General Comment:May 12, 2014

Dear Mr. Zeller:

I have been a consumer of e-cigarettes for a few years now and would like to request an extension of the comment period for the Food and Drug Administration's ("FDA") Proposed Rule Deeming Tobacco Products to be Subject to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Family Smoking and Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (the "Proposed Rule") published at 79 Fed. Reg. 23,142 and Federal Register No. 2014-09491. On behalf of myself and my family, I am requesting that the comment period for the Proposed Rule be extended by the FDA for an additional 105 days, from its current 75-day period, to 180 days.

The Proposed Rule raises a number of significant issues and questions that are important and relevant to me, as a consumer of products that are proposed for regulation under the Proposed Rule. The Proposed Rule asks many different questions I might want to respond to.  I’d like to provide my thoughts and comments on many of these issues, but  time is an issue in itself. I don’t feel 75 days is enough time to devote to researching and providing thoughtful comments on these very important issues and questions that the Proposed Rule raises. I have already spent many hours researching and dissecting these issues, but they take time. I know that the FDA took many years to even come up with the Proposed Rule, so I do not think it is at all unreasonable to allow the public a mere six months to comment on it. This is our only opportunity, as consumers, to provide our feedback.

I feel very strongly about e-cigarettes as an alternative to combustible cigarettes. Quite simply, I firmly believe that they saved my life. I wish to provide you with my personal story, as well as science- and evidence-based responses to your questions so that you can take my comment into account. I realize that the FDA has the authority under 21 CFR 10.40 to extend this time frame and that the FDA has exercised this authority on numerous occasions in the past. I would therefore ask that you do so here, so that all stakeholders have the opportunity to provide their comments on this proposed regulation.

I appreciate your consideration of my request and am happy to discuss this issue with you further.

Sincerely, Richard Boehm

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-56600; File No. SR-CBOE-2007-88]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Chicago Board Options Exchange,
Incorporated; Order Granting Approval of Proposed Rule Change To Amend
the Hybrid Opening System Opening Rotations Rules

October 2, 2007.
    On July 25, 2007, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated
(``CBOE'' or ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4
thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to amend its opening rotations
rules conducted via the Hybrid Opening System (``HOSS''). The proposed
rule change was published in the Federal Register on August 29,
2007.\3\ The Commission received no comments on the proposal. This
order approves the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 56302 (August 22,
2007), 72 FR 49752.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    HOSS is the Exchange's automated system for initiating trading at
the beginning of each trading day. The Exchange proposes to amend HOSS
procedures contained in CBOE Rule 6.2B. HOSS procedures currently
provide that HOSS initiates an opening rotation for an options class at
a randomly selected time within a number of seconds after the primary
market \4\ for the underlying security opens (or after 8:30 a.m.
(Central Time) for index options).\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ According to the Exchange, for purposes of CBOE Rule 6.2B,
the Exchange has interpreted the ``primary market'' to be the
primary listing market.
    \5\ According to the Exchange, for purposes of CBOE Rule 6.2B,
the Exchange determines when the underlying market ``opens'', on a
class-by-class basis, to be either the opening trade and/or opening
quote (or whichever occurs first). Once the underlying market opens,
HOSS initiates the overlying option class opening and sends a
Rotation Notice to market participants. Thereafter, HOSS would open
the series of a class in a random order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to permit HOSS to initiate the opening
rotation for an options class after the opening of the underlying
security on: (1) The primary listing market; (2) the primary volume
market,\6\ or (3) the first market to open the underlying security.
Determinations on the particular configuration for the market for the
underlying security would be made on a class-by-class basis by the
appropriate Exchange Procedure Committee and announced to the
membership via a Regulatory Circular.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Proposed CBOE Rule 6.2B(b) would define the primary volume
market as the market with the most liquidity in that underlying
security for the previous two calendar months.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    After a careful review of the proposed rule change, the Commission
finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements
of the Act and the regulations thereunder applicable to a national
securities exchange.\7\ In particular, the Commission believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\8\
which requires that the rules of an exchange be designed to promote
just and equitable principles of trade, 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.
The Commission believes that the proposal will provide

the Exchange more flexibility to determine when to permit the HOSS
opening rotation process to begin, and should contribute to the
Exchange's ability to conduct openings in a fair and orderly manner.
Further, the Commission notes that it previously approved a similar
rule changes for the American Stock Exchange LLC.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ In approving the proposed rule change, the Commission notes
that it has considered the proposed rule's impact on efficiency,
competition, and capital formation. 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \9\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 55272 (February 12,
2007), 72 FR 7779 (February 20, 2007) (approving SR-Amex-2006-77,
permitting the American Stock Exchange LLC to open its trading
rotation once the underlying security has opened for trading in any
market).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\10\ that the proposed rule change (SR-CBOE-2007-88) be, and hereby
is, approved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).

