SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
approve revisions to the Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District
(MDAQMD), Northern Sierra Air Quality Management District (NSAQMD), and
San Diego County Air Pollution Control District (SDCAPCD) portions of
the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern
aerospace assembly, rework, and component manufacturing operations;
emissions statements and recordkeeping; and definitions, respectively.
We are proposing to approve local rules to regulate these emission
sources under the Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act).

DATES: Any comments on this proposal must arrive by July 21, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R09-
OAR-EPA-R09-OAR-2016-0647 at http://www.regulations.gov, or via email
to Andrew Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
For comments submitted at Regulations.gov, follow the online
instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot
be removed or edited from Regulations.gov. For either manner of
submission, the EPA may publish any comment received to its public
docket. Do not submit electronically any information you consider to be
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose
disclosure is restricted by statute. Multimedia submissions (audio,
video, etc.) must be accompanied by a written comment. The written
comment is considered the official comment and should include
discussion of all points you wish to make. The EPA will generally not
consider comments or comment contents located outside of the primary
submission (i.e. on the web, cloud, or other file sharing system). For
additional submission methods, please contact the person identified in
the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. For the full EPA public
comment policy, information about CBI or multimedia submissions, and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document, ``we,'' ``us'' and
``our'' refer to the EPA. This proposal addresses the following local
rules MDAQMD Rule 1118, NSAQMD Rule 513, and SDCAPCD Rule 2. In the
Rules and Regulations section of this Federal Register, we are
approving these local rules in a direct final action without prior
proposal because we believe these SIP revisions are not controversial.
If we receive adverse comments, however, we will publish a timely
withdrawal of the direct final rule and address the comments in
subsequent action based on this proposed rule. Please note that if we
receive an adverse comment on a particular rule, we may adopt as final
the rules that are not the subject of an adverse comment.
    We do not plan to open a second comment period, so anyone
interested in commenting should do so at this time. If we do not
receive adverse comments, no further activity is planned. For further
information, please see the direct final action.

    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on May 12, 2014, Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated (the

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

    The Exchange proposes to adopt Rule 24.22 (Allocation of Trading
Spaces) related to the allocation of newly-created trading spaces on
the Exchange floor to Trading Permit Holders (``TPHs''). The text of
the proposed rule change is provided below.

(additions are italicized; deletions are [bracketed])

Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated Rules

* * * * *

Rule 24.21. Index Crowd Space Dispute Resolution Procedures

    (a)--(m) No Change.
    [ . . . Interpretations and Policies:
    .01 In connection with an expansion of the back area of the SPX
trading crowd, CBOE may allocate the available trading spaces using a
random lottery process or an order in time process. Under either of the
processes that it chooses to utilize, CBOE would announce a deadline by
which an approved individual CBOE Trading Permit Holder who would like
to use the trading space can submit an indication of interest for one
of the available trading spaces in the back area of the SPX trading
crowd. Only those individuals who are approved Trading Permit Holders
of CBOE would be eligible to submit an indication of interest, and the
individual who would be using the trading space must be an effective
Trading Permit Holder under CBOE Rule 3.10 (i.e., must have a Trading
Permit) at the time of the random lottery process or the order in time
process. After the deadline for indications of interest has passed, the
available trading spaces in the back area of the SPX trading crowd
would be allocated through a random lottery process or an order in time
process.]
* * * * *

