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

    The Exchange proposes to delete NYSE Rule 413 to correspond with
rule changes filed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
(``FINRA'') and approved by the Commission.\4\ The text of the proposed
rule change is available at the Exchange, the Commission's Public
Reference Room, and http://www.nyse.com.

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

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 the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The purpose of the proposed rule changes is to delete NYSE Rule 413
(Uniform Forms) to correspond with rule changes filed by FINRA and
approved by the Commission.
    Background:
    On July 30, 2007, FINRA's predecessor, the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. (``NASD''), and NYSE Regulation, Inc.
(``NYSER'') consolidated their member firm regulation operations into a
combined organization, FINRA. Pursuant to Rule 17d-2 under the Act,
NYSE, NYSER and FINRA entered into an agreement (the ``Agreement'') to
reduce regulatory duplication for their members by allocating to FINRA
certain regulatory responsibilities for certain NYSE rules and rule
interpretations (``FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules''). NYSE Amex LLC
(``NYSE Amex'') became a party to the Agreement effective December 15,
2008.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 56148 (July 26,
2007), 72 FR 42146 (August 1, 2007) (order approving the Agreement);
56147 (July 26, 2007), 72 FR 42166 (August 1, 2007) (SR-NASD-2007-
054) (order approving the incorporation of certain NYSE Rules as
``Common Rules''); and 60409 (July 30, 2009), 74 FR 39353 (August 6,
2009) (order approving the amended and restated Agreement, adding
NYSE Amex LLC as a party). Paragraph 2(b) of the Agreement sets
forth procedures regarding proposed changes by FINRA, NYSE or NYSE
Amex to the substance of any of the Common Rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As part of its effort to reduce regulatory duplication and relieve
firms that are members of FINRA, NYSE and NYSE Amex of conflicting or
unnecessary regulatory burdens, FINRA is now engaged in the process of
reviewing and amending the NASD and FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules in
order to create a consolidated FINRA rulebook.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ FINRA's rulebook currently has three sets of rules: (1) NASD
Rules, (2) FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules, and (3) consolidated FINRA
Rules. The FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rules apply only to those members
of FINRA that are also members of the NYSE (``Dual Members''), while
the consolidated FINRA Rules apply to all FINRA members. For more
information about the FINRA rulebook consolidation process, see
FINRA Information Notice, March 12, 2008.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Proposed Conforming Amendments to NYSE Rules:
    FINRA recently deleted FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rule 413 (Uniform
Forms), which required that each member had to adopt such uniform forms
as may be prescribed by the Exchange to facilitate the orderly flow of
transactions within the financial community.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 61542 (February 18,
2010), 75 FR 8768 (February 25, 2010).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In deleting FINRA Incorporated NYSE Rule 413, FINRA noted that
several provisions in its By-Laws required its members to provide
certain information in the manner and form prescribed by FINRA,
including membership applications, registration of branch offices,
registration of registered representatives and associated persons, and
termination of registered employees. FINRA also noted its proposal to
adopt a new Rule 4540 governing information and data reporting and
filing requirements.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 61542 (February 18,
2010), 75 FR 8768 (February 25, 2010).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In order to harmonize the NYSE Rules with the approved consolidated
FINRA Rules, the Exchange correspondingly proposes to delete NYSE Rule
413.\9\ As with FINRA, the Exchange has a number of rules that require
members and member organizations to provide certain information in the
manner and form prescribed by the Exchange: for example, NYSE Rules
301(b) and 311-

