Comment Info: =================

General Comment:Dear Mr. Zeller:

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

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

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

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

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2011-0725; Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-065-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Model 767-200, -300,
and -300F Series Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain model 767-200, -300, and -300F series airplanes. This proposed
AD would require doing certain wiring changes, installing a new relay
and necessary wiring in the cabin air conditioning and temperature
control system (CACTCS), and performing an operational test of the
cooling pack fire suppression system. This AD results from reports of
loss of avionics cooling due to an unserviceable relay installed on a
panel as part of the CACTCS. We are proposing this AD to prevent loss
of electrical equipment bay cooling and the overheating of flight deck
instruments, which would result in the eventual loss of primary flight
displays, an unusually high pilot workload, and depressurization of the
cabin.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by October 11,
2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed
under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2011-0725;
Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-065-AD'' at the beginning of your
comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this proposed AD. We
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this proposed AD because of those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this proposed AD.

Discussion

    We received reports of loss of avionics cooling due to an
unserviceable relay. This relay was one of six relays installed on a
panel as part of the CACTCS. The failure of this relay caused a smoke
mode solenoid to energize, causing the air conditioning system to go
into a Class E fire suppression mode, the right side of the relay pack
to turn off, and the left-side relay pack to go into low-flow mode.
Over time, this caused insufficient equipment cooling and the slow
depressurization of the cabin. This condition, if not corrected, could
result in loss of electrical equipment bay cooling and the overheating
of flight deck instruments, which would result in the eventual loss of
all primary flight displays, an unusually high pilot workload, and
depressurization of the cabin.

Relevant Service Information

    We reviewed Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletins 767-21-0246,
dated January 7, 2011 (for Model 767-200 and 767-300 series airplanes);
and 767-21-0234, dated August 6, 2009 (for Model 767-300F series
airplanes). These service bulletins describe procedures for changing
the wire bundle route and wiring, installing a new relay and applicable
wiring in the CACTCS, and doing an operational test of the cooling pack
fire suppression system.

FAA's Determination and Proposed AD Requirements

    We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of these same type
designs. This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions
specified in the service information described previously.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 35 airplanes of U.S.
registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 operational test.                            = $2,465 per relay
                                              installation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 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 this proposed
regulation:
    (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),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-82066; File No. SR-NYSEArca-2017-85]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSEArca, Inc.; Notice of Filing
of Amendment No. 3, and Order Granting Accelerated Approval of a
Proposed Rule Change, as Modified by Amendment No. 3, To Amend NYSE
Arca Rule 8.700-E and To List and Trade Shares of the ProShares
European Volatility Futures ETF

November 13, 2017.

I. Introduction

    On July 28, 2017, NYSE Arca, Inc. (``NYSE Arca'' or ``Exchange'')
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''),
pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to:
(1) Amend NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E to expand the list of financial
instruments that may be held by a trust that issues Managed Trust
Securities; and (2) to list and trade shares (``Shares'') of the
ProShares European Volatility Futures ETF (``Fund'') under proposed
amended NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E. The proposed rule change was published
for comment in the Federal Register on August 16, 2017.\3\ On September

change, which amended and replaced the original filing in its entirety.
On September 26, 2017, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\4\ the
Commission designated a longer period within which to either approve
the proposed rule change, disapprove the proposed rule change, or
institute proceedings to determine whether to disapprove the proposed
rule change.\5\ On November 2, 2017, the Exchange filed Amendment No. 2
to the proposed rule change, which amended and replaced in its entirety
the proposed rule change as modified by Amendment No. 1. On November 9,
2017, the Exchange filed Amendment No. 3 to the proposed rule
change.\6\ The Commission has received no comments on the proposed rule
change. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on
Amendment No. 3 from interested persons, and is approving the proposed
rule change, as modified by Amendment No. 3 on an accelerated basis.

