DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 12628-002-IA]

The City of Nashua, Iowa; Notice of Availability of Environmental
Assessment

May 26, 2010.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations, 18 CFR part
380 (Order No. 486, 52 FR 47897), the Office of Energy Projects has
reviewed the application for an original license for the Cedar Lake Dam
Hydroelectric Project, to be located on the Cedar River, within the
City of Nashua, Chickasaw County, Iowa, and has prepared an
Environmental Assessment (EA). In the EA, Commission staff analyze the
potential environmental effects of licensing the project and conclude
that issuing a license for the project, with appropriate environmental
measures, would not constitute a major Federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human environment.
    A copy of the EA is on file with the Commission and is available
for public inspection. The EA may also be viewed on the Commission's
Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-73304; File No. SR-NYSE-2014-54]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; New York Stock Exchange LLC;
Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change
That Constitutes a Stated Interpretation With Respect to the Meaning,
Administration, and Enforcement of Rule 46

October 6, 2014.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act'') \2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that October 2, 2014, New York Stock Exchange LLC (``NYSE'' or
the ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I,
II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the self-
regulatory organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

    \2\ 15 U.S.C. 78a.
    \3\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange proposes a rule change that constitutes a stated
interpretation with respect to the meaning, administration, and
enforcement of Rule 46. The Exchange is not proposing any changes to
the text of the current version of Rule 46. The proposed rule change is
available on the Exchange's Web site at www.nyse.com, at the principal
office of the Exchange, 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 self-regulatory organization
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 those 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 parts of such statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The New York Stock Exchange LLC (``NYSE'' or the ``Exchange'')
proposes a rule change that constitutes a stated interpretation with
respect to the meaning, administration, and enforcement of Rule 46 in
connection with the transfer of qualified Intercontinental Exchange,
Inc. (``ICE'') staff Floor Governors to NYSE Regulation, Inc. (``NYSE
Regulation'').
    Rule 46 permits the Exchange to appoint active NYSE members \4\ as
Floor Officials.\5\ Rule 46 also permits the Exchange to appoint
``qualified'' ICE employees to act as Floor Governors, one of the more
senior types of Floor Officials.\6\ Supplementary Material .10 defines
``qualified'' employees as ``employees of ICE or any of its
subsidiaries, excluding employees of NYSE Regulation, Inc., who shall
have satisfied any applicable testing or qualification required by the
NYSE for all Floor Governors.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Rule 2(a) states that the term ``member,'' when referring to
a natural person, means a natural person associated with a member
organization who has been approved by the Exchange and designated by
such member organization to effect transactions on the Exchange
trading Floor or any facility thereof.
    \5\ Floor Officials are delegated certain authority from the
Board of Directors of the Exchange to supervise and regulate active
openings and unusual situations that arise in connection with the
making of bids, offers or transactions on the trading Floor, and to
review and approve certain trading actions, such as trades to be
effected at wide variations in price and delayed openings and
trading halts.
    \6\ Pursuant to Rules 46 and 46A, Floor Governors are one of
several ranks of the broader category of Floor Officials, including,
in order of increasing seniority, Floor Officials, Senior Floor
Officials, Executive Floor Officials, Floor Governors and Executive
Floor Governors. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 57627
(April 4, 2008), 73 FR 19919 (April 11, 2008) (SR-NYSE-2008-19).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The prohibition on appointing NYSE Regulation employees to act as
Floor Governors was put in place when the ``qualified Exchange
employee'' category of Floor Official was adopted in 2008.\7\ The
prohibition was necessary to avoid potential conflicts of interest
insofar as the process for qualifying Floor Officials, including Floor
Governors, was performed by NYSE Regulation.\8\ However, while Rule 46
prohibits appointment of NYSE Regulation employees to act as Floor
Governors, the Exchange believes that the Rule does not prohibit
already qualified Floor Governors from becoming NYSE Regulation
employees. The hiring by NYSE Regulation of ICE employees or members
who are already

