SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-90507; File No. SR-MIAX-2020-36]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Miami International Securities
Exchange, LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a
Proposed Rule Change To Delay Implementation of an Amendment to Rule
518, Complex Orders, To Permit Legging Through the Simple Market

November 24, 2020.
    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 20, 2020, Miami International Securities Exchange, LLC
(``MIAX Options'' or the ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (``Commission'') a proposed rule change as
described in Items I, II, and III 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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 Exchange is filing a proposal to delay implementation of the
change to allow a component of a complex order \3\ that legs into the
Simple Order Book \4\ to execute at a price that is outside the
NBBO.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ A ``complex order'' is any order involving the concurrent
purchase and/or sale of two or more different options in the same
underlying security (the ``legs'' or ``components'' of the complex
order), for the same account, in a ratio that is equal to or greater
than one-to-three (.333) and less than or equal to three-to-one
(3.00) and for the purposes of executing a particular investment
strategy. Mini-options may only be part of a complex order that
includes other mini-options. Only those complex orders in the
classes designated by the Exchange and communicated to Members via
Regulatory Circular with no more than the applicable number of legs,
as determined by the Exchange on a class-by-class basis and
communicated to Members via Regulatory Circular, are eligible for
processing. See Exchange Rule 518(a)(5).
    \4\ The ``Simple Order Book'' is the Exchange's regular
electronic book of orders and quotes. See Exchange Rule 518(a)(15).
    \5\ The term ``NBBO'' means the national best bid or offer as
calculated by the Exchange based on market information received by
the Exchange from the appropriate Securities Information Processor
(``SIP''). See Exchange Rule 518(a)(14).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
website at http://www.miaxoptions.com/rule-filings/ at MIAX Options'
principal office, 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
    On October 22, 2019, the Exchange filed a proposed rule change to
amend subsection (c)(2)(iii) of Exchange Rule 518, Complex Orders, to
remove the provision which provides that a component of a complex order
that legs into the Simple Order Book may not execute at a price that is
outside the NBBO.\6\ The proposed rule change indicated that the
Exchange would announce the implementation date of the proposed rule
change by Regulatory Circular to be published no later than 90 days
following the operative date of the proposed rule. The implementation
date will be no later than 90 days following the issuance of the
Regulatory Circular. The Exchange delayed the implementation of this
functionality until the fourth quarter of 2020.\7\ The Exchange now
proposes to delay the implementation of this functionality until the
second quarter of 2021.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Securities Exchange Release No. 87440 (November 1,
2019), 84 FR 60117 (November 7, 2019) (SR-MIAX-2019-45).
    \7\ See Securities Exchange Release No. 88691 (April 20, 2020),
85 FR 23092 (April 24, 2020) (SR-MIAX-2020-07).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes this delay in order to allow the Exchange to
re-prioritize its software delivery and release schedule as a result of
a shift in priorities resulting from the impact the coronavirus
pandemic has had on Exchange operations. The Exchange will issue a
Regulatory Circular notifying market participants at least 45 days
prior to implementing this functionality.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act \8\ in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act \9\ in particular, in that it
is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices,
to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster
cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in regulating,
clearing, settling, processing information with respect to, and
facilitating transactions in, securities, to remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanisms of a free and open market and a national market
system and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest by
allowing the Exchange additional time to implement the proposed
functionality.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange's proposal to
delay the implementation of the proposed functionality does not impose
an undue burden on competition. Delaying the implementation will simply
allow the Exchange additional time to properly plan and implement the
proposed functionality.

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 after the date of the filing, or such
shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become effective
pursuant to 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \10\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \11\
thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
requires a self-regulatory organization to give the Commission
written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change at
least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed
rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission.
The Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

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

    The Exchange proposes to extend the effective date of the amended
rule governing the Exchange's Directed Order process on the Boston
Options Exchange (``BOX'') from November 30, 2009 to February 26, 2010.
The text of the proposed rule change is available from the principal
office of the Exchange, at the Commission's Public Reference Room and
also on the Exchange's Internet Web site at http://
nasdaqomxbx.cchwallstreet.com/NASDAQOMXBX/Filings/.

