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

    The Exchange proposes to amend its Fees Schedule relating to
various fee waivers and the Flex Trader Incentive Program that are set
to expire June 30, 2018.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
website (http://www.cboe.com/AboutCBOE/CBOELegalRegulatoryHome.aspx),
at the Exchange's Office of the Secretary, and at the Commission's
Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such
statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend its Fees Schedule relating to
various fee waivers and the Flex Trader Incentive Program that are set
to expire June 30, 2018.
VIX and Select Sector License Index Surcharge
    The Exchange first proposes to extend the current waiver of the VIX
and Select Sector Index License Surcharge of $0.10 per contract for
Clearing Trading Permit Holder Proprietary (``Firm'') (origin codes
``F'' or ``L'') VIX and Select Sector orders that have a premium of
$0.10 or lower and have series with an expiration of seven (7) calendar
days or less. The Exchange adopted the current waiver to reduce
transaction costs on expiring, low-priced VIX and Select Sector
options, which the Exchange believed would encourage Firms to seek to
close and/or roll over such positions close to expiration at low
premium levels, including facilitating customers to do so, in order to
free up capital and encourage additional trading. The Exchange had
proposed to waive the surcharge through June 30, 2018, at which time
the Exchange had stated that it would evaluate whether the waiver has
in fact prompted Firms to close and roll over these positions close to
expiration as intended. The Exchange believes the waiver encourages
Firms to do so and as such, proposes to extend the waiver of the
surcharge through December 31, 2018, at which time the Exchange will
again reevaluate whether the waiver has continued to prompt Firms to
close and roll over positions close to expiration at low premium
levels. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes to delete the reference to
the current waiver period of June 30, 2018 from the Fees Schedule and
replace it with December 31, 2018.
Extended Trading Hour Fees
    In order to promote and encourage trading during the Extended
Trading Hours (``ETH'') session, the Exchange currently waives ETH
Trading Permit and Bandwidth Packet fees for one (1) of each initial
Trading Permits and one (1) of each initial Bandwidth Packet, per
affiliated TPH. The Exchange notes that waiver is set to expire June
30, 2018. The Exchange also waives fees through June 30, 2018 for a CMI
and FIX login

