DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

[Docket ID: FEMA-2023-0031; OMB No. 1660-NW157]

Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection,
Comment Request; Generic Clearance for Hazard Mitigation Assistance
Programs

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, Department of Homeland
Security.

ACTION: 60-Day notice of new collection and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, invites
the general public to take this opportunity to comment on a new
information collection. In accordance with the requirements of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this notice seeks comments concerning
a new generic information collection allowing FEMA to individually
update instruments needed to provide financial, non-financial, program
management, and technical assistance for FEMA's major disaster,
emergency response, emergency recovery, and hazard mitigation
activities.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before February 9, 2024.

ADDRESSES: To avoid duplicate submissions to the docket, please submit
comments at http://www.regulations.gov under Docket ID FEMA-2023-0031.
Follow the instructions for submitting comments.
    All submissions received must include the Agency name and Docket
ID. Regardless of the method used to submitting comments or material,
all submissions will be posted, without change, to the Federal
eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov, and will include any
personal information you provide. Therefore, submitting this
information makes it public. You may wish to read the Privacy and
Security Notice that is available via a link on the homepage of http://www.regulations.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jennie Orenstein, Branch Chief, FEMA's
Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration's Policy, Tools and
Training Branch, at [email protected] or<PHONE_NUMBER>. You
may contact the Information Management Division for copies of the
proposed collection of information at email address: [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and
Emergency Assistance Act (Pub. L. 93-288, as amended), 42 U.S.C. 5121-
5207 (Stafford Act) provides broad authority to FEMA for disaster and
emergency relief operations, reducing risk to people and property from
hazards, and related activities and operations. The Stafford Act
authorizes FEMA to provide financial and technical assistance to assist
state, local, territorial, and Tribal (SLTT) governments and certain
private non-profit (PNP) entities with the response to and recovery
from Presidentially declared major disasters and emergencies, and the

implementation of hazard mitigation measures and related activities
that reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property from
hazards and their effects.
    The National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (``NFIA''), as amended,
and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended (42 U.S.C.
4001, et. seq.) authorize FEMA's National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP), including a wide range of related activities. For instance, the
NFIA authorizes FEMA to provide financial assistance for planning and
carrying out projects and activities designed to reduce the risk of
flood damage to NFIP-insured structures.
    FEMA routinely receives additional guidance from Congress, through
new legislation, and the President, through Executive Orders, that
requires changes to previously approved collection instruments in a few
months to provide timely assistance to survivors. FEMA is proposing
moving instruments from currently approved information collections into
this new generic information collection to provide the necessary
flexibility to update individual existing instruments and create new
instruments as new guidance from Congress and the President is
received, deliver timely assistance to survivors (both before and after
a disaster), and maintain compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act.

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R09-OAR-2016-0409; FRL-9955-67-Region 9]

Approval of California Air Plan Revisions, Great Basin Unified
Air Pollution Control District and the Town of Mammoth Lakes

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking direct
final action to approve revisions to the Great Basin Unified Air
Pollution Control District (GBUAPCD) and the Town of Mammoth Lakes
portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). These
revisions concern emissions of particulate matter (PM) from wood
burning devices and road dust in the Town of Mammoth Lakes. We are
approving local rules that regulate these emission sources under the
Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act).

DATES: This rule is effective on August 29, 2017 without further
notice, unless the EPA receives adverse comments by July 31, 2017. If
we receive such comments, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the
Federal Register to notify the public that this direct final rule will
not take effect.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R09-
OAR-2016-0409 at http://www.regulations.gov, or via email to Andrew
Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>For

I. The State's Submittal

A. What rules did the State submit?

    Table 1 lists the rules addressed by this action with the dates
that they were adopted by the local agencies and submitted by the
California Air Resources Board (CARB).

                                            Table 1--Submitted Rules
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Local agency                Rule No.              Rule title              Revised        Submitted
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GBUAPCD............................             431  Particulate Matter (except         05/05/14        11/06/14
                                                      paragraphs M and N).
Town of Mammoth Lakes..............            8.30  Particulate Emissions              06/04/14        11/06/14
                                                      Regulations (except
                                                      paragraphs 8.30.110 and
                                                      8.30.120).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On December 11, 2014, the EPA determined that the submittal for
GBUAPCD Rule 431 and Town of Mammoth Lakes Municipal Code Chapter 8.30
met the completeness criteria in 40 CFR part 51 Appendix V,

which must be met before formal EPA review.

