LT2ESWTR Toolbox Guidance Manual Proposal Draft C 1 June 2003 Appendix C Measuring Ozone Residual Accurate ozone residual data will allow the calculation of correct log inactivation values and maintain optimized performance. Ozone residual measurements might be inaccurate if sampled or measured incorrectly. Residual measurement Quality Assurance ( QA) issues include:

1. Configuration of the ozone sample collection lines within the contactor, 2. Stability of the indigo trisulfonate reagent when analyzing grab samples, and 3. Standardization and maintenance of on line ozone analyzers.

C. 1 Sample Collection The ozone residual in water decays rapidly. The half life ranges from less than 1 minute to more than 20 minutes. Ozone contactors are sealed vessels with sample lines that penetrate the walls or roof structure of the contactor. The detention times in the sample lines should be as short as possible in order to minimize ozone residual decay ( loss) in the sample lines.

The ozone residual profile in a contactor will vary significantly depending on the method of operation, water quality and water flow conditions ( e. g., HDT). A separate sample port located at the outlet of each chamber within the contactor allows maximum flexibility for sampling ozone residual over variable operating conditions. Sample ports located at the outlets of diffusion chambers should be placed to ensure the diffusers do not interfere with the collected sample.

The inlet to the sample pipe inside the ozone contactor should be located directly in the main flow stream, such as shown in Figure C. 1. The inlet should extend into the contactor sufficiently in order to obtain a representative sample ( i. e. about ¼ to ½ of the contactor width). Gas bubbles might be carried into the sample inlet and cause errors in the residual measurement. A sample inlet tube that is flared and that is turned either upward or opposite the flow of the water ( depending on the location) reduces the potential for entrapment of gas bubbles. However in highly turbid waters, a vertical inlet and flared configuration might result in clogging due to solids deposition inside the line. In these cases a compromise is to position the sample line such that the inlet is horizontal rather than vertical. Appendix C   Measuring Ozone Residual LT2ESWTR Toolbox Guidance Manual Proposal Draft C 2 June 2003 Figure C. 1 Example Sample Locations in an Over/ Under Baffled Bubble Diffuser Contactor Ozone 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 SFA Reactive Zone [ minimum of 4 consecutive chambers] Counter Curr Dissolution C CSTR React Chamber First Dissolu Chamber Sample location in flow stream ( typical). Inlet is located at a distance of ¼ to ½ of the contactor width. Inlet might be upward and flared, or might be horizontal.

Minimizing the travel time through the sample line is important, especially when the ozone decay rate is high ( i. e., ozone half life is short). It is desirable to minimize the travel time so that the ozone decay is < 10 percent. Figure C. 2 shows the relationship between simulated sample line travel time and ozone residual loss for various ozone half life values. For example, the travel time in the sample line should be less than 10 seconds if the ozone half life is one minute, in order to maintain the ozone residual loss at or below 10 percent.

HL = 30 sec HL = 1 min HL = 2 min HL = 5 min Ozone Half live The sample line diameter should be large enough ( minimum 3/ 8th inch inside diameter and preferably ½  in to ¾  inch) to minimize clogging of the line with suspended solids. Sample pipe diameter and flow rate should be selected in order to:

1. Maintain consistent flow without plugging 2. Minimize detention time in the sample line 3. Meet flow rate requirements of an on line analyzer installed at that location Gravity flow is all that is necessary to meet sample flow requirements in most locations. In other cases, pumping is necessary. Sample lines might contain some gas bubbles as well as liquid. It is important to ensure that lines are vented in high spots where gas binding might occur. Gaseous ozone in high concentrations is hazardous to breathe. Sample line vents and drains should be directed away from occupied areas.

Some of these points are touched upon in Section O. 3.2 of Appendix O of the SWTR Guidance Manual ( 1991).

