    Applicants: AEP Texas Central Company.
    Description: Application Under Section 204 of the Federal Power Act
for Authorization to Issue Securities of AEP Texas Central Company.

    Comment Date: 5 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, January 18, 2011.

    Any person desiring to intervene or to protest in any of the above
proceedings must file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and
385.214) on or before 5 p.m. Eastern time on the specified comment
date. It is not necessary to separately intervene again in a subdocket
related to a compliance filing if you have previously intervened in the
same docket. Protests will be considered by the Commission in
determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve to
make protestants parties to the proceeding. Anyone filing a motion to
intervene or protest must serve a copy of that document on the
Applicant. In reference to filings initiating a new proceeding,
interventions or protests submitted on or before the comment deadline
need not be served on persons other than the Applicant.
    As it relates to any qualifying facility filings, the notices of
self-certification [or self-recertification] listed above, do not
institute a proceeding regarding qualifying facility status. A notice
of self-certification [or self-recertification] simply provides
notification that the entity making the filing has determined the
facility named in the notice meets the applicable criteria to be a
qualifying facility. Intervention and/or protest do not lie in dockets
that are qualifying facility self-certifications or self-
recertifications. Any person seeking to challenge such qualifying
facility status may do so by filing a motion pursuant to 18 CFR
292.207(d)(iii). Intervention and protests may be filed in response to
notices of qualifying facility dockets other than self-certifications
and self-recertifications.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and
interventions in lieu of paper, using the FERC Online links at http://www.ferc.gov. To facilitate electronic service, persons with Internet
access who will eFile a document and/or be listed as a contact for an
intervenor must create and validate an eRegistration account using the
eRegistration link. Select the eFiling link to log on and submit the
intervention or protests.
    Persons unable to file electronically should submit an original and
14 copies of the intervention or protest to the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First St., NE., Washington, DC 20426.
    The filings in the above proceedings are accessible in the
Commission's eLibrary system by clicking on the appropriate link in the
above list. They are also available for review in the Commission's
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an eSubscription link
on the Web site that

enables subscribers to receive e-mail notification when a document is
added to a subscribed docket(s). For assistance with any FERC Online
service, please e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or call (866) 208-
3676 (toll free). For TTY, call<PHONE_NUMBER>.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R03-OAR-2010-0882; FRL-9256-3]

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
Virginia; Adoption of the Revised Lead Standards and Related Reference
Conditions, and Update of Appendices

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Virginia for the purpose of
adding the primary and secondary lead standards of 0.15 micrograms per
cubic meter ([mu]g/m\3\), related reference conditions, and update the
list of appendices under ``Documents Incorporated by Reference.'' In
the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the
Commonwealth's SIP submittal as a direct final rule without prior
proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal
and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the
approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments
are received in response to this action, no further activity is
contemplated. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule
will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in
a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not
institute a second comment period. Any parties interested in commenting
on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by February 25, 2011.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID Number EPA-
R03-OAR-2010-0882 by one of the following methods:
    A. http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the on-line instructions for
submitting comments.
    B. E-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    C. Mail: EPA-R03-OAR-2010-0882, Marilyn Powers, Acting Associate
Director, Office of Air Program Planning, Mailcode 3AP30, U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, Region III, 1650 Arch Street,
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103.
    D. Hand Delivery: At the previously-listed EPA Region III address.
Such deliveries are only accepted during the Docket's normal hours of
operation, and special arrangements should be made for deliveries of
boxed information.
    Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. EPA-R03-OAR-
2010-0882. EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included
in the public docket without change, and may be made available online
at http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information
provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose
disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you
consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. The http://www.regulations.gov Web site
is an ``anonymous access'' system, which means EPA will not know your
identity or contact information unless you provide it in the body of
your comment. If you send an e-mail comment directly to EPA without
going through http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail address will be
automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is
placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If you
submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any
disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your comment due to
technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA
may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid
the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of
any defects or viruses.
    Docket: All documents in the electronic docket are listed in the
http://www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some
information is not publicly available, i.e., CBI or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such
as copyrighted material, is not placed on the Internet and will be
publicly available only in hard copy form. Publicly available docket
materials are available either electronically in http://www.regulations.gov or in hard copy during normal business hours at the
Air Protection Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region
III, 1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103. Copies of the
State submittal are available at the Virginia Department of
Environmental Quality, 629 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Irene Shandruk,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or by
e-mail at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For further information, please see the
information provided in the direct final action, with the same title,
``Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
Virginia; Adoption of the Revised Lead Standards and Related Reference
Conditions, and Update of Appendices,'' that is located in the ``Rules
and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register publication. Please
note that if 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, EPA may adopt as final those provisions of the
rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.