qualified to act as Floor Governors would not involve NYSE Regulation
in qualifying those individuals to act as Floor Governors under Rule 46
and would therefore not give rise to the real or apparent conflict of
interest the prohibition was intended to avoid.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34-57627 (April 4,
2008), 73 FR 19919 (April 11, 2008) (SR-NYSE-2007-2).
    \8\ NYSE Regulation examined the fitness of prospective Floor
Officials and administered a mandatory education program, which all
candidates for Floor Official, including Floor Governor, had to
complete. NYSE Regulation also administered a qualifying
examination. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34-57627 (April
4, 2008), 73 FR 19919 (April 11, 2008) (SR-NYSE-2007-2). On June 14,
2010, the Exchange, NYSE Regulation and FINRA [sic] retained the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (``FINRA'') pursuant to a
Regulatory Services Agreement (``RSA'') to perform the market
surveillance, enforcement and other miscellaneous functions that up
to that point had been performed by NYSE Regulation, including all
education and testing-related regulatory services on behalf of NYSE
Regulation, including the Floor Official mandatory education program
and qualification testing. See Securities Exchange Act Release No.
62355 (June 22, 2010), 75 FR 36729 (June 28, 2010) (SR-NYSE-2010-
46).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that the proposed interpretation would
facilitate the contemplated transfer of existing ICE staff Floor
Governors to NYSE Regulation. The individuals that would transfer to
NYSE Regulation are experienced former Floor members who served as
senior-level Floor Officials before becoming employees of ICE and are
already qualified and have been appointed to act as staff Floor
Governors. Because NYSE Regulation is not proposing to qualify
additional staff not already approved as Floor Governors, the Exchange
believes there would be no violation of Rule 46.
    In addition, the interpretation does not in any way affect the role
of Floor Officials or alter the safeguards in place to ensure that
staff Floor Governors are knowledgeable and able to effectively
intervene when needed on the Exchange trading Floor.\9\ Finally, NYSE
Regulation does not propose to seek to qualify existing NYSE Regulation
employees as staff Floor Governors.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34-57627 (April 4,
2008), 73 FR 19919 (April 11, 2008) (SR-NYSE-2007-2). These
safeguards include, among other things, that qualified Exchange
employees, like qualified members, need to be appointed by the
Exchange's chairman in consultation with the Executive Floor
Governors and NYSE Regulation Board of Directors and approved by the
Board of Directors.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act,\10\ in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\11\ in particular, because it
is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices,
promote just and equitable principles of trade, remove impediments to
and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national
market system, and protect investors and the public interest. The
Exchange believes that the proposed stated interpretation helps prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices by continuing to require
high standards for qualified Exchange employees to act as Floor
Governors in addition to members. Similarly, the proposed stated
interpretation promotes just and equitable principles of trade and
removes impediments to and perfects the mechanism of a free and open
market by ensuring that qualified Exchange employees are knowledgeable
and able to effectively intervene on the Exchange trading Floor as
needed. For the same reasons, the proposal is also designed to protect
investors as well as the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \11\ 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
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed rule change is
intended to effect a change that constitutes a stated policy, practice
or interpretation with respect to the meaning, administration, or
enforcement of an existing rule and therefore would not impose any
burden on competition.

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

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

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) \12\ of the Act and Rule 19b-4(f)(1) \13\ thereunder. The
proposed rule change effects a change that constitutes a stated policy,
practice or interpretation with respect to the meaning, administration,
or enforcement of an existing rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \13\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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:

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 amends Class D airspace at Miami, and Hollywood, FL. The
geographic coordinates of the Opa Locka Airport will be corrected to
coincide with the FAAs National Aeronautical Navigation Services.
Accordingly, since this is an administrative change, and does not
involve a change in the dimensions or operating requirements of that
airspace, notice and public procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are
unnecessary.
    The Class D airspace designations are published in Paragraph 5000
of FAA order 7400.9U, signed August 18, 2010, and effective September
15, 2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class
D airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.
    The FAA has determined that his regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them, operationally current,
is non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore, (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 that this rule, when promulgated, will 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 United States Code. 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.
    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
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 amends controlled airspace at Miami and Hollywood, FL.

