SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-54256; File No. SR-NASD-2006-087]

 Self-Regulatory Organizations; National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness
of Proposed Rule Change Relating to NASD Rule 5110 and Certain Other
NASD Rules Amended Pursuant to SR-NASD-2005-087

 August 1, 2006.
    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 July 20, 2006, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
(``NASD'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II,
and III below, which Items have been prepared by the NASD. The NASD
filed the proposed rules change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the
Act \3\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder,\4\ which renders the proposed
rule change effective upon filing with the Commission. NASD proposes to
make the proposed rule change operative on the date on which the Nasdaq
Stock Market LLC (``Nasdaq Exchange'') commences operation as a
national securities exchange for Nasdaq-listed securities.\5\ 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 NASD proposes to (1) amend NASD Rule 5110 to clarify that the
rule is applicable to both Nasdaq and non-Nasdaq exchange-listed
securities; and (2) make technical, non-substantive changes to certain
other NASD rules that were amended by proposed rule change SR-NASD-
2005-087.\6\ Rule 5110 and the other amendments to NASD rules proposed
by SR-NASD-2005-087 will become effective on the date upon which the
Nasdaq Exchange operates as a national securities exchange for Nasdaq-
listed securities. Currently, that date is projected to be August 1,
2006. The text of the proposed rule change is available on the NASD's
Web site (http://www.nasd.com), at NASD's principal office, at the

Commission's Public Reference Room.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The NASD filed SR-NASD-2005-087 on July 11, 2005 and
Amendment No. 1 on June 15, 2006. The Commission approved SR-NASD-
2005-087, as amended, on June 30, 2006. See Securities Exchange Act
Release No. 54084 (June 30, 2006), 71 FR 38935 (July 10, 2006)
(``June 30 Approval Order'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 NASD 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 NASD 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
    On June 30, 2006, the Commission approved SR-NASD-2005-087.\7\
Among other things, in SR-NASD-2005-087, the NASD proposed (1)
amendments to the NASD Delegation Plan, NASD By-Laws and NASD rules to
reflect a proposed phased implementation strategy for the operation of
the Nasdaq Exchange as a national securities exchange with respect to
Nasdaq-listed securities during a transitional period; and (2) rules
for reporting transactions effected otherwise than on an exchange to
the new Trade Reporting Facility. The NASD is filing this proposed rule
change in anticipation of SR-NASD-2005-087 becoming effective to (1)
amend Rule 5110 to clarify that the rule is applicable to both Nasdaq
and non-Nasdaq exchange-listed securities; and (2) make technical, non-
substantive changes to certain other NASD rules that were amended by
SR-NASD-2005-087.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amendments to Rule 5110

    Pursuant to SR-NASD-2005-087, NASD proposed to renumber Rule
6440(i) as Rule 5110 and extend its application to Nasdaq exchange-
listed securities. Currently, the rule prohibits members from
executing, otherwise than on an exchange, a transaction in a security
subject to an initial public offering until such security has first
opened for trading on the national securities exchange listing the
security, as indicated by the dissemination of an opening transaction
in the security by the listing exchange via the Consolidated Tape.
    As described in footnote 23 of the June 30 Approval Order, the NASD
is proposing to amend Rule 5110 to delete the reference to
dissemination of the opening transaction ``via the Consolidated Tape.''
Pursuant to SR- NASD-2005-087, Rule 5110 is intended to apply to both
Nasdaq and non-Nasdaq exchange-listed securities. As such, the
reference in the rule to the Consolidated Tape is too narrow given that
transactions in securities listed on the Nasdaq Exchange are reported
to the Nasdaq Unlisted Trading Privileges Plan.