    4. Request for nominations to serve as ad hoc members of FIFRA SAP
for this meeting. As part of a broader process for developing a pool of
candidates for each meeting, FIFRA SAP staff routinely solicits the
stakeholder community for nominations of prospective candidates for
service as ad hoc members of FIFRA SAP. Any interested person or
organization may nominate qualified individuals to be considered as
prospective candidates for a specific meeting. Individuals nominated
for this meeting should have expertise in one or more of the following
areas: Human biomonitoring data and interpretation of such data;
epidemiology (particularly reproductive/developmental, and
environmental), exposure assessment of pesticides (residential and
agricultural worker); route-specific pharmacokinetics (dermal, oral);
physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling (PBPK); cholinergic and
non-cholinergic mechanisms; cholinesterase inhibition; developmental
neurotoxicity; human health risk assessment; organophosphate
pesticides; and pharmacokinetics. [Note: In support of the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) priority of ``Making a Visible
Difference in Communities'' across the country, the Agency is committed
to helping minority, low-income, tribal and other vulnerable
populations improve their health and environment. In an effort to
ensure that the Agency's proposed actions are taking into consideration
input from potential communities with environmental justice concerns,
the EPA is offering an opportunity to provide input on the FIFRA SAP
meeting to address scientific issues associated with ``Chlorpyrifos:
Analysis of Biomonitoring Data.'' The EPA encourages all grass-roots
organizations and residents to submit public comments on this issue
that is being addressed during the FIFRA Scientific Advisory Panel
meeting. The Agency also encourages community environmental justice
advocates to give a voice to their communities by nominating candidates
for consideration to serve on this panel.] Nominees should be
scientists who have sufficient professional qualifications, including
training and experience, to provide expert comments on the scientific
issues for this meeting. Nominees should be identified by name,
occupation, position, address, email address, and telephone number.
Nominations should be provided to the DFO listed under FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT on or before March 23, 2016. The Agency will
consider all nominations of prospective candidates for this meeting
that are received on or before that date. However, final selection of
ad hoc members for this meeting is a discretionary function of the
Agency.
    The selection of scientists to serve on FIFRA SAP is based on the
function of the Panel and the expertise needed to address the Agency's
charge to the Panel. No interested scientists shall be ineligible to
serve by reason of their membership on any other advisory committee to
a Federal department or agency, or their employment by a Federal
department or agency except EPA. Other factors considered during the
selection process include availability of the potential Panel member to
fully participate in the Panel's reviews, absence of any conflicts of
interest or appearance of lack of impartiality, independence with
respect to the matters under review, and lack of bias. Although
financial conflicts of interest, the appearance of lack of
impartiality, lack of independence, and bias may result in
disqualification, the

absence of such concerns does not assure that a candidate will be
selected to serve on the FIFRA SAP. Numerous qualified candidates are
identified for each Panel. Therefore, selection decisions involve
carefully weighing a number of factors including the candidates' areas
of expertise and professional qualifications and achieving an overall
balance of different scientific perspectives on the Panel. The Agency
anticipates selecting approximately 8 ad hoc scientists to have the
collective breadth of experience needed to address the Agency's charge
for this meeting.
    FIFRA SAP members are subject to the provisions of 5 CFR part
2634--Executive Branch Financial Disclosure, Qualified Trusts, and
Certificates of Divestiture, as supplemented by EPA in 5 CFR part 6401.
In anticipation of this requirement, prospective candidates for service
on FIFRA SAP will be asked to submit confidential financial information
which shall fully disclose, among other financial interests, the
candidate's employment, stocks, and bonds, and where applicable,
sources of research support. EPA will evaluate the candidates'
financial disclosure form to assess whether there are financial
conflicts of interest, appearance of a lack of impartiality, or any
prior involvement with the development of the documents under
consideration (including previous scientific peer review) before the
candidate is considered further for service on the FIFRA SAP. Those who
are selected from the pool of prospective candidates will be asked to
attend the public meetings and to participate in the discussion of key
issues and assumptions at these meetings. In addition, they will be
asked to review and to help finalize the meeting minutes. The list of
FIFRA SAP members participating at this meeting will be posted on the
FIFRA SAP Web site at http://www.epa.gov/scipoly/sap or may be obtained
from the OPP Docket at http://www.regulations.gov.

