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

of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to delete the text of Rule 409(f)--NYSE Amex

    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 delete the text of Rule 409(f)--NYSE Amex

Equities and adopt the text of FINRA Rule 2232.

Background

    On July 30, 2007, FINRA's predecessor, the National Association of

Securities Dealers, Inc. (``NASD''), and NYSE Regulation, Inc.

(``NYSER'') consolidated their member firm regulation operations into a

combined organization, FINRA.\4\ Pursuant to Rule 17d-2 under the Act,

New York Stock Exchange, LLC (``NYSE''), NYSER and FINRA entered into

an agreement (the ``Agreement'') to reduce regulatory duplication for

their members by allocating to FINRA certain regulatory

responsibilities for certain NYSE rules and rule interpretations

(``FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules''). NYSE Amex became a party to the

Agreement effective December 15, 2008.\5\

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

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 62970 (Sept. 22,

2010), 75 FR 59771 (Sept. 28, 2010) (order approving SR-FINRA-2010-

37).

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 56148 (July 26,

2007), 72 FR 42146 (August 1, 2007) (order approving the Agreement);

56147 (July 26, 2007), 72 FR 42166 (August 1, 2007) (SR-NASD-2007-

054) (order approving the incorporation of certain NYSE Rules as

``Common Rules''); and 60409 (July 30, 2009), 74 FR 39353 (August 6,

2009) (order approving the amended and restated Agreement, adding

NYSE Amex LLC as a party). Paragraph 2(b) of the Agreement sets

forth procedures regarding proposed changes by FINRA, NYSE or NYSE

Amex to the substance of any of the Common Rules.

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

    As part of its effort to reduce regulatory duplication and relieve

firms that are members of FINRA, NYSE and NYSE Amex of conflicting or

unnecessary regulatory burdens, FINRA is now engaged in the process of

reviewing and amending the NASD and FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules in

order to create a consolidated FINRA rulebook.\6\

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

    \6\ FINRA's rulebook currently has three sets of rules: (1) NASD

Rules, (2) FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules, and (3) consolidated FINRA

Rules. The FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules apply only to those members

of FINRA that are also members of the NYSE (``Dual Members''), while

the consolidated FINRA Rules apply to all FINRA members. For more

information about the FINRA rulebook consolidation process, see

FINRA Information Notice, March 12, 2008.

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

Rule 409(f)--NYSE Amex Equities and FINRA Rule 2232

    In connection with the rule consolidation efforts between the

Exchange and FINRA, the Commission has recently approved FINRA Rule

2232,\7\ which is modeled after NYSE Rule 409(f), NASD Rule 2230 and

NASD IM-2110-6.\8\ FINRA Rule 2232 requires member firms, at or before

the completion of any transaction in any security effected for or with

an account of a customer, to give or send to such customer written

notification (``confirmation'') in conformity with the requirements of

Rule 10b-10 under the Act. A confirmation given or sent pursuant to

FINRA Rule 2232 must further disclose (1) with respect to any

transaction in any NMS stock, as defined in Rule 600 of SEC Regulation

NMS, or any security subject to the reporting requirements of the FINRA

Rule 6600 Series, other than direct participation programs as defined

in FINRA Rule 6420, the settlement date of the transaction; and (2)

with respect to any transaction in a callable equity security, that (A)

the security is a callable equity security and (B) a customer may

contact the member for more information concerning the security.

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

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 63150 (October 21,

2010), 75 FR 66173 (October 27, 2010) (SR-FINRA-2009-058). See also

Securities Exchange Act Release No. 63561(December 16, 2010), 75 FR

80556 (December 22, 2010) (SR-FINRA-2010-066).

    \8\ NYSE Rule 409(f) currently provides that confirmation of all

transactions in securities admitted to dealings on the Exchange,

sent by members or member organizations to their customers, shall

clearly set forth with a suitable legend the settlement date of each

transaction.

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

    The Exchange proposes to delete the text of Rule 409(f)--NYSE Amex

Equities \9\ and adopt the text of FINRA Rule 2232 as Rule 2232--NYSE

Amex Equities, with certain technical changes. Specifically, for

consistency with Exchange rules, the Exchange proposes to change all

references to ``members'' to ``member organizations.'' The Exchange

proposes that these changes, including new Rule 2232--NYSE Amex

Equities, be effective on the same date as FINRA makes FINRA Rule 2232

effective.\10\

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

    \9\ Rule 409(f)--NYSE Amex Equities would be marked as

``Reserved'' until such time as NYSE Rule 409 is fully harmonized

with FINRA rules. The Exchange notes that FINRA has proposed a rule

change that would result in the deletion of the remaining text of

FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rule 409. See Securities Exchange Act

Release No. 59921(May 14, 2009), 74 FR 23912 (May 21, 2009) (SR-

FINRA-2009-028).

    \10\ See FINRA Regulatory Notice 10-62. The implementation date

is currently scheduled for June 17, 2011. NYSE also has submitted a

companion rule filing amending its rules in accordance with FINRA's

rule changes. See SR-NYSE-2011-26.

