33 CFR Part 117

[Docket No. USCG-2015-1011]
RIN 1625-AA09

Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Broad Creek, Laurel, DE

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is changing the regulation that governs the
operation of the Norfolk Southern Railroad Bridge over Broad Creek,
mile 8.0, at Laurel, DE. This final rule changes the current regulation
requiring a four-hour advance notice and allows the bridge to remain in
the closed to navigation position. This final rule aligns the operating
schedule with the observed lack of marine traffic that requires a
bridge opening and the operating regulations for the Poplar Street and
US Highway 13A, which also cross Broad Creek.

DATES: This rule is effective June 27, 2016.

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    On February 3, 2016, we published a notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM) entitled Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Broad Creek, Laurel,
DE in the Federal Register (81 FR 5679). We received one comment on
this rule.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority 33 U.S.C. 499.
The bridge owner, Norfolk Southern, made a request under 33 CFR 117.39
that the operating regulations be revised due to infrequent openings.
The Norfolk Southern Railroad Bridge over Broad Creek, mile 8.0, at
Laurel, DE, is a swing bridge that has a vertical clearance of fourteen
feet above mean high water in the closed to navigation position and is
unlimited in the open to navigation position.
    Presently, the bridge opens with 4 hour advance notice in
accordance with 33 CFR 117.233(a). This final rule changes the status
of the Norfolk Southern Broad Creek railroad bridge to need not open
for the passage of vessels. There have been no requests for openings
from vessels since Norfolk Southern acquired the bridge in 1999. In
order to align the operating schedule of the bridge with observed
marine traffic, this change amends the regulation to state that the
bridge need not open. The lack of requests from vessels for bridge
openings since 1999 illustrate that the vessels that use this waterway
can safely navigate while the drawbridge is in the closed-to-navigation
position.

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes and the Final Rule

    One comment was made in response to the NPRM. The comment was in
favor of the need not open status. There were no changes made to the
final rule from what was proposed in the NPRM.
    This rule changes the status of the Norfolk Southern Railroad
Bridge to need not open for the passage of vessels. This action aligns
the operating schedule of the bridge with the lack observed marine
traffic that requires an opening and with the operating schedule for
other drawbridges on this waterway. The change amends the regulation to
state that the bridge need not open.

V. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
Executive Orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on a number of these statutes and Executive Orders, and we
discuss First Amendment rights of protesters.

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 13563 emphasizes the importance of
quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing
rules, and of promoting flexibility. This rule has not been designated
a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order 12866.
Accordingly, it has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and
Budget. This regulatory action determination is based on the observed
lack of marine traffic that requires a bridge opening.

B. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA), 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 received no
comments from the Small Business Administration on this rule. The Coast
Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the
bridge may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section V.A
above, this rule will not have a significant economic impact on any
vessel owner or operator. As discussed in the NPRM, commercial traffic
on Broad Creek, DE has not been present since the 1970s. The gradual
change in the characteristics of the waterway shows that there will not
be a significant economic impact of changing the drawbridge operating
regulations on Broad Creek, DE.
    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 rule. If the 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,
above.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or
action of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This rule calls 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 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 rule does not have tribal implications under Executive
Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it does 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.

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 rule will not result in
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guides the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have made a
determination that this action is one of a category of actions which do
not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human
environment. This rule simply promulgates the operating regulations or
procedures for drawbridges. This action is categorically excluded from
further review, under figure 2-1, paragraph (32)(e), of the
Instruction.
    Under figure 2-1, paragraph (32)(e), of the Instruction, an
environmental analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion
determination are not 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.