II. Background

A. Purpose of FIFRA SAP

    FIFRA SAP serves as the primary scientific peer review mechanism of
EPA's Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention (OCSPP) and is
structured to provide scientific advice, information and
recommendations to the EPA Administrator on pesticides and pesticide-
related issues as to the impact of regulatory actions on health and the
environment. FIFRA SAP is a Federal advisory committee established in
1975 under FIFRA that operates in accordance with requirements of the
Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C. Appendix). FIFRA SAP is
composed of a permanent panel consisting of seven members who are
appointed by the EPA Administrator from nominees provided by the
National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation.
FIFRA established a Science Review Board (SRB) consisting of at least
60 scientists who are available to the FIFRA SAP on an ad hoc basis to
assist in reviews conducted by FIFRA SAP. As a scientific peer review
mechanism, FIFRA SAP provides comments, evaluations and recommendations
to improve the effectiveness and quality of analyses made by Agency
scientists. Members of the FIFRA SAP are scientists who have sufficient
professional qualifications, including training and experience, to
provide expert advice and recommendation to the Agency.

B. Public Meeting

    Chlorpyrifos (0,0-diethyl-0-3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridyl
phosphorothioate) is a broad-spectrum, chlorinated organophosphate (OP)
insecticide. The FIFRA SAP previously reviewed the human health effects
of chlorpyrifos in 2008 and 2012, and the chlorpyrifos physiologically-
based pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PBPK/PD) model in 2011. At the
2008 and 2012 SAP meetings, the Agency presented information on a
variety of science issues such as inhibition of the enzyme
acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the nervous system, epidemiology studies
in infants and children which suggest that chlorpyrifos and other OPs
impact neurodevelopment, and a growing body of literature with
laboratory animals (rats and mice) indicating that gestational and/or
early postnatal exposure to chlorpyrifos may cause persistent effects
into adulthood. Like other OPs, chlorpyrifos binds to and
phosphorylates the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in both the
central (brain) and peripheral nervous systems. This can lead to
accumulation of acetylcholine and ultimately, at sufficiently high
doses, to clinical signs of toxicity. As recommended by the FIFRA SAP
in 2008 and 2012, the Agency used inhibition of AChE as the critical
effect to derive points of departure for the 2014 human health risk
assessment. However, the 2014 human health risk assessment identified
uncertainty in the degree to which points of departure derived from
AChE inhibition are protective for neurodevelopmental effects in
humans.
    In 2008 and 2012, the FIFRA SAP cautioned the Agency against using
the biomonitoring data from epidemiology studies, particularly those
from Columbia University in this case, to directly derive points of
departure due to uncertainties associated with a lack of knowledge
about timing of indoor chlorpyrifos applications and a single measure
of exposure (cord blood) which were collected by the Columbia
researchers. The concern is that single measures of exposure may not
reflect the entire pregnancy or temporal exposure uncertainty coupled
with unknown windows of susceptibility. The 2012 SAP recommended that
the Agency consider use of a PBPK model to further characterize the
dose estimates in the epidemiology studies. Based on human health risks
identified in the 2014 human health risk assessment, the Agency
published a 2015 proposed tolerance revocation for chlorpyrifos; in
that proposal the Agency noted that the evaluation of the available
biomonitoring was continuing. While EPA would have preferred to
complete that analysis prior to commencing rulemaking, the timing for
the proposal was directed by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th
Circuit, which ordered EPA to respond to an administrative petition to
revoke all chlorpyrifos tolerances by October 31, 2015. In any case, at
this point in time, the Agency's analysis of biomonitoring data from
cord blood collected as part of the Columbia University epidemiology
studies has progressed to a point where peer review would be useful.
Specifically, the Agency has done additional characterization of the
pharmacokinetic profile of simulated exposures from oral and dermal
exposures using the PBPK model. Based on this evaluation, the Agency
now believes the cord blood data are sufficiently robust for deriving
points of departure. The Agency will solicit comment from the SAP on
the evaluation of biomonitoring data using the PBPK model, proposed
points of departure and extrapolation/uncertainty factors, and examples
of a proposed approach to use the PBPK model to simulate internal doses
from current exposure patterns from drinking water, food and worker
exposure.