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

2. Statutory Basis

    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),\12\ 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 Exchange

believes that the proposed rule change supports the objectives of the

Act by providing greater harmonization between NYSE Amex Rules and

FINRA Rules of similar purpose, resulting in less burdensome and more

efficient regulatory compliance. To the extent the Exchange has

proposed changes that differ from the FINRA version of the Rules, such

changes are technical in nature and do not change the substance of the

proposed NYSE Amex Rules.

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

    \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

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

    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

    The Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section

19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \13\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\14\

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 prior to

30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as

the Commission may designate, if consistent with the protection of

investors and the public interest, the proposed rule change has become

effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act and Rule 19b-

4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.

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

    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).

    \14\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).

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

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) normally does

not become operative prior to 30 days after

the date of the filing.\15\ However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),

the Commission may designate a shorter time if such action is

consistent with the protection of investors and the public

interest.\16\ The Exchange has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day

operative delay so that the proposal may become operative immediately

upon filing. In its filing, the Exchange notes that the proposal to add

new Rule 2232--NYSE Amex Equities is substantially similar to the rule

that the Commission approved for FINRA,\17\ and the proposal conforms

the Exchange's Rules with those of FINRA, in furtherance of the

consolidation of the member firm regulation functions of NYSE Amex

Equities, NYSE, and FINRA. For this reason, the Commission believes

that waiving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the

protection of investors and the public interest, and designates the

proposed rule change to be operative upon filing with the

Commission.\18\

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

    \15\ Id.

    \16\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii). In addition, Rule 19b-

4(f)(6)(iii) requires that a self-regulatory organization submit to

the Commission written 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. The Exchange has satisfied this requirement.

    \17\ See note 6, supra.

    \18\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,

the Commission has 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 such 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.

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:

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP19-14-000]

Notice of Availability of the Draft Environmental Impact
Statement for the Proposed Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC Southgate
Project

    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared a draft environmental impact statement (EIS)
for the Southgate Project, proposed by Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC
(Mountain Valley) in the above-referenced docket. Mountain Valley
requests authorization to construct and operate approximately 73 miles
of natural gas transmission pipeline, one new compressor station, and
accompanying facilities that would provide about 375 million cubic feet
per day [MMcf/d]) of available capacity for transport from the City of
Chatham, in Pittsylvania County, Virginia to a delivery point with
Dominion Energy (formerly PSNC) near the City of Graham in Alamance
County, North Carolina.
    The draft EIS assesses the potential environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the Southgate Project in accordance with
the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The
FERC staff concludes that approval of the proposed project would result
in some adverse environmental impacts. However, if the Project is
constructed and operated in accordance with applicable laws and
regulations, the mitigation measures discussed in this EIS, and our
recommendations, these impacts would be reduced to less-than-
significant levels.
    The United States Army Corps of Engineers (COE) and the U.S.
Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) participated
as cooperating agencies in preparation of this draft EIS. Cooperating
agencies have jurisdiction by law or special expertise with respect to
resources potentially affected by the proposal and participate in the
NEPA analysis. The COE would use this EIS in their regulatory process,
and to satisfy compliance with NEPA and other related federal
environmental laws (e.g., the National Historic Preservation Act).
Although the cooperating agencies provided input to the conclusions and
recommendations presented in the draft EIS, the agencies would present
their own conclusions and recommendations in a combined Record of
Decision (ROD) for the Project, if required.
    The draft EIS addresses the potential environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the following project facilities:
     About 73 miles of new 24-inch and 16-inch diameter natural
gas pipeline located in Pittsylvania County, Virginia, and Rockingham
and Alamance Counties, North Carolina.;
     one new 28,915 horsepower compressor station (Lambert
Compressor Station) in Pittsylvania County, Virginia;
     four interconnects or tie-ins with facilities operated by
Mountain Valley, East Tennessee Gas, and Dominion Energy; and
     ancillary facilities including pig launchers and
receivers, mainline block valves (MLV), and cathodic protection beds.
    The Commission mailed a copy of the Notice of Availability of the
draft EIS to federal, state, and local government representatives and
agencies; elected officials; environmental and public interest groups;
Indian Tribes;

potentially affected landowners and other interested individuals and
groups; and newspapers and libraries in the area of the Project. The
draft EIS is available in hard copy at libraries in the area of the
Project and in electronic format. It may be viewed and downloaded from
the FERC's website (www.ferc.gov), on the Environmental Documents page
(https://www.ferc.gov/industries/gas/enviro/eis.asp). In addition, the
draft EIS may be accessed by using the eLibrary link on the FERC's
website. Click on the eLibrary link (https://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/elibrary.asp), click on General Search, and enter the docket number in
the Docket Number field, excluding the last three digits (i.e. CP19-
14). Be sure you have selected an appropriate date range. For
assistance, please contact FERC Online Support at
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or toll free at<PHONE_NUMBER>, or for TTY,
contact<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    Any person wishing to comment on the draft EIS may do so. Your
comments should focus on the draft EIS's disclosure and discussion of
potential environmental effects, reasonable alternatives, and measures
to avoid or lessen environmental impacts. The more specific your
comments, the more useful they will be. To ensure consideration of your
comments on the proposal in the final EIS, it is important that the
Commission receive your comments on or before 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on
September 16, 2019.
    For your convenience, there are four methods you can use to submit
your comments to the Commission. The Commission will provide equal
consideration to all comments received, whether filed in written form
or provided verbally. The Commission encourages electronic filing of
comments and has staff available to assist you at<PHONE_NUMBER> or