C. 2 Ozone Residual Measurement Ozone residual is determined using the Indigo Method ( Standard Methods 4500 Ozone   20th Edition, 1998) when analyzing grab samples. The method assumes that high purity reagents Appendix C   Measuring Ozone Residual LT2ESWTR Toolbox Guidance Manual Proposal Draft C 4 June 2003 are used. Since the publication of the 20th Edition, several reports ( Gordon et al., 2000a and 2000b; Rakness et al., 2001; Rakness and Hunter, 2001; and Rakness et al., 2002) have been published discussing a potential biasing in the Indigo Method. The potential biasing involves the value of the so called " sensitivity factor", f, as defined in the Standard Method. In short, these reports suggest that the actual sensitivity factor might be lower than the Standard Method's value, and hence the calculated ozone concentration will be undervalued.

The Standard method's proportionality constant, f, ( 0.42 L mg 1cm 1) that is used to calculate the ozone residual is based on an indigo trisulfonate molar absorbance,  , of 20,000 M 1 cm 1. These recent reports suggest that f may not be constant and may depend on:

1. The source and age of the neat indigo trisulfonate solid 2. The age and handling of the indigo stock solution that is prepared as part of the method Briefly, these reports indicate that, due to either of the above aspects, f can be substantially lower than 0.42 L mg 1cm 1. In other words, the molar absorbance can be much lower than 20,000 M 1cm 1. Gordon et al. ( 2000a and 2000b), Rakness et al. ( 2001), Rakness and Hunter ( 2001), and Rakness et al. ( 2002) reported that the apparent molar absorbance of some indigo stock solutions might be as low as 11,000 M 1cm 1, and in an extreme case 6,000 M 1cm 1. The authors suggest that the ramifications of applying an f value of 0.42 L mg 1cm 1 when the solution has a lower true f value are the underestimation of the ozone concentration.

These issues are not completely resolved at the time of the writing of this guidance manual. However, the evidence is suggestive enough to warrant a new recommended QA control concerning the quality of the indigo stock solution. Should changes in the Standard Method be approved prior to issuing the final version of this guidance, those changes will be discussed.

The gravimetric indigo trisulfonate method is fairly easy to apply in the field and is accurate. It should be noted that the method described herein is somewhat different than the 20th Edition of Standard Methods in that the volume of both the blank and the samples are determined gravimetrically. The procedural steps include:

1. Prepare indigo stock solution as described in Standard Methods 2. Prepare Reagent II solution ( for ozone residuals greater than 0.05 mg/ L), as described in Standard Methods.

3. Prepare flasks for sampling.

3.1. Clean, dry and label several 125 mL Erlenmeyer flasks ( enough for each sample plus one blank). Appendix C   Measuring Ozone Residual LT2ESWTR Toolbox Guidance Manual Proposal Draft C 5 June 2003 3.2. Obtain the tare weight of each flask.

4. Add 10.0 mL of Reagent II solution to each flask.

5. Add approximately 90 mL of distilled water to one or two flasks and use these flasks as the blank ( i. e., use value from one blank or average of values from two blanks).

6. Collect ozone sample.

6.1. Thoroughly flush sample line to be used.

6.2. Do not run sample down the side of the flask, as this will cause ozone off gassing.

6.3. Fill flask with sample, gently swirling flask until a light blue color remains. Do not bleach completely or the residual value will be incorrect.

7. Wipe dry the outside of sample and blank flasks.

8. Weigh sample and blank flasks.

8.1. Total weight for sample is tare weight of flask plus 10 mL indigo plus added sample.

8.2. Total weight for blank is tare weight of flask plus 10 mL indigo plus added distilled water.

9. Prepare the spectrophotometer for measuring absorbance.

9.1. Identify the cell path length ( e. g., 1 cm, 5 cm, etc.).

9.2. Set the wavelength to 600 nanometers.

10. Measure absorbance of blank and samples within four hours.

10.1. Follow instructions for spectrophotometer concerning zeroing the instrument.

10.2. Record absorbance of each sample and each blank.

11. Complete calculations   see example below.

Example:

A 10 mL aliquot of Reagent II solution was added to a 125 mL Erlenmeyer flask that was used for the blank. The flask had a tare weight of 83.62 g. The final weight of the flask, plus the 10 mL aliquot of reagent, plus the added distilled water was 179.77 g. The total volume of the 10 mL Reagent II aliquot plus added distilled water was determined by subtracting the bottle's tare weight from the total weight, assuming that 1 mL of liquid weighs 1 g ( 96.15 mL = [ 179.77 g   83.62 g] * 1 mL / 1 g).