Fund's NAV calculation methodology and the availability of price
information for the Fund's permitted investments; (8) modified its
description of the Indicative Optimized Portfolio Value (``IOPV'')
methodology; (9) provided information regarding the dissemination of
the NAV and the availability of pricing for the EURO STOXX 50 Index
(``Index''), VSTOXX, and the Fund's benchmark; (10) represented that
its surveillance procedures are adequate to continue to properly
monitor the trading of the Managed Trust Securities that hold
futures on VSTOXX (``Futures Contracts'') and/or swaps on VSTOXX in
all trading sessions and to deter and detect violations of Exchange
rules; (11) clarified where Futures Contracts are listed; (12)
clarified the Fund's primary investment objective; and (13) made
certain technical changes. Amendment No. 3 is available on the
Commission's Web site at: https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-nysearca-2017-85/nysearca201785-2678502-161479.pdf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Summary of the Proposed Rule Change, as Modified by Amendment No. 3
7
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Additional information regarding the Shares and the Trust,
including investment strategies, risks, NAV calculation, creation
and redemption procedures, fees, Trust (as defined herein) holdings,
and taxes, among other information, is included in Amendment No. 3,
supra note 7, and the Registration Statement, infra note 12.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E to add the
VSTOXX as a reference asset to the futures contracts and swaps that may
be held by trusts that issue Managed Trust Securities.\8\ NYSE Arca
Rule 8.700-E governs the listing and trading of Managed Trust
Securities on the Exchange. Additionally, the Exchange proposes to list
and trade the Shares under the proposed rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ Managed Trust Security is a security that is registered
under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a), as amended (the
``Securities Act''), and (1) is issued by a trust that (a) is a
commodity pool as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C.
1), and that is managed by a commodity pool operator registered with
the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and (b) holds long and/or
short positions in exchange-traded futures contracts and/or certain
currency forward contracts and/or swaps selected by the trust's
advisor consistent with the trust's investment objectives, which
will only include, exchange-traded futures contracts involving
commodities, commodity indices, currencies, currency indices, stock
indices, fixed income indices, interest rates and sovereign, private
and mortgage or asset backed debt instruments, and/or forward
contracts on specified currencies, and/or swaps on stock indices,
fixed income indices, commodity indices, commodities, currencies,
currency indices, or interest rates, each as disclosed in the
trust's prospectus as such may be amended from time to time, and
cash and cash equivalents; and (2) is issued and redeemed
continuously in specified aggregate amounts at the next applicable
NAV. See NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E (c)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

A. Proposed Amendments to NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E

    The Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E (c)(1) to add
the VSTOXX as a reference asset to the futures contracts and swaps that
may be held by trusts that issue Managed Trust Securities.
    The VSTOXX is a non-investable index that seeks to measure the
volatility of the Index over a future time horizon as implied by the
price of option contracts on the Index.\9\ It is based on real-time
prices of options on the Index listed on the Eurex Exchange
(``Eurex''),\10\ and is designed to reflect the market expectations of
near-term up to long-term volatility by measuring the square root of
the implied variances across all options of a given time to expiration.
The Index includes 50 stocks that are among the largest free-float
market capitalization stocks from 11 Eurozone countries.\11\ STOXX
Limited (``STOXX'') computes the Index on a real-time basis throughout
each trading day, from 3:50 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. Eastern Time. The
Index value is widely disseminated by major market data vendors on a
real-time basis throughout each trading day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The VSTOXX does not measure the actual volatility of the
Index.
    \10\ Eurex is a member of the Intermarket Surveillance Group
(``ISG'') and, as such, the Exchange may obtain information
regarding trading in the futures contracts on VSTOXX listed by
Eurex.
    \11\ The countries are: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France,
Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and
Spain.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Futures Contracts are cash settled and trade exclusively on Eurex
between the hours of 2:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Eastern

Time.\12\ The value of these futures contracts is 100 Euros per index
point of the underlying, and it is traded to two decimal places with a
minimum price change of 0.05 points (equivalent to a value of 5 Euros).
The daily settlement price of these futures contracts is determined
during the closing auctions. The last trading day and final settlement
day is 30 calendar days prior to the third Friday of the expiration
month of the underlying options, which is usually the Wednesday prior
to the second to last Friday of the respective maturity month.
Information regarding the VSTOXX and the overlying futures can be found
on STOXX's Web site and the Eurex Web site, respectively.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Amendment No. 3, supra note 7, at 7, n.10, and 5.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. The Listing and Trading of the Shares