    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on March 6, 2007, NYSE Arca, Inc. (``NYSE Arca'' or ``Exchange'') filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the
proposed rule change as described in Items I, II, and III below, which
Items have been substantially prepared by the Exchange. The Commission

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

    The Exchange, through its wholly-owned subsidiary NYSE Arca
Equities, Inc. (``NYSE Arca Equities''), proposes to waive 2007 listing
fees for any companies who, as of January 1, 2007, were dually listed
on NYSE Arca Equities, on the one hand, and another national securities
exchange, on the other hand, and have provided notice by June 30, 2007
to NYSE Arca Equities of their intention to voluntarily withdraw from
listing on NYSE Arca. The NYSE Arca schedule of listing fees will be
amended to note that, for those issuers dually listed on NYSE Arca
Equities on January 1, 2007 and who have given notice by June 30, 2007
to NYSE Arca Equities of their intention to voluntarily withdraw from
listing on NYSE Arca (and in fact withdraw during 2007), the 2007
annual listing fees will be waived.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
Web site (http://www.nysearca.com), 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 III 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, through NYSE Arca Equities, proposes to waive 2007
listing fees for any companies who, as of January 1, 2007, were dually
listed on NYSE Arca Equities, on the one hand, and another national
securities exchange, on the other hand, and have provided notice by
June 30, 2007 to NYSE Arca Equities of their intention to voluntarily
withdraw from listing on NYSE Arca. The NYSE Arca schedule of listing
fees will be amended to note that, for those issuers dually listed on
NYSE Arca Equities on January 1, 2007 who have given notice by June 30,
2007 to NYSE Arca Equities of their intention to voluntarily withdraw
from listing on NYSE Arca (and in fact withdraw during 2007), the 2007
annual listing fees will be waived.
    Effective January 1, 2007, the annual listing fees for all
companies listed on NYSE Arca Equities were increased.\3\ Many of the
issuers still dually listed on NYSE Arca Equities on January 1, 2007
had indicated to the Exchange their intention to voluntarily withdraw
from NYSE Arca. However, because of the dually listed issuers'
administrative or governance processes, some of these dually listed
issuers were unable to complete the withdrawal process before the new
fees became effective. In this instance, the Exchange believes that it
is appropriate to waive the 2007 listing fees for issuers dually listed
on NYSE Arca Equities as of January 1, 2007 who have given notice by
June 30, 2007 of their intention to voluntarily withdraw during 2007
and in fact withdraw during 2007.

2006), 71 FR 36155 (June 23, 2006) (SR-NYSEArca-2006-16).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the objectives of Section 6 of the Act \4\ in general and furthers
the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act \5\ in particular, in that
it is designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to
remove impediments, and to perfect the mechanism of, a free and open
market and a national market system, and, in general, to protect
investors and the public interest.

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

    Written comments on the proposed rule change were neither solicited
nor received.

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

    Within 35 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period (i) As the Commission may
designate up to 90 days of such date if it finds such longer period to
be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission will:
    (A) By order approve such proposed rule change, or
    (B) Institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
The Boeing Company Model DC-10-10, DC-10-10F, DC-10-15, DC-10-30, DC-
10-30F (KC-10A and KDC-10), DC-10-40

and DC-10-40F airplanes; and Model MD-10-10F and MD-10-30F airplanes.
This AD was prompted by a report that an operator found a crack in the
upper flange of the pylon aft bulkhead bracket. This AD requires a
general visual inspection of the left and right wing pylon at the aft
bulkhead bracket for any lockbolt and collar; repetitive surface and
open hole eddy current high frequency (ETHF) inspections of the left
and right wing pylon at the aft bulkhead bracket for any cracking; and
applicable on-condition actions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address
the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective May 25, 2021.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of May 25,
2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to all The Boeing Company
Model DC-10-10, DC-10-10F, DC-10-15, DC-10-30, DC-10-30F (KC-10A and
KDC-10), DC-10-40 and DC-10-40F airplanes; and Model MD-10-10F and MD-
10-30F airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on January
15, 2021 (86 FR 3885). The NPRM was prompted by a report that an
operator found a crack in the upper flange of the pylon aft bulkhead
bracket. In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to require a general visual
inspection of the left and right wing pylon at the aft bulkhead bracket
for any lockbolt and collar; repetitive surface and open hole ETHF
inspections of the left and right wing pylon at the aft bulkhead
bracket for any cracking; and applicable on-condition actions. The FAA
is issuing this AD to address possible cracking of the wing pylon at
the aft bulkhead bracket, which could result in the inability of the
pylon to sustain limit load and adversely affect the structural
integrity of the airplane.

Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive

Comments

    The FAA received a comment from The Air Line Pilots Association,
International (ALPA) who supported the NPRM without change.

Conclusion

    The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered any comments
received, and determined that air safety requires adopting this AD as
proposed. Except for minor editorial changes, this AD is adopted as
proposed in the NPRM. None of the changes will increase the economic
burden on any operator.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin DC10-54A111 RB,
dated June 26, 2020. The service information describes procedures for a
general visual inspection of the left and right wing pylon at the aft
bulkhead bracket for any lockbolt and collar; repetitive surface and
open hole ETHF inspections of the left and right wing pylon at the aft
bulkhead bracket for any cracking; and applicable on-condition actions.
On-condition actions include modifying any aft bulkhead bracket that
has a lockbolt and collar, and repair or replacement of the aft
bulkhead bracket.
    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.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 103 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary on-
condition modifications that would be required. The FAA has no way of
determining the number of aircraft that might need these on-condition
modifications:

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

    The FAA has received no definitive data on which to base the cost
estimates for the on-condition repairs and replacements specified in
this AD.

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

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) 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.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-58840; File No. SR-NASDAQ-2008-081]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC;
Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change
Related to Rules Governing Options Trading

October 23, 2008.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on October 10, 2008, The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (``Nasdaq'' or
``Exchange''), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II,
and III below, which Items have been substantially prepared by Nasdaq.
The Exchange has designated the proposed rule change as constituting a
``non-controversial'' rule change under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) under the
Act,\3\ which renders the proposal effective upon filing with the
Commission. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    Nasdaq proposes to amend the Nasdaq Options Market Rules (``NOM
Rules'') to eliminate the requirement for separate designations of
Senior Registered Options Principal (``SROP'') and Compliance
Registered Options Principal (``CROP''), to require a member to
integrate the responsibility for supervision of its public customer
options business into its overall supervisory and compliance program,
and to make certain related changes to the NOM Rules. The rule
proposal, which is effective upon filing with the Commission, shall
become operative 30 days after filing pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6) of
the Act. The text of the proposed rule is available on the Exchange's
Web site at http://nasdaqomx.cchwallstreet.com, at the Exchange's
principal office, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, Nasdaq 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. Nasdaq 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 the NOM Rules to integrate the
responsibility for supervision of a member's public customer options
business into its overall supervisory and compliance program. The
proposed rule change is substantively similar to recent amendments to
the rules of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (``FINRA''), which
were approved by the Commission.\4\ As part of these changes, the
Exchange proposes to eliminate the requirement that a firm must
designate a SROP and CROP to be responsible for the overall supervision
and compliance programs, respectively, for a member's public customer