Rule 24.22. Allocation of Trading Spaces

    (a) In connection with an expansion or other physical modification
of an area of a trading crowd or creation of a new trading crowd, CBOE
may allocate the available trading spaces using a random lottery
process or an order in time process. Under either of the processes that
it chooses to utilize, CBOE would announce a deadline by which an
approved individual CBOE Trading Permit Holder who would like to use
the trading space can submit an indication of interest for one of the
available trading spaces. Only those individuals who are approved
Trading Permit Holders of CBOE would be eligible to submit an
indication of interest, and the individual who would be using the
trading space must be an effective Trading Permit Holder under CBOE
Rule 3.10 (i.e., must have a Trading Permit) at the time of the random
lottery process or the order in time process. After the deadline for
indications of interest has passed, the available trading spaces would
be allocated through a random lottery process or an order in time
process.
    (b) CBOE may, in its discretion, determine the specific dimensions
and parameters of each trading space in a trading crowd, provided that
each Trading Permit Holder performing a specific trading function
(i.e., Designated Primary Market-Maker (``DPM''), Lead Market-Maker
(``LMM''), Market-Maker, or Floor Broker) in a trading crowd be
allocated the same amount of space as each other Trading Permit Holder
performing the same respective trading function in that trading crowd.
Any determinations made by the Exchange pursuant to this Rule as to the
specific dimensions and parameters of the trading spaces within a
particular trading crowd shall be communicated in a Regulatory
Circular.
* * * * *
    The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the
Exchange's Web site (http://www.cboe.com/AboutCBOE/CBOELegalRegulatoryHome.aspx), at the Exchange's Office of the
Secretary, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

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

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

1. Purpose
    The purpose of the proposed rule change is to allow the Exchange to
utilize its current process and procedures for allocating new trading
spaces in the back area of the SPX trading crowd to allocate new
trading spaces that may be created in other areas of the SPX trading
crowd and other trading crowds on the floor of the Exchange. In
addition, the Exchange proposes to adopt a rule, which will allow the
Exchange to determine the dimensions and parameters of each trading
space in a particular trading crowd.

Newly-Created Trading Spaces

    Historically, an order in time process has generally been applied
to determine which individuals can use new trading spaces in a crowd
located on the CBOE trading floor. In 2008, however, in connection with
an expansion of the back area of the SPX trading crowd, the Exchange
adopted Interpretation and Policy .01 to Rule 24.21, which provided
that the Exchange may allocate newly-created trading spaces in the back
area of the SPX trading crowd by either a random lottery process or an
order in time process.\3\ Thus, Interpretation and Policy .01 to Rule
24.21 was adopted in response to many new trading spaces in the back
area of the SPX trading crowd becoming available due to expansion of
the SPX trading crowd area. At the time, the Exchange believed that
Interpretation and Policy .01 to Rule 24.21 would provide for the
issuance of new trading spaces in an objective manner and consequently
would provide for fair access to the Exchange.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Release No. 34-58978; File No. SR-CBOE-2008-116; 73 FR
229, 72089-91 (Nov. 26, 2008).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange would like the ability to utilize the process and
procedures set forth in Interpretation and Policy .01 to Rule 24.21 to
allocate other trading spaces that may be created on the Exchange floor
due to expansion or other physical modifications to areas on the
trading floor besides the ``back area of the SPX trading crowd.'' From
time to time, the Exchange may expand, renovate, or make physical
changes to trading crowd areas on the Exchange floor besides the area
in the back of the SPX trading crowd. Although the Exchange's current
rules provide a process and procedures for allocating newly-created
trading spaces on the floor of the Exchange, they apply only

to trading spaces located in the ``back area of the SPX trading
crowd.'' The Exchange would like the ability to allocate such other
newly-created trading spaces in other areas of the Exchange floor using
the process set forth in Interpretation and Policy .01 to Rule 24.21
when the Exchange deems that process would be an effective and orderly
way of allocating the available trading spaces.
    Given the Exchange's desire to extend the procedures set forth in
Interpretation and Policy .01 to Rule 24.21 beyond its current scope to
apply to trading crowd areas across the floor of the Exchange, the
Exchange believes that the process and procedures should be moved to
another rule as opposed to an interpretation and policy under Rule
24.21. The Exchange adopted Interpretation and Policy .01 to Rule 24.21
in connection with expansion of the back area of the SPX trading area.
Thus, the Exchange placed the trading space allocation procedure under
Rule 24.21 (Index Crowd Space Dispute Resolution Procedures). The
Exchange believes that the broader policy should be placed under a
separate rule and thus, proposes to adopt new Rule 24.22 (Allocation of
Trading Spaces) for this procedure.