14 CFR Part 25

[Docket No. FAA-2017-0482; Special Conditions No. 25-709-SC]

Special Conditions: Airbus Model A330-841 and A330-941 New Engine
Option (A330neo) Airplanes; Use of High-Incidence Protection and Alpha-
Floor Systems

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final special conditions; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: These special conditions are issued for the Airbus Model A330-
841 and A330-941 New Engine Option (A330neo) airplanes. These airplanes
will have a novel or unusual design feature when compared to the state
of technology envisioned in the airworthiness standards for transport-
category airplanes. This design feature is a high-incidence protection
system that limits the angle of attack (AOA) at which the airplane can
be flown during normal low-speed operations, and that the flightcrew
cannot override. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not
contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design
feature. These special conditions contain the additional safety
standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a
level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing
airworthiness standards.

DATES: This action is effective on Airbus on January 16, 2018. Send
your comments by March 2, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Send comments identified by docket number FAA-2017-0482
using any of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: These special conditions are derived from
special conditions of the same topic for the Airbus Model A380 airplane
(Special Conditions No. 25-316-SC). The substance of these special
conditions has been published in the Federal Register for public
comment in several prior instances. The FAA therefore finds it
unnecessary to delay the effective date, and finds that good cause
exists for making these special conditions effective upon publication
in the Federal Register.

Comments Invited

    We invite interested people to take part in this rulemaking by
sending written comments, data, or views. The most helpful comments
reference a specific portion of the special conditions, explain the
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data.
    We will consider all comments we receive by the closing date for
comments. We may change these special conditions based on the comments
we receive.

Background

    On January 20, 2015, Airbus applied for an amendment to Type
Certificate no. A46NM to include the new Model A330-841 and A330-941
New Engine Option airplanes, collectively marketed as Model A330neo
airplanes. These airplanes, which are derivatives of the Model A330-200
and A330-300 airplanes currently approved under Type Certificate No.
A46NM, are wide-body, jet-engine airplanes with a maximum takeoff
weight of 533,519 pounds, and a passenger capacity of 257 (A330-841);
or a maximum takeoff weight of 535,503 pounds, and a passenger capacity
of 287 (A330-941).

Type Certification Basis

    Under the provisions of Sec.  21.101, Airbus must show that the
Model A330neo airplanes meet the applicable provisions of the
regulations listed in Type Certificate No. A46NM, or the applicable
regulations in effect on the date of application for the change except
for earlier amendments as agreed upon by the FAA.
    For the high-incidence protection system, Airbus will not meet the
latest standards, as outlined in the Airbus Model A350 airplane special
conditions (Special Conditions No. 25-517-SC). However, in accordance
with Sec.  21.101, Airbus has agreed to meet improved standards
relative to the original Airbus Model A330 airplane certification basis
corresponding to Airbus Model A380 airplane standards.
    If the Administrator finds that the applicable airworthiness
regulations (i.e., title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part
25) do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for Model
A330neo airplanes because of a novel or unusual design feature, special
conditions are prescribed under the provisions of Sec.  21.16.
    Special conditions are initially applicable to the model for which
they are issued. Should the type certificate for that model be amended
later to include any other model that incorporates the same novel or
unusual design feature, or should any other model already included on
the same type certificate be modified to incorporate the same novel or
unusual design feature, these special conditions would also apply to
the other model under Sec.  21.101.
    In addition to the applicable airworthiness regulations and special
conditions, the Model A330neo airplanes must comply with the fuel-vent
and exhaust-emission requirements of 14 CFR part 34 and the noise-
certification requirements of 14 CFR part 36.
    The FAA issues special conditions, as defined in 14 CFR 11.19, in
accordance with Sec.  11.38, and they become part of the type
certification basis under Sec.  21.101.

Novel or Unusual Design Features

    The Airbus Model A330neo airplanes will incorporate the following
novel or unusual design features:
    A high-incidence protection system that limits the angle of attack
at which the airplane can be flown during normal low-speed operations,
and that the flightcrew cannot override.

Discussion

    The application of this high-incidence protection system, which
limits the airplane's AOA, impacts the longitudinal airplane handling
characteristics. In addition, the Alpha-floor function automatically
advances the throttles on the operating engines under flight
circumstances of low speed if the airplane reaches a predetermined high
AOA. This function is intended to provide increased climb capability.
    The high-incidence protection system prevents the airplane from
stalling and, therefore, the stall-warning system is not needed during
normal flight conditions. If there is a failure of this system that is
not shown to be extremely improbable, the flight characteristics at the
AOA for lift coefficient CLmax (an airspeed calculated from
a variety of factors; see item 1.f. in these special conditions) must
be suitable in the traditional sense, and stall warning must be
provided in a conventional manner.
    These special conditions contain the additional safety standards
that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of
safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness
standards.