C. FIFRA SAP Documents and Meeting Minutes

    EPA's background paper, related supporting materials, charge/
questions to FIFRA SAP, FIFRA SAP composition (i.e., members and ad hoc
members for this meeting), and the meeting agenda will be available by
approximately mid-March. In addition, the Agency may provide additional
background documents as the materials become

available. You may obtain electronic copies of these documents and
certain other related documents that might be available at http://www.regulations.gov and the FIFRA SAP Web site at http://www.epa.gov/scipoly/sap.
    FIFRA SAP will prepare meeting minutes summarizing its
recommendations to the Agency approximately 90 days after the meeting.
The meeting minutes will be posted to the FIFRA SAP Web site or may be
obtained from the OPP Docket at http://www.regulations.gov.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-82883; File No. SR-LCH SA-2018-001]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; LCH SA; Order Granting Approval on
an Accelerated Basis of Proposed Rule Change Relating to Self-
Referencing Transactions

March 15, 2018.

I. Introduction

    On January 31, 2018, Banque Centrale de Compensation, which
conducts business under the name LCH SA (``LCH SA''), filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to
Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act''),\1\
and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change (SR-LCH SA-2018-
001) to amend its CDS Clearing Supplement and its CDS Clearing
Procedures in order to allow for the clearance and settlement of client
transactions referencing the client's clearing broker, as well as to
amend its Clearing Supplement to provide for the clearance of the
Standard European Senior Non Preferred Financial Corporate Transaction
type, and to make certain clarifying amendments.\3\ The proposed rule
change was published for comment in the Federal Register on February
15, 2018.\4\ The Commission did not receive comments on the proposed
rule change. For the reasons discussed below, the Commission is
approving the proposed rule change on an accelerated basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ Capitalized terms used in this order, but not defined
herein, have the same meaning as in the LCH SA Rules, CDS Clearing
Supplement, or CDS Clearing Procedures.
    \4\ Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34-82675 (February 9,
2018), 83 FR 6915 (February 15, 2018) (SR-LCH SA-2018-001)
(``Notice'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change

    As currently constructed, LCH SA's rules prohibit certain ``self-
referencing'' transactions. Specifically, LCH SA prohibits, in the case
of a house transaction,\5\ the clearing of single-name credit default
swap (``SN CDS'') transactions where the reference entity underlying
the SN CDS is the Clearing Member, or an affiliate of the Clearing
Member, that is clearing the transaction. In the case of a client
transaction, LCH SA currently prohibits clearing of a transaction in
which the reference entity underlying the SN CDS is the client (or an
affiliate of the client), or the clearing broker (or affiliate of the
clearing broker) of the client that is clearing the CDS transaction.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ A house transaction is any Cleared Transaction registered in
the House Trade Account of a Clearing Member. A House Trade Account,
in turn, is an account opened by LCH SA at the request and in the
name of a Clearing Member within the Account Structure of the
Clearing Member in the CDS Clearing System in order to register
Cleared Transactions cleared by such Clearing Member for its own
account. See Section 1.1.1, Terms defined in the CDS Clearing Rule
Book, LCH SA CDS Clearing Rule Book, 4 January 2018.
    \6\ Notice, 83 FR at 6915.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Under the proposed rule change, LCH SA would permit the clearing of
client transactions where the reference entity underlying the SN CDS is
the clearing broker, or an affiliate of the clearing broker, of the
client clearing the transaction. Specifically, LCH SA would amend
Section 4 of its CDS Clearing Procedures to revise the eligibility
requirement for SN CDS to make a distinction between house and client
self-referencing transactions in order to permit clients to clear CDS
where the underlying reference entity is the client's clearing broker
or an affiliate

