DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP17-471-000]

Paiute Pipeline Company; Notice of Schedule for Environmental
Review of the 2018 Expansion Project

    On July 5, 2017, Paiute Pipeline Company (Paiute) filed an
application in Docket No. CP17-471-000 requesting a Certificate of
Public Convenience and Necessity pursuant to Sections 7(b) and (c) of
the Natural Gas Act to abandon and construct certain natural gas
pipeline facilities. The proposed project is known as the 2018
Expansion Project (Project), and would provide 4,604 dekatherms per day
(Dth/d) of new transportation capacity, and shift an additional 1,031
Dth/d of current transportation capacity to a delivery point further
downstream.
    On July 19, 2017, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission or FERC) issued its Notice of Application for the Project.
Among other things, that notice alerted agencies issuing federal
authorizations of the requirement to complete all necessary reviews and
to reach a final decision on a request for a federal authorization
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Project. This instant notice
identifies the FERC staff's planned schedule for the completion of the
EA for the Project.

Schedule for Environmental Review

Issuance of EA--November 27, 2017.
90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline--February 25, 2018.
    If a schedule change becomes necessary, additional notice will be
provided so that the relevant agencies are kept informed of the
Project's progress.

Project Description

    The Project would involve construction and replacement of
approximately 8.46 miles of pipeline to upsize or loop four segments of
Paiute's Carson and South Tahoe Laterals in Douglas and Lyon Counties
and Carson City, Nevada. For the two segments where pipeline would be
replaced, portions of the existing pipeline would be abandoned in-place
and by removal.

Background

    On January 26, 2017, the Commission issued a Notice of Intent to
Prepare an Environmental Assessment for the Planned 2018 Expansion
Project and Request for Comments on Environmental Issues (NOI). The NOI
was issued during the pre-filing review of the Project in Docket No.
PF17-2 and was sent to affected landowners; federal, state, and local
government agencies; elected officials; environmental and public
interest groups; Native American tribes; other interested parties; and
local libraries and newspapers. In response to the NOI, the Commission
received a total of four comment letters from the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers, the Nevada State Clearinghouse, the Teamsters National
Pipeline Training Fund, and one individual. The scoping comments
pertained to permitting and consultation processes, information on
union pipeline contractors, potential effects on the Carson River and
other state of Nevada properties, air quality (dust), and stormwater
drainage.
    The Bureau of Land Management and the Consolidated Municipality of
Carson City, Nevada are cooperating agencies in the preparation of the
EA.

Additional Information

    In order to receive notification of the issuance of the EA and to
keep track of all formal issuances and submittals in specific dockets,
the Commission offers a free service called eSubscription. This can
reduce the amount of time you spend researching proceedings by
automatically providing you with notification of these filings,
document summaries, and direct links to the documents. Go to

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-59254; File No. SR-FINRA-2008-054]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, Inc.; Order Approving Proposed Rule Change To Adopt FINRA
Rule 5280 (Trading Ahead of Research Reports) in the Consolidated FINRA
Rulebook

January 15, 2009.

I. Introduction

    On October 29, 2008, the Financial Regulatory Authority, Inc.
(``FINRA'') (f/k/a National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
(``NASD'')) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``SEC''
or ``Commission''), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a
proposed rule change to adopt NASD Interpretive Material 2110-4
(Trading Ahead of Research Reports) as a FINRA rule, subject to certain
amendments. The proposed rule change was published for comment in the
Federal Register on November 6, 2008.\3\ The Commission received two
comment letters in response to the proposed rule change. This order
approves the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58905 (November 6,
2008), 73 FR 67237 (November 13, 2008) (SR-FINRA-2008-054) (notice).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change