Applicability

    As discussed above, these special conditions are applicable to the
Airbus Model A330-841 and A330-941 (A330neo) airplanes. Should Airbus
apply at a later date for a change to the type certificate to include
another model incorporating the same novel or unusual design feature,
these special conditions would apply to that model as well.

Conclusion

    This action affects only certain novel or unusual design features
on one model series of airplanes. It is not a rule of general
applicability.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 25

    Aircraft, Aviation safety, Reporting and recordkeeping
requirements.
    The authority citation for these special conditions is as follows:

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701, 44702, 44704.

The Special Conditions

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the following special conditions are issued as part of
the type certification basis for Airbus Model A330-841 and A330-941
(A330neo) airplanes.
    1. Definitions: The following definitions apply for terminology
that does not appear in 14 CFR part 25:
    a. High-Incidence Protection System: A system that operates
directly and automatically on the airplane's flying controls to limit
the maximum incidence that can be attained to a value below that at
which an aerodynamic stall would occur.
    b. Alpha-Floor System: A system that automatically increases thrust
on the operating engines when incidence increases through a particular
value.
    c. Alpha limit: The maximum steady incidence at which the airplane
stabilizes with the high-incidence protection system operating and the
longitudinal control held on its aft stop.
    d. Vmin: The minimum steady flight speed, for the
airplane configuration under consideration and with the high-incidence
protection system operating, is the final, stabilized, calibrated

airspeed obtained when the airplane is decelerated at an entry rate not
exceeding 1 knot per second until the longitudinal pilot controller is
on its stop.
    e. Vmin1g: Vmin corrected to 1g conditions.
It is the minimum calibrated airspeed at which the airplane can develop
a lift force normal to the flight path and equal to its weight when at
an AOA not greater than that determined for Vmin.
    f. VCLmax: An airspeed calculated from a variety of
factors including load factor normal to the flight path at
VCLmax, airplane gross weight, aerodynamic reference wing
area, and dynamic pressure.
    2. Capability and Reliability of the High-Incidence Protection
System: These special conditions are in lieu of 14 CFR 25.103, 25.145,
25.201, 25.203, 25.207, and 25.1323, provided that acceptable
capability and reliability of the high-incidence protection system can
be established by flight test, simulation, and analysis as appropriate.
The capability and reliability required are as follows:
    a. It must not be possible during pilot-induced maneuvers to
encounter a stall, and handling characteristics must be acceptable, as
required by condition 5 of these special conditions.
    b. The airplane must be protected against stalling due to the
effects of wind shears and gusts at low speeds, as required by
condition 6 of these special conditions.
    c. The ability of the high-incidence protection system to
accommodate any reduction in stalling incidence resulting from residual
ice must be verified.
    d. The reliability of the system and the effects of failures must
be acceptable in accordance with Sec.  25.1309 and the associated
policy.
    3. Minimum Steady Flight Speed and Reference Stall Speed: In lieu
of Sec.  25.103, the following requirements apply:
    a. Vmin: The minimum steady flight speed, for the
airplane configuration under consideration and with the high-incidence
protection system operating, is the final, stabilized, calibrated
airspeed obtained when the airplane is decelerated at an entry rate not
exceeding 1 knot per second until the longitudinal control is on its
stop.
    b. The minimum steady flight speed, Vmin, must be
determined with:
    i. The high-incidence protection system operating normally.
    ii. Idle thrust.
    iii. Alpha-Floor System inhibited.
    iv. All combinations of flap settings and landing gear positions.
    v. The weight used when VSR is being used as a factor to
determine compliance with a required performance standard.
    vi. The most unfavorable center of gravity (CG) allowable, and
    vii. The airplane trimmed for straight flight at a speed achievable
by the automatic trim system.
    c. Vmin1g: Vmin corrected to 1g conditions.
It is the minimum calibrated airspeed at which the airplane can develop
a lift force normal to the flight path and equal to the weight of the
airplane when at an AOA not greater than that determined for
Vmin. Vmin1g is defined as follows:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR16JA18.000

