SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release Nos. 33-9927; 34-75973; File No. 265-27]

Advisory Committee on Small and Emerging Companies

AGENCY: Securities and Exchange Commission.

ACTION: Notice of Federal Advisory Committee Renewal.

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

SUMMARY: The Securities and Exchange Commission is publishing this
notice to announce the renewal of the Securities and Exchange
Commission Advisory Committee on Small and Emerging Companies.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Julie Davis, Senior Special Counsel,
Office of Small Business Policy, Securities and Exchange Commission,
100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the requirements of the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5 U.S.C.--App., the Commission is
publishing this notice that the Chair of the Commission, with the
concurrence of the other Commissioners, has approved the renewal of the
Securities and Exchange Commission Advisory Committee on Small and
Emerging Companies (the ``Committee''). The Chair of the Commission
affirms that the renewal of the Committee is necessary and in the
public interest.
    The Committee's objective is to provide the Commission with advice
on its rules, regulations, and policies, with regard to its mission of
protecting investors, maintaining fair, orderly, and efficient markets,
and facilitating capital formation, as they relate to the following:
    (1) Capital raising by emerging privately held small businesses
(``emerging companies'') and publicly traded companies with less than
$250 million in public market capitalization (``smaller public
companies'') through securities offerings, including private and
limited offerings and initial and other public offerings;
    (2) trading in the securities of emerging companies and smaller
public companies; and
    (3) public reporting and corporate governance requirements of
emerging companies and smaller public companies.
    Up to 20 voting members will be appointed to the Committee who can
effectively represent those directly affected by, interested in, and/or
qualified to provide advice to the Commission on its rules,
regulations, and policies as set forth above. The Committee's
membership will continue to be balanced fairly in terms of points of
view represented and functions to be performed. Non-voting observers
for the Committee from the North American Securities Administrators
Association and the U.S. Small Business Administration may also be
named.
    The charter provides that the duties of the Committee are to be
solely advisory. The Commission alone will make any determinations of
action to be taken and policy to be expressed with respect to matters
within the Commission's authority as to which the Committee provides
advice or makes recommendations. The Committee will meet at such
intervals as are necessary to carry out its functions. The charter
contemplates that the full Committee will meet four times annually.
Meetings of subgroups or subcommittees of the full Committee may occur
more frequently.
    The Committee will operate for two years from the date it was
renewed or such earlier date as determined by the Commission unless,
before the expiration of that time period, it is renewed in accordance
with the Federal Advisory Committee Act. A copy of the charter for the
Committee has been filed with the Chair of the Commission, the
Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the United States
Senate, the Committee on Financial Services of the United States House
of Representatives, the Committee Management Secretariat of the General
Services Administration, and the Library of Congress. It also has been
posted on the Commission's Web site at www.sec.gov.

    By the Commission.
    Dated: September 24, 2015.
Brent J. Fields,
Secretary.

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Model 737-600, -700,
-700C, -800, and -900 Series Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900 series airplanes.
This proposed AD would require inspecting for part numbers of the
operational program software of the flight control computers, and doing
corrective actions if necessary. This proposed AD results from reports
of erroneous undetected output from a single radio altimeter channel,
which resulted in premature autothrottle retard during approach. We are
proposing this AD to detect and correct erroneous output from a radio
altimeter channel, which could result in premature autothrottle landing
flare retard and the loss of automatic speed control, and consequent
loss of control of the airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by November 8,
2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposed AD. Send your comments to an address
listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2010-0856;
Directorate Identifier 2010-NM-117-AD'' at the beginning of your
comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this proposed AD. We
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this proposed AD because of those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://
www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this proposed AD.

Discussion

    We have received reports of a number of instances in service, of
erroneous undetected output from a single radio altimeter channel,
which resulted in premature autothrottle retard during approach. This
condition can lead to premature autothrottle landing flare retard and
the loss of automatic speed control, and consequent loss of control of
the airplane.

Relevant Service Information

    We have reviewed Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-22A1211, dated
April 13, 2010, which describes procedures for inspecting to determine
the operational program software part numbers of the flight control
computers, and installing new software if necessary.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

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

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD would affect 207 airplanes of
U.S. registry. We also estimate that it would take about 1 work-hour
per product to comply with the inspection of this proposed AD. The
average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we
estimate the cost of the inspection of this proposed AD to the U.S.
operators to be $17,595, or $85 per product.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications

under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not have a
substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between
the national Government and the States, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866,
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979), 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.
    You can find our regulatory evaluation and the estimated costs of
compliance in the AD Docket.

I. Proposed Action
II. Public Comments and EPA Responses
III. EPA Action
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

I. Proposed Action

    On October 5, 2017 (82 FR 46444), the EPA proposed to approve the
second 10-year maintenance plan for the San

Manuel, Arizona SO2 maintenance area. Submitted by the
Arizona Department of Environmental Quality on April 21, 2017, the San
Manuel second 10-year maintenance plan (``plan'') demonstrates
maintenance of the 1971 SO2 standards through the second
maintenance period of 2018-2028.
    We proposed to approve the plan because we determined that it
complied with the relevant Clean Air Act (CAA or ``Act'') requirements.
Our proposed action contains more information on the plan and our
evaluation (82 FR 46444, October 5, 2017).

II. Public Comments and EPA Responses

    The EPA's proposed action provided a 30-day public comment period.
During this period, we received one anonymous comment on October 10,
2017. The comment raised issues that are outside the scope of our
proposed approval of the San Manuel second 10-year maintenance plan.

III. EPA Action

    The EPA is taking final rulemaking action to approve the San Manuel
second 10-year SO2 maintenance plan under sections 110 and
175A of the CAA. As authorized in section 110(k)(3) of the Act, the EPA
is approving the submitted SIP revision because it fulfills all
relevant requirements.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    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. See 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, the 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 Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 2,
2017) regulatory action because SIP approvals are exempted under
Executive Order 12866;
     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
on 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 the 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, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area where the EPA or an Indian tribe
has demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of
Indian country, the rule does not have tribal implications and will not
impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal
law as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9,
2000).
    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. The 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 publishes 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 CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by February 13, 2018. 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 approving the revision to the State of Arizona's
SIP may not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its
requirements. (See section 307(b)(2)).

Meeting Objectives

    At the technical meeting, Commission staff will focus the
discussion on the information gaps that need to be addressed to ensure
that sufficient information exists for the Commission to make a
determination on whether the proposed project meets the criteria for a
pilot project and for processing a license application for a pilot
project once it is filed with the Commission.

Procedures

    The meetings will be recorded by a stenographer and will become
part of the formal record of the Commission proceeding on the project.

Secretary.