    As part of the process of developing the new consolidated rulebook
(``Consolidated FINRA Rulebook''),\4\ FINRA proposed to adopt in the
Consolidated FINRA Rulebook NASD Interpretive Material (``IM'') 2110-4
(Trading Ahead of Research Reports) with certain modifications.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The current FINRA rulebook includes, in addition to FINRA
Rules, (1) NASD Rules and (2) rules incorporated from NYSE
(``Incorporated NYSE Rules'') (together, the NASD Rules and
Incorporated NYSE Rules are referred to as the ``Transitional
Rulebook''). While the NASD Rules generally apply to all FINRA
members, the Incorporated NYSE Rules apply only to those members of
FINRA that are also members of the NYSE (``Dual Members''). For more
information about the rulebook consolidation process, see FINRA
Information Notice, March 12, 2008 (Rulebook Consolidation Process).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    IM-2110-4 states that it is conduct inconsistent with just and
equitable principles of trade for a member to establish or adjust an
inventory position in an exchange-listed security traded over-the-
counter or a derivative of such security in anticipation of the
issuance of a research report on that security. The IM further
recommends--but does not require--that firms establish policies and
procedures to develop and implement effective internal controls to
isolate specific information within research and other relevant
departments so as to prevent the trading department from utilizing
advance knowledge of the issuance of research reports. Those members
that choose not to establish such procedures bear the burden to show
that changes in inventory positions in advance of research reports were
not purposeful.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Incorporated NYSE Rule Interpretation 401/01 includes
aspects similar to IM-2110-4. FINRA deleted that Interpretation as
part of an earlier filing to transfer NASD Rule 2110 (Standards of
Commercial Honor and Principles of Trade) and 2120 (Use of
Manipulative, Deceptive or Other Fraudulent Devices) to the
Consolidated FINRA Rulebook, as the conduct addressed in the
Interpretation is subsumed by those rules. See Securities Exchange
Act Release No. 58643 (September 24, 2008) 73 FR 57174 (October 1,
2008) (Order Approving SR-FINRA-2008-028).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed rule change would amend the IM in three respects.
First, it would extend the application of the IM to cover inventory
positions with respect to any security--including debt--or derivative
thereof, irrespective of whether the security is exchange-listed. FINRA
believes the purpose of the IM--to prevent the manipulation of the
supply of a security for the benefit of a firm and to the detriment of
investors--applies equally to inventory positions in non-exchange-
listed securities.
    Second, the proposed rule change would apply the rule only to
circumstances where a member establishes or adjusts its inventory based
on non-public advance knowledge of the content or timing of a research
report in that security. As such, it would not be a violation of the
rule for a member to increase or decrease inventory of a security based
on publicly available information regarding the likely timing of a
research report. By way of example, when a member's trading desk
adjusts an inventory position in anticipation of a research report
because of a publicly discernible trend that a member's report tends to
follow an earnings announcement, the prohibitions of the rule would not
be triggered. However, having knowledge of a publicly discernible trend
is not a viable alternative basis for the member's trading desk to
adjust its inventory position when the trading desk is also the
recipient of non-public advance knowledge of the content or timing of a
research report in that security.
    Finally, the proposal would eliminate the option to establish
internal controls to manage the flow of information between the
research and trading departments and instead mandate that firms
establish policies and procedures reasonably designed to restrict or
limit the information flow between research department personnel, or
other persons with knowledge of the content or timing of a research
report, and trading department personnel, so as to prevent trading
department personnel from utilizing non-public advance knowledge of the
issuance or content of a research report for the benefit of the member
or any other person.
    FINRA believes that a member should have an affirmative obligation
to manage conflicts of interest in its trading of securities. Moreover,
this approach is more consistent with existing and proposed rules
regarding supervision and the requirements of NASD Rule 2711 and NYSE
Rule 472 to eliminate conflicts involving the publication and
distribution of research reports.

III. Comments

    The SEC received two comment letters.\6\ The commenters' concerns,
as well as FINRA's responses are discussed below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Letter from Amal Aly, Managing Director and Associate
General Counsel, Securities Industry and Financial Markets
Association (``SIFMA''), December 5, 2008; Letter from Peter C.
Chepucavage, General Counsel, Plexus Consulting, LLC, January 12,
2009.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The first comment letter expressed general support for the proposed
rule change, but requested a few clarifications. First, the commenter
sought clarification that the term ``research report'' in the proposed
rule change has the same definition as that in NASD Rule 2711(a)(9).
The latter defines research report as ``any written (including
electronic) communication that includes an analysis of equity
securities of individual companies or industries, and that provides
information sufficient upon which to base an investment decision.''
Rule 2711(a) also includes several exceptions to the definition, among
them communications limited to