The spectrophotometer had a path length of 1 cm. The absorbance reading of the gravimetric blank was measured as 0.234 cm 1 at wavelength of 600 nm. This reading must be Appendix C   Measuring Ozone Residual LT2ESWTR Toolbox Guidance Manual Proposal Draft C 6 June 2003 corrected for the difference in the volume of the blank used in order to check the quality of the reagent. The calculated absorbance of a 1: 100 blank dilution can be determined using Equation C 1. In this case, the 1: 100 absorbance value was 0.225 cm 1, which is greater than or equal to 0.225 cm 1. This means that the indigo trisulfonate solution was considered acceptable.

     The 125 mL flask that was used for the ozone sample had a tare weight of 94.10 g. Sample water was directed into the 10 mL of Reagent II solution until a light blue color remained. The final weight of the flask, plus the 10 mL aliquot plus the sample, was 167.39 g. The absorbance reading at a path length of 1 cm was 0.159. The volume of the water sample was 63.29 mL ( 63.29 mL = [ 167.39 g   94.10 g   10 g] * 1 mL / 1 g). The ozone residual was calculated using Equation C 2, which resulted in a value of 0.41 mg/ L.

This makes it possible to automate the disinfection credit calculation using the plant's computer control system. However, the analyzers must be maintained properly and their calibration must be checked periodically so that readings match grab sample results that are based on the indigo trisulfonate procedure. Generally, probe type monitor readings tend to drift downward over time due to weakening of the electrolyte solution. Calibration checks should be conducted regularly, such as at least once per week. This section describes a calibration check protocol which involves collecting grab samples and analyzer readings simultaneously and comparing the values.

The calibration check should consist of collecting at least three, and preferably five, ozone residual grab samples and corresponding analyzer readings. The following calibration protocol has been used successfully at operating ozone facilities.

1. Collect three to five grab sample ozone residuals. Obtain an analyzer reading while the grab sample is being collected. Wait 15 seconds to 30 seconds between each pair of grab sample and analyzer reading.

2. Measure the ozone residual concentration in the grab samples using the indigo trisulfonate method.

3. Calculate the average grab sample ozone residual value and the average analyzer ozone residual value.

4. Compare the average of the on line analyzer to that of the indigo grab samples. The average of the on line analyzer cannot deviate more than 10% or 0.05 mg/ L ( which ever is largest) from the grab sample average. If the average of the on line analyzer deviates more than this, then adjust the meter reading per the manufacturer's instructions. Note that this QA control is two sided. It is especially important that the on line analyzer not record more than 10% or 0.05 mg/ L greater than the grab samples. However, a negative deviation ( negative bias), while not effecting public safety, may also be useful as an indication of a malfunctioning unit.

5. Allow the analyzer to stabilize for a period of 30 minutes after adjusting the meter reading and repeat steps 1 through 4 until the difference calculated in step 4 is < 10% of the grab sample average and < 0.05 mg/ L.