    The Exchange proposes to list and trade the Shares under proposed
NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E. The Fund will be a commodity pool that is a
series of the ProShares Trust II (``Trust'').\13\ The Fund's sponsor,
ProShare Capital Management LLC (``Sponsor''), is registered as a
commodity pool operator and is affiliated with a Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority (``FINRA'')-registered broker-dealer. Brown
Brothers Harriman & Co. will be the administrator, custodian and
transfer agent of the Fund and the Shares. SEI Investments Distribution
Co. (``SEI'') will be the distributor for the Shares. The Fund's
primary investment objective will be to provide long exposure to lead-
month Futures Contracts, and the Fund will use the Futures Contracts as
a performance benchmark (``Benchmark''). The Fund will be actively
managed and will have a secondary investment objective to outperform
the Benchmark by actively managing the ``rolling'' of its Futures
Contracts.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ On May 12, 2017, the Trust filed with the Commission a
registration statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act relating
to the Fund (File No. 333-217962) (``Registration Statement''). The
description of the operation of the Trust and the Fund herein is
based, in part, on the Registration Statement.
    \14\ The Fund will not seek to track or outperform either the
VSTOXX or the Index, and the performance of the Fund will be very
different from the performance of either the VSTOXX Index or the
Index.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Under normal market conditions,\15\ the Fund generally will seek to
remain fully invested at all times in lead-month Futures Contracts in a
manner consistent with its investment objectives without regard to
market conditions, trends, or direction.\16\ The Fund will invest the
remainder of its un-invested assets in high-quality, short-term debt
instruments that have terms-to-maturity of less than 397 days, such as
U.S. government securities and repurchase agreements (``Money Market
Instruments'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ ``Normal market conditions'' is defined in NYSE Arca Rule
8.600-E (c)(5).
    \16\ See Amendment No. 3, supra note 7, at 8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Under limited circumstances, the Fund also may invest in swap
contracts (``Swap Contracts'') that reference the Benchmark. In the
event position price or accountability limits are reached with respect
to lead month Futures Contracts, the Sponsor may, in its commercially
reasonable judgment, cause the Fund to invest in Swap Contracts.\17\
The Fund may also invest in Swap Contracts if the market for a specific
Futures Contract experiences an emergency (e.g., natural disaster,
terrorist attack or an act of God) or disruption (e.g., a trading halt
or a flash crash) which, in the Sponsor's commercially reasonable
judgment, prevent, or otherwise make it impractical, for the Fund to
obtain the appropriate amount of investment exposure to the affected
Futures Contracts.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ See id. The Fund intends to enter into Swap Contracts only
with major, global financial institutions; however, there are no
limitations on the percentage of its assets the Fund may invest in
Swap Contracts with a particular counterparty. The Fund may use
various techniques to minimize credit risk. The Fund will seek to
mitigate risks in connection with the uncleared OTC swaps by
generally requiring that the counterparties for the Fund agree to
post collateral for the benefit of the Fund, marked to market daily,
subject to certain minimum thresholds.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Fund will also hold cash or cash equivalents, such as U.S.
Treasury securities or other high credit quality, short-term fixed-
income or similar securities (such as shares of money market funds and
collateralized repurchase agreements), for direct investment, as
collateral for its futures and Swap Contracts, or pending investment in
Futures Contracts and Swap Contracts. The Fund may invest up to 100% of
its assets in any of these types of cash or cash equivalent securities.

III. Discussion and Commission's Findings

    After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed rule
change is consistent with the requirements of Section 6 of the Act \18\
and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to a national
securities exchange.\19\ In particular, the Commission finds that the
proposal is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\20\ which
requires, among other things, that the Exchange's rules 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. The Commission also finds
that the proposal is consistent with Section 11A(a)(1)(C)(iii) of the
Act,\21\ which sets forth Congress' finding that it is in the public
interest and appropriate for the protection of investors and the
maintenance of fair and orderly markets to assure the availability to
brokers, dealers, and investors of information with respect to
quotations for, and transactions in, securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ 15 U.S.C. 78f.
    \19\ In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has
considered the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition,
and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \20\ 17 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \21\ 15 U.S.C. 78k-1(a)(1)(C)(iii).