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

    The primary goal of these comment sessions is to provide the public
with another method for identifying specific environmental issues and
concerns with the draft EIS. Individual verbal comments will be taken
on a one-on-one basis with a court reporter. This format is designed to
receive the maximum amount of verbal comments in a convenient way
during the timeframe allotted.
    Each comment session is scheduled from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. EST.
You may arrive at any time after 5:00 p.m. There will not be a formal
presentation by Commission staff when the session opens. If you wish to
speak, the Commission staff will hand out numbers in the order of your
arrival; distribution of numbers will be discontinued at 7:00 p.m. in
order to ensure all comments are received by the session closing time.
However, if no additional numbers have been handed out and all
individuals who wish to provide comments have had an opportunity to do
so, staff may conclude the session at 7:00 p.m. Please see appendix 1
for additional information on the session format and conduct.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The appendices referenced in this notice will not appear in
the Federal Register. Copies of the appendices were sent to all
those receiving this notice in the mail and are available at
www.ferc.gov using the link called eLibrary or from the Commission's
Public Reference Room, 888 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20426, or
call<PHONE_NUMBER>. For instructions on connecting to eLibrary,
refer to the last page of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Your verbal comments will be recorded by the court reporter (with
FERC staff or representative present) and become part of the public
record for this proceeding. Transcripts will be publicly available on
FERC's eLibrary system (see below for instructions on using eLibrary).
If a significant number of people are interested in providing verbal
comments in the one-on-one settings, a time limit of 3 to 5 minutes may
be implemented for each commentor.
    It is important to note that verbal comments hold the same weight
as written or electronically submitted comments. Although there will
not be a formal presentation, Commission staff will be available
throughout the comment session to answer your questions about the FERC
environmental review process.
    Any person seeking to become a party to the proceeding must file a
motion to intervene pursuant to Rule 214 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedures (18 CFR part 385.214). Motions to intervene are
more fully described at http://www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/intervene.asp. Only intervenors have the right to seek rehearing or
judicial review of the Commission's decision. The Commission grants
affected landowners and others with environmental concerns intervenor
status upon showing good cause by stating that they have a clear and
direct interest in this proceeding which no other party can adequately
represent. Simply filing environmental comments will not give you
intervenor status, but you do not need intervenor status to have your
comments considered.

Records Governing Off-the-Record Communications; Public Notice

January 13, 2006.
    This constitutes notice, in accordance with 18 CFR 385.2201(b), of
the receipt of prohibited and exempt off-the-record communications.
    Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222, September 22, 1999) requires Commission
decisional employees, who make or receive a prohibited or exempt off-
the-record communication relevant to the merits of a contested
proceeding, to deliver to the Secretary of the Commission, a copy of
the communication, if written, or a summary of the substance of any
oral communication.
    Prohibited communications are included in a public, non-decisional
file associated with, but not a part of, the decisional record of the
proceeding. Unless the Commission determines that the prohibited
communication and any responses thereto should become a part of the
decisional record, the prohibited off-the-record communication will not
be considered by the Commission in reaching its decision. Parties to a
proceeding may seek the opportunity to respond to any facts or
contentions made in a prohibited off-the-record communication, and may
request that the Commission place the prohibited communication and
responses thereto in the decisional record. The Commission will grant
such a request only when it determines that fairness so requires. Any
person identified below as having made a prohibited off-the-record
communication shall serve the document on all parties listed on the
official service list for the applicable proceeding in accordance with
Rule 2010, 18 CFR 385.2010.
    Exempt off-the-record communications are included in the decisional
record of the proceeding, unless the communication was with a
cooperating agency as described by 40 CFR 1501.6, made under 18 CFR
385.2201(e)(1)(v).
    The following is a list of off-the-record communications recently
received by the Secretary of the Commission. The communications listed

    k. Description of Request: Alaska Electric Light and Power Company
(AEL&P) proposes to convert 0.3 mile of the Annex Creek development's
12-mile-long, 23-kilovolt overhead transmission line to an underground
transmission line. Pursuant to an amendment order issued in 1999,
approximately 1 mile of the 12-mile-long transmission line was buried
in the summer of 2000. The proposed underground section of transmission
line would extend from the previously buried section of line located on
the west side of Powerline Ridge and transition back to the existing
overhead line near the location of Camp 6. The proposed underground
line route would remain within both the Tongass National Forest and the
existing project boundary. AEL&P proposes to change the transmission
line from overhead to underground due to the harsh weather conditions
that regularly damage this section of line.
    l. Locations of the Application: This filing may be viewed on the
Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/elibrary.asp.