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
    On March 14, 2006, the Exchange proposed an amendment to the BOX
Rules governing the Directed Order \5\ process on BOX.\6\ The Rules
were amended to clearly state that the BOX Trading Host identifies to
an Executing Participant (``EP'') the identity of the firm entering a
Directed Order. The amended rule was to be effective until June 30,
2006, (``Pilot Program'') while the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') considered a corresponding Exchange proposal \7\ to
amend its rules to permit EPs to choose the firms from whom they will
accept Directed Orders, while providing complete anonymity of the firm
entering a Directed Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meanings prescribed within the BOX Rules.
    \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 53516 (March 20,
2006), 71 FR 15232 (March 27, 2006) (SR-BSE-2006-14).
    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 53357 (February 23,
2006), 71 FR 10730 (March 2, 2006) (SR-BSE-2005-52).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On June 20, 2006, the Exchange proposed extending the effective
date of the rule governing its Directed Order process on BOX from June
30, 2006 to September 30, 2006,\8\ while the Commission continued to
consider the corresponding Exchange proposal.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 54082 (June 30,
2006), 71 FR 38913 (July 10, 2006) (SR-BSE-2006-29).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On September 11, 2006, January 16, 2007, July 2, 2007, January 18,
2008, January 26, 2009 and May 21, 2009 the Exchange proposed extending
the effective date of the amended rule governing the Directed Order
process on BOX from September 30, 2006 until January 31, 2007,\9\ from
January 31, 2007 until July 31, 2007,\10\ from July 31, 2007 until
January 31, 2008,\11\ from January 31, 2008 until January 31, 2009,\12\
from January 31, 2009 until May 29, 2009,\13\ and from May 29, 2009
until November 30, 2009,\14\ respectively, while the Commission
considered the corresponding Exchange proposal to amend the BOX Rules
to permit EPs to choose the firms from whom they will accept Directed
Orders, while providing complete anonymity of the firm entering a
Directed Order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 54469 (September 19,
2006), 71 FR 56201 (September 26, 2006) (SR-BSE-2006-38).
    \10\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 55139 (January 19,
2007), 72 FR 3448 (January 25, 2007) (SR-BSE-2007-01).
    \11\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 56014 (July 5,
2007), 72 FR 38104 (July 12, 2007) (SR-BSE-2007-31).
    \12\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 57195 (January 24,
2008), 73 FR 5610 (January 30, 2008) (SR-BSE-2008-04).
    \13\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59311 (January 28,

    \14\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59983 (May 27,
2009), 74 FR 26445 (June 2, 2009) (SR-BX-2009-027).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This filing from the Exchange again proposes extending the
effective date of the amended rule governing its Directed Order process
on BOX, from November 30, 2009 to February 26, 2010.\15\ In the event
the Commission reaches a decision with respect to the corresponding
Exchange proposal to amend the BOX Rules before February 26, 2010, the
amended rule governing the Directed Order process on the BOX will cease
to be effective at the time of that decision.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ In the event that the issue of anonymity in the Directed
Order process is not resolved by February 26, 2010 the Exchange will
consider whether to submit another filing under Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
extending this rule and system process.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Basis
    The amended rule is designed to clarify the information contained
in a Directed Order. This proposed rule filing seeks to extend the
amended rule's effectiveness from November 30, 2009 to February 26,
2010. This extension will afford the Commission the necessary time to
consider the Exchange's corresponding proposal to amend the BOX rule to
permit EPs to choose the firms from whom they will accept Directed
Orders while providing complete anonymity of the firm entering a
Directed Order. Accordingly, the Exchange believes that the proposal is
consistent with the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act,\16\ in
general, and Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\17\ in particular, in that it
is designed 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 for a free and open market and a national
market system and, in general, to protect investors and the public
interest.

    \17\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose

any burden on competition 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 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: (1) Does not
significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (2) does not impose any significant burden on competition;
and (3) by its terms does not become operative for 30 days after the
date of this filing, or such shorter time as the Commission may
designate if consistent with the protection of investors and the public
interest, the proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A) \18\ of the Act and Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
thereunder.\19\ As required under Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\20\ the
Exchange provided the Commission with 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 the filing of the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \19\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \20\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \21\ normally
may not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of filing.
However, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) \22\ permits the Commission to designate
a shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest. The Exchange requests that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative delay, as specified in Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii),\23\ which would make the rule change effective and
operative upon filing. The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day
operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the
public interest because such waiver would continue to conform the BOX
rules to BOX's current practice and clarify that Directed Orders on BOX
are not anonymous without interruption.\24\ Accordingly, the Commission
designates the proposed rule change operative upon filing with the
Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \21\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \22\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \23\ Id.
    \24\ For purposes only of waiving the operative delay for this
proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact
on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule
change, the Commission 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.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The FDA is issuing this draft guidance to clarify the FDA's
recommendations for testing and information to include in 510(k)
submissions for PTA catheters and specialty catheters to promote
consistency across submissions. These devices are catheter-based
devices intended to treat lesions in the peripheral vasculature. This
draft guidance expands on the FDA's current thinking for testing of PTA
balloon catheters and specialty catheters (e.g., infusion catheters,
PTA balloon catheters for ISR, scoring/cutting balloons), and provides
specific recommendations regarding performance testing and anatomy-
specific assessments. This document supplements other FDA documents
regarding the specific content requirements of premarket submissions.