options activities. Nasdaq believes that the supervisory and compliance
function of a member's public customer options activities would be
better integrated into the matrix of a firm's overall supervisory and
compliance functions rather than separately vested in a SROP and CROP.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Securities Exchange Act Release No. 57775 (May 5, 2008), 73
FR 26453 (May 9, 2008) (SR-FINRA-2007-035) (approval order)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange does not believe that eliminating the SROP and CROP
requirements would lead to a reduction in supervision, as firms have an
obligation to designate an appropriately registered principal(s) to
supervise their public customer options activities pursuant to Nasdaq
Rule 3010, which requires Nasdaq members to comply with NASD Rule 3010
\5\ as if such Rule were part of Nasdaq's Rules. In this regard, the
Exchange proposes to amend NOM Rules Chapter II, Section 2(g)(1) to
delete the reference to the SROP and CROP and to clarify that if a
person is engaged in the supervision of options and security futures
sales practices, including a person designated pursuant to NASD Rule
3010(a)(2),\6\ then such person must be registered as a Registered
Options and Security Futures Principal. The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change would provide firms greater flexibility to
incorporate supervision into existing, firm-wide supervisory
structures.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ NASD Rule 3010 sets forth member firms' responsibilities
with respect to supervision.
    \6\ NASD Rule 3010(a)(2) requires that members designate ``an
appropriately registered principal(s) with authority to carry out
the supervisory responsibilities of the member for each type of
business in which it engages for which registration as a broker/
dealer is required.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed rule change also makes two technical changes. First,
all references to ``Options Principal'' would be changed to
``Registered Options and Security Futures Principal'' to reflect the
correct title of such principals, consistent with the other NOM Rules.
Second, all references to ``put and call'' would be deleted before
options, and ``options'' will mean all types of options.
    In addition, the proposed rule change would amend NOM Rules Chapter
XI in several respects. First, Section 7, paragraph (f), which relates
to the opening of accounts, would be amended to delete the reference to
the SROP and CROP and require that a specific Registered Options and
Security Futures Principal(s) be designated to be responsible for
approving customer accounts that do not meet the specific criteria and
standards for writing uncovered short option transactions and for
maintaining written records of the reasons for every account so
approved. The proposed rule change would allow members the flexibility
to assign this responsibility, which currently rests with the SROP and/
or CROP, to a specific Registered Options and Security Futures
Principal.
    Second, references to the SROP and CROP would be deleted and a new
paragraph (a) would be inserted into Section 8, which relates to
supervision of accounts. The new paragraph (a) would make clear that a
member that conducts a public customer options business must ensure its
written supervisory system policies and procedures pursuant to NASD
Rules 3010, 3012, and 3013 adequately address its public customer
options business. Although the proposed rule change would eliminate
entirely the positions and titles of the SROP and CROP, a member would
still be required pursuant to NASD Rule 3010(a)(2) to designate ``an
appropriately registered principal(s) with authority to carry out the
supervisory responsibilities of the member for each type of business in
which it engages for which registration as a broker/dealer is
required,'' which would include designating an Options Principal to
supervise a member's public customer options activities.
    Third, Nasdaq proposes amending Section 10, which relates to
discretionary accounts, to eliminate references to the CROP and SROP,
and