A. Exchange's Proposal To Amend Rule 8.700-E 22
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \22\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 79975 (February 6,
2017), 82 FR 10418 (February 10, 2017) (SR-NYSEArca-2017-08) (adding
EURO STOXX 50 Volatility Futures to the definition of Futures
Reference Asset in Rule 5.2(j)(6)); Securities Exchange Act Release
No. 79069 (October 7, 2016), 81 FR 70714 (October 13, 2016) (SR-
BatsBZX-2016-26) (amending Bats BZX Exchange Rule 14.11(d) to add
EURO STOXX 50 Volatility Futures to the definition of Futures
Reference Asset).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With respect to the proposal to amend NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E (c)(1)
to add the VSTOXX as a reference asset to the futures contracts and
swaps that may be held by trusts that issue Managed Trust Securities,
the Commission notes that VSTOXX is included as a reference asset for
Futures-Linked Securities,\23\ and notwithstanding the addition of
VSTOXX as a reference asset, the existing initial and continued listing
criteria applicable to Managed Trust Securities would continue to
apply. These continued listing standards require, among other things,
that: (1) The Disclosed Portfolio (as defined in NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E
(c)(2)) be disseminated at least daily and to all market participants
at the same time; (2) an Intraday Indicative Value be calculated and
widely disseminated by one or more major market data vendors on at
least a 15-second basis during the Exchange's Core Trading Session; and
(3) following the initial 12-month period after the commencement of
trading of an issue of Managed Trust Securities, (a) the trust must
have 50,000 or more

Managed Trust Securities issued and outstanding, (b) the market value
of all Managed Trust Securities issued and outstanding must be
$1,000,000 or more, and (c) there must be 50 or more record and/or
beneficial holders.\24\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \23\ See NYSE Arca Rule 5.2-E (j)(6)(v).
    \24\ See NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E(e)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Additionally, the Commission notes that the Exchange has
represented that its surveillance procedures are adequate to continue
to properly monitor the trading of the Managed Trust Securities that
hold Futures Contracts and/or swaps on VSTOXX in all trading sessions
and to deter and detect violations of Exchange rules.\25\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \25\ See Amendment No. 3, supra note 7, at 6.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Exchange's Proposal To List and Trade the ProShares European
Volatility Futures ETF