B. Are there other versions of these rules?

    We approved earlier versions of Rule 431 and Municipal Code Chapter
8.30 into the SIP on October 31, 2007 (72 FR 61526) and June 24, 1996
(61 FR 32341), respectively. The GBUAPCD and Town of Mammoth Lakes
adopted revisions to the SIP-approved rules on May 5, 2014 and May 7,
2014 respectively, and CARB submitted them to us on November 6, 2014.

C. What is the purpose of the submitted rules?

    PM, including PM equal to or less than 10 microns in diameter
(PM10), contributes to effects that are harmful to human
health and the environment, including premature mortality, aggravation
of respiratory and cardiovascular disease, decreased lung function,
visibility impairment, and damage to vegetation and ecosystems. Section
110(a) of the CAA requires states to submit regulations that control PM
emissions. GBUAPCD Rule 431 (except paragraphs M and N) and Town of
Mammoth Lakes Municipal Code Chapter 8.30 (except paragraphs 8.30.110
and 8.30.120) were revised to be consistent with each other, and to
enable the GBUAPCD to be able to enforce air quality regulations
governing residential wood combustion and road dust in the Town of
Mammoth Lakes.\1\ The EPA's technical support document (TSD) has more
information about these rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Rule 431 may apply to communities other than the Town of
Mammoth Lakes within the Great Basin Unified Air Quality Control
District if a community is designated a High Wood Smoke Area
according to the procedures set forth in the Rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. The EPA's Evaluation and Action

A. How is the EPA evaluating the rules?

    SIP rules must be enforceable (see CAA section 110(a)(2)), must not
interfere with applicable requirements concerning attainment and
reasonable further progress or other CAA requirements (see CAA section
110(l)), and must not modify certain SIP control requirements in
nonattainment areas without ensuring equivalent or greater emissions
reductions (see CAA section 193).
    On October 5, 2015 (80 FR 60049), the EPA redesignated the Mammoth
Lakes Planning Area to attainment of the 24-hour PM10
National Ambient Air Quality Standard, pursuant to CAA section
107(d)(3)(D), and determined that the area met the requirements of CAA
section 107(d)(3)(E). Accordingly, the Mammoth Lakes Planning Area is
not subject to the nonattainment area requirement to implement either
Reasonably Available Control Measures (RACM) or Best Available Control
Measures (BACM) for PM10 and PM10 precursors in
CAA section 189(b) and (e). Therefore, we are not evaluating GBUAPCD
Rule 431 and Mammoth Lakes Municipal Code Chapter 8.30 for compliance
with current RACM or BACM requirements with respect to PM10.
Should a GBUAPCD nonattainment area take credit for Rule 431 in the
future as part of meeting its CAA Part D requirements, then we will
evaluate the rule for current RACM or BACM, as applicable, at that
time.
    Guidance and policy documents that we use to evaluate
enforceability, revision/relaxation and rule stringency requirements
for the applicable criteria pollutants include the following:

1. ``State Implementation Plans; General Preamble for the
Implementation of Title I of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990,''
(57 FR 13498, April 16, 1992 and 57 FR 18070, April 28, 1992).
2. ``Issues Relating to VOC Regulation Cutpoints, Deficiencies, and
Deviations,'' (``the Bluebook,'' U.S. EPA, May 25, 1988; revised
January 11, 1990).
3. ``Guidance Document for Correcting Common VOC & Other Rule
Deficiencies,'' (``the Little Bluebook'', EPA Region 9, August 21,
2001).
4. ``PM10 Guideline Document,'' (EPA 452/R-93-008, April
1993).

B. Do the rules meet the evaluation criteria?

    We believe these rules are consistent with the relevant policy and
guidance regarding enforceability and SIP relaxations. The District is
not including for SIP approval Rule 431 paragraphs M and N regarding
fees and penalties, and similar provisions in Municipal Code Chapter
8.30, paragraphs 8.30.110 and 8.30.120. These paragraphs could lead to
confusion with respect to similar federal requirements. The TSD has
more information on our evaluation.