thereof.\7\ House transactions where the underlying reference entity is
the Clearing Member clearing the transaction would remain prohibited.
In addition, client transactions where the underlying entity is the
client clearing the transaction (or an affiliate of the client) will
continue to be prohibited.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Id.
    \8\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    LCH SA also proposed to amend provisions in its Clearing Supplement
that address self-referencing transactions to provide that a clearing
broker would not be required to notify LCH SA when a client transaction
occurs where the underlying reference entity is the clearing broker of
the client clearing the transaction, but would continue to be required
to notify LCH SA when a client transaction occurs where the underlying
reference entity is the client that is clearing the transaction.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ Id. at 6915-16.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition to the changes regarding self-referencing transactions
described above, LCH SA proposed amendments to the CDS Clearing
Supplement to add (i) a reference to the Standard European Senior Non
Preferred Corporate transaction type, (ii) to add a missing reference
to the Standard European Financial Corporate transaction type, and
(iii) to make certain clarifying edits regarding the underlying index
transaction of a cleared index swaption transaction.\10\ LCH SA stated
that no changes would need to be made to its risk methodology in
connection with the addition of a reference to the Standard European
Senior Non Preferred Corporate transaction type, as the risks specific
to this transaction type would be captured by the framework developed
for HoldCo entities that LCH SA previously implemented.\11\

III. Discussion and Commission Findings

    Section 19(b)(2)(C) of the Act directs the Commission to approve a
proposed rule change of a self-regulatory organization if it finds that
such proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to such
organization.\12\ For the reasons given below, the Commission finds
that the proposal is consistent with Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(C).

    Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act requires, among other things, that
the rules of a registered clearing agency be designed to promote the
prompt and accurate clearance and settlement of securities transactions
and, to the extent applicable, derivative agreements, contracts, and
transactions, to assure the safeguarding of securities and funds which
are in the custody or control of the clearing agency or for which it is
responsible and, in general, to protect investors and the public
interest.\13\ For the reasons stated below, the Commission finds that
the proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of Section
17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1(b)(3)(F).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission has reviewed the terms and conditions of the
contracts that LCH SA intends to clear pursuant to the proposed rule
change and has determined that they are substantially similar to other
contracts currently cleared by LCH SA, the key difference being, with
respect to the Standard European Senior Non Preferred Corporate
transaction type, that the reference obligation underlying such
contracts represent a new debt class. In the case of the client ``self-
referencing'' transactions, the key difference will be that the
underlying reference entity will be the clearing broker, or an
affiliate of the clearing broker, of the client clearing the
transaction.
    Based on a review of the Notice, LCH SA's Clearing Procedures and
Clearing Supplement, the Commission believes that LCH SA's existing
clearing arrangements and related financial safeguards, protections and
risk management procedures will apply to these new transaction types on
a substantially similar basis as other contracts currently cleared by
LCH SA. In addition, the Commission believes that, as a result of
accepting client transactions where the underlying reference entity is
the clearing broker (or affiliate of the clearing broker) of the
client, such transactions, which are currently executed in the
bilateral market and uncleared, will now be eligible to be cleared and
benefit from the operational efficiencies and risk management
protections available in connection with central clearing.
    Therefore, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is
consistent with the requirements of Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the act
regarding the prompt and accurate clearance and settlement of
securities transactions and, to the extent applicable, derivative
agreements, contracts, and transactions, the safeguarding of securities
and funds which are in the custody or control of the clearing agency or
for which it is responsible and, in general, to protect investors and
the public interest.
    Section 19(b)(2)(C)(iii) of the Act allows the Commission to
approve a proposed rule change earlier than 30 days after the date of
publication of the notice of the proposed rule change where the
Commission finds good cause for so doing and publishes the reason for
the finding.\14\ The Commission finds good cause, pursuant to Section
19(b)(2)(C)(iii) of the Act, for approving the proposed rule change on
an accelerated basis prior to the 30th day after the date of
publication of the notice in the Federal Register in order to
facilitate the clearing of the Standard European Senior Non-Preferred
Financial Corporate transaction type, which the Commission understands
market participants will commence trading beginning on March 20, 2018
\15\ and which are tied to European capital and resolution regulations.

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

IV. Conclusion

    On the basis of the foregoing, the Commission finds that the
proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the Act and
in particular with the requirements of Section 17A of the Act \16\ and

[Release No. 34-79682; File No. SR-FINRA-2016-048]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a
Proposed Rule Change To Eliminate Fees for Historical Trade Data
Accessed Through the FINRA ADDS Web Site

December 23, 2016.
    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 December 20, 2016, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
(``FINRA'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``SEC''
or ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I,
II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by FINRA. FINRA has
designated the proposed rule change as ``establishing or changing a
due, fee or other charge'' under Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act \3\
and Rule 19b-4(f)(2) thereunder,\4\ which renders the proposal
effective upon receipt of this filing by the Commission. The Commission
is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule
change from interested persons.