    Dated: January 5, 2011.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region III.

[Docket No. OSHA-2007-0039]

Intertek Testing Services NA, Inc.; Expansion of Recognition

AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Labor.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration's final decision expanding the recognition of Intertek
Testing Services NA, Inc., (ITSNA) as a Nationally Recognized Testing
Laboratory under 29 CFR 1910.7.

DATES: The expansion of recognition becomes effective on August 29,
2008.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: MaryAnn Garrahan, Director, Office of
Technical Programs and Coordination Activities, NRTL Program,
Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of
Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., Room N-3655, Washington, DC 20210,
or phone<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Notice of Final Decision

    The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) hereby
gives notice that it is expanding recognition of Intertek Testing
Services NA, Inc., (ITSNA) as a Nationally Recognized Testing
Laboratory (NRTL). ITSNA's expansion covers the use of additional test
standards. OSHA's current scope of recognition for ITSNA may be found
in the following informational Web page: http://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/
nrtl/its.html.
    OSHA recognition of an NRTL signifies that the organization has met
the legal requirements in Section 1910.7 of Title 29, Code of Federal
Regulations (29 CFR 1910.7). Recognition is an acknowledgment that the
organization can perform independent safety testing and certification
of the specific products covered within its scope of recognition and is
not a delegation or grant of government authority. As a result of
recognition, employers may use products approved by the NRTL to meet
OSHA standards that require testing and certification.
    The Agency processes applications by an NRTL for initial
recognition or for expansion or renewal of this recognition following
requirements in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. This appendix requires
that the Agency publish two notices in the Federal Register in
processing an application. In the first notice, OSHA announces the
application and provides its preliminary finding and, in the second
notice, the Agency provides its final decision on the application.
These notices set forth the NRTL's scope of recognition or
modifications of that scope. OSHA maintains an informational Web page
for each NRTL that details its scope of recognition. These pages can be
accessed from the Web site at http://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/
index.html.
    In an earlier action involving ITSNA, OSHA issued a Federal
Register notice modifying its recognition, along with the recognition
of other NRTLs, by replacing or deleting test standards that standards-
developing organizations previously revised or withdrew (70 FR 11273,
March 8, 2005). In a subsequent Federal Register notice, OSHA granted
ITSNA's most recent application, which was for an expansion of
recognition (68 FR 62479, November 4, 2003).
    ITSNA submitted an application, dated August 25, 2005, (see Exhibit
48-1, as cited in the preliminary notice) to expand its recognition to
include 56 additional test standards. One standard, however, is already
included in ITSNA's scope and another has been withdrawn by the
standards-developing organization. The NRTL Program staff has
determined that the remaining 54 standards are ``appropriate test
standards'' within the meaning of 29 CFR 1910.7(c). In connection with
the expansion, OSHA staff performed an onsite visit of the NRTL's
Cortland site

(its headquarters facility) in May 2006. Based on this visit, the staff
recommends expansion of the ITSNA recognition to include the 54 test
standards (see Exhibit 48-4). Therefore, OSHA is approving these 54
test standards for the expansion.
    Based on this review, OSHA published a preliminary notice
announcing the expansion application in the Federal Register on January
28, 2008 (73 FR 4919). Comments were requested by February 12, 2008,
but no comments were received in response to this notice. OSHA is now
proceeding with this final notice to grant ITSNA's expansion
application.
    You may obtain or review copies of all public documents pertaining
to the ITSNA application by contacting the Docket Office, Occupational
Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200
Constitution Avenue, NW., Room N-2625, Washington, DC, 20210. Docket
No. OSHA-2007-0039 (formerly NRTL1-89) contains all materials in the
record concerning ITSNA's recognition.
    The current addresses of the ITSNA facilities (sites) already
recognized by OSHA are:

Final Decision and Order

    NRTL Program staff examined ITSNA's application, the assessor's
recommendation, and other pertinent information. Based upon this
examination and the assessor's recommendation, OSHA finds that ITSNA
has met the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its
recognition, subject to the limitation and conditions listed below.
Pursuant to the authority in 29 CFR 1910.7, OSHA hereby expands the
recognition of ITSNA, subject to this limitation and these conditions.