    The Commission notes the Exchange deems the Shares to be equity
securities, thus rendering trading in the Shares subject to the
Exchange's existing rules governing the trading of equity securities.
Quotation and last-sale information for the Shares will be available
via the Consolidated Tape Association (``CTA'') high-speed line, and
the previous day's closing price and trading volume information for the
Shares will be published daily in the financial section of newspapers.
In addition, information regarding market price and trading volume of
the Shares will be continually available on a real-time basis
throughout the day on brokers' computer screens and other electronic
services.
    The Commission believes that the proposal to list and trade the
Shares is reasonably designed to promote fair disclosure of information
that may be necessary to price the Shares appropriately and to prevent
trading when a reasonable degree of transparency cannot be assured. The
Trust's NAV and the NAV per Share will be calculated and disseminated
daily. The Exchange will disseminate for the Trust on a daily basis by
means of the CTA high-speed line information with respect to the most
recent NAV per Share, and the number of Shares outstanding. The
Exchange also will make available on its Web site daily trading volume,
closing prices and the NAV per Share. The IOPV for the Shares will be
widely disseminated by one or more major market data vendors at least
every 15 seconds during the Exchange's Core Trading Session. On a daily
basis, the Trust will disclose on its Web site (www.Proshares.com) for
all of the assets held by the Fund the following information: Name;
ticker symbol (if applicable); CUSIP or other identifier (if
applicable); description of the holding; with respect to derivatives,
the identity of the security, commodity, index or other underlying
asset; the quantity or aggregate amount of the holding as measured by
par value, notional value or amount, number of contracts or number of
units (if applicable); maturity date; coupon rate (if applicable);
effective date or issue date (if applicable); market value; percentage
weighting in the Disclosed Portfolio; and expiration date (if
applicable). The Trust's Web site will also include the current
prospectus of the Trust and additional data relating to NAV and other
applicable quantitative information. The Web site information will be
publicly available at no charge. Pricing for the Index, VSTOXX, the
Benchmark, Swap Contracts, cash equivalents, and Money Market
Instruments will be available from major market data vendors. Pricing
for Futures Contracts will be available from Eurex.
    The Exchange will obtain a representation from the Trust that the
NAV and the NAV per Share will be calculated daily and that the NAV,
the NAV per Share, and the composition of the Disclosed Portfolio will
be made available to all market participants at the same time. Further,
trading in the Shares will be subject to NYSE Arca Rules 7.12-E and
8.700-E(e)(2)(D), which set forth circumstances under which trading in
the Shares may be halted. Trading also may be halted because of market
conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the Exchange, make
trading in the Shares inadvisable.\26\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \26\ These may include: (1) The extent to which trading is not
occurring in the underlying futures contracts or swaps; or (2)
whether other unusual conditions or circumstances detrimental to the
maintenance of a fair and orderly market are present.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Further, the Reporting Authority that provides the Disclosed
Portfolio must implement and maintain, or be subject to, procedures
designed to prevent the use and dissemination of material, non-public
information regarding the actual components of the portfolio.\27\ The
Exchange represents that it has a general policy prohibiting the
distribution of material, non-public information by its employees.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \27\ See NYSE Arca Rule 8.700-E(e)(2)(B)(ii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In support of this proposal, the Exchange has made the following
representations:
    (1) The Trust will be subject to the criteria in NYSE Arca Rule
8.700-E for initial and continued listing of the Shares.
    (2) In the event (a) the Sponsor becomes a broker-dealer or newly
affiliated with a broker-dealer, or (b) any new sponsor becomes
affiliated with a broker-dealer, such broker-dealer shall erect and
maintain a ``fire wall'' around the personnel of the sponsor who have
access to information concerning changes and adjustments to the
Disclosed Portfolio.\28\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \28\ The Exchange also states that the Sponsor's Code of Ethics
and internal controls are designed to prevent and detect improper
exchanges of information concerning the composition and/or changes
to the Fund's portfolio.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (3) Personnel of the Sponsor who make decisions regarding the
composition of the Disclosed Portfolio must be subject to procedures
designed to prevent the use and dissemination of material nonpublic
information regarding the Disclosed Portfolio.
    (4) The Exchange has appropriate rules to facilitate transactions
in the Shares during all trading sessions.
    (5) Trading in the Shares will be subject to the existing trading
surveillances administered by the Exchange, as well as cross-market
surveillances administered by FINRA on behalf of the Exchange, and
these procedures are adequate to properly monitor Exchange trading of
the Shares in all trading sessions and to deter and detect violations
of Exchange rules and applicable federal securities laws.\29\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \29\ The Exchange states that FINRA conducts cross-market
surveillances on behalf of the Exchange pursuant to a regulatory
services agreement, and that the Exchange is responsible for FINRA's
performance under this regulatory services agreement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (6) The Exchange or FINRA, on behalf of the Exchange, or both, will
communicate as needed regarding trading in the Shares and Futures
Contracts with other markets or other entities that are members of the
ISG, and the Exchange or FINRA, on behalf of the Exchange, or both, may
obtain trading information regarding trading in the Shares and Futures
Contracts from such markets or entities. In addition, the Exchange may
obtain information regarding trading in the Shares and Futures
Contracts from markets or other entities that are members of ISG or
with which the Exchange has in place a comprehensive surveillance
sharing agreement. FINRA, on behalf of the Exchange, is able to access,
as needed, trade information for certain Money Market Instruments held
by the Fund reported to FINRA's TRACE.
    (7) Prior to the commencement of trading, the Exchange will inform
its ETP Holders in an Information Bulletin (``Bulletin'') of the
special characteristics and risks associated with trading the Shares.
Specifically, the Bulletin will discuss the following: (a) The
procedures for purchases and

redemptions of Shares (and that Shares are not individually
redeemable); (b) NYSE Arca Rule 9.2-E (a), which imposes a duty of due
diligence on its ETP Holders to learn the essential facts relating to
every customer prior to trading the Shares; (c) the requirement that
ETP Holders deliver a prospectus to investors purchasing newly issued
Shares prior to or concurrently with the confirmation of a transaction;
(d) how information regarding the IOPV and the Disclosed Portfolio is
disseminated; (e) the risks involved in trading the Shares during the
opening and late trading sessions when an updated IOPV will not be
calculated or publicly disseminated; and (f) trading information.
    (8) The Exchange represents that, for the initial and continued
listing of the Shares, the Trust must be in compliance with NYSE Arca
Rule 5.3-E and Rule 10A-3 under the Act.
    (9) A minimum of 100,000 Shares will be outstanding at the start of
trading on the Exchange.
    (10) All statements and representations made in this filing
regarding (a) the description of the portfolio of the Fund and
Benchmark, (b) limitations on portfolio of the Fund and Benchmark, or
(c) the applicability of Exchange listing rules specified in this rule
filing shall constitute continued listing requirements for listing the
Shares on the Exchange.
    (11) In addition, the issuer has represented to the Exchange that
it will advise the Exchange of any failure by the Fund to comply with
the continued listing requirements, and, pursuant to its obligations
under Section 19(g)(1) of the Act, the Exchange will monitor for
compliance with the continued listing requirements. If a Fund is not in
compliance with the applicable listing requirements, the Exchange will
commence delisting procedures under NYSE Arca Rule 5.5-E (m).