C. The EPA's Recommendations To Further Improve the Rules

    The TSD describes additional rule revisions that we recommend for
the next time the local agencies modify the rules.

D. Public Comment and Final Action

    As authorized in section 110(k)(3) of the Act, the EPA is fully
approving the submitted rules because we believe they fulfill all
relevant requirements.\2\ We do not think anyone will object to this
approval, so we are finalizing it without proposing it in advance.
However, in the Proposed Rules section of this Federal Register, we are
simultaneously proposing approval of the same submitted rules. If we
receive adverse comments by July 31, 2017, we will publish a timely
withdrawal in the Federal Register to notify the public that the direct
final approval will not take effect and we will address the comments in
a subsequent final action based on the proposal. If we do not receive
timely adverse comments, the direct final approval will be effective
without further notice on August 29, 2017. This will incorporate these
rules into the federally enforceable SIP.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Upon the effective date of this final action, GBUAPCD Rule
431 (except paragraphs M and N) and Town of Mammoth Lakes Municipal
Code Chapter 8.30 (except paragraphs 8.30.110 and 8.30.120) would
supersede existing GBUAPD 431 and Town of Mammoth Lakes 8.30,
approved at 72 FR 61526 on October 31, 2007 and 61 FR 32341 on June
24, 1996, respectively in the applicable SIP.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Please note that if the EPA receives adverse comment on an
amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may
be severed from the remainder of the rule, the EPA may adopt as final
those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse
comment.

III. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, the EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the
GBUAPCD Rule 431 (except paragraphs M and N) and Town of Mammoth Lakes
Chapter 8.30 (except paragraphs 8.30.110 and 8.30.120), described in
the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth below. The EPA has made, and
will continue to make, these documents available through
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region IX Office (please contact the
person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of
this preamble for more information).

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, the EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely approves state law as meeting federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those

imposed by state law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     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 the 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 the EPA or an Indian tribe
has demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of
Indian country, the rule does not have tribal implications and will not
impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal
law as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9,
2000).
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. The EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by August 29, 2017. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of
judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for
judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness
of such rule or action. Parties with objections to this direct final
rule are encouraged to file a comment in response to the parallel
notice of proposed rulemaking for this action published in the Proposed
Rules section of today's Federal Register, rather than file an
immediate petition for judicial review of this direct final rule, so
that the EPA can withdraw this direct final rule and address the
comment in the proposed rulemaking. This action may not be challenged
later in proceedings to enforce its requirements (see section
307(b)(2)).

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC
20549-0213.

Extension: Rule 302.
    SEC File No. 270-453, OMB Control No. 3235-0510.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and
Exchange Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (``OMB'') a request for approval of extension of
the previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule
302 (17 CFR 242.302) of Regulation ATS (17 CFR 242.300 et seq.) under
the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.).
    Regulation ATS sets forth a regulatory regime for ``alternative
trading systems'' (``ATSs''), which are entities that carry out
exchange functions but which are not required to register as national
securities exchanges under the Act. In lieu of exchange registration,
an ATS can instead opt to register with the Commission as a broker-
dealer and, as a condition to not having to register as an exchange,
must instead comply with Regulation ATS. Rule 302 of Regulation ATS (17
CFR 242.302) describes the recordkeeping requirements for ATSs. Under
Rule 302, ATSs are required to make a record of subscribers to the ATS,
daily summaries of trading in the ATS, and time-sequenced records of
order information in the ATS.
    The information required to be collected under Rule 302 should
increase the abilities of the Commission, state securities regulatory
authorities, and the self-regulatory organizations (``SROs'') to ensure
that ATSs are in compliance with Regulation ATS as well as other
applicable rules and regulations. If the information is not collected
or collected less frequently, the regulators would be limited in their
ability to comply with their statutory obligations, provide for the
protection of investors, and promote the maintenance of fair and
orderly markets.
    Respondents consist of ATSs that choose to register as broker-
dealers and comply with the requirements of Regulation ATS. There are
currently 92 respondents. These respondents will spend approximately
11,960 hours per year (92 respondents at 130 burden hours/respondent)
to comply with the recordkeeping requirements of Rule 302. At an
average cost per burden hour of $63, the resultant total related cost
of compliance for these respondents is $753,480 per year (11,960 burden
hours multiplied by $63/hour).
    Compliance with Rule 302 is mandatory. The information required by
Rule 302 is available only for the examination of the Commission staff,
state securities authorities, and the SROs. Subject to the provisions
of the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. Sec.  522 (``FOIA''), and
the Commission's rules thereunder (17 CFR 200.80(b)(4)(iii)), the
Commission does not generally publish or make available information
contained in any reports,