Technical, Non-Substantive Amendments

    NASD is proposing a number of grammatical and technical, non-
substantive changes to certain NASD rules that were amended by SR-NASD-
2005-087.
    Rules 4120A, 4633 and 6431 give NASD authority to halt trading on
the ADF and trading reported to the Trade Reporting Facility, with
respect to Nasdaq-listed securities, and trading otherwise than on an
exchange with respect to non-Nasdaq exchange-listed securities,
respectively. These rules are intended to be consistent in their
language and application. Accordingly, NASD is proposing to amend Rule
4633(a)(2)(C)(i) and (ii) and Rule 6431(a)(2)(C)(i) and (ii) by
replacing the word ``believes'' with the word ``determines.'' The
proposed change would conform the language of these rules to the
language of Rule 4120A(a)(2)(C)(i) and (ii).\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ Specifically, each rule grants NASD authority to halt trades
in a particular security, including in the event of extraordinary
market activity in the security. Rule 4120A(a)(2)(C)(i) and (ii)
provides that NASD may exercise this authority if it ``determines''
that such activity is caused by the misuse or malfunction of a
system operated by or linked to NASD or a national securities
exchange. In otherwise identical provisions, Rule 4633(a)(2)(C)(i)
and (ii) and Rule 6431(a)(2)(C)(i) and (ii) use the word
``believes'' instead of ``determines.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NASD is also proposing to amend Rule 4633 to change references to
trading halts ``on'' or ``in'' the Trade Reporting Facility to
``reported to'' the Trade Reporting Facility, to clarify that trades
are not executed on the Trade Reporting Facility.
    In addition, SR-NASD-2005-087 inadvertently renumbered
subparagraphs (MM) through (PP) of Rule 2860(b)(2) as (KK) through
(OO). These subparagraphs should have been renumbered (KK) through
(NN). As a result, there currently is no subparagraph (OO). Therefore,
the proposed rule change would renumber the rule's subparagraphs (PP)
through (AAA) as (OO) through (ZZ).
    Finally, several rule changes that were approved by the Commission
and implemented subsequent to the filing of Amendment No. 1 to SR-NASD-
2005-087 change the underlying or proposed text provided in Exhibit 5
of SR-NASD-2005-087. As a result, NASD is proposing changes to the rule
text approved pursuant to SR-NASD-2005-087 to make it consistent with
the other recently approved rule changes. These include the following
rule changes along with the rules affected: SR-NASD-2000-023 amended
Rules 6951 and 6954; SR-NASD-2005-098 amended Rule 6740 (renumbered as
Rule 6640 pursuant to SR-NASD-2005-087); SR-NASD-2006-040 amended Rule
9610; and SR-NASD-2006-080 amended Rule 4901. In addition, the ``Nasdaq
National Market'' was recently renamed the ``Nasdaq Global Market,''
and pursuant to SR-NASD-2006-068, a number of rules were amended to
change ``Nasdaq National Market,'' ``NNM'' or ``Nasdaq National Market
securities'' to ``Nasdaq Global Market,'' ``NGM'' or ``Nasdaq Global
Market securities,'' respectively.
2. Statutory Basis
    NASD believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act,\9\ which requires, among
other things, that NASD rules 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. NASD believes that the proposed rule change relating
to Rule 5110 will result in uniform regulation of securities that are
subject to an initial public offering. In addition, NASD believes that
the proposed rule change will enhance the integrity of the market by
increasing the consistency and clarity of its rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    NASD 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, as amended.

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

    Because the foregoing 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 for 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, it
has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act,\10\
and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\11\ At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \12\ normally
does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of filing.
However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\13\ the Commission may
designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest. The NASD has asked the
Commission to waive the 30-day pre-operative delay. The Commission
believes that such waiver is consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest because it would allow the NASD to
update and clarify its rules.\14\ For this reason, the Commission
designates the proposed rule change to be operative on the date that
the Nasdaq Exchange begins operations as a national securities exchange
for Nasdaq-listed securities.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \14\ For purposes only of accelerating the operative date of
this proposal, the Commission has considered the rule's impact on
efficiency, competition and capital formation. 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \15\ As noted above, the Nasdaq Exchange is currently scheduled
to commence operating as a national securities exchange with respect
to Nasdaq-listed securities on August 1, 2006.