require that a specific Registered Options and Security Futures
Principal(s) be designated to be responsible for the review of the
acceptance of discretionary accounts. Under the proposed rule change,
each firm would be required to have a Registered Options and Security
Futures Principal other than the Registered Options and Security
Futures Principal who accepted the account review the acceptance of
each discretionary account to determine that the Registered Options and
Security Futures Principal accepting the account had a reasonable basis
for believing that the customer was able to understand and bear the
risk of the strategies or transactions proposed. The firm must maintain
a record of the basis for such determination. In addition, the proposed
rule change would eliminate the requirement in paragraph (a)(ii) that
discretionary options orders be approved and initialed on the day of
entry by the branch office manager or other Options Principal, or
confirmed within a reasonable time by an Options Principal if the
branch office manager is not an Options Principal. Under the proposed
rule change, discretionary orders would be required to receive frequent
appropriate supervisory review by a Registered Options and Security
Futures Principal who is not exercising discretionary authority
(instead of a CROP) and be reviewed in accordance with a member's
written supervisory procedures. The proposed rule change would ensure
that supervisory responsibilities are assigned to specific Registered
Options and Security Futures Principal-qualified individuals, thereby
enhancing the quality of supervision.
    Proposed NOM Rules Chapter XI, Section 10(e) would allow a
participant to exercise time and price discretion on orders for the
purchase or sale of a definite number of options contracts in a
specified security. The Exchange proposes to limit the duration of this
discretionary authority to the day it is granted, absent written
authorization to the contrary. Additionally, the proposed rule would
require any exercise of time and price discretion to be reflected on
the customer order ticket. The proposed one-day limitation would not
apply to time and price discretion exercised for orders affected with
or for an institutional account (as defined in the NOM Rules) pursuant
to valid Good-Till Cancelled instructions issued on a ``not held''
basis.
    The Exchange believes that investors will receive greater
protection by clarifying the time such discretionary orders remain
pending.
    Nasdaq also proposes to add NOM Rules Chapter XI, Section 10(f),
which requires any participant that does not utilize computerized
surveillance tools for the frequent and appropriate review of
discretionary account activity to establish and implement procedures to
require Registered Options and Security Futures-qualified individuals
who have been designated to review discretionary accounts to approve
and initial each discretionary order on the day entered. The Exchange
believes that any member that does not use computerized tools for the
frequent and adequate surveillance of options discretionary account
activity should continue to be required to perform the daily manual
review of discretionary orders.
2. Statutory Basis
    Nasdaq believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with
the provisions of Section 6 of the Act,\7\ in general, and with Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,\8\ in particular, in that the proposal is designed
to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote
just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and
coordination with persons engaged in regulating, clearing, settling,
processing information with respect to, and facilitating transactions
in securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a
free and open market and a national market system, and, in general, to
protect investors and the public interest. The Exchange believes that
the supervisory and compliance function of a member's public customer
options activities would be better integrated into the matrix of a
firm's overall supervisory and compliance functions rather than
separately vested in a SROP and CROP.

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

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

    No written comments were solicited nor were any received with
respect to the proposed rule change.

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

    The Exchange has designated the proposed rule change as one that
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. Therefore, the
foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \9\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii)
requires a self-regulatory organization to provide the Commission
with written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change,
along with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change,
at least five business days prior to the date of filing of the
proposed rule change, or such shorter time as the Commission may
designate. The Exchange had satisfied the five business-day pre-
filing requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission may summarily abrogate such rule change if it
appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate
in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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 the following methods:

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP23-57-000]

Texas Eastern Transmission, LP; Notice of Schedule for the
Preparation of an Environmental Assessment for the Grand Chenier
Compressor Station Abandonment Project

    On February 10, 2023, Texas Eastern Transmission, LP (Texas
Eastern) filed an application in Docket No. CP23-57-000 requesting an
Authorization pursuant to section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act to
abandon certain natural gas facilities. The proposed project is known
as the Grand Chenier Compressor Station Abandonment Project (Project)
and would authorize Texas Eastern to abandon its existing Grand Chenier
Compressor Station. In 2019, the Commission issued orders approving
abandonment of certain segments of Texas Eastern's Cameron System under
Docket Nos. CP18-485-000, CP18-486-000, and CP18-505-000. According to
Texas Eastern, the abandonment of these Cameron System segments removed
the need for the Grand Chenier Compressor Station.
    On February 17, 2023, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission or FERC) issued its Notice of Application for the Project.
Among other things, that notice alerted agencies issuing federal
authorizations of the requirement to complete all necessary reviews and
to reach a final decision on a request for a federal authorization
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's
environmental document for the Project.
    This notice identifies Commission staff's intention to prepare an
environmental assessment (EA) for the Project and the planned schedule
for the completion of the environmental review.\1\

Schedule for Environmental Review

Issuance of EA--August 8, 2023
90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline \2\--November 6, 2023
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The Commission's deadline applies to the decisions of other
federal agencies, and state agencies acting under federally
delegated authority, that are responsible for federal
authorizations, permits, and other approvals necessary for proposed
projects under the Natural Gas Act. Per 18 CFR 157.22(a), the
Commission's deadline for other agency's decisions applies unless a
schedule is otherwise established by federal law.