II. Significance of Guidance

    This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good
guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when
finalized, will represent the current thinking of FDA on ``Peripheral
Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) and Specialty Catheters--
Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions; Draft Guidance for
Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff.'' It does not
establish any rights for any person and is not binding on FDA or the
public. You can use an alternative approach if it satisfies the
requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations.

III. Electronic Access

    Persons interested in obtaining a copy of the draft guidance may do
so by downloading an electronic copy from the internet. A search
capability for all Center for Devices and Radiological Health guidance
documents is available at https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/GuidanceDocuments/default.htm. This

I. Background and Purpose

    On October 27, 2016, EPA published in the Federal Register the
``Final Control Techniques Guidelines for the Oil and Natural Gas
Industry'' (81 FR 74798). The CTG provided information to state, local,
and tribal air agencies to assist them in determining reasonably
available control technology (RACT) for volatile organic compounds
(VOC) emissions from select oil and natural gas industry emission
sources. CAA section 182(b)(2)(A) requires that for ozone nonattainment
areas classified as Moderate or above, states must revise their SIPs to
include provisions to implement RACT for each category of VOC sources
covered by a CTG document. CAA section 184(b)(1)(B) extends the RACT
obligation to all areas of states within the Ozone Transport Region
(OTR). In addition to Connecticut being classified as nonattainment for
the 2008 and 2015 ozone standards in both the Connecticut portion of
the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island, NY-NJ-CT area and Greater
Connecticut areas, Connecticut is a member state of the OTR. States
subject to RACT requirements are required to adopt controls that are at
least as stringent as those found within the CTG either via the
adoption of regulations, or by issuance of single source orders or
permits that outline what the source is required to do to meet RACT. If
no source for a particular CTG exists within a state, the state must
submit as a SIP revision a negative declaration documenting this fact.

II. Summary of SIP Revision and EPA Analysis

    On December 29, 2020, the Connecticut Department of Energy and
Environmental Protection (DEEP) submitted a negative declaration for
the 2016 Oil and Natural Gas Industry CTG.\1\ The term ``negative
declaration'' means that the state has explored whether any facilities
subject to the applicability requirements of the CTG exist within the
state and concluded that there are no such sources within its borders.
As part of this determination, DEEP reviewed the inventory of sources
for facilities covered by the CTGs, interviewed its field staff, and
searched telephone directories and internet web pages, including other
state government databases, to identify and evaluate sources that might
meet the applicability requirements. Connecticut DEEP ultimately
determined there are no sources covered by this CTG in the State. This
is consistent with EPA's understanding of where sources subject to the
Oil and Natural Gas Industry CTG are located.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ This submittal was part of Connecticut's larger RACT and
Nonattainment New Source Review (NNSR) Certification submittal,
which will be acted upon separately and are not part of this
rulemaking.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    EPA has historically allowed states to submit a negative
declaration for a particular CTG category if the state finds that no
sources exist in the state which would be subject to that CTG. EPA has
addressed the idea of negative declarations numerous times and for
various NAAQS including in the General Preamble to the 1990
Amendments,\2\ the 2006 RACT Q&A Memo,\3\ and the 2008 Ozone
Implementation Rule.\4\ In each of these documents, EPA asserted that
if no sources exist in the nonattainment area for a particular CTG
category, the state would be allowed to submit a negative declaration
SIP revision. This principle also applies to states in the OTR. EPA is
not aware of any information indicating that a facility subject to the
2016 Oil and Natural Gas Industry CTG exists within the State of
Connecticut and so we are proposing to approve Connecticut's negative
declaration into the SIP.

III. Proposed Action

    EPA is proposing to approve Connecticut's negative declaration for
the 2016 Oil and Natural Gas Industry CTG. EPA is soliciting public
comments on the issues discussed in this notice or on other relevant
matters. These comments will be considered before taking final action.
Interested parties may participate in the Federal rulemaking procedure
by submitting written comments to this proposed rule by following the
instructions listed in the ADDRESSES section of this Federal Register.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, 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, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this proposed 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 proposed 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);
     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 Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; 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).
    In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area where 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).

