SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-523, OMB Control No. 3235-0585]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC
20549-2736.

Extension: Rule 206(4)-7.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (``OMB'') a request for extension of the
previously approved collection of information discussed below.
    The title for the collection of information is ``Investment
Advisers Act rule 206(4)-7 (17 CFR 275.206(4)-7), Compliance procedures
and practices.'' Rule 206(4)-7 requires each investment adviser
registered with the Commission to (i) adopt and implement internal
compliance policies and procedures, (ii) review those policies and
procedures annually, (iii) designate a chief compliance officer, and
(iv) maintain certain compliance records. Rule 206(4)-7 is designed to
protect investors by fostering better compliance with the securities
laws. The collection of information under rule 206(4)-7 is necessary to
assure that investment advisers maintain comprehensive internal
programs that promote the advisers' compliance with the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940. The information collection in the rule also
assists the Commission's examination staff in assessing the adequacy
advisers' compliance programs. This collection of information is found
at 17 CFR 275.206(4)-7 and is mandatory.
    The information documented pursuant to rule 206(4)-7 is reviewed by
the Commission's examination staff; it will be accorded the same level
of confidentiality accorded to other responses provided to the
Commission in the context of its examination and

oversight program. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person
is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid control number.
    The respondents to this information collection are investment
advisers registered with the Commission. Our latest data indicate that
there were 12,026 advisers registered with the Commission as of
November 1, 2015. The Commission has estimated that compliance with
rule 206(4)-7 imposes an annual burden of approximately 87 hours per
respondent. Based on this figure, the Commission estimates a total
annual burden of 1,046,262 hours for this collection of information.
    The public may view the background documentation for this
information collection at the following Web site, www.reginfo.gov.
Comments should be directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and
Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office
Building, Washington, DC 20503, or by sending an email to:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA may grant an exemption
from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations for a 2-year period
if it finds ``such exemption would likely achieve a level of safety
that is equivalent to or greater than the level that would be achieved
absent such exemption.'' The statute also allows the Agency to renew
exemptions at the end of the 2-year period. The 20 individuals listed
in this notice have recently requested such an exemption from the
diabetes prohibition in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(3), which applies to drivers
of CMVs in interstate commerce. Accordingly, the Agency will evaluate
the qualifications of each applicant to determine whether granting the
exemption will achieve the required level of safety mandated by the
statutes.

Request for Comments

    In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA requests
public comment from all interested persons on the exemption petitions
described in this notice. We will consider all comments received before
the close of business on the closing date indicated in the date section
of the notice.
    FMCSA notes that section 4129 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible
and Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users requires
the Secretary to revise its diabetes exemption program established on
September 3, 2003 (68 FR 52441).\1\ The revision must provide for
individual assessment of drivers with diabetes mellitus, and be
consistent with the criteria described in section 4018 of the
Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (49 U.S.C. 31305).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Section 4129(a) refers to the 2003 notice as a ``final
rule.'' However, the 2003 notice did not issue a ``final rule'' but
did establish the procedures and standards for issuing exemptions
for drivers with ITDM.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 4129 requires: (1) Elimination of the requirement for 3
years of experience operating CMVs while being treated with insulin;
and (2) establishment of a specified minimum period of insulin use to
demonstrate stable control of diabetes before being allowed to operate
a CMV.
    In response to section 4129, FMCSA made immediate revisions to the
diabetes exemption program established by the September 3, 2003 notice.
FMCSA discontinued use of the 3-year driving experience and fulfilled
the requirements of section 4129 while continuing to ensure that
operation of CMVs by drivers with ITDM will achieve the requisite level
of safety

required of all exemptions granted under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e).
    Section 4129(d) also directed FMCSA to ensure that drivers of CMVs
with ITDM are not held to a higher standard than other drivers, with
the exception of limited operating, monitoring and medical requirements
that are deemed medically necessary.
    The FMCSA concluded that all of the operating, monitoring and
medical requirements set out in the September 3, 2003 notice, except as
modified, were in compliance with section 4129(d). Therefore, all of
the requirements set out in the September 3, 2003 notice, except as
modified by the notice in the Federal Register on November 8, 2005 (70
FR 67777), remain in effect.

    Issued on: November 9, 2011.

Associate Administrator for Policy.

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

General Comment:Hello, I am a former smoker of 16 years.  I always enjoyed smoking as a way to pass time and relax.  After having gone to the hospital with a collapsed lung I quit smoking for obvious reasons.  I have now found vapor to be as good for me as smoking without the side effects of smoking.  I ask that you guys use actual research and not just what you think it is for your basis of regulation.  I would like to continue vaping but if you guys make it regulated like smoking this will not be possible for me as I dont even use nicotine in  my juice.  A 75 day comment period is insufficient time for the vaping industry and the wider vaping community to comment on the proposed deeming regulations. I would respectfully request that the period for comment be extended to 180 days.

Aerial Lifts Standard; Extension of the Office of Management and
Budget's (OMB) Approval of Information Collection (Paperwork)
Requirements

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

ACTION: Request for public comments.