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

    FINRA is proposing to amend FINRA Rules 7510, 7710 and 7730 to
eliminate the fees for historical trade data accessed through the FINRA
Automated Data Delivery System (``FINRA ADDS'') Web site relating to
trades reported to the Alternative Display Facility (``ADF''), OTC
Reporting Facility (``ORF'') and Trade Reporting and Compliance Engine
(``TRACE'').
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on FINRA's Web
site at http://www.finra.org, at the principal office of FINRA 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, FINRA 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. FINRA has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A,
B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    FINRA ADDS is a data delivery system that provides members, by
market participant identifier (``MPID''), access to trade journal files
containing key information regarding the member's trades reported to
the ADF, ORF and TRACE. FINRA ADDS also provides member clearing firms
access to data regarding their correspondents' trades reported to the
ORF. Members use the trade journal files to reconcile the trade
information captured by their own systems and the information captured
by the FINRA trade reporting systems. Members can access FINRA ADDS
data via the secure FINRA ADDS Web site and via Secure File Transfer
Protocol (``SFTP'').
    Pursuant to Rules 7510(d), 7710(c) and 7730(g), FINRA makes recent
ADF, ORF and TRACE trade journals available for free and offers
subscribers the option of receiving historical data and retrieving data
automatically via SFTP for a fee.\5\ Specifically, a member has access
via the FINRA ADDS Web site to ADF, ORF or TRACE trade data associated
with its MPID for the three prior business days (ADF and ORF) or 30
prior business days (TRACE) free of charge without having to subscribe
and pay for additional optional data services.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ FINRA notes that a member that subscribes to the optional
FINRA ADDS services via the FINRA ADDS Web site or SFTP for ADF, ORF
and TRACE data pays three separate fees under Rules 7510(d), 7710(c)
and 7730(g).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, members can subscribe to receive their data for dates
older than the most recent three or 30 business days through the Data
Delivery Plus service for a monthly fee. Through this service,
subscribers can access up to two years of trade journal files via the
FINRA ADDS Web site. The fee is charged per month to an MPID that is a
subscriber for Data Delivery Plus reports (``Plus Reports''), which are
provided in response to requests by the MPID. The monthly fees for ORF
and TRACE data are based on the subscriber's reported volume and the
number of Plus Reports the subscriber receives, and for ADF data, the
fees are based on the number of Plus Reports the subscriber receives.
The ORF and TRACE fees range from a low of $10 to a high of $100 a
month, and the ADF fees range from a low of $60 to a high of $100 a
month. Thus, subscribers' fees may vary during a calendar year,
depending on the number of reports FINRA makes available to the
subscriber in response to the subscriber's requests. Clearing firms
that subscribe to access their correspondents' historic ORF data pay a
flat fee of $150 per Clearing Number per month, irrespective of the
number of reports received.
    FINRA is proposing to amend Rules 7510(d), 7710(c) and 7730(g) to
eliminate the fees for historical data through the FINRA ADDS Web site.
As such, all trade journals (recent and historical for up to two years)
through the FINRA ADDS Web site will be free of charge.\6\ The proposed
rule change will enable all ADF, ORF and TRACE participants to look up
their historical trade data free of charge via the FINRA ADDS Web site
to reconcile with transaction and clearing data captured by their own
systems.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ FINRA notes that the proposed rule change does not modify
the fees for FINRA ADDS data delivered via SFTP under Rules 7510(d),
7710(c) and 7730(g).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FINRA believes that the proposed rule change will assist members in
meeting their trade reporting and trade management obligations and will
not result in any burden on members. The overall revenue that FINRA
collects from fees for Plus Reports through the FINRA ADDS Web site is
de minimis, and as such, FINRA does not believe that the fees warrant
the administrative burden of calculating members' fees based on
reported volume and number of reports under the current fee schedule.
In addition, the proposed rule change would eliminate the uncertainty
of the current fee schedule for members, whose fees may vary according
to the number of Plus Reports the member requests. Under the proposed
rule change, members will be able to request an unlimited number of
reports through the FINRA ADDS Web site at no charge.
    FINRA has filed the proposed rule change for immediate
effectiveness. The operative date will be January 3, 2017.
2. Statutory Basis
    FINRA believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 15A(b)(5) of the Act,\7\ which requires, among
other things, that FINRA rules provide for the equitable allocation of
reasonable dues, fees and other charges among members and issuers and
other persons using any facility or system that FINRA operates or
controls. All similarly situated members are subject to the same fee
structure and access to the ADF, ORF and TRACE is offered on fair and
non-discriminatory terms. FINRA believes that the proposed rule change
provides for the equitable allocation of reasonable fees in that it
will eliminate a fee and enable all ADF, ORF and TRACE participants to
access their trade data through the FINRA ADDS Web site at no charge.
Thus, all ADF, ORF and TRACE participants will have the ability to look
up their historical trade data via the FINRA ADDS Web site to reconcile
with transaction and clearing data captured by their own systems.
Members will continue to have the option of subscribing and paying for
FINRA ADDS data delivered via SFTP, if they prefer automated retrieval
of their trade data.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    FINRA does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. FINRA believes that the
proposed rule change, by eliminating the fee for historical ADF, ORF
and TRACE data via the FINRA ADDS Web site and enabling all ADF, ORF
and TRACE participants to access their trade data at no charge, will
assist members in meeting their trade reporting and trade management
obligations and will not result in any burden on members. To the extent
that the fees that are being proposed to be eliminated were viewed as
burdensome among market participants, those participants may choose to
utilize the data accessed through the FINRA ADDS Web site to reconcile
with transaction and clearing data captured by their own systems, which
would permit members to mitigate any direct or indirect costs imposed
by the inability to reconcile such data.