Date:	May 5, 2021
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Subject: April 28, 2021 Conference Call with the State of Rhode Island Representatives
On April 28, 2021 EPA held a conference call with representatives from the State of Rhode Island to discuss the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants from PERC Dry Cleaning Facilities (Dry Cleaning NESHAP).  The following people participated in the call:
Joe Carola, State of Rhode Island, Compliance
Ciaran Imbusch, State of Rhode Island, Permitting
Chris Walusiak, State of Rhode Island, Office of Compliance and Technical Assistance
Brian Storey, Project Lead
Keith Barnett, MMG Group Leader
Ryan Callihan, Economist
Steven McLeod, RTI
The following information was shared with the group on the call regarding Rhode Island's management of dry-cleaning facilities.
    There were approximately 83 perc dry cleaning facilities in the State of Rhode Island in 2006, and there are approximately 39 current sources in the State.  None of these are major sources. No new per machines purchased and install in recent years.
    Many facilities switching from perc to other solvents such as hydrocarbons, K4, Green Earth, and petroleum.
    Many facilities have consolidated operations, turning previous perc users to drop-off facilities, where garments are collected at various sites and then transferred to a central location where cleaning takes place.
    Some facilities have closed all together due to economic challenges.
    Some of the problems encountered during inspections were noted to be related to language barriers, for example, understanding where to purchase colorimetric detection tubes.  Additionally, lack of the proper recordkeeping was also noted.
    The most common alternative solvent in use in the State is high flash point hydrocarbons.
    Mostly close loop 4th and 5th generation machines (less than five 5th generation machines)

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change

A. Background

1. FINRA Rules 4111 (Restricted Firm Obligations) and 9561 (Procedures
for Regulating Activities Under Rule 4111)
    FINRA Rule 4111 established an annual process to designate as
``Restricted Firms'' member firms that present a high degree of risk to
the investing public, based on numeric thresholds of firm-level and
individual-level disclosure events, and then impose on such firms a
``Restricted Deposit Requirement'' \7\ or, in addition or in the
alternative, conditions or restrictions on the member firm's operations
that are necessary or appropriate to protect investors and the public
interest.\8\ According to FINRA, the rule was designed to protect
investors and the public interest by strengthening the tools available
to FINRA to address the risks posed by member firms with a significant
history of misconduct.\9\ FINRA stated that it creates incentives for
firms to change behaviors and activities, either to avoid being
designated or re-designated as a Restricted Firm.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Rule 4111(i)(15) (definition of ``Restricted Deposit
Requirement''). A firm subject to a Restricted Deposit Requirement
will be required to establish a Restricted Deposit Account and
deposit in that account cash or qualified securities with an
aggregate value that is not less than the member firms's Restricted
Deposit Requirement. See Rule 4111(a); 4111(i)(14) (definition of
``Restricted Deposit Account'').
    \8\ See Exchange Act Release No. 92525 (July 30, 2021), 86 FR
42925 (August 5, 2021) (Order Approving File No. SR-FINRA-2020-041,
as Modified by Amendment Nos. 1 and 2) and Exchange Act Release No.
92525 (July 30, 2021), 86 FR 49589 (September 3, 2021) (Order
Approving File No. SR-FINRA-2020-041) (Correction) (collectively,
``Rule 4111 Order''). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 9561(a)(1), FINRA's
Department of Member Regulation (``Department'') shall issue a
notice of its determination under Rule 4111 that a firm is a
Restricted Firm and the requirements, conditions or restrictions to
which the Restricted Firm is subject.
    \9\ See Rule 4111 Order, 86 FR at 42926.
    \10\ See id. at 42926 and 42932.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FINRA Rule 9561 established expedited proceedings that: (1) provide
firms an opportunity to challenge any requirements the Department has
imposed, including any Restricted Deposit Requirements, by requesting a
prompt review of its decision in the Rule 4111 process; and (2) address
a member firm's failure to comply with any requirements imposed under
Rule 4111.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See id. at 42931.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. FINRA Rule 8312 (FINRA BrokerCheck Disclosure)
    FINRA Rule 8312 (FINRA BrokerCheck Disclosure) governs the
information about current and former registered broker-dealers and
their associated persons that FINRA releases to the public through its
BrokerCheck system.\12\ Information available to investors through
BrokerCheck includes, among other things, information reported on the
most recently filed registration forms \13\ (with limited exceptions)
for both firms and registered individuals, and summary information
about certain arbitration awards against a firm involving a securities
or commodities dispute with a public customer.\14\ This information
includes a description of where and when the firm was established,
people and entities that own controlling shares or directly influence
the firm's daily operations, the name and succession history for
current or former firms, the firm's active licenses and registrations,
the types of businesses it conducts, information about arbitration
awards and disciplinary matters, and information as to whether a
particular member firm is subject to the provisions of the Taping Rule,
among other information and disclosures.\15\ FINRA stated that
BrokerCheck helps investors make informed choices about the brokers and
member firms with which they conduct business by providing