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

SUMMARY: OSHA solicits public comments concerning its proposal to
extend OMB approval of the information collection requirement contained
in the Aerial Lifts Standard. The only information collection
requirement in the Aerial Lifts Standard is a certification provision,
paragraph (a)(2). This provision requires an employer who modifies an
aerial lift for a use not intended by the lift manufacturer (``field
modified aerial lift'') to obtain from that manufacturer, or an
equivalent entity (such as a nationally-recognized laboratory), a
written certificate stating that: The modification conforms to the
applicable provisions of ANSI A92.2-1969 and OSHA's Aerial Lifts
Standard; and the modified aerial lift is at least as safe as it was
before modification.
    Employers who modify an aerial lift for uses other than those
provided by the manufacturer must obtain a certificate from the
manufacturer or equivalent entity certifying that the modification is
in conformance with applicable American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) standards and OSHA's Aerial Lifts Standard, and that the
equipment is as safe as it was prior to the modification.

DATES: Comments must be submitted (postmarked, sent, or received) by
November 28, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, conducts a
preclearance consultation program to provide the public with an
opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing information
collection requirements in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (PRA-95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program ensures that
information is in the desired format, reporting burden (time and costs)
is minimal, collection instruments are clearly understood, and OSHA's
estimate of the information collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651
et seq.) authorizes information collection by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the OSH Act or for developing
information regarding the causes and prevention of occupational
injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act also
requires OSHA to obtain such information with minimum burden upon
employers, especially those operating small businesses, and to reduce
to the maximum extent feasible unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
    The certification requirement specified in the Aerial Lifts
Standard demonstrates that the manufacturer or an equally-qualified
entity has assessed a modified aerial lift and found that it was safe
for use by, or near, workers; and that it would provide workers with a
level of protection at least equivalent to the protection afforded by
the lift prior to modification.

II. Special Issues for Comment

    OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues:
     Whether the proposed information collection requirements
are necessary for the proper performance of the Agency's functions,
including whether the information is useful;
     The accuracy of OSHA's estimate of the burden (time and
costs) of the information collection requirements, including the
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
     The quality, utility, and clarity of the information
collected; and
     Ways to minimize the burden on employers who must comply;
for

example, by using automated or other technological information
collection and transmission techniques.

III. Proposed Actions

    There is an adjustment decrease of 13 hours as a result of removing
the burden hours for an employer to disclose records to an OSHA
compliance officer during an inspection, bringing the total burden
hours to zero (0). However, while no responses have in fact been
received, DOL is using the figure of ``10'' responses in order to have
the ICR comport to regulation 5 CFR 1320.3(c)(4)(i), which deems any
rule of general applicability to involve at least 10 respondents. The
Agency is, therefore, using the above per response burden to maintain a
time burden as close as is possible to the actual time of no hours (1
hour).
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Title: Aerial Lifts (29 CFR 1926.453).
    OMB Control Number: 1218-0216.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profits.
    Number of Respondents: 10.
    Frequency of Responses: On occasion.
    Total Responses: 10.
    Average Time per Response: 6 minutes (0.10 hour).
    Estimated Total Burden Hours: 1.
    Estimated Cost (Operation and Maintenance): $0.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP13-64-000]

Gulf Crossing Pipeline Company LLC; Notice of Intent To Prepare
an Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Panda Power Lateral
Project and Request for Comments on Environmental Issues

    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will prepare an environmental assessment (EA) that will
discuss the environmental impacts of the Panda Power Lateral Project
involving construction and operation of facilities by Gulf Crossing
Pipeline Company LLC (Gulf Crossing) in Grayson County, Texas. The
Commission will use this EA in its decision-making process to determine
whether the project is in the public convenience and necessity.
    This notice announces the opening of the scoping process the
Commission will use to gather input from the public and interested
agencies on the project. Your input will help the Commission staff
determine what issues they need to evaluate in the EA. Please note that
the scoping period will close on April 3, 2013.
    This notice is being sent to the Commission's current environmental
mailing list for this project. State and local government
representatives should notify their constituents of this proposed
project and encourage them to comment on their areas of concern.
    If you are a landowner receiving this notice, a pipeline company
representative may contact you about the acquisition of an easement to
construct, operate, and maintain the proposed facilities. The company
would seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable agreement. However, if
the Commission approves the project, that approval conveys with it the
right of eminent domain. Therefore, if easement negotiations fail to
produce an agreement, the pipeline company could initiate condemnation
proceedings where compensation would be determined in accordance with
state law.
    Gulf Crossing provided landowners with a fact sheet prepared by the
FERC entitled ``An Interstate Natural Gas Facility On My Land? What Do
I Need To Know?''. This fact sheet addresses a number of typically-
asked questions, including the use of eminent domain and how to
participate in the Commission's proceedings. It is also available for
viewing on the FERC Web site (www.ferc.gov).