Trading Space Dimensions

    The Exchange also proposes to adopt Rule 24.22(b), which will allow
the Exchange to determine the specific dimensions and parameters of
each ``trading space'' in a particular trading crowd when the Exchange
deems necessary. Certain trading crowds on the floor of the Exchange
continue to be densely populated by many TPHs. The proposed rule
codifies the Exchange's policies with respect to TPHs' use of the
Exchange's facilities. Specifically, the rule sets forth the process
that the Exchange may use to allocate trading spaces to TPHs in a fair,
equal and non-discriminatory manner. The Exchange believes that Rule
24.22(b) will contribute to the continued maintenance of fair and
orderly markets.
    The proposed rule provides that the Exchange may, in its
discretion, determine the dimensions and parameters of each trading
space in a trading crowd, provided that each TPH performing a specific
trading function (i.e., Designated Primary Market-Maker (``DPM''), Lead
Market-Maker (``LMM''), Market-Maker, or Floor Broker) in a trading
crowd be allocated the same amount of space as each other Trading
Permit Holder performing the same respective trading function in that
trading crowd. The proposed rule allows the Exchange to apportion
different amounts of space to TPHs in a trading crowd based on their
differing functions because TPHs within a trading crowd may have
different technological necessities that may require more or less
space. For example, a Floor Broker may have a need for a PAR
workstation or order handling device. The proposed rule allows the
Exchange the flexibility to apportion trading space based on the
functions of the various TPHs in a trading crowd provided that all TPHs
performing the same trading function in the crowd are allocated an
equal amount of space in the particular trading crowd. Because not all
trading crowds are densely populated, such rules are not necessary in
all trading crowds. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes flexibility in
the rule so that the Exchange can employ these rules when and where it
determines they are needed.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to the
Exchange and, in particular, the requirements of Section 6(b).\4\
Specifically, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is
consistent with the Section 6(b) (5)\5\ requirements that the rules of
an exchange be designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster
cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in regulating,
clearing, settling, processing information with respect to, and
facilitating transactions in securities, to remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market
system, and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest.
Additionally, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is
consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) \6\ requirement that the rules of
an exchange not be designed to permit unfair discrimination between
customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.

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

    The Exchange believes that these procedures will contribute to the
maintenance of fair and orderly markets by codifying a fair, objective,
and nondiscriminatory procedure for allocating trading spaces that may
be created in densely populated trading crowds on the floor of the
Exchange. The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is
nondiscriminatory because any newly-created trading spaces on the floor
of the Exchange that would be allocated under this process would be
made equally available to all TPHs who wish to participate in the
allocation process. In addition, the Exchange believes that adopting
rules to ensure that all TPHs within densely populated trading crowds
are afforded specific, defined, and equal trading spaces in terms of
dimensions and parameters will protect TPHs against unfair
discrimination on the trading floor of the Exchange.

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. Rather, the proposed rule
will contribute to more robust and competitive markets by providing
TPHs with trading spaces that maximize sightlines between potential
counterparties and allow the Exchange to utilize its resources in an
efficient manner to promote trading. The rule will also encourage
greater participation and competition in the markets by allowing the
Exchange to allocate newly-created trading spaces on the Exchange floor
in an orderly fashion to TPHs who want to occupy those spaces.
Furthermore, the proposed rule will remove burdens on competition by
ensuring that all TPHs performing the same trading functions in densely
populated trading crowds are afforded trading spaces of equal size and
dimensions.

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

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

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

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not:
    A. Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest;
    B. impose any significant burden on competition; and
    C. become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was
filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has
become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act \7\ and
Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \8\ thereunder.

    \8\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
requires the Exchange to give the Commission written notice of the
Exchange's intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a
brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at least
five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission.

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

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission will institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule should be approved or disapproved.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of
Proposed Rule Change Relating to the Waiver of Certain TRACE Late Trade
Reporting Fees Due to Hurricane Sandy

November 30, 2012.
    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 November 26, 2012, the Financial Industry Regulatory