registration and disciplinary history to investors at no charge.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ According to FINRA, users of BrokerCheck include, among
others, investors, member firms and other entities in the financial
services industry, regulators, and individuals registered as brokers
or seeking employment in the brokerage industry. See Notice, 87 FR
at 36553. FINRA requires member firms to inform their customers of
the availability of BrokerCheck. See Rule 2210(d)(8) (requiring that
each of a member firm's websites include a readily apparent
reference and hyperlink to BrokerCheck on the initial web page that
the member firm intends to be viewed by retail investors and any
other web page that includes a professional profile of one or more
registered persons who conduct business with retail investors) and
Rule 2267 (requiring member firms to provide to customers the FINRA
BrokerCheck Hotline Number and a statement as to the availability to
the customer of an investor brochure that includes information
describing BrokerCheck); see also Notice, 87 FR at note 12 and
accompanying text. The BrokerCheck website is available at
brokercheck.finra.org. See Notice, 87 FR at note 11.
    \13\ These registration forms are the Uniform Application for
Securities Industry Registration or Transfer (Form U4), the Uniform
Termination Notice for Securities Industry Registration (Form U5),
the Uniform Disciplinary Action Reporting Form (Form U6), the
Uniform Application for Broker-Dealer Registration (Form BD), and
the Uniform Request for Broker-Dealer Withdrawal (Form BDW). See
Notice, 87 FR at note 13; see also Rule 8312(b)(2)(A).
    \14\ See Notice, 67 FR at 36552.

    \16\ See id. at 36552.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Proposed Amendments to Rule 8312

    The proposed rule change would amend Rule 8312 to release
information on BrokerCheck as to whether a particular member firm or
former member firm is currently designated as a Restricted Firm
pursuant to Rules 4111 and 9561. Information that a firm is currently a
Restricted Firm would be displayed in BrokerCheck on both a firm's
summary report and detailed report. Specifically, those reports would
include the text, ``This firm is currently designated as a Restricted
Firm pursuant to FINRA Rule 4111 (Restricted Firm Obligations),'' in a
color or font that is prominent. The alert also would include the text

BrokerCheck while that firm is designated as a Restricted Firm. This
Restricted Firm status would remain displayed while a Rule 9561

be stayed during a Rule 9561 expedited proceeding.\18\ When a firm is
no longer designated as a Restricted Firm, no historical information
would be displayed on BrokerCheck that the firm was a Restricted
Firm.\19\

    The Commission is instituting proceedings pursuant to Section
19(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange Act to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be approved or disapproved.\20\ Institution of
proceedings is appropriate at this time in view of the legal and policy
issues raised by the proposed rule change. Institution of proceedings
does not indicate that the Commission has reached any conclusions with
respect to the proposed rule change.