commentaries on economic, political or market conditions.
    FINRA responded that the term ``research report'' in the proposed
rule change is intended to be much broader than that in NASD Rule
2711(a)(9) and is meant to cover adjustments to inventory positions
based on non-public knowledge of the content or timing of both debt and
equity research.\7\ The proposed rule change differs in objective from
NASD Rule 2711(a)(9) and is intended to ``enhance investor protection
and market integrity by deterring member firms from improperly
accumulating or otherwise altering investor positions in securities''
based on non-public advance knowledge of the content or timing of a
research report in those securities. FINRA interprets the term research
report in proposed FINRA Rule 5280 to cover any written information
from the research department that a reasonable person would expect to
result in a transaction based on that information. Thus, to the extent
a reasonable person would expect that a communication containing market
commentary would result in a transaction in a particular security or
securities, a member could not establish or adjust its inventory in
those securities based on non-public advance knowledge of that
communication or the timing of its public release. Based on these
reasons, FINRA declined the commenter's additional request that the
proposal be narrowed to cover only those actions taken by a member firm
to adjust its inventory based upon advance non-public knowledge of
material investment conclusions, such as ratings or price targets.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Letter from Philip Shaikun, Associate Vice President and
Associate General Counsel, FINRA, January 2, 2008.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Second, the commenter requested that FINRA confirm that the
requirement in subparagraph (b) of the proposal to establish, maintain
and enforce certain policies and procedures is not meant to (1) limit
or restrict communications between sales and trading personnel and
research personnel concerning an analyst's published views or (2) to
require that such communications must be pre-cleared or monitored.
    FINRA responded that the proposed rule sets forth an unambiguous
supervision standard that ``a member must establish, maintain and
enforce policies and procedures reasonably designed to restrict or
limit the information flow between research department personnel, or
others with knowledge of the content or timing of a research report,
and trading department personnel, so as to prevent trading department
personnel from utilizing non-public advance knowledge of the issuance
or content of a research report for the benefit of the member or any
other person.'' FINRA views the supervisory standard in the proposal as
purposefully flexible, to allow firms to tailor their policies and
procedures to their size, structure, business model and compliance
system. As such any number of specific policies and procedures may be
appropriate to satisfy the standard. Thus, absent ambiguity in the
standard, FINRA believes it inappropriate to opine on the adequacy of
one or more elements of potentially many approaches that could satisfy
the rule's supervision requirement.
    The second comment letter expressed concern that while the proposed
rule addresses that a broker-dealer cannot trade ahead of its own
research report, the broker-dealer's customers and potential customers
should also be so prohibited and that all customers and potential
customers should get the research report at the same time. Further, the
commenter indicated that the issue of whether the public should
simultaneously get such reports should be explored and addressed. Per
discussion, FINRA noted that the commenter's concerns are more
appropriate to and are addressed in FINRA's proposed ``Research
Registration and Conflict of Interest Rules.'' \8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See, FINRA NTM 08-55, October 2008.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Discussion and Findings

    After careful review of the proposed rule change, the comments and
FINRA's response to the comments, the Commission finds that the
proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the Act,
and the rules and regulations thereunder that are applicable to a
national securities association.\9\ In particular, the Commission
believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the provisions of
Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act,\10\ which requires, among other things
that FINRA rules must be designed to prevent fraudulent and
manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and questionable
principles of trade, and, in general, to protect investors and the
public interest. The Commission believes that the proposed rule change
will protect the investing public by preventing firms from utilizing
non-public advance knowledge of the timing or content of a research
report to benefit its own trading to the detriment of its customers.
Moreover, the Commission believes the proposed rule change further
would clarify and streamline NASD IM-2110-4 for adoption as a FINRA
Rule in the Consolidated FINRA Rulebook.\11\ NASD IM-2110-4 has
previously been found to meet the statutory requirements, and FINRA
believes the rule has since proven effective in achieving statutory
mandates.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ In approving this proposal, the Commission has considered
the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition and capital
formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(6).
    \11\ See supra note 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

V. Conclusion

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\12\ that the proposed rule change (SR-FINRA-2008-054) be, and
hereby is, approved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).