Where

nzw = load factor normal to the flight path at
Vmin

    d. The Reference Stall Speed, VSR, is a calibrated
airspeed defined by the applicant. VSR may not be less than
a 1g stall speed. VSR is expressed as:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR16JA18.001

Where

VCLmax = Calibrated airspeed obtained when the load-
factor-corrected lift coefficient
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR16JA18.002

is first a maximum during the maneuver prescribed in condition
(3)(e)(viii) of these special conditions.

nzw = Load factor normal to the flight path at
VCLmax
W = Airplane gross weight;
S = Aerodynamic reference wing area; and
q = Dynamic pressure.

    Note: Unless AOA protection-system (stall warning and stall
identification) production tolerances are acceptably small, so as to
produce insignificant changes in performance determinations, the
flight-test settings for stall warning and stall identification
should be set at the low AOA tolerance limit; high AOA tolerance
limits should be used for characteristics evaluations.

    e. VCLmax must be determined with the following
conditions:
    i. Engines idling, or, if that resultant thrust causes an
appreciable decrease in stall speed, not more than zero thrust at the
stall speed.
    ii. The airplane in other respects (such as flaps and landing gear)
in the condition existing in the test or performance standard in which
VSR is being used.
    iii. The weight used when VSR is being used as a factor
to determine compliance with a required performance standard.
    iv. The CG position that results in the highest value of reference
stall speed.
    v. The airplane trimmed for straight flight at a speed achievable
by the automatic trim system, but not less than 1.13 VSR and
not greater than 1.3 VSR.
    vi. The Alpha-Floor System inhibited.
    vii. The high-incidence protection system adjusted to a high enough
incidence to allow full development of the 1g stall.
    viii. Starting from the stabilized trim condition, apply the
longitudinal control to decelerate the airplane so that the speed
reduction does not exceed one knot per second.
    f. The flight characteristics at the AOA for CLmax must
be suitable in the traditional sense at forward (FWD) and aft (AFT) CG
in straight and turning flight at IDLE power. Although for a normal
production Electronic Flight Control System (EFCS) and steady full aft
stick, this AOA for CLmax cannot be achieved. The AOA can be
obtained momentarily under dynamic circumstances, and deliberately in a
steady-state sense, with some EFCS failure conditions.
    4. Stall Warning:
    In lieu of Sec.  25.207, the following requirements apply:
    a. Normal Operation: If the items in condition 2, above, are
satisfied, equivalent safety to the intent of Sec.  25.207, Stall
Warning, must be considered to have been met without provision of an
additional, unique warning device.
    b. Failure Cases: Following failures of the high-incidence
protection system not shown to be extremely improbable, if the system
no longer satisfies items in conditions 2. a., b., and c., stall
warning must be provided in accordance with Sec.  25.207. The stall
warning should prevent inadvertent stall in the following conditions:
    i. Power off straight stall approaches to a speed 5 percent below
the warning onset.
    ii. Turning-flight stall approaches at entry rates up to 3 knots
per second when recovery is initiated not less than 1 second after the
warning onset.
    5. Handling Characteristics at High Incidence:
    a. High-Incidence Handling Demonstrations: In lieu of Sec.  25.201,
the following requirements apply:
    i. Maneuvers to the limit of the longitudinal control, in the nose-
up direction, must be demonstrated in