Summary of the Proposed Project

    Gulf Crossing proposes to construct and operate a new pipeline
lateral along with metering, interconnect, and pigging facilities north
of Dallas, Texas in Grayson County, Texas. The Panda Power Lateral
would provide 125,000 dekatherms per day of deliverable natural gas
capacity from its takeoff at the Sherman Compressor Station located 10
miles northeast of Sherman, Texas, to Panda Sherman Power, LLC's Panda
Sherman Power Plant I electric generation power plant, currently under
construction on the south side of Sherman, Texas. According to Gulf
Crossing, its project would help meet the increasing demands for
electricity in the expanding market area of north central Texas.
    The Panda Power Lateral Project (Project) would consist of the
following facilities:
     A 16.5-mile-long 16-inch-diameter pipeline lateral;
     A pig launcher barrel and system tie-in facilities at
Milepost (MP) 0.0 consisting of a 16-inch launcher barrel and
associated piping and valves; \1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ A ``pig'' is a tool that the pipeline company inserts into
and pushes through the pipeline for cleaning the pipeline,
conducting internal inspections, or other purposes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Two mainline valves and appurtenant facilities at MPs 8.74
and 14.76;
     A pig receiver barrel and meter station consisting of a
16-inch receiver barrel and associated piping and valves at MP 16.52;
and
     An Enterprise Texas Pipeline (ETP) interconnect at MP
14.75 consisting of a meter and flow control station to be built,
owned, and operated by ETP.
    The general location of the project facilities is shown in appendix
1.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The appendices referenced in this notice will not appear in
the Federal Register. Copies of appendices were sent to all those
receiving this notice in the mail and are available at www.ferc.gov
using the link called ``eLibrary'' or from the Commission's Public
Reference Room, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, or call
(202) 502-8371. For instructions on connecting to eLibrary, refer to
the last page of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Land Requirements for Construction

    Construction of the proposed facilities would require disturbance
of 271 acres of land. This total would include 158 acres of temporary
right-of-way that would be fully restored to original use, and 113
acres of new permanent right-of-way required for the pipeline,
appurtenant facilities, and access roads. Eleven of the 29 access roads
to be used for construction would be new, five would be temporary, and
only two of the proposed 24 permanent access roads would require
improvements beyond a gravel or dirt surface. Some of the access roads
All the access roads The temporary right-of-way would be comprised of
81 acres of nominal workspace along the pipeline, 38 acres of temporary
additional workspaces along the pipeline, and 36 acres of contractor
yards. Gulf Crossing would use a typical construction right-of-way
width of 75 to 100 feet and a permanent right-of-way width of 50 feet.
About 55 percent of the proposed pipelines would parallel existing
pipeline, electric, and sewer utility rights-of-way.

The EA Process

    The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requires the
Commission to take into account the environmental impacts that could
result from an action

whenever it considers the issuance of a Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity. NEPA also requires us \3\ to discover and
address concerns the public may have about proposals. This process is
referred to as ``scoping.'' The main goal of the scoping process is to
focus the analysis in the EA on the important environmental issues. By
this notice, the Commission requests public comments on the scope of
the issues to address in the EA. We will consider all filed comments
during the preparation of the EA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ ``We,'' ``us,'' and ``our'' refer to the environmental staff
of the Commission's Office of Energy Projects.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the EA we will discuss impacts that could occur as a result of
the construction and operation of the proposed project under these
general headings:
     Geology and soils;
     Land use;
     Water resources, fisheries, and wetlands;
     Cultural resources;
     Vegetation and wildlife;
     Air quality and noise;
     Endangered and threatened species; and
     Public safety.
    We will also evaluate reasonable alternatives to the proposed
project or portions of the project, and make recommendations on how to
lessen or avoid impacts on the various resource areas.
    The EA will present our independent analysis of the issues. The EA
will be available in the public record through eLibrary. Depending on
the comments received during the scoping process, we may also publish
and distribute the EA to the public for an allotted comment period. We
will consider all comments on the EA before making our recommendations
to the Commission. To ensure we have the opportunity to consider and
address your comments, please carefully follow the instructions in the
Public Participation section beginning on page 5.
    With this notice, we are asking agencies with jurisdiction by law
and/or special expertise with respect to the environmental issues of
this project to formally cooperate with us in the preparation of the
EA.\4\ Agencies that would like to request cooperating agency status
should follow the instructions for filing comments provided under the
Public Participation section of this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Council on Environmental Quality regulations addressing
cooperating agency responsibilities are at Title 40, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 1501.6.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Consultations Under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation
Act

    In accordance with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's
implementing regulations for section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act, we are using this notice to initiate consultation
with applicable State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), and to
solicit their views and those of other government agencies, interested
Indian tribes, and the public on the project's potential effects on
historic properties.\5\ We will define the project-specific Area of
Potential Effects (APE) in consultation with the SHPOs as the project
develops. On natural gas facility projects, the APE at a minimum
encompasses all areas subject to ground disturbance (examples include
construction right-of-way, contractor/pipe storage yards, compressor
stations, and access roads). Our EA for this project will document our
findings on the impacts on historic properties and summarize the status
of consultations under section 106.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's regulations
are at Title 36, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 800. Those
regulations define historic properties as any prehistoric or
historic district, site, building, structure, or object included in
or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic
Places.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