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

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

    FINRA is proposing to waive certain Trade Reporting and Compliance
Engine (``TRACE'') late trade reporting fees specified in FINRA Rule
7730(b)(3) due to disruptions in normal business operations as a result
of Hurricane Sandy.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on FINRA's Web
site at http://www.finra.org, at the principal office of FINRA 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, FINRA 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. FINRA 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
    Transactions in TRACE-Eligible Securities, as defined in FINRA Rule
6710(a), are required to be reported to FINRA within the time frames
specified in FINRA Rule 6730(a). FINRA Rule 7730(b) sets forth the
charges to be assessed against each member responsible for reporting
such transactions. FINRA Rule 7730(b)(3) provides that members shall be
charged a $3.00 per transaction late fee for those transactions that
are not timely reported ``as/of'' as required by the FINRA Rule 6700
Series. Due to significant disruptions in normal business operations as
a result of Hurricane Sandy or Superstorm Sandy (``Sandy'') that made
landfall along the mid-Atlantic Coast on October 29, 2012, FINRA
proposes to waive such TRACE late trade reporting fees if a firm in an
area affected by Sandy \5\ reported certain

transactions in TRACE-Eligible Securities late. The late trade
reporting fee would be waived for transactions that were executed on
Monday, October 29, 2012 or Tuesday, October 30, 2012, by firms located
in the affected areas (or that have their fixed income operations in
the affected areas), provided that the affected firms reported the
transactions no later than Wednesday, October 31, 2012 by the TRACE
system closing.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ An affected area means any area, such as a state or a
county, that the President declared a major disaster or for which
the President signed a federal emergency declaration as a result of
Sandy (e.g., the state, or certain counties, of Connecticut, New
York, New Jersey, Delaware, District of Columbia, Maryland,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia
and West Virginia) (the ``affected areas'').
    \6\ FINRA has identified a number of transactions that qualify
for the waiver of the late trade reporting fee of $3.00, and
proposes to credit those firms with the identified relevant
transactions on their TRACE invoices for November 2012 (the
``November Invoice''). However, upon receipt of the November
Invoice, if a firm has not received credit for a transaction(s) it
believes qualifies for the fee waiver because its fixed income
operations are located in one of the affected areas, the firm should
contact TRACE Data Services by emailing<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or calling<PHONE_NUMBER>, and provide a list of such transactions
and the reason why the firm believes such transactions qualify for
the waiver.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FINRA has filed the proposed rule change for immediate
effectiveness. The effective date and the implementation date will be
the date of filing.
2. Statutory Basis
    FINRA believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 15A(b)(5) of the Act,\7\ which requires, among
other things, that FINRA rules provide for the equitable allocation of
reasonable dues, fees and other charges among members and issuers and
other persons using any facility or system that FINRA operates or
controls. FINRA believes that the proposed rule change to waive the
late trade reporting fee for those firms that were adversely affected
by Sandy is appropriate considering the lack of communications,
transportation, electricity, facilities and available staff as a result
of Sandy that hampered the ability of members in the affected areas (or
with fixed income operations in the affected area) to meet their TRACE
reporting deadlines. FINRA believes that this limited waiver results in
reasonable fees and financial benefits from late trade reporting fee
waivers that are equitably allocated. The financial benefit of the late
trade reporting fee waiver would be available to all firms located in
the affected areas (or that have their fixed income operations in the
affected areas). In addition, the financial benefit of the late trade
reporting fee waiver would be available for a very limited period
(i.e., only for transactions that were executed on Monday, October 29,
2012 or Tuesday, October 30, 2012 provided that such transactions were
reported no later than Wednesday, October 31, 2012, by the TRACE system
closing), such that members not eligible for the late trade reporting
fee waiver are not unfairly or inequitably affected. The proposed rule
change is reasonable because the waiver of a standard FINRA late trade
reporting fee, and the financial benefit from such waiver is of limited
amount, duration and application as noted above. Finally, the proposed
late trade reporting fee waiver does not unfairly discriminate between
or among members in that the waiver would be available to any such
member in the affected areas that executed transactions on the relevant
dates, provided that the firm reported the transaction(s) no later than
Wednesday, October 31, 2012 by the TRACE system closing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    FINRA 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. FINRA believes that the
proposed rule change to waive the late trade reporting fee for those
firms that were adversely affected by Sandy is appropriate considering
the lack of communications, transportation, electricity, facilities and
available staff as a result of Sandy that hampered the ability of
members in the affected areas (or with fixed income operations in the
affected area) to meet their TRACE reporting deadlines. FINRA believes
that the limited late trade reporting fee waiver would not place an
unreasonable fee burden on members, nor confer an uncompetitive benefit
to members that may have their late trade reporting fees waived, in
that such waiver would be available for a very limited period (only for
trades executed on Monday, October 29, 2012 or Tuesday, October 30,
2012 provided that such transactions were reported no later than
Wednesday, October 31, 2012, by the TRACE system closing), and the
financial impact of such a waiver would be de minimis.