Limitation

    OSHA limits the expansion of ITSNA's recognition to testing and
certification of products for demonstration of conformance to the

    The designations and titles of the above test standards were
current at the time of the preparation of this notice.
    OSHA's recognition of ITSNA, or any NRTL, for a particular test
standard is limited to equipment or materials (i.e., products) for
which OSHA standards require third-party testing and certification
before use in the workplace. Consequently, if a test standard also
covers any product(s) for which OSHA does not require such testing and
certification, an NRTL's scope of recognition does not include that
product(s).
    Test standards listed above may be approved as an American National
Standard by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). However,
for convenience, we use the designation of the standards-developing
organization for the standard as opposed to the ANSI designation. Under
our procedures, any NRTL recognized for an ANSI-approved test standard
may use either the latest proprietary version of the test standard or
the latest ANSI version of that standard. You may contact ANSI to find
out whether a test standard is currently ANSI-approved.

Conditions

    ITSNA must also abide by the following conditions of the
recognition, in addition to those conditions already required by 29 CFR
1910.7:
    OSHA must be allowed access to ITSNA's facilities and records to
ascertain continuing compliance with the terms of its recognition and
to perform investigations as OSHA deems necessary;
    If ITSNA has reason to doubt the efficacy of any test standard it
is using under this program, it must promptly inform the test standard-
developing organization of this concern and provide that organization
with appropriate relevant information upon which its concern is based;
    ITSNA must not engage in, or permit others to engage in, any
misrepresentation of the scope or conditions of its recognition. As
part of this condition, ITSNA agrees that it will allow no
representation that it is either a recognized or an accredited
Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) without clearly
indicating the specific equipment or material to which this recognition
applies, and also clearly indicating that its recognition is limited to
certain products;
    ITSNA must inform OSHA as soon as possible, in writing, of any
change of ownership, facilities, or key personnel, and of any major
changes in its operations as an NRTL, including details of these
changes;
    ITSNA will meet all the terms of its recognition and will always
comply with all OSHA policies pertaining to this recognition; and
    ITSNA will continue to meet the requirements for recognition in all
areas where it has been recognized.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 20th day of August, 2008.

[Docket No. USCG-2018-0987]
RIN 1625-AA09

Drawbridge Operation Regulations; Back Bay of Biloxi, Biloxi, MS

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to change the operating schedule that
governs the I-110 bascule bridge across the Back Bay of Biloxi, mile
3.0, Biloxi, Harrison County, Mississippi. This proposed action would
require a 12 hour notification to open the bridge to vessels on
Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Year's Day. The bridge has not
opened for vessels on these holidays over a four year period. This
proposed action is intended to allow the bridge owner to effectively
manage bridge tender resources during these federal holidays.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast
Guard on or before July 13, 2020.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2018-0981 using Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov.
    See the ``Public Participation and Request for Comments'' portion
of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further instructions on
submitting comments.

II. Background, Purpose and Legal Basis

    MDOT has requested to change the operating requirements for the I-
110 bascule bridge across the Back Bay of Biloxi, mile 3.0, Biloxi,
Harrison County, Mississippi. This bridge currently opens according to
33 CFR part 117.675(a) and opens on signal if at least six hour notice
is given. MDOT has requested that on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day
and New Year's Day the bridge will open on signal if at least 12 hour
notice is given.
    At this bridge location the waterway is used by small commercial,
recreational and fishing vessels. From 2014 through 2017 this bridge
did not open for vessels on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New
Year's Day. The bridge has a vertical clearance of 60' above mean high
water in the closed to vessel position. Requiring a 12 hour notice to
open provides a reasonable ability to use the waterway.
    The Coast Guard is issuing this NPRM under authority 33 U.S.C. 499.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The Coast Guard's decision to promulgate a drawbridge regulation
depends primarily upon the effect of the proposed rule on navigation to
assure that the rule provides for the reasonable needs of navigation
after consideration of the impact to the public. The Coast Guard must
ensure that bridges across navigable waters do not unreasonably
obstruct waterway traffic and at the same time provide for the
reasonable needs of land traffic. Drawbridge operations must balance
the needs of vessel, vehicle, rail, pedestrian, and recreational
traffic in the overall public interest.
    Since this bridge has not opened for vessel traffic over a four
year period on these federal holidays the Coast Guard proposes that it
is reasonable for vessels to provide a 12 hour notice to open the
drawbridge. We have not identified any impacts on marine navigation
with this proposed rule. Additionally the bridge is required to open
for emergencies according to 33 CFR 117.31.