Airworthiness Directives; Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2012-06-
16, which applied to all Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. (Pilatus) Model PC-6,
PC-6-H1, PC-6-H2, PC-6/350, PC-6/350-H1, PC-6/350-H2, PC-6/A, PC-6/A-
H1, PC-6/A-H2, PC-6/B-H2, PC-6/B1-H2, PC-6/B2-H2, PC-6/B2-H4, PC-6/C-
H2, and PC-6/C1-H2 airplanes. AD 2012-06-16 required installing a new
rudder and elevator locking screw and modifying the installation of the
rudder and elevator hinge bolt. Since the FAA issued AD 2012-06-16, the
European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) superseded its mandatory
continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) to correct an unsafe
condition on these products. This AD does not retain any actions
required by AD 2012-06-16 and requires inspecting and modifying the
rudder, elevator, and right-hand (RH) aileron hinge bolt installations.
The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

DATES: This AD is effective January 25, 2022.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of January 25,
2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2012-06-16, Amendment 39-16997 (77 FR
19061, March 30, 2012) (AD 2012-06-16). AD 2012-06-16 applied to all
Pilatus Model PC-6, PC-6-H1, PC-6-H2, PC-6/350, PC-6/350-H1, PC-6/350-
H2, PC-6/A, PC-6/A-H1, PC-6/A-H2, PC-6/B-H2, PC-6/B1-H2, PC-6/B2-H2,
PC-6/B2-H4, PC-6/C-H2, and PC-6/C1-H2 airplanes and required installing
a new elevator and rudder locking screw and modifying the installation
of the elevator and rudder hinge bolt. The NPRM published in the
Federal Register on September 17, 2021 (86 FR 51835).
    The NPRM was prompted by AD 2021-0098, dated April 9, 2021
(referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), issued by EASA, which is the
Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Union. The MCAI
states:

    Occurrences were reported where, on certain PC-6 aeroplanes, the
elevator or the rudders was lost or partially detached during
flight. All the occurrences happened on PC-6 aeroplanes in CONFIG 1.
    This condition, if not corrected, could lead to in-flight
failure of the elevator or rudder attachment, possibly resulting in
reduced control of the aeroplane.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, Pilatus issued SB
55-001 (original issue and Revision 1) to provide rework
instructions for the elevator and rudder hinge bolt locking.
Consequently, EASA published AD 2011-0230 to require this rework.
Subsequently, Pilatus issued recommended SB 55-003 (later revised)
to provide instructions to modify the hinge bolt installation of the
elevator and rudder. This [service bulletin] SB, being recommended
only, had no impact on the existing EASA AD.
    Since that [EASA] AD and the recommended Pilatus SB 55-003 were
published, the latest risk assessment determined that the
modification of the hinge bolt installation of the elevator, rudder
and right-hand (RH) aileron installation must be required to reach
an acceptable level of safety for the affected aeroplanes.
Consequently, Pilatus issued the SB, as defined in this [EASA] AD,
to provide instructions to modify the affected aeroplanes into
CONFIG 2 standard.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD supersedes EASA
AD 2011-0230 and requires, for certain aeroplanes, a one-time
inspection of the elevator and rudder installation, followed by
repetitive inspections of the elevator and rudder, and, depending on
findings, accomplishment of applicable corrective action(s). This
[EASA] AD also requires modification of the elevator, rudder and RH
aileron hinge bolt installations into CONFIG 2, which is the
terminating action for the repetitive inspections required by this
[EASA] AD. Finally, this [EASA] AD prohibits (re)installation of
affected parts.

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2021-
0786.

Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive

Comments

    The FAA received no comments on the NPRM or on the determination of
the costs.