313 deal with membership applications; Rule 342(c) requires filing for
branch offices (Form BR); Rule 345, particularly 345.12, covers
applications for registered representatives (Form U-4); and Rules
312(a) and 345 require reporting termination of registered persons
(Form U-5). In addition, similar to proposed consolidated FINRA Rules
4530 and 4540, NYSE Rule 351 (see 351.10) requires members and member
organizations to provide the Exchange with certain regulatory and
disciplinary information, and Rules 341 and 416A require members and
member organizations to maintain current contact information with the
Exchange.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ NYSE Amex has submitted a companion rule filing amending its
rules in accordance with FINRA's rule changes. See SR-NYSEAmex-2010-
45.
    \10\ See FINRA Regulatory Notices 08-71 (November 28, 2008)
(discussing proposed FINRA Rule 4530) and 09-02 (January 6, 2009)
(discussing proposed FINRA Rule 4540). Per the rule harmonization
process, the Exchange will likely adopt versions of these rules once
they are filed with and approved by the Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Notwithstanding these other rules, NYSE Rule 416(a) broadly
provides that members and member organizations must ``submit to the
Exchange at such times as may be designated in such form and within
such time period as may be prescribed such information as the Exchange
deems essential for the protection of investors and the public
interest.'' \11\ Thus, deletion of NYSE Rule 413 will not limit the
Exchange's authority to require its members and member organizations to
provide information in a prescribed manner as needed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ FINRA has proposed to delete portions of NYSE Rule 416 as
part of its broader proposal to adopt new membership rules. See
FINRA Regulatory Notice 10-01 (January 4, 2010) (discussing proposed
FINRA Rules 1111-1190). Per the rule harmonization process, the
Exchange will likely adopt versions of these rules once they are
filed with and approved by the Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule changes are consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act,\12\ in general, and further the
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\13\ in particular, in that
they are designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule changes support the
objectives of the Act by providing greater harmonization between NYSE
Rules and FINRA Rules (including Common Rules) of similar purpose,
resulting in less burdensome and more efficient regulatory compliance
for Dual Members. To the extent the Exchange has proposed changes that
differ from the FINRA version of the Rules, such changes are technical
in nature and do not change the substance of the proposed NYSE Rules.

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.

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 Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \14\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\15\
Because the proposed rule change does not: (i) Significantly affect the
protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any
significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative prior to
30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as
the Commission may designate, if consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest, the proposed rule change has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \15\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \16\ normally
does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the
filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\17\ the Commission
may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest.\18\ The Commission
believes that waiver of the operative delay is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest because the proposed
rule change is merely deleting a rule that is duplicative of other
rules in its rulebook.\19\ The Exchange has represented that the
deletion of the rule will not limit the Exchange's authority to require
its members and member organizations to provide needed information.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \17\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \18\ See id. Pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) under the
Exchange Act, the Exchange is required to give the Commission
written notice of its intent to file a proposed rule change, along
with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at
least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed
rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission.
The Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
    \19\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay of
this proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's
impact on efficiency, competition and capital formation. 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD 2021-0194R1, dated October 8, 2021
(EASA AD 2021-0194R1), to correct an unsafe condition for all Airbus
Helicopters, formerly Eurocopter, Eurocopter France, and Aerospatiale,
Model AS 350 B, AS 350 BA, AS 350 BB, AS 350 B1, AS 350 B2, AS 350 B3,
AS 350 D, EC 130 B4, and EC 130 T2 helicopters. Model AS 350 BB
helicopters are not certificated by the FAA and are not included on the
U.S. type certificate data sheet; this AD therefore does not include
those helicopters in the applicability.
    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to all Airbus Helicopters
Model AS350B, AS350BA, AS350B1, AS350B2, AS350B3, AS350D, EC130B4, and
EC130T2 helicopters. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on
March 28, 2022 (87 FR 17206). The NPRM was prompted by the
identification of certain parts needing maintenance actions, including
life limits and maintenance tasks. The NPRM proposed to require
incorporating into maintenance records requirements (airworthiness
limitations), as specified in EASA AD 2021-0194R1.
    The FAA is issuing this AD to address the failure of certain parts,
which could result in the loss of control of the helicopter. See EASA
AD 2021-0194R1 for additional background information.

Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive

Comments

    The FAA received no comments on the NPRM or on the determination of
the costs.