IV. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes
and Executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our
analyses based on these statutes and Executive orders and we discuss
First Amendment rights of protestors.

A. Regulatory Planning and Review

    Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess the
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits. Executive Order 13771 directs agencies to control
regulatory costs through a budgeting process. This NPRM has not been
designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order
12866. Accordingly, the NPRM has not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) and pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt
from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the ability that
vessels can still open the draw and transit given advance notice. Those
vessels with a vertical clearance requirement of less than 60 feet
above mean high water may transit the bridge at any time. Additionally
according to 33 CFR 117.31 (b) the drawtender shall take all reasonable
measures to have the draw opened, regardless of the operating schedule
of the draw, for passage of certain vessels during emergency
situations. We believe this proposed change to the drawbridge operation
regulations at 33 CFR 117.675(a) will meet the reasonable needs of
navigation.

B. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, as
amended, requires Federal agencies to consider the potential impact of
regulations on small entities during rulemaking. The term ``small
entities'' comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations
that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their
fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than
50,000. The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this
proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
    The bridge provides a 60 foot vertical clearance at mean high water
that should accommodate most present

vessel traffic and the bridge will continue to open on signal for any
vessel provided at least 12 hour notice is given. While some owners or
operators of vessels intending to transit the bridge may be small
entities, for the reasons stated in section IV.A above, this proposed
rule would not have a significant economic impact on any vessel owner
or operator.
    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small
entities in understanding this proposed rule. If the proposed rule
would affect your small business, organization, or governmental
jurisdiction and you have questions concerning its provisions or
options for compliance, please contact the person listed in the FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. The Coast Guard will not retaliate
against small entities that question or complain about this proposed
rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule would call for no new collection of information
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520.).

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Government

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has 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. We have analyzed this proposed rule under that Order and
have determined that it is consistent with the fundamental federalism
principles and preemption requirements described in Executive Order
13132.
    Also, this proposed rule does not have tribal implications under
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it would not have a substantial direct effect on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes. If
you believe this proposed rule has implications for federalism or
Indian tribes, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section above.

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this proposed rule will not
result in such expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this proposed
rule elsewhere in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and U.S. Coast Guard Environmental Planning
Policy COMDTINST 5090.1 (series) which guide the Coast Guard in
complying with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42
U.S.C. 4321-4370f). We have made a preliminary determination that this
action is one of a category of actions that do not individually or
cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. This
proposed rule promulgates the operating regulations or procedures for
drawbridges. Normally this action is categorically excluded from
further review, under paragraph L49, of Chapter 3, Table 3-1 of the
U.S. Coast Guard Environmental Planning Implementation Procedures.
    Neither a Record of Environmental Consideration nor a Memorandum
for the Record are required for this rule.

G. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so that
your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or
security of people, places or vessels.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-78784; File No. SR-Phlx-2016-91]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NASDAQ PHLX LLC; Notice of Filing
and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change Relating to the
Exchange's Pricing Schedule Under Section VIII With Respect To
Execution and Routing of Orders in Securities Priced at $1 or More Per
Share