Conclusion

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to
the FAA's bilateral agreement with this State of Design Authority, it
has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and
service information referenced above. The FAA reviewed the relevant
data and determined that air safety requires adopting this AD as
proposed. Accordingly, the FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products. This AD is adopted as proposed in the
NPRM.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Pilatus PC-6 Service Bulletin (SB) No. 55-005,
dated February 25, 2021 (Pilatus SB 55-005). The service information
specifies procedures for repetitively inspecting the hinge bolt
installations and taking any necessary corrective actions until the
hinge bolt is modified. Modifying the hinge bolt installation in
accordance with Pilatus SB 55-005 makes the airplane a CONFIG 2 design.
This service information is reasonably available because the interested
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by
the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

Other Related Service Information

    Pilatus also issued Pilatus PC-6 SB No. 55-003, dated November 29,
2013; Pilatus PC-6 SB No. 55-003, Revision 1, dated December 9, 2014;
Pilatus PC-6 SB No. 55-003, Revision 2, dated January 19, 2017; and
Pilatus PC-6 SB No. 55-003, Revision 3, dated November 6, 2017. This
service information specifies procedures for modifying the hinge bolt
installations, which makes the airplane a CONFIG 2 design. This service
information was superseded by Pilatus SB 55-005.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 50 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary
corrective actions that would be required based on the results of the
mandated inspection. The FAA has no way of determining the number of
airplanes that might need these actions:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, Section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701, General requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket Nos. CP21-1-000; CP21-458-000]

Golden Pass Pipeline, LLC; Notice of Availability of the Draft
Environmental Impact Statement for the Proposed MP66-69 Compression
Relocation and Modification Amendment and the Proposed MP33 Compressor
Station Modification Amendment

    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared a draft environmental impact statement (EIS)
for the MP66-69 Compression Relocation and Modification Amendment and
the MP33 Compressor Station Modification Amendment Project (Project),
proposed by Golden Pass Pipeline Company, LLC (Golden Pass) in the
above referenced dockets.
    Golden Pass requests authorization to amend its certificate of
public convenience and necessity for the Pipeline Expansion Project
(Docket No. CP14-518-000) that was issued by the Commission on December
21, 2016. Golden Pass requests authorization to modify the previously
authorized facilities in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana and Orange County,
Texas.
    The draft EIS assesses the potential environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the Project in accordance with the
requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). With the
exception of climate change impacts, the FERC staff concludes that
approval of the proposed Project, with the mitigation measures
recommended in this EIS, would not result in significant environmental
impacts. FERC staff is unable to determine significance with regards to
climate change impacts.
    The draft EIS incorporates by reference the Commission staff's July
2016 Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) issued in Docket No.
CP14-517-000 and CP14-518-000 for the Golden Pass LNG Export Project
(2016 FEIS) and the Commission's findings and conclusions in its
December 21, 2016 Order.\1\ The draft EIS addresses the potential
environmental effects of the construction and operation of the
following Project facilities:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 40 CFR 1501.7.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

CP21-1-000 (Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana)

     Relocate the approved Compressor Station at Milepost (MP)
66 approximately three miles, to MP69;
     increase the amount of compression at the relocated
compressor station;
     eliminate approved modifications to interconnects at MP63
and MP66;
     minor changes to approved interconnect modifications at
MP68; and
     eliminate the previously approved 3 miles of 24-inch
diameter pipeline loop between MP66 and MP69.

CP21-458-000 (Orange County, Texas)