ID if the CMI and/or FIX login ID is related to a waived ETH Trading
Permit and/or waived Bandwidth packet. In order to continue to promote
trading during ETH, the Exchange wishes to extend these waivers through
December 31, 2018.
RLG, RLV, RUI, AWDE, FTEM, FXTM and UKXM Transaction Fees
    In order to promote and encourage trading of seven new FTSE Russell
Index products (i.e., Russell 1000 Growth Index (``RLG''), Russell 1000
Value Index (``RLV''), Russell 1000 Index (``RUI''), FTSE Developed
Europe Index (``AWDE''), FTSE Emerging Markets Index (``FTEM''), China
50 Index ``(FXTM'') and FTSE 100 Index (``UKXM'')), the Exchange waives
all transaction fees (including the Floor Brokerage Fee, Index License
Surcharge and CFLEX Surcharge Fee) for each of these products. This
waiver however, is set to expire June 30, 2018. In order to continue to
promote trading of these options classes, the Exchange proposes to
extend the fee waiver through December 31, 2018.
FLEX Asian and Cliquet Flex Trader Incentive Program
    By way of background, a FLEX Trader is entitled to a pro-rata share
of the monthly compensation pool based on the customer order fees
collected from customer orders traded against that FLEX Trader's orders
with origin codes other than ``C'' in FLEX Broad-Based Index Options
with Asian or Cliquet style settlement (``Exotics'') each month (``Flex
Trader Incentive Program''). The Fees Schedule provides that the Flex
Trader Incentive Program is set to expire either by June 30, 2018 or
until total average daily volume in Exotics exceeds 15,000 contracts
for three consecutive months, whichever comes first. The Exchange notes
that total average daily volume in Exotics has not yet exceeded 15,000
contracts for three consecutive months. The Exchange also has
determined that it no longer wishes to maintain this program and as
such does not intend to extend the program past June 30, 2018. As such,
the Exchange proposes to remove the program (currently set forth in
Footnote 42) from the Fees Schedule.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'') and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular,
the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\5\ Specifically, the
Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the
Section 6(b)(5) \6\ requirements that the rules of an exchange be
designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to
promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation
and coordination with persons engaged in regulating, clearing,
settling, processing information with respect to, and facilitating
transactions in securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and,
in general, to protect investors and the public interest. Additionally,
the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,\7\ which requires that Exchange rules
provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and
other charges among its Trading Permit Holders and other persons using
its facilities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes it's appropriate to continue to waive the VIX
and Select Sector Index License Surcharge for Clearing Trading Permit
Holder Proprietary VIX and Select Sector orders that have a premium of
$0.10 or lower and have series with an expiration of 7 calendar days or
less because the Exchange wants to continue encouraging Firms to roll
and close over positions close to expiration at low premium levels.
Particularly, the Exchange believes it's reasonable to waive the entire
$0.10 per contract surcharge because without the waiver of the
surcharge, firms are less likely to engage in these transactions, as
opposed to other VIX and Select Sector transactions, due to the
associated transaction costs. The Exchange believes it's equitable and
not unfairly discriminatory to limit the waiver to Clearing Trading
Permit Holder Proprietary orders because they contribute capital to
facilitate the execution of VIX and Select Sector customer orders with
a premium of $0.10 or lower and series with an expiration of 7 calendar
days or less. Finally, the Exchange believes it's reasonable, equitable
and not unfairly discriminatory to provide that the surcharge will be
waived through December 2018, as it gives the Exchange additional time
to evaluate if the waiver is continuing to have the desired effect of
encouraging these transactions.
    The Exchange believes extending the waiver of ETH Trading Permit
and Bandwidth Packet fees for one of each type of Trading Permit and
Bandwidth Packet, per affiliated TPH through December 31, 2018 is
reasonable, equitable and not unfairly discriminatory, because those
respective fees are being waived in their entirety, which promotes and
encourages trading during the ETH session and applies to all ETH TPHs.
The Exchange believes it's also reasonable, equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory to waive fees for Login IDs related to waived Trading
Permits and/or Bandwidth Packets in order to promote and encourage
ongoing participation in ETH and also applies to all ETH TPHs.
    The Exchange believes it is reasonable, equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory to extend the waiver of all transaction fees for RLG,
RLV, RUI, AWDE, FTEM, FXTM and UKXM transactions, including the Floor
Brokerage fee, the License Index Surcharge and CFLEX Surcharge Fee,
because the respective fees are being waived in their entirety, which
promotes and encourages trading of these products which are still
relatively new and applies to all TPHs.
    The Exchange believes eliminating the FLEX Asian and Cliquet Flex
Trading Incentive Program is reasonable, equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory because the program is not providing the desired result
of incentivizing FLEX Traders to trade FLEX Asian and Cliquet options.
The Exchange believes the proposed change is not unfairly
discriminatory because it will apply equally to all Flex Traders.

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 intramarket or intermarket competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The
proposed changes are intended to either extend existing fee waivers or
eliminate from the Fees Schedule a program that is expiring on June 30,
2018 and apply to all TPHs uniformly. The proposed changes only affect
trading on Cboe Options. The Exchange believes the proposed change
therefore does not raise any competitive issues.

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

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

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

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i)
Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii)
become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \8\ and
subparagraph (f)(6) Rule 19b-4 thereunder.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii)
requires the Exchange to give the Commission written notice of the
Exchange's 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \10\ normally
does not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing. However
Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) \11\ permits the Commission to designate a
shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest. The Exchange has requested that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative delay to permit the applicable
fee waivers to be extended on a timely basis and without interruption
and to update its rule text to reflect the sunsetting of the FLEX
Trader Incentive Program as scheduled. The Commission believes that
waiver of the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the protection
of investors and the public interest because the proposal to extend to
December 31, 2018 temporary incentives designed to encourage trading in
the above-discussed products and trading sessions, and to remove
obsolete text concerning the FLEX Trader Incentive Program, does not
raise any new or novel issues. Therefore, the Commission hereby waives
the 30-day operative delay and designates the proposed rule change
operative upon filing.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \12\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,
the Commission also 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 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 change should be approved or
disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-OPP-2021-0743; FRL-10537-01-OMS]