summaries, analyses, letters, or memoranda arising out of, in
anticipation of, or in connection with an examination or inspection of
the books and records of any person or any other investigation.
    ATSs are required to preserve, for at least three years, any
records made in the process of complying with the requirements set out
in Rule 302.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    The public may view background documentation for this information
collection at the following Web site: www.reginfo.gov. Comments should
be directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office Building,
Washington, DC 20503, or by sending an email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and (ii) Thomas Bayer, Director/Chief Information
Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi Pavlik-Simon, 100
F Street, NE. Washington, DC 20549 or send an email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Comments must be submitted within 30 days of this
notice.

[Docket No. FAA-2008-0759; Directorate Identifier 2008-NE-02-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney (PW) JT9D-7 Series
Turbofan Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for PW models JT9D-7, -7A, -7AH, -7H, -7F, and -7J turbofan engines.
This proposed AD would require initial and repetitive borescope
inspections of the 2nd stage high-pressure turbine (HPT) rotor and
stator assembly. This proposed AD results from an uncontained failure
of a 2nd stage HPT rotor disk that caused the engine to separate from
the airplane. We are proposing this AD to prevent failure of the 2nd
stage HPT rotor disk, which could result in uncontained engine failure,
damage to the airplane, and the engine separating from the airplane.

DATES: We must receive any comments on this proposed AD by September 8,
2008.

ADDRESSES: Use one of the following addresses to comment on this
proposed AD:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to http://
www.regulations.gov and follow the instructions for sending your
comments electronically.
     Mail: Docket Management Facility, U.S. Department of
Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., West Building Ground
Floor, Room W12-140, Washington, DC 20590-0001.
     Hand Delivery: Deliver to Mail address above between 9
a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.
     Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    You can get the service information identified in this proposed AD

Discussion

    On October 20, 2004, a PW JT9D-7A engine experienced an uncontained
failure of the 2nd stage HPT rotor disk. The resulting imbalance caused
the engine to separate from the airplane. Root cause investigation
revealed that improper assembly caused the 2nd stage HPT vane
assemblies to lean back into the 2nd stage HPT rotor disk. The
investigation found indications of three improper assembly steps within
the engine that contributed to this vane lean back, disk fracture,
uncontained event.
     First, the investigation found an improper silver-based
antigallant.
     Second, the lock wire on the 2nd stage HPT vane retaining
bolts was not applied correctly.
     Finally, the 2nd stage HPT vane retaining bolts were
reused.
     Pratt & Whitney determined that the assembly procedures in
the engine manual (EM) might be misinterpreted and issued new
procedures to ensure the repair facilities follow proper assembly
procedures. Because PW was unable to determine the time frame over
which the repair facility used the old assembly procedures, they
developed a borescope inspection to identify vane lean back of the 2nd
stage HPT vanes of all JT9D-7 series engines. This condition, if not
corrected, could result in uncontained engine failure, damage to the
airplane, and the engine separating from the airplane.

Relevant Service Information

    We have reviewed and approved the technical contents of PW Alert
Service Bulletin (ASB) JT9D A6488, Revision 1, dated April 18, 2008,
that describes the procedures and inspection requirements for borescope
inspection of the 2nd stage HPT vanes.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of the Proposed AD

    We have evaluated all pertinent information and identified an
unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on other products
of this same type design. We are proposing this AD, which would require
an initial and repetitive borescope inspection of the

2nd stage HPT vane assembly. The proposed AD would require you to use
the service information described previously to perform these actions.

Interim Action

    These actions are interim actions and we may take further
rulemaking actions in the future.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD would affect 240 engines
installed on airplanes of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it would
take about 5 work-hours per engine to perform the proposed actions,
that each engine might require two inspections, and that the average
labor rate is $80 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate
the total cost of the proposed AD to U.S. operators to be $192,000.

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

    We have determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that the proposed AD:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and
    3. Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD. You may get a copy of this summary at the
address listed under ADDRESSES.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Safety.