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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

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

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \8\ and paragraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-4
thereunder.\9\ At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed
rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule should be approved or disapproved.

Federal Aviation Administration

Noise Exposure Map; San Antonio International Airport; San
Antonio, TX

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces its
determination that the noise exposure maps submitted by the city of San
Antonio, Texas for San Antonio International Airport under the
provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47501 et seq. (Aviation Safety and Noise
Abatement Act) and 14 CFR part 150 are in compliance with applicable
requirements.

DATES: Effective Date: The effective date of the FAA's determination on
the noise exposure maps is May 28, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: DOT/FAA Southwest Region, Mr. Paul
Blackford, 652b, 2601 Meacham Blvd., Fort Worth, Texas 76137, (817)
222-5607.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA finds
that the noise exposure maps submitted for San Antonio International
Airport are in compliance with applicable requirements of Part 150,
effective May 28, 2009. Under 49 U.S.C. section 47503 of the Aviation
Safety and Noise Abatement Act (hereinafter referred to as ``the
Act''), an airport operator may submit to the FAA noise exposure maps
which meet applicable regulations and which depict noncompatible land
uses as of the date of submission of such maps, a description of
projected aircraft operations, and the ways in which such operations
will affect such maps. The Act requires such maps to be developed in
consultation with interested and affected parties in the local
community, government agencies, and persons using the airport. An
airport operator who has submitted noise exposure maps that are found
by FAA to be in compliance with the requirements of Federal Aviation
Regulations (FAR) Part 150, promulgated pursuant to the Act, may submit
a noise compatibility program for FAA approval which sets forth the
measures the operator has taken or proposes to take to reduce existing
non-compatible uses and prevent the introduction of additional non-
compatible uses.
    The FAA has completed its review of the noise exposure maps and
accompanying documentation submitted by the city of San Antonio, Texas.
The documentation that constitutes the ``noise exposure maps'' as
defined in section 150.7 of Part 150 includes: Pages 3-1 through 3-14,
pages 4-1 through 4-7, Figure 5-1, and Figure 5-2. The FAA has
determined that these noise exposure maps and accompanying
documentation are in compliance with applicable requirements. This
determination is effective on May 28, 2009.
    FAA's determination on an airport operator's noise exposure maps is
limited to a finding that the maps were developed in accordance with
the procedures contained in appendix A of FAR Part 150. Such
determination does not constitute approval of the applicant's data,
information or plans, or a commitment to approve a noise compatibility
program or to fund the implementation of that program. If questions
arise concerning the precise relationship of specific properties to
noise exposure contours depicted on a noise exposure map submitted
under section 47503 of the Act, it should be noted that the FAA is not
involved in any way in determining the relative locations of specific
properties with regard to the depicted noise contours, or in
interpreting the noise exposure maps to resolve questions concerning,
for example, which properties should be covered by the provisions of
section 47506 of the Act. These functions are inseparable from the
ultimate land use control and planning responsibilities of local
government. These local responsibilities are not changed in any way
under Part 150 or through FAA's review of noise exposure maps.
Therefore, the responsibility for the detailed overlaying of noise
exposure contours onto the map depicting properties on the surface
rests exclusively with the airport operator that submitted those maps,
or with those public agencies and planning agencies with which
consultation is required under section 47503 of the Act. The FAA has
relied on the certification by the airport operator, under section
150.21 of FAR Part 150, that the statutorily required consultation has
been accomplished.
    Copies of the full noise exposure map documentation and of the
FAA's evaluation of the maps are available for examination at the
following locations: (1) Federal Aviation Administration, 2601 Meacham
Boulevard, Fort Worth, Texas 76137; (2) Ms. Sharon A. Robles, Senior
Management Analyst, San Antonio International Airport, 9700 Airport
Blvd., San Antonio, TX 78216. Questions may be directed to the
individual named above under the heading FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