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket ID FEMA-2013-0002; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-8315]

Suspension of Community Eligibility

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule identifies communities where the sale of flood
insurance has been authorized under the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) that are scheduled for suspension on the effective dates
listed within this rule because of noncompliance with the floodplain
management requirements of the program. If the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) receives documentation that the community has
adopted the required floodplain management measures prior to the
effective suspension date given in this rule, the suspension will not
occur and a notice of this will be provided by publication in the
Federal Register on a subsequent date. Also, information identifying
the current participation status of a community can be obtained from
FEMA's Community Status Book (CSB). The CSB is available at http://www.fema.gov/fema/csb.shtm.

DATES: Effective Dates: The effective date of each community's
scheduled suspension is the third date (``Susp.'') listed in the third
column of the following tables.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you want to determine whether a
particular community was suspended on the suspension date or for
further information, contact David Stearrett, Federal Insurance and
Mitigation Administration, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C
Street SW., Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP enables property owners to purchase
Federal flood insurance that is not otherwise generally available from
private insurers. In return, communities agree to adopt and administer
local floodplain management measures aimed at protecting lives and new
construction from future flooding. Section 1315 of the National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits the sale
of NFIP flood insurance unless an appropriate public body adopts
adequate floodplain management measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed in this document no longer meet that
statutory requirement for compliance with program regulations, 44 CFR
Part 59. Accordingly, the communities will be suspended on the
effective date in the third column. As of that date, flood insurance
will no longer be available in the community. We recognize that some of
these communities may adopt and submit the required documentation of
legally enforceable floodplain management measures after this rule is
published but prior to the actual suspension date. These communities
will not be suspended and will continue to be eligible for the sale of
NFIP flood insurance. A notice withdrawing the suspension of such
communities will be published in the Federal Register.
    In addition, FEMA publishes a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) that
identifies the Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) in these communities.
The date of the FIRM, if one has been published, is indicated in the
fourth column of the table. No direct Federal financial assistance
(except assistance pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief
and Emergency Assistance Act not in connection with a flood) may be
provided for construction or acquisition of buildings in identified
SFHAs for communities not participating in the NFIP and identified for
more than a year on FEMA's initial FIRM for the community as having
flood-prone areas (section 202(a) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act
of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4106(a), as amended). This prohibition against
certain types of Federal assistance becomes effective for the
communities listed on the date shown in the last column. The
Administrator finds that notice and public comment procedures under 5
U.S.C. 553(b), are impracticable and unnecessary because communities
listed in this final rule have been adequately notified.
    Each community receives 6-month, 90-day, and 30-day notification
letters addressed to the Chief Executive Officer stating that the
community will be suspended unless the required floodplain management
measures are met prior to the effective suspension date. Since these
notifications were made, this final rule may take effect within less
than 30 days.
    National Environmental Policy Act. This rule is categorically
excluded from the requirements of 44 CFR Part 10, Environmental
Considerations. No environmental impact assessment has been prepared.

    Regulatory Flexibility Act. The Administrator has determined that
this rule is exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act because the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
Section 1315, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits flood insurance coverage unless
an appropriate public body adopts adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement measures. The communities listed no
longer comply with the statutory requirements, and after the effective
date, flood insurance will no longer be available in the communities
unless remedial action takes place.
    Regulatory Classification. This final rule is not a significant
regulatory action under the criteria of section 3(f) of Executive Order
12866 of September 30, 1993, Regulatory Planning and Review, 58 FR
51735.
    Executive Order 13132, Federalism. This rule involves no policies
that have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132.
    Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. This rule meets the
applicable standards of Executive Order 12988.
    Paperwork Reduction Act. This rule does not involve any collection
of information for purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.

proposed rule change. The text of those statements may be examined at

the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared

summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most

significant parts of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and the

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose

    The Exchange proposes to delete NYSE Amex Equities Rule 351(a)-(d)

and Supplementary Material .10 and .13, adopt the text of FINRA Rule

4530, and make certain conforming changes.

Background

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

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

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

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

NYSE, NYSER and FINRA entered into an agreement (the ``Agreement'') to

reduce regulatory duplication for their members by allocating to FINRA

certain regulatory responsibilities for certain NYSE rules and rule

interpretations (``FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules''). NYSE Amex became a

party to the Agreement effective December 15, 2008.\5\

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

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

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

37).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

forth procedures regarding proposed changes by FINRA, NYSE or NYSE

Amex to the substance of any of the Common Rules.