This approval order is based on all of the Exchange's representations,
including those set forth above and in Amendment No. 3.

IV. Solicitation of Comments on Amendment No. 3 to the Proposed Rule
Change

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning whether Amendment No. 3 are consistent with the

V. Accelerated Approval of Proposed Rule Change, as Modified by
Amendment No. 3

    The Commission finds good cause to approve the proposed rule
change, as modified by Amendment No. 3, prior to the thirtieth day
after the date of publication of notice of the filing of Amendment No.
3 in the Federal Register. Amendment No. 3 supplements the proposed
rule change by, among other things: (1) Representing that the VSTOXX
levels will be widely disseminated by major market data vendors on a
real-time basis throughout each trading day; (2) expanding its
representation regarding when the Sponsor would erect a ``fire wall,''
and representing that the Sponsor will maintain the ``fire wall'' it
implemented regarding access to information concerning the composition
and/or changes to the Fund's portfolio; (3) narrowing the list of the
Fund's permitted investments to exclude forwards; (4) supplementing its
description of the availability of price information for the Fund's
permitted investments; (5) providing information regarding the
dissemination of the Trust's NAV; and (6) making representations
regarding the Exchange's surveillance of Managed Trust Securities.
These changes assisted the Commission in evaluating whether the
proposal would be consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act.
Accordingly, the Commission finds good cause, pursuant to Section
19(b)(2) of the Act,\30\ to approve the proposed rule change, as
modified by Amendment No. 3, on an accelerated basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \30\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

VI. Conclusion

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\31\ that the proposed rule change (SR-NYSEArca-2017-85), as
modified by Amendment No. 3 be, and it hereby is, approved on an
accelerated basis.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. What information is EPA particularly interested in?

    Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of PRA, EPA specifically solicits
comments and information to enable it to:
    1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility.
    2. Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency's estimates of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected.
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic
submission of responses. In particular, EPA is requesting comments from
very small businesses (those that employ less than 25) on examples of
specific additional efforts that EPA could make to reduce the paperwork
burden for very small businesses affected by this collection.

II. What should I consider when I prepare my comments for EPA?

    You may find the following suggestions helpful for preparing your
comments:
    1. Explain your views as clearly as possible and provide specific
examples.
    2. Describe any assumptions that you used.
    3. Provide copies of any technical information and/or data you used
that support your views.
    4. If you estimate potential burden or costs, explain how you
arrived at the estimate that you provide.
    5. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns.
    6. Offer alternative ways to improve the collection activity.
    7. Make sure to submit your comments by the deadline identified
under DATES.
    8. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, be sure to identify the docket
ID number assigned to this action in the subject line on the first page
of your response. You may also provide the name, date, and Federal
Register citation.

III. What do I need to know about PRA?

    An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information subject to PRA approval
unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB
control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), after appearing in the preamble of the final
rule, are further displayed either by publication in the Federal
Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related
collection instruments or form, if applicable. The display of OMB
control numbers for certain EPA regulations is consolidated in a list
at 40 CFR 9.1.
    Under PRA, burden means the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This
includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire,
install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of
collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information;
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train
personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search
data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and
transmit or otherwise disclose the information.

IV. Which ICRs are being renewed?

    EPA is planning to submit a number of currently approved ICRs to
OMB for review and approval under PRA. In addition to specifically
identifying the ICRs by title and corresponding ICR, OMB and docket ID
numbers, this unit provides a brief summary of the information
collection activity and the Agency's estimated burden. The Supporting
Statement for each ICR, a copy of which is available in the
corresponding docket, provides a more detailed explanation.