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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

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

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \8\ and paragraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-4
thereunder.\9\ 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. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule should be approved or disapproved.

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 95

[Docket No.30850; Amdt. No. 501]

IFR Altitudes; Miscellaneous Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This amendment adopts miscellaneous amendments to the required
IFR (instrument flight rules) altitudes and changeover points for
certain Federal airways, jet routes, or direct routes for which a
minimum or maximum en route authorized IFR altitude is prescribed. This
regulatory action is needed because of changes occurring in the
NationalAirspace System. These changes are designed to provide for the
safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace under instrument
conditions in the affected areas.

DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, July 26, 2012.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rick Dunham, Flight Procedure
Standards Branch (AMCAFS-420), Flight Technologies and Programs
Division, Flight Standards Service, FederalAviation Administration,
Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma
City, OK 73169 (Mail Address: P.O. Box 25082 Oklahoma City, OK 73125)
telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This amendment to part 95 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 95) amends, suspends, or revokes IFR
altitudes governing the operation of all aircraft in flight over a
specified route or any portion of that route, as well as the changeover
points (COPs) for Federal airways, jet routes, or direct routes as
prescribed in part 95.

The Rule

    The specified IFR altitudes, when used in conjunction with the
prescribed changeover points or those routes, ensure navigation aid
coverage that is adequate for safe flight operations and free of
frequency interference. The reasons and circumstances that create the
need for this amendment involve matters of flight safety and
operational efficiency in the National Airspace System, are related to
published aeronautical charts that are essential to the user, and
provide for the safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace. In
addition, those various reasons or circumstances require making this
amendment effective before the next scheduled charting and publication
date of the flight information to assure its timely availability to the
user. The effective date of this amendment reflects those
considerations. In view of the close and immediate relationship between
these regulatory changes and safety in air commerce, I find that notice
and public procedure before adopting this amendment are impracticable
and contrary to the public interest and that good cause exists for
making the amendment effective in less than 30 days.

Conclusion

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore--(1) is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policiesand Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and
(3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Newton & Breslin study (1983)

Is the Newton & Breslin study scientifically sound, providing reliable
data?

If so, is the Newton & Breslin study relevant to an assessment of the
proposition that exposures to pyrethrins/pyrethroids may be associated
with asthmatic or allergic respiratory responses?

If so, what limitations of the Newton & Breslin study should be taken
into account by EPA in assessing the proposition that exposures to
pyrethrins/ pyrethroids may be associated with asthmatic or allergic
respiratory responses?

Is there clear and convincing evidence that the conduct of the Newton &
Breslin study was fundamentally unethical, or that its conduct was
significantly deficient relative to standards prevailing when it was
conducted?