    For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets,
pursuant to delegated authority.\13\

    k. Project Description: The Mongaup Falls Project includes the
Mongaup Falls Development and the Black Brook Development. The Black
Brook Development has been permanently out of service since 1984, when
portions of the penstock, stoplogs, and flashboards were removed.
    The Mongaup Fall Development consists of: (1) A reservoir with a
gross storage capacity of 1,782 acre-feet and a surface area of 133
acres; (2) a 155-foot-long by 40-foot-high, ungated, concrete gravity
spillway with 4-foot, 10-inch-high flashboards; (2) an 83-foot-long, by
25-foot, 4-inch-high earth dam section with a concrete core wall along
the right abutment; (3) a 125-foot-long, 127-foot-high concrete
retaining wall along the left abutment; (4) a 11-foot-high, 22-foot-
square intake and gatehouse; (5) a 250-foot-long by 4.5-foot-high
earthen closure dike; (6) a 6,650-foot-long bypassed reach; (7) a
2,650-foot-long, 8-foot-diameter wood-stave penstock; (8) a 26-foot-
diameter, 106-foot-high steel surge tank; (9) a 9-foot-diameter steel
manifold branching into four 5-foot-diameter steel penstocks; (10) a
14-foot-wide by 32-foot-high inclined trashracks with 1.7-inch bar
clear spacing; (11) a 90-foot-long by 25-foot, 2-inch-wide by 33-foot-
high reinforced concrete powerhouse containing four 1-megawatt
vertical-axis turbines; and (12) a 100-foot-long, 2.3-kilovolt
underground transmission line. The project generates an average of
10,860 megawatt-hours annually. Eagle Creek proposes to continue to
operate the project in a peaking mode.
    The Black Brook Development consists of a 70-foot-long dam with a
34-foot-long concrete spillway section and 10-foot-long stoplog
section. The stoplog section consists of a 2-foot-wide concrete pier
that divides the 8-foot-long stoplog section from the spillway. The
concrete spillway is approximately 10-foot-high from the base to the
crest and is keyed into bedrock with a 3-foot by 3-foot keyway. Prior
to removal of the penstock, pond control was accomplished with an
8[hyphen]foot[hyphen]wide stoplog section and
34[hyphen]foot[hyphen]wide flashboard section, each erected to a height
of 5 feet above the dam crest. The failure of the penstock in 1984,
resulted in the removal of the 8-foot-wide, 5-foot-high stoplog section
on the right side of the dam and the 5-foot-high flashboards.
Currently, the Black Brook Development is a run-of-river, uncontrolled
spillway with a crest elevation of 943 feet National Geodetic Vertical
Datum of 1929 (NGVD29) and a dam/spillway toe elevation of
approximately 930-933 feet NGVD29 (including the 3-foot by 3-foot
keyway).

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

[Docket No. NHTSA-2017-0060]

Decision That Certain Nonconforming Motor Vehicles Are Eligible
for Importation

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

ACTION: Grant of petitions.

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

SUMMARY: This document announces decisions by NHTSA that certain motor
vehicles not originally manufactured to comply with all applicable
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) are eligible for
importation into the United States because they are substantially
similar to vehicles originally manufactured for sale in the United
States and certified by their manufacturers as complying with the
safety standards, and they are capable of being readily altered to
conform to the standards or because they have safety features that
comply with, or are capable of being altered to comply with, all
applicable FMVSS.

DATES: These decisions became effective on the dates specified in Annex
A.