straight flight and in 30-degree banked turns with:
    1. The high-incidence protection system operating normally.
    2. Initial power condition of:
    a. Power off
    b. The power necessary to maintain level flight at 1.5
VSR1, where VSR1 is the reference stall speed
with the flaps in the approach position, the landing gear retracted,
and the maximum landing weight. The flap position to be used in
determining this power setting is that position in which the stall
speed, VSR1, does not exceed 110 percent of the stall speed,
VSR0, with the flaps in the most extended landing position.
    3. Alpha-Floor System operating normally, unless more severe
conditions are achieved with Alpha floor inhibited.
    4. Flaps, landing gear, and deceleration devices in any likely
combination of positions.
    5. Representative weights within the range for which certification
is requested, and
    6. The airplane trimmed for straight flight at a speed achievable
by the automatic trim system.
    b. The following procedures must be used to show compliance with
these special conditions:
    i. Starting at a speed sufficiently above the minimum steady flight
speed to ensure that a steady rate of speed reduction can be
established, apply the longitudinal control so that the speed reduction
does not exceed 1 knot per second until the control reaches the stop.
    ii. The longitudinal control must be maintained at its stop until
the airplane has reached a stabilized flight condition, and must then
be recovered by normal recovery techniques.
    iii. The requirements for turning-flight maneuver demonstrations
must also be met with accelerated rates of entry to the incidence
limit, up to the maximum rate achievable.
    c. Characteristics in High Incidence Maneuvers: In lieu of Sec.
25.203, the following requirements apply:
    i. Throughout maneuvers with a rate of deceleration of not more
than 1 knot per second, both in straight flight and in 30-degree banked
turns, the airplane's characteristics must be as follows:
    1. There must not be any abnormal airplane nose-up pitching.
    2. There must not be any uncommanded nose-down pitching, which
would be indicative of stall. However, reasonable attitude changes
associated with stabilizing the incidence at Alpha limit, as the
longitudinal control reaches its stop, would be acceptable. Any
reduction of pitch attitude associated with stabilizing the incidence
at the Alpha limit should be achieved smoothly and at a low pitch rate,
such that it is not likely to be mistaken for natural-stall
identification.
    3. There must not be any uncommanded lateral or directional motion,
and the pilot must retain good lateral and directional control by
conventional use of the cockpit controllers throughout the maneuver.
    4. The airplane must not exhibit buffeting of a magnitude and
severity that would act as a deterrent to completing the maneuver
specified in Sec.  25.201(a), as amended by this special condition.
    ii. In maneuvers with increased rates of deceleration, some
degradation of characteristics, associated with a transient excursion
beyond the stabilized Alpha limit, is acceptable. However, the airplane
must not exhibit dangerous characteristics or characteristics that
would deter the pilot from holding the longitudinal controller on its
stop for a period of time appropriate to the maneuvers.
    iii. It must always be possible to reduce incidence by conventional
use of the controller.
    iv. The rate at which the airplane can be maneuvered from trim
speeds associated with scheduled operating speeds such as V2
and VREF up to Alpha limit, must not be unduly damped or
significantly slower than can be achieved on conventionally controlled
transport airplanes.
    6. Atmospheric Disturbances: Operation of the high-incidence
protection system must not adversely affect airplane control during
expected levels of atmospheric disturbances, nor impede the application
of recovery procedures in case of wind shear. This must be demonstrated
in non-icing and icing conditions.
    7. Alpha Floor: The Alpha-floor setting must be such that the
airplane can be flown at normal landing operational speed, and
maneuvered up to bank angles consistent with the flight phase
(including the maneuver capabilities specified in Sec.  25.143(g)),
without triggering Alpha floor. In addition, there must be no Alpha-
floor triggering unless appropriate when the airplane is flown in usual
operational maneuvers and in turbulence.
    8. Proof of Compliance: Change Sec.  25.21 as follows:
    Section 25.21(b)--The flying qualities must be evaluated at the
most unfavorable CG position.
    9. For Sec. Sec.  25.145(a), 25.145(a), and 25.145(b)(6), the
following requirements apply:
    a. Section 25.145(a)--It must be possible, at any point between the
trim speed prescribed in Sec.  25.103(b)(7) as amended by this special
condition and Vmin, to pitch the nose downward so that the
acceleration to this selected trim speed is prompt with--
    b. Section 25.145(a)(1)--The airplane trimmed at the trim speed
prescribed in Sec.  25.103(b)(7) as amended by this special condition.
    c. Section 25.145(b)(6)--With power off, flaps extended and the
airplane trimmed at 1.3 VSR1, obtain and maintain airspeeds
between Vmin and either 1.6VSR1 or
VFE, whichever is lower.
    10. In lieu of Sec.  25.1323(d), the following requirement applies:
    (d) From 1.23 VSR to Vmin, the IAS must change
perceptibly with CAS and in the same sense, and at speeds below
Vmin speed the IAS must not change in an incorrect sense.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-70846; File No. SR-C2-2013-038]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; C2 Options Exchange, Incorporated;
Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change
Relating to Obvious Error