A. Docket ID Number EPA-HQ-OPP-2011-0704

    Title: Submission of Protocols and Study Reports for Environmental
Research Involving Human Subjects.
    ICR number: EPA ICR No. 2195.04.
    OMB control number: OMB Control No. 2070-0169.
    ICR status: The approval for this ICR is scheduled to expire on
August 31, 2012.
    Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR
include anyone who submits protocols and study reports for
environmental research involving human subjects under FIFRA and/or
FFDCA. Although EPA has only received such third-party research (i.e.,
research that is not conducted or supported by EPA) in conjunction with
FIFRA from pesticide registrants, it is conceivable that other entities
could submit such information in the future. Principal respondents to
this ICR are employers of physical, engineering, and life scientists in
the fields of research and development.
    Abstract: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency)
is responsible for the regulation of pesticides under the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA). In January 2006, EPA issued a
final rule to amend the Federal Policy for the Protection of Human
Subjects (also known as the Common Rule) at 40 CFR part 26. The
information collection activity imposed by this final rule consists of
activity-driven reporting and recordkeeping requirements for those who
intend to conduct research for submission to EPA under the pesticide
laws.
    In addition to other protections, if such research involves
intentional

dosing of human subjects, these individuals (respondents) are required
to submit study protocols to EPA and a cognizant local Human Subjects
IRB before such research is initiated so that the scientific design and
ethical standards that will be employed during the proposed study may
be reviewed and approved. Also, respondents are required to submit
information about the ethical conduct of completed research that
involved human subjects when such research is submitted to EPA.
    Burden statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 598
hours per response for research involving intentional exposure of human
subjects, and 12 hours per response for all other submitted research
with human subjects. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This
includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire,
install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of
collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information;
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train
personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search
data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and
transmit or otherwise disclose the information. The information
requirements identified in the final rule do not duplicate other
federal agency information collections.
    The ICR, a copy of which is available in the docket, provides a
detailed explanation of this estimate, which is only briefly summarized
here:
    Estimated total number of potential respondents: 54.
    Frequency of response: On occasion.
    Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 1.
    Estimated total annual burden hours: 20,572 hours.
    Estimated total annual costs: $1,712,833. This includes an
estimated burden cost of $1,712,833 and no additional cost for non-
burden hour paperwork costs, e.g., investment or maintenance and
operational costs.
    Changes in the estimates from the last approval: The renewal of
this ICR will not result in a change in the number of hours in the
total estimated respondent burden identified in the currently approved
ICR.

B. Docket ID Number EPA-HQ-OPP-2011-0902

    Title: Consumer Research through Focus Groups to Develop Improved
Labeling for Pesticide Products.
    ICR number: EPA ICR No. 2367.02.
    OMB control number: OMB Control No. 2070-0175.
    ICR status: The approval for this ICR is scheduled to expire on
August 31, 2012.
    Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR are
members of the general public who volunteer to participate in a focus
group.
    Abstract: EPA intends to renew a voluntary information collection
for consumer research involving the use of focus groups to test various
versions of pesticide product labels and other informational materials
intended for the general public. The purpose of this research is to
identify the consumer's understanding of the information on a pesticide
product label to assure that the consumer can effectively use this
information to select the pesticide product most likely to meet their
needs and can readily understand label instructions regarding the safe
use, handling, and disposal of the product. The collected information
will be used to inform the Agency on the need for and nature of
potential revisions to EPA guidance and regulations regarding pesticide
product labels and to create other user-friendly consumer information
materials.
    Burden statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 2
hours per response. The ICR, a copy of which is available in the
docket, provides a detailed explanation of this estimate, which is only
briefly summarized here:
    Estimated total number of potential respondents: 300.
    Frequency of response: On occasion.
    Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 1.
    Estimated total annual burden hours: 200 hours.
    Estimated total annual costs: $6,014. There are no capital
expenditures or operational and maintenance costs associated with this
collection activity.
    Changes in the estimates from the last approval: The renewal of
this ICR will result in an overall decrease of 181.34 hours in the
total estimated respondent burden identified in the currently approved
ICR. This decrease reflects EPA's actual costs of conducting a series
of 10 focus groups in 2010. This change is an adjustment.

