action.''

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-52659; File No. SR-CBOE-2005-85]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Chicago Board Options Exchange,
Incorporated; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Rule
Change To Adopt a Market Turner Priority for Index Options and Options
on ETFs on the Exchange's Hybrid System

October 24, 2005.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on October 14, 2005, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated
(``CBOE'' or ``Exchange''), filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in
Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by the CBOE. The
Exchange has filed the proposal pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the
Act \3\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder,\4\ which renders the proposal
effective upon filing with the Commission. The Commission is publishing
this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from
interested persons.

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

    The Exchange proposes to modify its Hybrid System rule regarding
priority and allocation of trades in index options and options on ETFs
to adopt a market turner priority. The Exchange has designated this
proposal as non-controversial and has requested that the Commission
waive the 30-day pre-operative waiting period contained in Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) under the Act.\5\ The text of the proposed rule change is
available on CBOE's Web site (http://www.cboe.com), at the CBOE'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 proposes to add a market turner priority (which has
already been approved for CBOE's screen-based trading (``SBT'') rules)
\6\ to its Hybrid trading rules for index options and options on ETFs.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 47628 (Apr. 3,
2003), 68 FR 17697 (Apr. 10, 2003) (SR-CBOE-00-55) (``SBT Order'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In April 2003, the Commission approved the CBOE's SBT rules
(Chapters 40-46).\7\ CBOE Rule 43.1 is the matching algorithm rule
applicable to trading on the SBT platform.\8\ The Exchange states that,
essentially, CBOE Rule 43.1 calls for the use of either price-time
priority or pro-rata priority as the base order allocation methodology.
The rule then allows for three additional priority overlays: Public
customer priority for public customer orders resting on the SBT system;
participation right guarantees for certain qualifying market-makers;
and a market turner priority for participants that are first to improve
the CBOE's disseminated quote. These overlays are optional.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See SBT Order.
    \8\ The Exchange states that no products currently trade
pursuant to the SBT rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange states that recently approved CBOE Rule 6.45B,\9\
relating to priority and order allocation for index options and options
on ETFs trading on the Exchange's Hybrid System, is based in part on
CBOE Rule 43.1 in that it allows for the selection of price-time or
pro-rata as an order allocation methodology (CBOE's Ultimate Matching
Algorithm is also an option) and allows for customer priority and
participation entitlement overlays. The Exchange now seeks to add a
market turner overlay to CBOE Rule 6.45B so that index products trading
on the Hybrid System may trade with a market turner priority.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 51822 (Jun. 10,
2005), 70 FR 35321 (Jun. 17, 2005) (SR-CBOE-2004-87).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Here is how the market turner priority overlay works under CBOE
Rule 43.1: assume the pro-rata allocation methodology is in place for
option class ABC and that no other overlays are in effect. Also assume
that the market for a particular series is 1.00--1.15. If Market-Maker
A enters a bid for 1.05 for 100 contracts, Market-Maker A becomes the
market turner at 1.05. To the extent others join the 1.05 bid, Market-
Maker A would have priority at that price until its bid size is
exhausted. Thus, the market turner will receive 100% of an incoming
order until its quote is exhausted. This is true even if a 1.10 bid is
entered and is then traded while the market turner's 1.05 bid remains
unexecuted (i.e., the market turner priority at a given price is
retained once it is earned, even if the disseminated quote changes).
    The Exchange is proposing to add this priority overlay to its index
Hybrid rules,\10\ but with flexibility to allow the Exchange to
allocate less than 100% of an incoming order to the market turner. For
example, taking the same facts as the example described above, assume
that the Exchange has in place a 40% allocation for market turners and
that Market-Maker A is joined at 1.05 by Market-Maker B for 60
contracts and Market-Maker C for 60 contracts. Also assume a sell
market order is received for 100 contracts. As proposed, Market-Maker A
would have priority for 40 contracts. The remaining 60 contracts would
be divided pro-rata between all three participants at 1.05 (20
contracts to each). Thus, with this ``modified'' market turner
priority, Market-Maker A receives 60 contracts of the order (but is
only guaranteed 40), whereas under CBOE Rule 43.1, Market-Maker A would
be guaranteed 100 contracts. The Exchange states that this is the only
material difference between CBOE Rule 43.1 and what the Exchange is
proposing to adopt for CBOE Rule 6.45B.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ The Exchange states that most options trading on CBOE
currently trades on the Hybrid System.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange is also clarifying in the proposed rule that the
market turner priority only remains in effect for the duration of the
trading day and that it cannot be established until after the opening
rotation.
    Finally, the Exchange notes that, like public customer priority and
the participation entitlement, the market turner priority is optional.
The Exchange states that the appropriate Exchange procedures committee
would determine whether one or more of these priority overlays would
apply to a product and if more than one is selected, the sequence in
which they would apply (consistent with applicable rules). The Exchange
states that all determinations would be set forth in a regulatory
circular.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange states that this change will provide it with another
method to reward aggressive pricing in index options and options on
ETFs trading on the Hybrid System. Accordingly, the Exchange believes
that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the
Act \11\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of
the Act \12\ in particular, in that the rules of an exchange be
designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, and to
protect investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange 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