     Relocate the MP33 Compressor Station approximately fifty
feet north-northwest to avoid an existing pipeline right-of-way based
on a landowner request;
     increase the authorized compression at the MP33 Compressor
Station;
     construct three new interconnects and appurtenant
facilities adjacent to the MP33 Compressor Station; and
     eliminate receipt stations at the existing Texoma delivery
interconnect on Golden Pass's existing system at MP33.
    The Commission mailed a copy of the Notice of Intent to federal,
state, and local government representatives and agencies; elected
officials; environmental and public interest groups; Native American
tribes; potentially affected landowners and other interested
individuals and groups; and newspapers and libraries in the project
area. The draft EIS is only available in electronic format. It may be
viewed and downloaded from the FERC's website (www.ferc.gov), on the
natural gas environmental documents page (https://www.ferc.gov/industries-data/natural-gas/environment/environmental-documents). In
addition, the draft EIS may be accessed by using the eLibrary link on
the FERC's website. Click on the eLibrary link (https://elibrary.ferc.gov/eLibrary/search) select ``General Search'' and enter
the docket number in the ``Docket Number'' field, excluding the last
three digits (i.e., CP21-1 or CP21-458). Be sure you have selected an
appropriate date range. For assistance, please contact FERC Online
Support at [email protected] or toll free at<PHONE_NUMBER>,
or for TTY, contact<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    The draft EIS is not a decision document. It presents Commission
staff's independent analysis of the environmental issues for the
Commission to consider when addressing the merits of all issues in this
proceeding. Any person wishing to comment on the draft EIS may do so.
Your comments should focus on draft EIS's disclosure and discussion of
potential environmental effects, measures to avoid or lessen
environmental impacts, and the completeness of the submitted
alternatives, information and analyses. 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
April 4, 2022.
    For your convenience, there are three 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
[email protected]. Please carefully follow these instructions
so

that your comments are properly recorded.
    (1) You can file your comments electronically using the eComment
feature on the Commission's website (www.ferc.gov) under the link to
FERC Online. This is an easy method for submitting brief, text-only
comments on a project;
    (2) You can file your comments electronically by using the eFiling
feature on the Commission's website (www.ferc.gov) under the link to
FERC Online. With eFiling, you can provide comments in a variety of
formats by attaching them as a file with your submission. New eFiling
users must first create an account by clicking on ``eRegister.'' If you
are filing a comment on a particular project, please select ``Comment
on a Filing'' as the filing type; or
    (3) You can file a paper copy of your comments by mailing them to
the Commission. Be sure to reference the project docket number (CP21-1-
000 or CP21-458-000) on your letter. Submissions sent via the U.S.
Postal Service must be addressed to: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary,
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Room 1A,
Washington, DC 20426. Submissions sent via any other carrier must be
addressed to: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission, 12225 Wilkins Avenue, Rockville, Maryland 20852.
    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 https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/ferc-online/how-guides. 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.

Questions?

    Additional information about the project is available from the
Commission's Office of External Affairs, at (866) 208-FERC, or on the
FERC website (www.ferc.gov) using the eLibrary link. The eLibrary link
also provides access to the texts of all formal documents issued by the
Commission, such as orders, notices, and rulemakings.
    In addition, the Commission offers a free service called
eSubscription that allows you to keep track of all formal issuances and
submittals in specific dockets. This can reduce the amount of time you
spend researching proceedings by automatically providing you with
notification of these filings, document summaries, and direct links to
the documents. Go to https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/overview to
register for eSubscription.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-59171; File No. SR-ISE-2008-9]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; International Securities Exchange,
LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule
Change Relating to Fee Changes