The Proposed Amendment

    Under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the
Federal Aviation Administration proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as
follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

    1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

    2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new
airworthiness directive:

Pratt & Whitney: Docket No. FAA-2008-0759; Directorate Identifier
2008-NE-02-AD.

Comments Due Date

    (a) The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) must receive
comments on this airworthiness directive (AD) action by September 8,
2008.

Affected ADs

    (b) None.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to Pratt & Whitney (PW) JT9D-7, -7A, -7AH, -
7H, -7F, and -7J turbofan engines. These engines are installed on,
but not limited to, Boeing 747 series airplanes.

Unsafe Condition

    (d) This AD results from an uncontained failure of a 2nd stage
high-pressure turbine (HPT) rotor disk that caused the engine to
separate from the airplane. We are issuing this AD to prevent
failure of the 2nd stage HPT rotor disk, which could result in
uncontained engine failure, damage to the airplane, and the engine
separating from the airplane.

Compliance

    (e) You are responsible for having the actions required by this
AD performed within the compliance times specified unless the
actions have already been done.

Initial Borescope Inspection

    (f) Within 100 cycles-in-service (CIS) after the effective date
of this AD, or within 1,000 CIS after the last HPT module overhaul,
whichever occurs later, do the following:
    (1) Use the Accomplishment Instructions of PW Alert Service
Bulletin (ASB) JT9D A6488, Revision 1, dated April 18, 2008, to
borescope-inspect the 2nd stage HPT rotor and stator assembly either
on-wing or in the shop.
    (2) If you see any damage or contact between the 2nd stage HPT
vanes and the 2nd stage HPT rotor, remove the engine from service.

Repetitive Borescope Inspection

    (g) Thereafter, within 1,000 cycles-since-last inspection, do
the following:
    (1) Use the Accomplishment Instructions of PW ASB JT9D A6488
Revision 1, dated April 18, 2008, to borescope-inspect the 2nd stage
HPT rotor and stator assembly either on-wing or in the shop.
    (2) If you see any damage or contact between the 2nd stage HPT
vanes and the 2nd stage HPT rotor, remove the engine from service.

Optional Terminating Action

    (h) Installing the 2nd stage HPT vanes as specified in the JT9D-
7 Engine Manual Revision 122, dated February 15, 2008, terminates
the repetitive inspection requirement specified in paragraph (g) of
this AD.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-60093; File No. SR-CBOE-2009-036]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Chicago Board Options Exchange,
Incorporated; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed
Rule Change Relating to the Options Regulatory Fee

June 10, 2009.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934,\1\ notice is hereby given that on June 4, 2009, Chicago Board
Options Exchange, Incorporated filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in
Items I, II and III below, which Items have been prepared by CBOE. 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).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated (``CBOE'' or
``Exchange'') proposes to amend its Fees Schedule relating to the
Options Regulatory Fee. The text of the proposed rule change is
available on the Exchange's Web site (http://www.cboe.org/legal), at
the Exchange's Office of the Secretary and at the Commission.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, CBOE 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. CBOE 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, Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange charges an Options Regulatory Fee (``ORF'') of $.006
per contract to each member for all options transactions executed by
the member that are cleared by The Options Clearing Corporation
(``OCC'') in the customer range, excluding Options Intermarket Linkage
Plan (``Linkage'') orders. The ORF is imposed upon all such
transactions executed by a member, even if such transactions do not
take place on the Exchange. The ORF is collected indirectly from
members through their clearing firms by OCC on behalf of the Exchange.
There is a minimum one-cent charge per trade.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The ORF was established in October 2008 as a replacement of
Registered Representative (''RR'') fees. See Securities Exchange Act
Release No. 58817 (October 20, 2008), 73 FR 63744 (October 27, 2008)
(``Original Filing''). The ORF was to be effective January 1, 2009.
In December 2008 and January 2009, the Exchange filed proposed rule
changes waiving the ORF for January and February, to allow
additional time for the Exchange, OCC and firms to put in place
appropriate procedures to implement the fee. See Securities Exchange
Act Release No. 59182 (December 30, 2008), 74 FR 730 (January 7,
2009), and Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59355 (February 3,
2009), 74 FR 6677 (February 10, 2009). To avoid a regulatory revenue
shortfall for 2009 due to the waivers of the fee, the Exchange
increased the ORF for 2009 from $.0045 per contract to $.006 per
contract. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59427 (February
20, 2009), 74 FR 9013 (February 27, 2009).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange has reevaluated the current amount of the ORF in light
of better than expected trading volume so far in 2009. The Exchange
stated in the Original Filing that the ORF is set at a rate that the
Exchange anticipates will approximately replace the amount of revenue
that would be lost from the elimination of RR Fees.\3\ The Exchange has
determined that the ORF would generate revenue in excess of the amount
of annual revenue the Exchange used to receive from RR fees if the ORF
remained at $.006 per contract for all of 2009. Accordingly, the
Exchange proposes to reduce the ORF from $.006 per contract to $.004
per contract. The fee change would become operative on August 1, 2009,
in order to give members time to implement the revised fee.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Original Filing at 63745.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange will continue to monitor the amount of revenue raised
by the ORF to ensure that it is meeting its revenue benchmarks and may
make other adjustments to the fee in the future as necessary. The
Exchange anticipates providing notice of any ORF changes as far in
advance of the effective date of the new rate as possible.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 6(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act''),\4\ in
general, and furthers