November 12, 2013.
    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 October 28, 2013, C2 Options Exchange, Incorporated (the
``Exchange'' or ``C2'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described
in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the
Exchange. 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend Rule 6.15 (Obvious Error and
Catastrophic Errors). The text of the proposed rule change is available
on the Exchange's Web site (http://www.c2exchange.com/Legal/), 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
    Exchange Rule 6.15 (Obvious Error and Catastrophic Errors) governs
the nullification and adjustment of options transactions. The Exchange
is proposing to amend Rule 6.15(b)(2) to modify how the Exchange will
nullify or adjust an obvious error. The Exchange believes this proposal
will also harmonize its rules to more closely align with other options
exchanges.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See, e.g., International Securities Exchange, LLC (``ISE'')
Rule 720(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Under the current rule 6.15(b)(2)(A), the Exchange will adjust the
price of an erroneous transaction to the Theoretical Price when the
transaction is between two market-makers unless such parties agree to
adjust the transaction to a different price or bust the trade within
ten minutes of being notified by the Help Desk of the error. Pursuant
to current Exchange Rule 6.15(b)(2)(B), transactions involving at least
one non-C2 market-maker will be nullified unless both parties agree to
adjust the transaction within thirty minutes of being notified by the
Help Desk of the error.
    The Exchange is now proposing to amend Rule 6.15(b)(2) to modify
the Exchange obvious error procedures by nullifying trades for
transactions involving at least one non-broker-dealer customer and
adjusting all other trades between groups that do not fall into this
category including for example, a market maker or a broker-dealer.\4\
The Exchange believes that the proposal will protect investors by
eliminating some uncertainty in the current rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Exchange is also proposing to add text to Exchange Rule
1.1(fff) [sic] (Voluntary Professional) and Rule 1.1(ggg) [sic]
(Professional) to include a reference to Rule 6.15. These
designations are done on the Exchange on an order by order basis.
Thus, through reference, professional orders will be treated as
broker-dealer orders. In addition certain non-broker-dealer
customers may have their orders treated as broker-dealer orders
rather than as public customer orders for purposes of Rule 6.15.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    More specifically, the Exchange is first proposing to include all
transactions in which neither party is a non-broker-dealer customer in
the current Rule 6.15(b)(2)(A) instead of only including transactions
between C2 market-makers. Next, the Exchange is proposing to add a
provision to nullify all erroneous transactions between non-broker-
dealer customers unless both parties agree to an adjusted price within
thirty minutes.
    The Exchange believes that the proposal will limit obvious error
trade nullification only to transactions involving non-broker-dealer
customers. The Exchange believes that this approach will limit the
number of nullifications while assuring that non-broker-dealer
customers will not have their erroneous trades adjusted through their
limit price forcing such customer to spend (receive) more (less) money
on erroneous transactions. In addition, the proposed changes to the
rule will allow any non-professional customer orders to be subject to
professional standards if that customer decides to designate an order
as such.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See note 4 supra.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Non-broker-dealer customers are typically far less familiar with
the day-to-day trading of the markets and are also less likely to be
watching trading activity in a particular option throughout the day.
Therefore, given the potential for drastic market swings, the Exchange
believes that it is fair and reasonable and consistent with statutory
standards to change the procedure for obvious errors involving at least
one non-broker-dealer customer, and not for other market participants
so as not to expose these customers to any additional risk. In
addition, as stated above, these customers have the option of
indicating they would like the treatment of their orders as if they
originated from a professional.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed rule change is a fair way to address the issue of a
trade executing through a non-broker-dealer customer's limit order
price while balancing the competing interest of certainty that trades
stand versus dealing with the true errors. The proposed rule change
would continue to entail specific and objective procedures.
Furthermore, the proposed rule change more fairly balances the
potential windfall to one market participant against the potential
reconsidering of a trading decision under the guise of an error. The
Exchange also believes it is fair and reasonable to treat all
professional market participants equally, e.g. market-makers, broker-
dealers, etc.
    As stated above, the Exchange believes that non-broker-dealer
customers are far less familiar with the day-to-day trading of the
markets and are also less likely to be watching trading activity in a
particular option throughout the day. Therefore, the Exchange believes
that it is fair and reasonable and consistent with statutory standards
to change the procedure for obvious errors involving non-broker-