December 29, 2008.
    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 December 23, 2008, the International Securities Exchange, LLC
(the ``Exchange'' or the ``ISE'') filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission the proposed rule change, as described in Items I,
II, and III below, which items have been prepared by the self-
regulatory organization. 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 Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The ISE is proposing to amend its Schedule of Fees to establish
fees for transactions in options on one Premium Product.\3\ The text of
the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Web site
(http://www.ise.com), at the principal office of the Exchange, and at
the Commission's Public Reference Room.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Premium Products is defined in the Schedule of Fees as the
products enumerated therein.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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--The Exchange is proposing to amend its Schedule of Fees
to establish fees for transactions in options on the NASDAQ Q-50 Index
(``NXTQ'').\4\ All of the applicable fees covered by this filing are
identical to fees charged by the Exchange for all other Premium
Products. Specifically, the Exchange is proposing to adopt an execution
fee for all transactions in options on NXTQ.\5\ The amount of the
execution fee for products covered by this filing shall be $0.18 per
contract for all Public Customer Orders \6\ and $0.20 per contract for
all Firm Proprietary orders. The amount of the execution fee for all
ISE Market Maker transactions shall be equal to the execution fee
currently charged by the Exchange for ISE Market Maker transactions in
equity options.\7\ Finally, the amount of the execution fee for all
non-ISE Market Maker transactions shall be $0.45 per contract.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Exchange represents that NXTQ is eligible for options
trading because it meets the standards of ISE Rule 2002(d), which
allows the ISE to begin trading this product by filing Form 19b-4(e)
at least five business days after commencement of trading pursuant
to Rule 19b-4(e) of the Act.
    \5\ These fees will be charged only to Exchange members. Under a
pilot program that is set to expire on July 31, 2009, these fees
will also be charged to Linkage Principal Orders (``Linkage P
Orders'') and Linkage Principal Acting as Agent Orders (``Linkage P/
A Orders''). The amount of the execution fee charged by the Exchange
for Linkage P Orders and Linkage P/A Orders is $0.24 per contract
side and $0.15 per contract side, respectively. See Securities
Exchange Act Release No. 58143 (July 11, 2008), 73 FR 41388 (July
18, 2008) (SR-ISE-2008-52).
    \6\ Public Customer Order is defined in Exchange Rule 100(a)(39)
as an order for the account of a Public Customer. Public Customer is
defined in Exchange Rule 100(a)(38) as a person or entity that is
not a broker or dealer in securities.
    \7\ The Exchange applies a sliding scale, between $0.01 and
$0.18 per contract side, based on the number of contracts an ISE
market maker trades in a month.
    \8\ The amount of the execution fee for non-ISE Market Maker
transactions executed in the Exchange's Facilitation and
Solicitation Mechanisms is $0.19 per contract.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Additionally, the Exchange has entered into a license agreement
with The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc. in connection with the listing and
trading of options on NXTQ. As with certain other licensed options, to
defray the licensing costs, the Exchange is adopting a surcharge fee of
two (2) cents per contract for trading in options on NXTQ. The Exchange
believes charging the participants that trade this instrument is the
most equitable means of recovering the costs of the license. However,
because of competitive pressures in the industry, the Exchange proposes
to exclude Public Customer Orders from this surcharge fee. Accordingly,
this surcharge fee will only be charged to Exchange members with
respect to non-Public Customer Orders (e.g., ISE Market Maker, non-ISE
Market Maker & Firm Proprietary orders) and Linkage Orders. Finally,
since options on NXTQ are not multiply-listed, the Payment for Order
Flow fee shall not apply. The Exchange believes the proposed rule
change will further ISE's goal of introducing new products to the
marketplace that are competitively priced.
    2. Basis--The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is
consistent with the objectives of Section 6 of the

Act,\9\ in general, and furthers the objectives of section 6(b)(4),\10\
in particular, in that 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f.
    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 \11\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(2) \12\ 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.

and Arcland Energy Corp.; Order of Suspension of Trading

October 20, 2011.

since the period ended March 31, 2008.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of
American Enterprise Development Corp. because it has not filed any
periodic reports since the period ended September 30, 2007.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of
Arcland Energy Corp. because it has not filed any periodic reports

protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the
securities of the above-listed companies. Therefore, it is ordered,

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R07-OAR-2021-0171; FRL-10021-33-Region 7]

Air Plan Approval; Nebraska; Revisions to Title 115 of the
Nebraska Administrative Code; Rules of Practice and Procedure