Information Collection Request Submitted to OMB for Review and
Approval; Comment Request; Reporting in the FIFRA Grant Database
(Renewal)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has submitted the
following information collection request (ICR), Reporting in the FIFRA
Grant Database (EPA ICR Number 2511.03, OMB Control Number 2070-0198)
to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). This is a proposed
extension of the ICR, which is currently approved through December 31,
2022. Public comments were previously requested via the Federal
Register on March 28, 2022 during a 60-day comment period. This notice
allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. The ICR, which is
summarized in this document, describes the collection activities and
estimated burden and cost to the public. An agency may not conduct or
sponsor and a person is not required to respond to a collection of
information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

DATES: Additional comments may be submitted on or before January 26,
2023.

ADDRESSES: For submissions to EPA: Submit your comments, referencing
Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-2021-0743, using https://www.regulations.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supporting documents that explain in detail
the information EPA will be collecting are available in the docket for
this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at https://www.regulations.gov or in person at the EPA Docket Center, WJC West,
Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW, Washington, DC. The telephone
number for the Docket Center is<PHONE_NUMBER>. Additional information
about visiting EPA's dockets is available at https://www.epa.gov/dockets.
    Abstract: This ICR describes the burden activities for the
electronic collection of information for the pre-award burden activity
for creating a work plan and the post-award and after-the-grant award
activities related to reporting accomplishments to implement EPA's
Federal Insecticide Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) State and
Tribal Assistance Grant (STAG) program (7 U.S.C. 136u).
    In 2019, a workgroup comprised of EPA, state, and tribal
representatives converted the FIFRA Work Plan and Report Template
(FIFRA Template), which was in Excel, into a pilot program of a web-
based system housed in the Central Data Exchange (CDX) platform, called
the FIFRA Grant Database (FGD). When the permanent use of the pilot
program is approved by OMB, then the use of the FGD will become
mandatory, replacing the excel web-based system entirely.
    This ICR augments the ICR entitled ``EPA's General Regulation for
Assistance Programs ICR'' (OMB Control No. 2030-0020; EPA ICR No.
0938.18) which accounts for the current PRA burden for the minimum
management requirements for all recipients of EPA grants or cooperative
agreements (assistance agreements).
    This ICR provides the burden assessment for the FIFRA program
specific activities associated with using a standardized online
template for only the STAG program reporting.
    Form Numbers: EPA Form 5700-33H.
    Respondents/affected entities: State, local governments, Indian
tribes, and U.S. territories that are grantees of Federal funds
participating in the FIFRA STAG program.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory, as per 40 CFR parts
30 and 31.

    Estimated number of respondents: 81 (total).
    Frequency of response: Biannually (mid-year and end of year
reporting).
    Total estimated responses: 162 (per year).
    Total estimated burden: 26,195 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated costs: $2,102,179 (per year), which includes an
estimated cost of $0 for capital investment or maintenance and
operational costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is no change in total estimated
burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB.