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

II. Description of the Proposal

    SPRs are reports produced by DTC that provide information on the
holdings on a specified day of an issuer's security in DTC participant
accounts. The SPR service enables an issuer, trustee, or authorized
third party to request on a subscription basis a report that reflects
each DTC participant's closing position recorded by DTC for a specific
issue. Currently, DTC offers subscriptions on a weekly, monthly,
dividend record date, and special request (i.e., ``as needed'')
basis.\5\ With respect to special request SPRs, the entities requesting
these reports tend to be corporate issuers seeking holder information
with respect to their equity securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 52393 (Sept. 8,
2005), 70 FR 54598 (Sept. 15, 2005) [File No. SR-DTC-2005-12].
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Recently, some authorized users of the SPR service had been
ordering the special request SPR on a daily basis in order to satisfy
certain tax reporting requirements in non-U.S. markets. DTC's fees for
special request SPRs are currently $120 per CUSIP. Because of the
expense associated with ordering SPRs on a daily basis, the non-U.S.
issuer/trustee community requested that DTC create a daily report
subscription category for SPRs. DTC reviewed this request and
determined that it would be feasible for it to offer SPR subscriptions
on a daily basis.
    Pursuant to this proposed rule change, DTC is updating its Fee
Schedule to reflect the new subscription type. Specifically, DTC will
charge $9,450 per year for the first recipient of the Daily SPR for a
security issue and $6,785 for each additional recipient of the Daily
SPR for that security. In addition, DTC will charge $2,785 per year for
each additional CUSIP in the same family (i.e., securities whose CUSIP
numbers have the same first six characters) of securities, one of which
is the subject of an existing Daily Report annual subscription. A one
year minimum Daily Report subscription is required to qualify for this
new subscription category.
    In addition, DTC will offer a new ``Commercial Paper Family
Report'' that will indicate DTC's participants' closing positions as of
a specific date in issues of commercial paper . The fee for this report
will be $9,450 per year for the first CUSIP and $22 per report for each
additional CUSIP in the same family (i.e., securities whose CUSIP
numbers have the same first six characters) of securities, one of which
is the subject of an existing Daily Report annual subscription.
    DTC is also updating its SPR Fee Schedule with certain technical
changes that are detailed in Exhibit 5 to DTC's filing and that can be
viewed online at http://www.dtcc.com/legal/rule_filings/dtc/2011.php.

III. Discussion

    The Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to DTC. In particular, based on DTC's
representation that the proposed fees are designed to recover the
reasonable costs of providing the securities position listing, the
Commission believes the proposal is consistent with DTC's obligations
under

Rule 17Ad-8,\6\ which requires DTC upon request to promptly furnish a
securities position listing to each issuer whose securities are held in
the name of DTC or its nominee and which permits DTC to charge issuers
requesting securities position listings a fee designed to recover the
reasonable costs of providing the securities position listing to the
issuer. By providing the new Daily Report and Commercial Paper Family
Report subscription services, DTC is providing the issuer community
with various ways to obtain needed shareholder information from DTC.

IV. Conclusion

    On the basis of the foregoing, the Commission finds that the
proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the Act, in
particular Section 17A of the Act,\7\ and the rules and regulations
thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\8\ that the proposed rule change (File No. SR-DTC-2011-07) be and
hereby is approved.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
    \9\ In approving the proposed rule change, the Commission
considered the proposal's impact on efficiency, competition and
capital formation. 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).