ADDRESSES: For further information, contact Mr. George Stevens, Office
of Vehicle Safety Compliance, NHTSA<PHONE_NUMBER>).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    Under 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A), a motor vehicle that was not
originally manufactured to conform to all applicable FMVSS shall be
refused admission into the United States unless NHTSA has decided that
the motor vehicle is substantially similar to a motor vehicle
originally manufactured for importation into and/or sale in the United
States, certified under 49 U.S.C. 30115, and of the same model year as
the model of the motor vehicle to be compared, and is capable of being
readily altered to conform to all applicable FMVSS.
    Where there is no substantially similar U.S.-certified motor
vehicle, 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(B) permits a nonconforming motor vehicle
to be admitted into the United States if its safety features comply
with, or are capable of being altered to comply with, all applicable
FMVSS based on destructive test data or such other evidence as NHTSA
decides to be adequate.
    Petitions for eligibility decisions may be submitted by either
manufacturers or importers who have registered with NHTSA pursuant to
49 CFR part 592. As specified in 49 CFR part 593.7, NHTSA publishes
notice in the Federal Register of each petition that it receives, and
affords interested persons an opportunity to comment on the petition.
At the close of the comment period, NHTSA decides, on the basis of the
petition and any comments that it has received, whether the vehicle is
eligible for importation. The agency then publishes this decision in
the Federal Register.
    NHTSA received petitions from registered importers to decide
whether the vehicles listed in Annex A to this notice are eligible for
importation into the United States. To afford an opportunity for public
comment, NHTSA published notice of these petitions as specified in
Annex A. The reader is referred to those notices for a thorough
description of the petitions.
    Comments: No substantive comments were received in response to the
petitions identified in Appendix A.
    Conclusions: For each vehicle identified in Appendix A, NHTSA has
reviewed the respective petition and concluded that the vehicle is
either substantially similar to its U.S. certified counterpart and
capable of being readily altered to conform to all applicable FMVSS, or
that it is capable of being altered to conform to conform to all
applicable FMVSS.
    NHTSA has also concluded that each RI who imports and modifies a
vehicle under one of the subject vehicle eligibility numbers for the
first time must include in the statement of conformity and associated
documents (``conformity package'') it submits to the NHTSA under 49 CFR
part 592.6(d) explicit proof to confirm that the vehicle was, where
applicable, originally manufactured to conform to, or was successfully
altered to conform to, FMVSS No. 101 Controls and Displays, FMVSS No.
138, Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems, FMVSS No. 208, Occupant Crash
Protection, and FMVSS No. 301 Fuel System Integrity. This proof must
include detailed descriptions of all modifications made, including a
detailed description of systems in place (if any) on the vehicle as
delivered to the RI, and a similarly detailed description of
alterations made to the vehicle and said systems, including photographs
of all required labeling. The descriptions must also include parts
assembly diagrams and associated part numbers for all components that
were removed from or installed in the vehicle, an accounting of any
computer programming modifications undertaken and a

description of how compliance was verified after alteration of the
vehicle.
    NHTSA Decision: Accordingly, on the basis of the foregoing, NHTSA
hereby decides that each motor vehicle listed in Annex A to this
notice, which was not originally manufactured to comply with all
applicable FMVSS, is either substantially similar to a motor vehicle
manufactured for importation into and/or sale in the United States, and
certified under 49 U.S.C. 30115, as specified in Annex A, and is
capable of being readily altered to conform to all applicable FMVSS or
has safety features that comply with, or are capable of being altered
to comply with, all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
    Vehicle Eligibility Number for Subject Vehicles: The importer of a
vehicle admissible under any final decision must indicate on the form
HS-7 accompanying entry the appropriate vehicle eligibility number
indicating that the vehicle is eligible for entry. Vehicle eligibility
numbers assigned to vehicles admissible under this decision are
specified in Annex A.

    Authority:  49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A), (a)(1)(B) and (b)(1); 49
CFR 593.7; delegations of authority at 49 CFR 1.95 and 501.8.

Materials Methods/Results

	In earlier developmental toxicity studies in rabbits, lethality of the
dams was observed after multiple exposures.  While deemed unlikely, the
outcome of lethality from a single exposure was not known.  This
experiment was designed to address that question.

	New Zealand White rabbits were exposed to target concentrations of 0;
50,000; and 100,000 ppm for 1 hour and observed for 14 days post
exposure.  Analytical concentrations for male/female were 0/0;
45,000/47,000; and 100,000/102,000 respectively.  Five males and 6
pregnant females were exposed at each dose.  Five non-pregnant females
were exposed at 0 and 100,000 ppm.

	No mortality was observed for any condition of the experiment.  No
differences in body weight over the experiment, gross pathology, and
histopathology (control and high dose) of heart, kidney, liver and lung
were observed.

	Metabolites were analyzed from urine samples taken at 12 hour intervals
after exposure up to 48 hours post-exposure.  Metabolite patterns were
similar in all exposed groups except an unidentified metabolite
approximately twice as much in females (both groups) as males.

	In conclusion, a single exposure of pregnant rabbits to high levels of
HFO-1234yf (100,000 ppm) will not cause lethality, changes in body
weight, or pathology and histopathology of major organs .  The cause of
lethality in dams exposed multiple time in developmental toxicity
studies remains unknown.