September 8, 2016.
    Pursuant to section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on August 31, 2016, NASDAQ PHLX LLC (``Phlx'' or the ``Exchange'')
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ``Commission'')
the 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend the Exchange's Pricing Schedule
under Section VIII, entitled ``NASDAQ PSX FEES,'' (``Pricing
Schedule'') with respect to execution and routing of orders in
securities priced at $1 or more per share.
    While these amendments are effective upon filing, the Exchange has
designated the proposed amendments to be operative on September 1,
2016. The text of the proposed rule change is available on the
Exchange's Web site at http://nasdaqomxphlx.cchwallstreet.com/, at the
principal office of the Exchange, 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 purpose of the proposed rule change is to add a credit tier for
order execution and routing applicable to the use of the order
execution and routing services of the NASDAQ PSX System (``PSX
System'') by member organizations for all securities traded at $1 or
more per share.
    Specifically, the Exchange proposes to amend its Pricing Schedule
to include a new credit tier for providing liquidity through the PSX
System for displayed quotes/orders. The new credit tier will be for
$0.0027 per share executed for displayed quotes/orders entered by a
member organization that provides and accesses 0.15% or more of
consolidated volume (``Consolidated Volume'') during the month.
    The proposed new credit tier is positioned to fall between two
similar existing credit tiers. It will provide a higher credit, $0.0027
per share executed, than an existing credit tier, $0.0025 per share
executed, but it also has a higher threshold of required activity. The
new credit tier requires a member to provide and access 0.15% of
Consolidated Volume during the month versus the existing 0.05% for the
$0.0025 credit tier.
    Alternatively the new credit tier will provide a lower credit than
the existing $0.0029 per share executed credit tier, but also has a
lower required Consolidated Volume threshold. The $0.0029 per share
executed credit tier requires a member to provide and access 0.25% of
Consolidated Volume during the month, while the new credit tier only
requires a member to provide and access 0.15% of Consolidated Volume
during the month.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the provisions of section 6 of the Act,\3\ in general, and with
section 6(b)(4) and 6(b)(5) of the Act,\4\ in particular, in that it
provides for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and
other charges among members and issuers and other persons using any
facility or system which the Exchange operates or controls, and is not
designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers,
brokers, or dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78f.
    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4) and (5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed rule change to the credit tiers under the Exchange's
Pricing Schedule, section VIII, are reflective of the Exchange's
ongoing efforts to use pricing incentive programs to attract order flow
to the Exchange and improve market quality. The goal of these pricing
incentives is to provide meaningful incentives for members to increase
their participation on the Exchange.
    The Exchange believes that the new credit tier for displayed
quotes/orders for a member organization providing liquidity through the
PSX System of $0.0027 per share executed in The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC
(``Nasdaq'')--listed securities, securities listed on the New York
Stock Exchange (``NYSE''), and securities listed on exchanges other
than Nasdaq and NYSE is reasonable because it is consistent with other
credits that the Exchange provides to members that access and/or
provide liquidity. As a general principle the Exchange chooses to offer
credits to members in return for market improving behavior. The various
credits the Exchange provides for members require them to significantly
contribute to market quality by accessing and/or providing certain
levels of Consolidated Volume. The proposed credit tier will be
provided to members that provide and access liquidity in all securities
of 0.15% or more of Consolidated Volume during the month.
    The Exchange also believes that this proposed rule change is
consistent with an equitable allocation of fees and are not unfairly
discriminatory because the new credit tier for non-displayed orders/
quotes is uniformly available to all members and affects all members
equally and in the same way. Additionally, the proposed new credit tier
will further encourage market participant activity and will also
support price discovery and liquidity provision.

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended.\5\
The Exchange notes that it operates in a highly competitive market in
which market participants can readily favor dozens of different
competing exchanges and alternative trading systems if they deem
charges at a particular venue to be excessive, or credit opportunities
available at other venues to be more favorable. In such an environment,
the Exchange must continually adjust its charges and credits to remain
competitive with other exchanges. Because competitors are free to
modify their own charges and credits in response, and because market
participants may readily adjust their order routing practices, the
Exchange believes that the degree to which changes to charges and
credits in this market may impose any burden on competition is
extremely limited.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    In this instance, the proposed new credit tier for member
organizations entering orders in the PSX System for displayed orders
that provide liquidity does not impose a burden on competition because
Exchange membership is optional and is the subject of competition from
other exchanges. These adjustments are reflective of the intent to
increase the order flow on the Exchange. For these reasons, the
Exchange does not believe that the proposed changes will impair the
ability of members or competing order execution venues to maintain
their competitive standing in the financial markets. Moreover, because
there are numerous competitive alternatives to the use of the Exchange,
it is likely that the Exchange will lose market share as a result of
the changes if they are unattractive to market participants.
    Accordingly, the Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule
change will impair the ability of members or competing order execution
venues to maintain their competitive standing in the financial markets.

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

    No written comments were either solicited or received.

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

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \6\ and paragraph (f) of Rule 19b-4 \7\
thereunder. 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 will institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed
rule change should be approved or disapproved.