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

    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange Act, the Commission
is providing notice of the grounds for disapproval under
consideration.\21\ The Commission is instituting proceedings to allow
for additional analysis and input concerning whether the proposed rule

IV. Request for Written Comments

    The Commission requests that interested persons provide written
submissions of their views, data, and arguments with respect to the
issues identified above, as well as any other concerns they may have
with the proposed rule change. In particular, the Commission invites
the written views of interested persons concerning whether the proposed
rule change is consistent with the Exchange Act and the rules
thereunder.
    Although there do not appear to be any issues relevant to approval
or disapproval that would be facilitated by an oral presentation of
views, data, and arguments, the Commission will consider, pursuant to
Rule 19b-4, any request for an opportunity to make an oral
presentation.\22\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \22\ Section 19(b)(2) of the Exchange Act, as amended by the
Securities Acts Amendments of 1975, Public Law 94-29, 89 Stat. 97
(1975), grants the Commission flexibility to determine what type of
proceeding--either oral or notice and opportunity for written
comments--is appropriate for consideration of a particular proposal
by a self-regulatory organization. See Securities Acts Amendments of
1975, Report of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban
Affairs to Accompany S. 249, S. Rep. No. 75, 94th Cong., 1st Sess.
30 (1975).

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc.; Notice of
Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change To Amend
Rule 19.8, Long-Term Options Contracts

November 30, 2018.
    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 November 23, 2018, Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (``Exchange'' or ``BZX
Options'') 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 Exchange. 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

    Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or ``BZX Options'')
proposes to amend Rule 19.8, Long-Term Options Contracts. The text of
the proposed rule change is provided below.
    (additions are italicized; deletions are [bracketed])
* * * * *
Rules of Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc.
* * * * *
Rule 19.8. Long-Term Options Contracts
    [(a)] Notwithstanding conflicting language in Rule 19.6 (Series of
Options Contracts Open for Trading), the Exchange may list long-term
options contracts that expire from twelve (12) to thirty-nine (39)
months from the time they are listed. There may be up to ten (10)
additional expiration months for options on SPY and up to six (6)
additional expiration months for all other option classes. Strike price
interval, bid/ask differential and continuity rules shall not apply to
such options series until the time to expiration is less than nine (9)
months.
* * * * *
    The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the
Exchange's website (http://www.cboe.com/AboutCBOE/CBOELegalRegulatoryHome.aspx), at the Exchange'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 amend Rule 19.8, Long-Term Option
Contracts, to permit the listing and trading of up to ten (10) long-
term expiration months for long-term options on the SPDR[supreg] S&P
500[supreg] exchange-traded fund (``SPY'') in response to customer
demand.\3\ Rule 19.8 currently provides that the Exchange may list
long-term option contracts that expire from twelve (12) to thirty-nine
(39) months from the time they are listed (``long-term expiration
months''). There may be up to six (6) long-term expiration months per
option class.\4\ The proposal will add liquidity to the SPY options
market by allowing market participants to hedge risks relating to SPY
positions over a longer period with a known and limited cost.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The proposed rule change also deletes the paragraph letter
(a) in Rule 19.8, as there is only one paragraph in the Rule, making
a paragraph letter unnecessary. In contrast to Rule 19.8, Rule
29.11(b)(1)(A) (which applies to index options) permits the Exchange
to list long-term index options series based on either the full or
reduced value of the underlying index, adding up to ten (10)
expiration months. The Exchange seeks to list ten (10) long-term
expiration months on SPY, just as it now may list ten (10)
expiration months on long-term index option series, in order to
provide investors with a wider choice of investments.
    \4\ Pursuant to rule 19.8, strike price interval, bid/ask
differential, and continuity rules do not apply to such options
series until the time to expiration is less than nine (9) months.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The SPY options market today is characterized by its tremendous
daily and annual liquidity. As a consequence, the Exchange believes
that the listing of additional SPY long-term expiration months would be
well received by investors. This proposal to expand the number of
permitted SPY long-term expiration months would not apply to long-term
expiration months on any other class of options.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Historically, SPY is the largest and most actively traded
ETF in the United States as measured by its assets under management
and the value of shares traded.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to implement the proposed rule change on the
date of this rule filing.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'') and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular,
the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\6\ Specifically, the
Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the
Section 6(b)(5) \7\ requirements that the rules of an exchange be
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 regulating, clearing,
settling, processing information with respect to, and facilitating
transactions in

securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a
free and open market and a national market system, and, in general, to
protect investors and the public interest. Additionally, the Exchange
believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Section
6(b)(5) \8\ requirement that the rules of an exchange not be designed
to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or
dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \8\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In particular, the proposed rule change offers market participants
additional long-term expiration months on SPY options for their
investment and risk management purposes. The proposal is intended
simply to provide additional trading opportunities which have been
requested by customers, thereby facilitating transactions in options
and contributing to the protection of investors and the maintenance of
fair and orderly markets. The proposed rule change responds to the
continuing needs of market participants, particularly portfolio
managers and other institutional customers, by providing protection
from long-term market moves and by offering an alternative to hedging
portfolios with future positions or off-exchange customized derivative
instruments.
    Rule 19.8 has permitted up to six (6) long-term expiration months
in option classes since the launch of BZX Options in 2010. Other
exchanges, such as Nasdaq PHLX LLC (``Phlx''), have permitted up to six
``LEAPS'' since 1991, when it increased the number of permissible
expiration months from four to six. As noted by Phlx (in its recent
proposal to permit up to ten LEAPS expiration months for options on
SPY), when the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ``Commission'')
approved the increase to six expiration months, the Commission stated
that it did not believe that increasing the number of expiration months
to six would cause, by itself, a proliferation of expiration months.
The Commission also required that Phlx monitor the volume of additional
options series listed as a result of the rule change, and the effect on
Phlx's system capacity and quotation dissemination displays.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 84449 (October 18,
2018), 83 FR 53699 (October 24, 2018)(SR-Phlx-2018-64); see also
Securities Exchange Act Release No. 29103 (April 18, 1991), 56 FR
19132 (April 25, 1991) (approving SR-Phlx-91-18).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that the addition today of four (4)
additional long-term expiration months on SPY options likewise does not
represent a proliferation of expiration months, but is instead a very
modest expansion of long-term options in response to stated customer
demand. Significantly, the proposal would feature new long-term
expiration months in only a single class of options that are very
liquid and heavily traded, as discussed above. Additionally, the
Exchange notes by way of precedent, that ten (10) expiration months are
already permitted for long-term index options series. Further, the
Exchange has the necessary systems capacity to support the new SPY
long-term expiration months.

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. The proposal merely provides
investors additional investment and risk management opportunities by
providing flexibility to the Exchange to list additional long-term
options expiration series, expanding the number of SPY long-term
expiration months offered on the Exchange from six (6) long-term
expiration months to ten (10) long-term expiration months. Other
options exchanges currently permit the listing of ten (10) long-term
expiration months for SPY.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See, e.g., Phlx Rule 1012(a)(i)(D); Miami International
Securities Exchange, LLC (``MIAX'') Rule 406(a); and NYSE Arca, Inc.
(``Arca'') Rule 6.4-O(d)(i).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange neither solicited nor received comments on the
proposed rule change.

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, it has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \11\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6) thereunder.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \12\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii)
requires a self-regulatory organization to give 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 Commission has waived this requirement in this case.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \13\ normally
does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the
filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\14\ the Commission
may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has asked
the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that the proposal
may become operative upon filing. The Exchange's proposal would conform
the Exchange's rules relating to the permitted number of long term
expiration months for long-term options on SPY to those of other
exchanges.\15\ Accordingly, the Commission believes that the proposal
raises no new or novel regulatory issues, and waiver of the 30-day
operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the
public interest. The Commission therefore waives the 30-day operative
delay and designates the proposal operative upon filing.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ Id.
    \14\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \15\ See supra note 10.
    \16\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,
the Commission has also 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 the 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

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

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi Frank,</p>

<p class=MsoNormal> </p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Sorry for the delayed response. To answer your question (as
I understand it), The compliance date is 1/6/2014 for existing sources and they
will have up to 180 days from that compliance date to conduct their performance
test. Hope this answers your question, please let me know if you have any
further questions. I will be out of the office until 8/13, but will respond
asap as soon as I return.</p>