dealer customers, and not for other market participants so as not to
expose these customers to any additional risk. In addition, as stated
above, these customers have the option of indicating they would like
the treatment of their orders as if they were from professionals.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'') and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular,
the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\8\ Specifically, the
Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the
Section 6(b)(5) \9\ 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) \10\ requirement that the rules of an exchange not be
designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers,
brokers, or dealers.

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \10\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In particular, the proposal to nullify all erroneous transactions
in which at least one non-broker-dealer customer is a party to the
transaction and adjusting all other trades will help market
participants to better hedge risk associated with these potentially
erroneous transactions. By nullifying erroneous transactions which
involve a non-broker-dealer customer, the Exchange is assuring that
these non-professional customers will not receive a trade at a higher
(lower) price than a limit price placed upon the transaction. In
addition, the proposal is requiring trades in most circumstances to be
honored. The proposal also allows for all parties to nullify any
erroneous transaction as long as the two parties come to an agreement.
    The Exchange believes that adjusting all transactions that do not
involve a non-broker-dealer customer is just and equitable because
professional customers are more sophisticated and familiar with the day
to day trading swings. Though, as proposed, a professional that is not
a market-maker may be adjusted through its limit price, the Exchange
believes these professionals have adequate resources in place to manage
this adjustment and would prefer the certainty of the proposed changes
and to adjust these transactions (rather than nullify) to continue to
hedge their risk. In addition, the Exchange believes that market-makers
and other professionals are similarly situated, and, thus, it is
consistent to treat these groups in the same manner. Moreover, the
market benefits from the least amount of nullifications because parties
have more certainty about their executions. The Exchange also believes
that assessing an adjustment penalty will encourage professionals to
adjust and nullify a lesser amount of transactions which will benefit
the market as a whole. Thus, the Exchange believes that the treatment
of all professional orders in the same manner is consistent with the
Act as it will allow the market to suffer fewer disruptions, in the
form of adjustments or nullifications of trades after the fact, and
treats similarly situated groups, namely market-makers and other
professionals, in the same manner. The Exchange also notes that
aligning the Exchange with other options exchanges will ensure less
disruption to market participants as they will be treated consistently
across the markets.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See note 3 supra.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Though the proposal will treat different groups of market
participants differently, the Exchange believes that the proposal is
not unfairly discriminating because it treats similarly situated groups
in the same manner. More specifically, all professionals will be
treated in a similar manner while non-professional customers will also
be left with the choice to designate an order as professional, under
Exchange Rule 1.1 and thus have the ability to be treated in the same
manner as a professional. With this choice, all groups may be treated
in the same manner. In addition, the proposal creates a safeguard for a
non-professional customer that may not be as familiar with the
specifics of every day trading (and does not choose to be treated as a
professional) by nullifying all erroneous transactions in which they
are a party.
    The Exchange acknowledges that the proposal may allow for some
uncertainty to regarding whether a trade will be adjusted or nullified
depending upon the nature of the parties to the transaction. More
specifically, the contra party will not know the category of the other
party. Nonetheless, the Exchange believes the proposal continues to
promote just and equitable principles of trade and protect investors
and the public interest because it eliminates a more serious
uncertainty of price uncertainty which is inherent in the current
Exchange rule because the current rule takes the non-broker-dealer
customer's limit price into consideration while this proposal does not
as it will be nullified unless agreed upon by the two parties. The
Exchange also notes that this rule is substantially similar to another
option exchange.\12\ Thus, market participants will receive similar
treatment in the [sic] across the markets which eliminates confusion
and promotes just and equitable principles of trade.

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

    C2 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. Specifically, the proposal is
meant to eliminate market participant confusion along with help market
participants to better hedge the risk associated with erroneous options
trades. C2 believes that the proposed rule change will relieve any
burden on, or otherwise promote, competition because it creates less
uncertainty about the treatment of erroneous trades which may encourage
market participants to trade on the Exchange.

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.