II. Brief Summary of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)

    EPA regulates pesticides in particular plant-incorporated
protectants (PIPs). PIPs are pesticidal substances (such as Bacillus
thuringiensis protein) produced in plants and the genetic material
necessary for their production in plants (such as cry genes). EPA
grants experimental use permits for field testing and registrations
that permit the sale and use of pesticides, including PIPs, in commerce
under FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq. EPA also issues tolerances or
tolerance exemptions that permit pesticide chemical residues in food
under section 408 of FFDCA.
    The MOU will support and encourage cooperation and communication
between USDA, FDA, and EPA in the regulatory oversight over genetically
engineered plants and the foods derived from such plants. Under the
MOU, USDA/APHIS/BRS, FDA, and EPA agree to share with each other
information about genetically engineered plants and the foods derived
from such plants, including non-public information exempt from public
disclosure usually referred to as ``confidential business information''
and/or ``trade secrets'' (also referred to as ``non-public
information'' in the MOU).
    Subject to Units A, B, and C defined in the MOU, an agency shall
not further disclose non-public information received under the MOU
except with the written permission of the agency from which the non-
public information originated.
    Under the MOU, USDA/APHIS/BRS would share non-public information
including CBI that it receives from private entities pursuant to its
biotechnology regulations under 7 CFR part 340 only as described below.
    Confidential information provided by USDA/APHIS/BRS may only be
shared with FDA and EPA personnel who have been granted access to non-
public information by the Director of USDA/APHIS/BRS' Regulatory
Operations Division or his/her designate via the APHIS Access
Authorization Agreement for Trade Secrets and Confidential Business
Information form.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments;
Clearance of a New Information Collection: FAA Aircraft Noise Complaint
and Inquiry System (FAA Noise Portal)

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA
invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approval for a voluntary information
collection. The collection is part of FAA's goal to more effectively
and efficiently address noise complaints or inquiries it receives. The
collection includes information such as name, email address, street or
cross street, city, state, zip code and a description of the aircraft
noise complaint or inquiry. The level of information to be collected is
necessary to allow FAA to respond to the noise complaint or inquiry.
Currently, the FAA receives noise complaints or inquiries in many
formats sent to many different people in the agency. This collection
will provide clear points of entry at the FAA regional and headquarters
level for the public to submit noise complaints or inquiries using a
web based system with consistent collection fields that will populate a
national database.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by January 2, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to the FAA at the following address: Barbara
Hall, Federal Aviation Administration, ASP-110, 10101 Hillwood Parkway,
Fort Worth, TX 76177.
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including (a) whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d)
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of
the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information
collection.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Barbara Hall by email at:
[email protected]; phone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    OMB Control Number: 2120-XXXX.
    Title: FAA Aircraft Noise Complaint and Inquiry System (FAA Noise
Portal).
    Form Numbers: There are no forms.
    Type of Review: This is clearance of new information collection.
    Background: The purpose of the FAA Noise Portal is to allow the FAA
to more efficiently and effectively respond to and address noise
complaints or inquiries in a clear, consistent and repeatable manner
that is responsive to the public and applies the best use of FAA
resources. Currently, there is no clear FAA process or point of entry
for the public to submit noise complaints/inquiries. As a result, the
public noise complaints are forwarded within the FAA until the
appropriate person or organization responds to it. This creates a delay
in FAA responses to the public.
    A public link to the FAA Noise Portal collection will be posted on
each of the nine FAA regional Web sites and the FAA Headquarters Noise
Ombudsman Web site for members of the public who want to submit an
aircraft related noise complaint or inquiry to the FAA. The FAA Noise
Portal includes required and optional fields for the public to
complete. Once completed, the information is automatically sent to the
FAA Regional Administrators Office or Noise Ombudsman who in turn
assigns it to the appropriate FAA office to respond to the complaint
within a specified time frame. All incoming complaints/inquiries are
automatically entered into an FAA database that can be tracked to
ensure timely responses and queried for informational purposes.
    The Web sites will also identify and provide links to other
entities responsible for addressing aircraft noise related issues
(e.g., airports, military, helicopters) and will contain links to
pertinent aircraft noise related policy, environmental or community
involvement documents. In addition, the Web sites will contain a
mailing address and phone number for those members of the public who
wish to mail a postal letter or use a voice prompt and recording system
option to complete the required fields included in the FAA Noise
Portal.
    Respondents: Generally, any member of the public in the United
States with a valid email address who believes the FAA is the
appropriate entity to answer their aircraft noise complaint or inquiry.
    Frequency: Members of the public are not limited to the number of
times they can submit a complaint/inquiry to the FAA.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: Fifteen minutes to enter the
complaint or inquiry into the FAA Noise Portal fields.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 11,250 hours.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on October 26, 2017.

Paperwork Reduction Act Compliance Lead, Performance, Policy, and