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

    As part of its effort to reduce regulatory duplication and relieve

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

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

reviewing and amending the NASD and FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules in

order to create a consolidated FINRA rulebook.\6\

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

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

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

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

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

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

information about the FINRA rulebook consolidation process, see

FINRA Information Notice, March 12, 2008.

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

    In connection with the rule consolidation efforts between the

Exchange and FINRA, the Commission has recently approved FINRA Rule

4530,\7\ which is modeled after NYSE Rule 351(a)-(d) and NASD Rule

3070.\8\ FINRA Rule 4530 requires member firms to: (1) Report to FINRA

certain specified events and quarterly statistical and summary

information regarding written customer complaints; and (2) file with

FINRA copies of certain criminal actions, civil complaints and

arbitration claims. FINRA uses the information for regulatory purposes

to identify and initiate investigations of firms, offices and

associated persons that may pose a risk. In most cases, the

requirements of FINRA Rule 4530 are based on similar requirements in

the NASD, NYSE and NYSE Amex rules.

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

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 63260 (November 5,

2010), 75 FR 69508 (November 12, 2010) (SR-FINRA-2010-034). See also

Securities Exchange Act Release No. 64560 (May 27, 2011), 76 FR

32246 (June 3, 2011) (SR-FINRA-2011-024).

    \8\ NYSE Amex Equities Rule 351(e) and NYSE Amex Equities Rule

Interpretation 351(e)/01 (Reports of Investigation) govern trade

investigation reporting requirements. NYSE Amex Equities Rules

351(f), 351.11 and 351.12 govern the annual attestation requirement

of the research analyst conflict of interest rules. These provisions

will be addressed as part of the supervision rules and research

analyst conflict of interest rules, respectively. See Regulatory

Notice 08-24 (Proposed Consolidated FINRA Rules Governing

Supervision and Supervisory Controls) and Regulatory Notice 08-55

(FINRA Requests Comment on Proposed Research Registration and

Conflict of Interest Rules). NYSE Amex Equities Rules 351(a)-(d)

would be marked as ``Reserved'' until such time as NYSE Amex

Equities Rule 351 is fully harmonized with FINRA rules.

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

Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to adopt the text of FINRA Rule 4530 as NYSE

Amex Equities Rule 4530, with certain technical changes. For

consistency with Exchange rules, the Exchange proposes to change all

references to ``members'' to ``member organizations'' and add a

definition of ``person associated with a member organization.'' The

Exchange proposes to delete NYSE Amex Equities Rule 351(a)-(d) and

Supplementary Material .10 and .13 and make conforming amendments in

NYSE Amex Equities Rules 342, 401A, and 476A, which contain references

to NYSE Amex Equities Rule 351, and delete an unnecessary cross-

reference in NYSE Amex Equities Rule 311. The Exchange proposes to make

NYSE Amex Equities Rule 4530 effective on the same date as FINRA makes

FINRA Rule 4530 effective.\9\

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

    \9\ See FINRA Regulatory Notice 11-06. The implementation date

is currently scheduled for July 1, 2011. NYSE also has submitted a

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

rule changes. See SR-NYSE-2010-27.

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

2. Statutory Basis

    The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the

Act,\10\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section

6(b)(5),\11\ in particular, in that it is designed to prevent

fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and

equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination

with persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, and to

remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open

market and a national market system. Specifically, the Exchange

believes that the proposed rule changes support the objectives of the

Act by providing greater harmonization between NYSE Amex Rules and

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

efficient regulatory compliance. To the extent the Exchange has

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

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

proposed NYSE Amex Rules.

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

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

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

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will

impose any burden on competition that is not

necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed

Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the

proposed rule change.

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

Commission Action

    The Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section

19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \12\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\13\

Because the proposed rule change does not: (i) Significantly affect the

protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any

significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative prior to

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

the Commission may designate, if consistent with the protection of

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

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

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

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

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).

    \13\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).

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

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \14\ normally

does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the

filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b4(f)(6)(iii),\15\ 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 immediately upon filing.\16\

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

    \14\ Id.

    \15\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii). In addition, Rule 19b-

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

the Commission written notice of its intent to file the proposed

rule change, along with a brief description and text of the proposed

rule change, at least five business days prior to the date of filing

of the proposed rule change, or such shorter time as designated by

the Commission. The Exchange has satisfied this requirement.

    \16\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,

the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact on

efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.

78c(f).

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

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule

change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule

change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or

appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or

otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule

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