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
approve revisions to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by
the State of Nebraska on September 24, 2020. This proposed action will
amend the SIP to revise title 115 of the Nebraska Administrative Code
``Nebraska Rules of Practice and Procedure.'' Title 115 describes the
procedures the Nebraska Department of Environment and Energy (NDEE),
formerly the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality (NDEQ), will
follow for proceedings under the Administrative Procedure Act. These
proceedings include contested cases, rulemaking petitions, and
declaratory rulings among others. In addition, title 115 contains
procedures related to submission and review of confidentiality claims
for trade secrets, public hearing requirements for permits, and other
fact-finding hearings not covered in other more program specific
regulatory titles. These proposed changes consolidate five chapters
into a single chapter by removing duplicative language and
incorporating by reference model rules of agency procedure promulgated
by the Attorney General for agency use in accordance with the
Administrative Procedure Act. The proposed revisions also update
language; renumber chapters; and make minor wording changes. The
proposed changes do not substantively change any existing statutory or
regulatory requirement or impact the stringency of the SIP or air
quality, do not revise emission limits or procedures, nor do they
impact the State's ability to attain or maintain the National Ambient
Air Quality Standards.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before April 19, 2021.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R07-
OAR-2021-0171 to https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online
instructions for submitting comments.
    Instructions: All submissions received must include the Docket ID
No. for this rulemaking. Comments received will be posted without
change to https://www.regulations.gov/, including any personal
information provided. For detailed instructions on sending comments and
additional information on the rulemaking process, see the ``Written
Comments'' heading of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of this
document.

0171, at https://www.regulations.gov. Once submitted, comments cannot
be edited or removed from Regulations.gov. The EPA may publish any
comment received to its public docket. Do not submit electronically any
information you consider to be Confidential Business Information (CBI)
or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute.
Multimedia submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be accompanied by a
written comment. The written comment is considered the official comment
and should include discussion of all points you wish to make. The EPA
will generally not consider comments or comment contents located
outside of the primary submission (i.e. on the web, cloud, or other
file sharing system). For additional submission methods, the full EPA
public comment policy, information about CBI or multimedia submissions,
and general guidance on making effective comments, please visit https://www.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets.

II. What is being addressed in this document?

    EPA is proposing to amend Nebraska's SIP to include revisions to
title 115 of the Nebraska Administrative Code. The EPA is proposing to
approve revisions to the Nebraska SIP received on September 24, 2020.
The revisions are to Title 115--Nebraska Rules of Practice and
Procedure. These revisions are described in detail in the technical
support document (TSD) included in the docket for this action.
    EPA is proposing approval of these revisions as they do not
substantively change any existing statutory or regulatory requirement.
These revisions do not impact the stringency of the SIP or air quality.

III. Have the requirements for approval of a SIP revision been met?

    The state submission has met the public notice requirements for SIP
submissions in accordance with 40 CFR 51.102. The submission also
satisfied the completeness criteria of 40 CFR part 51, appendix V. The
state provided public notice of the revisions from February 28, 2019,
to April 2, 2019, and held a public hearing on April 3, 2019. The state
received no comments. As explained in more detail in the TSD which is
part of this docket, the SIP revision submission meets the substantive
requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA), including section 110 and
implementing regulations.

IV. What action is the EPA taking?

    The EPA is proposing to amend the Nebraska SIP by approving the
State's request to revise Title 115--Nebraska Rules of Practice and
Procedure. Approval of these revisions will ensure consistency between
state and federally-approved rules. The EPA has determined that these
changes will not adversely impact air quality.
    The EPA is processing this as a proposed action because we are

soliciting comments on this proposed action. Final rulemaking will
occur after consideration of any comments.

V. Incorporation by Reference

    In this action, the EPA is proposing to include regulatory text in
a final rule that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance
with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is proposing to incorporate by
reference the Nebraska Regulations described in the proposed amendments
to 40 CFR part 52 set forth below. EPA has made, and will continue to
make, these materials generally available through www.regulations.gov
and at the EPA Region 7 Office (please contact the person identified in
the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more
information).

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, the EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. Accordingly, this
action merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and
does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state
law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 2,
2017) regulatory action because SIP approvals are exempted under
Executive Order 12866.
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of the National Technology
Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTA) because this rulemaking does not
involve technical standards; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    The SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian reservation land or
in any other area where the EPA or an Indian tribe has demonstrated
that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian country, the
rule does not have tribal implications and will not impose substantial
direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law as specified
by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