    The foregoing proposed rule change is subject to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \13\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder \14\
because the proposal: (i) Does not significantly affect the protection
of investors or the public interest; (ii) does not impose any
significant burden on competition; and (iii) does not become operative
prior to 30 days after the date of filing or such shorter time as the
Commission may designate if consistent with the protection of investors
and the public interest; provided that the Exchange has given the
Commission notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along
with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at least
five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \14\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The CBOE has satisfied the five-day pre-filing requirement. In
addition, the Exchange has requested that the Commission waive the 30-
day operative delay. The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day
operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the
public interest because such waiver will permit the Exchange to
implement the proposed

rule change without delay and thereby provide an incentive to parties
on the Exchange to quote more aggressively as soon as possible. For
these reasons, the Commission designates the proposal to be effective
and operative upon filing with the Commission.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ For purposes only of accelerating the operative date of
this proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's
impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ See Section 19(b)(3)(C) of the Act, 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(C).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Solicitation of Comments

change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

Purpose of the Committee

    MCSAC was established to provide FMCSA with advice and
recommendations on motor carrier safety programs and motor carrier
safety regulations. MCSAC is composed of up to 25 voting
representatives from safety advocacy, safety enforcement, labor, and
industry stakeholders of motor carrier safety. The diversity of the
Committee ensures the requisite range of views and expertise necessary
to discharge its responsibilities. The committee operates as a
discretionary committee under the authority of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT), established in accordance with the provisions of
the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), as amended 5 U.S.C. App. 2.

Meeting Agenda

    On Tuesday, the MCSAC will begin considering Task 21-1, relating to
supply chains for the transportation industrial base. Task 21-1 will
include discussions about workforce skills for the motor carrier sector
and identified gaps, opportunities, and potential best practices in
meeting the future workforce needs and driver retention for the motor
carrier industry, as well as the role of transportation systems in
supporting existing supply chains and risks associated with those
transportation systems and the safe and efficient transportation of
passengers and freight across our Nation. Following its initial
consideration of data and presentations on the topic, the MCSAC

will engage its Driver Subcommittee for its consideration of workforce
needs, at a meeting later this summer.
    Additionally, MCSAC will resume consideration of the following
issues:
     Task 20-2 will focus on the impact of the aging
demographic of the commercial motor vehicle driver workforce on the
truck and bus industries and whether this trend will exacerbate the
driver shortage problem. Stakeholders have expressed concerns about the
need to address the driver shortage, including options for allowing
younger drivers to enter the industry. How would an aging workforce
impact motor carriers' ability to deliver services and goods safely in
interstate commerce? For this task, FMCSA will consider data by agency
experts on the distribution of age among CMV drivers.
     Task 20-1 will provide the MCSAC with the opportunity to
discuss changes to the package and small goods delivery sector. A
number of companies are now using small vehicles (e.g., vehicles with a
gross vehicle weight rating less than 10,000 pounds, etc.) to deliver
goods and there appears to be a gap in safety oversight of both drivers
and vehicles. For this task, members will hear from Agency experts on
trends in the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) and Motor
Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) crash and highway safety
data.

II. Meeting Participation

    While not required, advance registration is encouraged. To indicate
that you will attend, please register at www.fmcsa.dot.gov/mcsac by the
deadline referenced in the DATES section. The meeting will be open to
the public for its entirety. The U.S. Department of Transportation is
committed to providing equal access to this meeting for all
participants. If you need alternative formats or services because of a
disability, such as sign language, interpretation, or other ancillary
aids, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section.
    Oral comments from the public will be heard throughout the meeting,
at the discretion of the MCSAC chairman and designated federal officer.
Additionally, to ensure that all participants have had the opportunity
to have their comments heard, the agenda will include a public comment
period at the end of each day's session. Members of the public may
submit written comments to the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section on the topics to be considered during the