[EPA-R04-RCRA-2022-0395; FRL-9794-01-R4]

Tennessee: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste
Management Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
authorize changes to Tennessee's hazardous waste program under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). These changes were
outlined in an application to the EPA and correspond to certain Federal
rules promulgated between January 1, 1983 and June 30, 2021. The EPA
reviewed Tennessee's application and has determined that these changes
satisfy all requirements needed to qualify for final authorization.
Therefore, in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal
Register, we are authorizing Tennessee for these changes as a direct
final rule without a prior proposed rule. If we receive no adverse
comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before August 12, 2022.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R04-
RCRA-2022-0395, at https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online
instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot
be edited or removed from www.regulations.gov. The EPA may publish any
comment received to its public docket. Do not submit electronically any
information you consider to be Confidential Business Information (CBI)
or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute.
Multimedia submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be accompanied by a
written comment. The written comment is considered the official comment
and should include discussion of all points you wish to make. The EPA
will generally not consider comments or comment contents located
outside of the primary submission (i.e., on the web, cloud, or other
file sharing system). For additional submission methods, the full EPA
public comment policy, information about CBI or multimedia submissions,

8515; fax number:<PHONE_NUMBER>; email address:
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document proposes to take action on
Tennessee's changes to its hazardous waste management program under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended. We have
published a direct final rule authorizing these changes in the ``Rules
and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register because we view this
as a noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse comment. We have
explained our reasons for this action in the preamble to the direct
final rule.
    If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action
on this proposed rule. If we receive an adverse comment, we will
withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take effect. We would
then address all public comments in a subsequent final rule and base
any further decision on the authorization of the State program changes
after considering all comments received during the comment period.
    We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this
action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time.
For further information, please see the information provided in the
ADDRESSES section of this document.

SUMMARY: This is a notice of the Presidential declaration of a major

2005, and related determinations.

EFFECTIVE DATE: September 24, 2005.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Magda Ruiz, Recovery Division, Federal

the authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121-5206 (the Stafford Act), as follows:

    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State
of Louisiana, resulting from Hurricane Rita beginning on September
23, 2005, and continuing, is of sufficient severity and magnitude to
warrant a major disaster declaration under the Robert T. Stafford
Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121-5206
(the Stafford Act). Therefore, I declare that such a major disaster
exists in the State of Louisiana.
    In order to provide Federal assistance, you are hereby
authorized to allocate from funds available for these purposes such
amounts as you find necessary for Federal disaster assistance and
administrative expenses.
    You are authorized to provide Individual Assistance and
assistance for debris removal and emergency protective measures
(Categories A and B) under the Public Assistance program in the
designated areas, Hazard Mitigation throughout the State, and any
other forms of assistance under the Stafford Act you may deem
appropriate subject to completion of Preliminary Damage Assessments
(PDAs), unless you determine the incident is of such unusual
severity and magnitude that PDAs are not required to determine the
need for supplemental Federal assistance pursuant to 44 CFR
206.33(d). Direct Federal assistance is authorized.
    Consistent with the requirement that Federal assistance be
supplemental, any Federal funds provided under the Stafford Act for
Public Assistance, Hazard Mitigation, and the Other Needs Assistance
under the Stafford Act will be limited to 75 percent of the total
eligible costs. For a 34-day period, you are authorized to fund
assistance for debris removal and emergency protective measures,
including direct Federal assistance, at 100 percent of the total
eligible costs.
    Further, you are authorized to make changes to this declaration
to the extent allowable under the Stafford Act.

    The time period prescribed for the implementation of section
310(a), Priority to Certain Applications for Public Facility and Public
Housing Assistance, 42 U.S.C. 5153, shall be for a period not to exceed
six months after the date of this declaration.
    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice
that pursuant to the authority vested in the Acting Under Secretary for
Emergency Preparedness and Response, Department of Homeland Security,
under Executive Order 12148, as amended, Vice Admiral Thad Allen, of
the United States Coast Guard is appointed to act as the Federal
Coordinating Officer for this declared disaster.
    I do hereby determine the following areas of the State of Louisiana
to have been affected adversely by this declared major disaster:

    The parishes of Cameron, Calcasieu, Beauregard, Vermilion, and
Jefferson Davis for Individual Assistance.
    All parishes in the State of Louisiana for Public Assistance
Categories A and B (debris removal and emergency protective
measures), including direct Federal assistance, at 75 percent
Federal funding of total eligible costs. For a 34-day period,
assistance for debris removal and emergency protective measures,
including direct Federal assistance, will be provided at 100 percent
of the total eligible costs.
    All parishes within the State of Louisiana are eligible to apply
for assistance under the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program.