the objectives of Section 6(b)(4) \5\ of the Act in particular, in that
it is designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable
dues, fees, and other charges among its members and other persons using
its facilities. The Exchange believes the revised ORF is reasonable
because it is expected to approximately equal the annual revenue the
Exchange used to receive from RR Fees.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    CBOE does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of 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 foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \6\ and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-4 \7\
thereunder. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed
rule change, the Commission may summarily abrogate such rule change if
it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or

Regulatory Flexibility Agenda

AGENCY: Securities and Exchange Commission.

ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda.

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

SUMMARY: The Securities and Exchange Commission is publishing an agenda
of its rulemaking actions pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(RFA) (Pub. L. No. 96-354, 94 Stat. 1164) (Sep. 19, 1980). Information
in the agenda was accurate on November 5, 2013, the date on which the
Commission's staff completed compilation of the data. To the extent
possible, rulemaking actions by the Commission since that date have
been reflected in the agenda. The Commission invites questions and
public comment on the agenda and on the individual agenda entries.
    The Commission is now printing in the Federal Register, along with
our preamble, only those agenda entries for which we have indicated
that preparation of an RFA analysis is required.
    The Commission's complete RFA agenda will be available online at
www.reginfo.gov.

DATES: Comments should be received on or before February 6, 2014.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be submitted by any of the following methods:

Paper Comments

     Send paper comments in triplicate to Elizabeth M. Murphy,
Secretary, Securities and Exchange Commission, 100 F Street NE.,

personal identifying information from submissions. You should submit
only information that you wish to make available publicly.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Anne Sullivan, Office of the General
Counsel,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The RFA requires each Federal agency, twice
each year, to publish in the Federal Register an agenda identifying
rules that the agency expects to consider in the next 12 months that
are likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities (5 U.S.C. 602(a)). The RFA specifically
provides that publication of the agenda does not preclude an agency
from considering or acting on any matter not included in the agenda and
that an agency is not required to consider or act on any matter that is
included in the agenda (5 U.S.C. 602(d)). The Commission may consider
or act on any matter earlier or later than the estimated date provided
on the agenda. While the agenda reflects the current intent to complete
a number of rulemakings in the next year, the precise dates for each
rulemaking at this point are uncertain. Actions that do not have an
estimated date are placed in the long-term category; the Commission may
nevertheless act on items in that category within the next 12 months.
The agenda includes new entries, entries carried over from prior
publications, and rulemaking actions that have been completed (or
withdrawn) since publication of the last agenda.
    The following abbreviations for the acts administered by the
Commission are used in the agenda:

``Securities Act''-- Securities Act of 1933
``Exchange Act''-- Securities Exchange Act of 1934
``Investment Company Act''-- Investment Company Act of 1940
``Investment Advisers Act''-- Investment Advisers Act of 1940
``Dodd Frank Act''--Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act

    The Commission invites public comment on the agenda and on the
individual agenda entries.
    By the Commission.

    Dated: November 6, 2013.
Elizabeth M. Murphy,
Secretary.