    If a schedule change becomes necessary, additional notice will be
provided so that the relevant agencies are kept informed of the
Project's progress.

Project Description

    Texas Eastern proposes to abandon its existing 27,500 horsepower
Grand Chenier Compressor Station in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. Texas
Eastern would disconnect and remove aboveground structures and
associated appurtenances along with all piping and other buried
structures to a depth of two feet below grade. Texas Eastern's Line 41
and associated mainline valve would remain in-service.

Background

    On March 10, 2023, the Commission issued a Notice of Scoping Period
Requesting Comments on Environmental Issues for the Proposed Grand
Chenier Compressor Station Abandonment Project (Notice of Scoping). The
Notice of Scoping was sent to affected landowners (as defined by the
Commission's regulations); federal, state, and local government
agencies; elected officials; environmental and public interest groups;
Native American tribes; other interested parties; and local libraries
and newspapers. In response to the Notice of Scoping, the Commission to
date has received comments from RESTORE, and the Environmental
Protection Agency. The primary issues raised by the commenters are
post-construction use of the site. All substantive comments will be
addressed in the EA.

Additional Information

    In order to receive notification of the issuance of the EA and to
keep track of formal issuances and submittals in specific dockets, the
Commission offers a free service called eSubscription. This service
provides automatic notification of filings made to subscribed dockets,
document summaries, and direct links to the documents. Go to https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/overview to register for eSubscription.
    Additional information about the Project is available from the
Commission's Office of External Affairs at (866) 208-FERC or on the

procedure.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to establish Class E surface airspace at
Portland-Troutdale Airport, Troutdale, OR. Controlled airspace is
necessary to accommodate aircraft using NDB, GPS, SIAPs at Portland-
Troutdale Airport, and would enhance the safety and management of IFR
operations. This action would also update the geographic coordinates of
the Class D airspace area to be in concert with the FAA's National
Aeronautical Charting Office.
    Class D and Class E airspace designations are published in
paragraph 5000 and 6002, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9T, signed
August 27, 2009, and effective September 15, 2009, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and Class E
airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in this Order.
    The FAA has determined this proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
Therefore, this proposed regulation; (1) is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a
``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44
FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a
regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since
this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures
and air navigation, it is certified this proposed rule, when
promulgated, would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106, describes
the authority for the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's authority.
This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
subtitle VII, part A, subpart I, section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of the
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it would amend controlled airspace at Portland-Troutdale Airport,
Troutdale, OR.

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the Federal
Aviation Administration proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as follows:

renumbered rules that, among other things, address the proper treatment
of air pollutants under the State's prevention of significant
deterioration (PSD) program. In this rulemaking, we are taking final
action on all of the June 4, 2013 submittal, with the exception of one
small portion. This action is being taken under section 110 of the
Clean Air Act (CAA).

DATES: This final rule is effective March 2, 2015.

I. Background

    EPA is taking final action to approve (with one exception) the
revisions to Title 17, Chapter 8, subchapter 8 of the Administrative
Rules of Montana (ARM) submitted by the State on June 4, 2013, that
relate to the State's PSD program. The revisions to the State PSD SIP
were adopted by the Montana Department of