V. What is the next step in the process for these ICRs?

    EPA will consider the comments received and amend the individual
ICRs as appropriate. The final ICR packages will then be submitted to
OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. EPA will issue
another Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to
announce the submission of these ICRs to OMB and the opportunity for
the public to submit additional comments for OMB consideration. If you
have any questions about any of these ICRs or the approval process in
general, please contact the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

Airworthiness Directives; Piaggio Aviation S.p.A. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for certain Piaggio Aviation S.p.A. (Piaggio) Model P-180 airplanes.
This proposed AD was prompted by a report of corrosion on the various
aluminum alloy reinforcements in the horizontal stabilizer (HS) central
box caused by a humid environment inside the box from water ingress
and/or condensation. This proposed AD would require a one-time detailed
inspection of the HS central box for corrosion; an assessment of the
corrosion level; and depending on the determination, repetitive
detailed inspections of the HS central box for corrosion and the
internal composite structure for surface cracks, distortion, and
damage; and repair or replacement of the HS assembly. Repair or
replacement of the HS assembly would be terminating action for the
repetitive inspections. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the
unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this NPRM by October 23, 2023.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

Background

    The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the
Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued
EASA AD 2023-0007, dated January 13, 2023 (referred to after this as
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition on certain serial-
numbered Piaggio Model P-180 airplanes.
    The MCAI states that an occurrence of corrosion was found inside
the HS central box of a Piaggio Model P-180 airplane during scheduled
maintenance. A subsequent investigation and inspection of 16 other
Piaggio Model P-180 airplanes of various configurations and ages
revealed that corrosion of differing levels of severity was found on
various aluminum alloy reinforcements in the HS central box of all the
inspected airplanes. The MCAI also states that this corrosion was
caused by the formation of a humid environment inside the HS central
box, from water ingress and/or condensation. Further investigation
revealed that airplanes left in prolonged inactivity or parked outside
are more prone to develop corrosion damage.
    To address the unsafe condition, the MCAI requires a one-time
detailed inspection of the HS central box for corrosion, contacting
Piaggio for a determination of the corrosion level, and depending on
that determination, repetitive detailed inspections of the HS central
box for corrosion and the internal composite structure for surface
cracks, distortion, and damage; and depending on the results, repair or
replacement of the HS assembly. The MCAI states that repair or
replacement of the HS assembly is terminating action for the repetitive
inspections.
    This condition, if not addressed, could result in reduced
structural integrity of the HS, and loss of control of the airplane.
    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at regulations.gov under
Docket No. FAA-2023-1819.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Piaggio Aerospace Service Bulletin 80-0489,
Revision 2, dated November 30, 2022 (Piaggio SB 80-0489, Revision 2).
This service information specifies procedures for a one-time detailed
inspection of the HS central box for corrosion, a report of the
inspection results to Piaggio for a determination of the corrosion
level, repetitive inspections of the HS central box as needed, and
applicable corrective actions. The corrective actions include
installation of a serviceable HS assembly, which is terminating action
for the repetitive inspections.
    This service information is reasonably available because the
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of
business or by the means identified in ADDRESSES.

FAA's Determination

    These products have been approved by the aviation authority of
another country and are approved for operation in the United States.
Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral agreement with this State of Design
Authority, it has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition described in
the MCAI and service information described above. The FAA is issuing
this NPRM after determining that the unsafe condition described
previously is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified
in the MCAI, except as discussed under ``Differences Between this
Proposed AD and the MCAI.''

Differences Between This Proposed AD and the MCAI

    The MCAI requires contacting the manufacturer for a determination
of the corrosion level if any corrosion is found during the initial
inspection of the HS central box, and if it is determined that level 2
or 3 corrosion is present, having the manufacturer provide the
threshold and intervals for doing repetitive inspections of the HS
central box. This proposed AD would require contacting either the FAA,
EASA, or Piaggio's EASA Design Organization Approval (DOA). If approved
by the DOA, the approval must include the DOA-authorized signature.
    Although Piaggio SB 80-0489, Revision 2, specifies to record the
image of the location of corroded areas, this proposed AD would not
require that action.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 102 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs

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

    The repair of the HS assembly that may be required as a result of
any inspection could vary significantly from airplane to airplane. The
FAA has no data to determine the costs to accomplish the repair or the
number of airplanes that may require the repair.

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.
    The FAA is 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

    The FAA 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 this proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, 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.