Environmental Quality (MDEQ) on September 27, 2012, and became
effective October 12, 2012.
    Montana's revisions addressed certain requirements in EPA's
November 29, 2005 ``Final Rule to Implement the 8-Hour Ozone National
Ambient Air Quality Standards--Phase 2,'' 70 FR 71612 (``Phase 2 Ozone
Implementation Rule''). EPA's November 29, 2005 rule required states to
revise their programs for major source permitting to address ozone
formation by properly regulating precursor pollutants. ``Precursor
pollutants'' are pollutants that combine to form another pollutant; in
particular, nitrogen oxides (NOX) react with volatile
organic compounds to form ozone. In the Phase 2 Ozone Implementation
Rule, EPA identified NOX as an ozone precursor pollutant in
attainment and unclassifiable areas. Accordingly, the Phase 2 Ozone
Implementation Rule amended the definitions in 40 CFR 51.166 of ``major
stationary source,'' ``major modification,'' ``significant,'' and
``regulated NSR pollutant'' to include NOX as an ozone
precursor; the rule also amended certain requirements regarding
monitoring of ozone to reflect the identification of NOX as
an ozone precursor.
    However, prior to Montana's June 4, 2013 submittal, the State had
not amended its PSD rules accordingly. As a result, in a July 22, 2011
final rule (Approval and Disapproval and Promulgation of State
Implementation Plan Revisions; Infrastructure Requirements for the 1997
8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards; Montana), EPA
partially disapproved a Montana SIP submission that (among other
things) addressed PSD requirements pursuant to CAA section
110(a)(2)(C), because Montana's PSD rules did not properly address
NOX as an ozone precursor pollutant as required by the Phase
2 Ozone Implementation Rule. 76 FR 43918; see also 76 FR 28934
(proposal). Under CAA section 110(c)(1)(B), this disapproval started a
two-year Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) clock as to this deficiency,
which required EPA to promulgate a FIP within two years of the
disapproval unless the State submitted and we approved a plan revision
correcting the deficiency. As we are now taking final action to approve
Montana's June 4, 2013, submittal, which addresses the requirements of
the Phase 2 Ozone Implementation Rule, this action fixes the deficiency
identified in our prior disapproval and removes our FIP obligations.

II. What are the changes that EPA is taking final action to approve?

    With respect to Montana's June 4, 2013 submittal, EPA is taking
final action to approve revisions to the Montana SIP that bring the
State PSD program into conformance with the requirements of the Phase 2
Ozone Implementation Rule.
    In our September 29, 2014 proposed action (79 FR 58311), we
proposed to approve the following revisions to the Administrative Rules
of Montana (ARM): 17.8.801(20)(a) (major modification); 17.8.801(22)(b)
(major stationary source); 17.8.801(25) (nitrogen oxides or NOX);
17.8.801(27)(a) (significant); and 17.8.818(7)(a)(6) (Review of Major
Source and Major Modifications--Source Applicability and Exemptions).
The submittal also corrected a small error in an August 15, 2012
Montana submittal regarding the treatment of fine particulate matter
(PM2.5). We have not acted on the remaining portions of the
August 15, 2012 submittal; EPA will act on the correction in the June
4, 2013 submittal in tandem with our future action on the rest of the
August 15, 2012 submittal.
    We provided a detailed explanation of the basis of approval in our
proposed rulemaking (see 79 FR 58311). We invited comment on all
aspects of our proposal and provided a 30-day comment period. The
comment period ended on October 29, 2014.

III. Response to Comments

    We received one comment during the public comment period. This one
comment was in support of our proposed rule, and we acknowledge receipt
of that comment.

IV. What action is EPA taking today?

    As discussed in our proposed rulemaking, the requirements included
in Montana's PSD program, as specified in ARM 17.8.801 and ARM
17.8.818, are substantially the same as the federal provisions for PSD
as set forth at 40 CFR 51.166. Thus, for the reasons discussed in our
proposal notice and summarized above, EPA is taking final action to
approve the revisions to the ARM 17.8.801 and 17.8.818 as outlined in
Section II of this rulemaking (with the small exception noted there)
and as submitted to EPA by the State of Montana on June 4, 2013.

V. Statutory and Executive Orders Review

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable federal regulations 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely approves state law as meeting federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by state law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     is certified as not having a significant economic impact
in a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the

agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes
a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the
Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report
containing this action and other required information to the U.S.
Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General
of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal
Register. A major rule cannot take effect until 60 days after it is
published in the Federal Register. This action is not a ``major rule''
as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by March 30, 2015. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of
judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for
judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness
of such rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See CAA section 307(b)(2).)