Conclusion

    These helicopters have been approved by EASA and are approved for
operation in the United States. Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral
agreement with the European Union, EASA has notified the FAA about the
unsafe condition described in its AD. The FAA reviewed the relevant
data and determined that air safety requires adopting this AD as
proposed. Accordingly, the FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these helicopters. Except for minor editorial changes,
this AD is adopted as proposed in the NPRM.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA AD 2021-0194R1 requires certain actions and associated
thresholds and intervals, including life limits and maintenance tasks.
    This material is reasonably available because the interested
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by
the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

ADs Mandating Airworthiness Limitations

    The FAA has previously mandated airworthiness limitations by
mandating each airworthiness limitation task (e.g., inspections and
replacements (life limits)) as an AD requirement or issuing ADs that
require revising the airworthiness limitations section (ALS) of the
existing maintenance manual or instructions for continued airworthiness
to incorporate new or revised inspections and life limits. This AD,
however, requires operators to incorporate into maintenance records
required by 14 CFR 91.417(a)(2) or 135.439(a)(2), as applicable for
your helicopter, the requirements (airworthiness limitations) specified
in a civil aviation authority AD. The FAA does not intend this as a
substantive change. For these ADs, the ALS requirements for operators
are the same but are complied with differently. Requiring the
incorporation of the new ALS requirements into the maintenance records,
rather than requiring individual ALS tasks (e.g., repetitive
inspections and replacements), requires operators to record AD
compliance once after updating the maintenance records, rather than
after every time the ALS task is completed.
    In addition, paragraph (h) of this AD allows operators to
incorporate later approved revisions of the ALS document as specified
in the Ref. Publications section of EASA AD 2021-0194R1 without the
need for an alternative method of compliance (AMOC).

Differences Between This AD and the EASA AD

    Paragraph (1) of EASA AD 2021-0194R1 requires compliance with
actions and associated thresholds and intervals, including life limits
and maintenance tasks, from September 3, 2021, the effective date of
EASA AD 2021-0194, dated August 20, 2021 (EASA AD 2021-0194). Paragraph
(3) of EASA AD 2021-0194R1 requires incorporating the actions and
associated thresholds and intervals, including life limits and
maintenance tasks, into the approved maintenance program within 12
months after the effective date of EASA AD 2021-0194. This AD requires
incorporating into maintenance records requirements (airworthiness
limitations) within 30 days after the effective date of this AD.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 1,191 helicopters of U.S.
Registry. Labor rates are estimated at $85 per work-hour. Based on
these numbers, the FAA estimates the following costs to comply with
this AD. Incorporating requirements (airworthiness limitations) into
maintenance records requires about 2 work-hours for a cost of $170 per
helicopter and a cost of $202,470 for the U.S. fleet.

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.
    The FAA is 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

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will 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 that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, 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.

B. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

     1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the

information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
     2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
      Identify the document by docket ID number and other
identifying information (subject heading, Federal Register date and
page number).
      Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
      Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives
and substitute language for your requested changes.
      Describe any assumptions and provide any technical
information and/or data that you used.
      If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how
you arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
      Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns,
and suggest alternatives.
      Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the
use of profanity or personal threats.
      Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.

II. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    EPA is printing a summary of a pesticide petition received under
section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21
U.S.C. 346a, proposing the establishment or amendment of regulations in
40 CFR part 180 for residues of pesticide chemicals in or on various
food commodities. EPA has determined that this pesticide petition
contains data or information regarding the elements set forth in FFDCA
section 408(d)(2); however, EPA has not fully evaluated the sufficiency
of the submitted data at this time or whether the data support granting
of the pesticide petition. Additional data may be needed before EPA
rules on this pesticide petition.
    Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a summary of the petition included in
this notice, prepared by the petitioner along with a description of the
analytical method available for the detection and measurement of the
pesticide chemical residues is available on EPA's Electronic Docket at
http://www.regulations.gov/. To locate this information on the home

page of EPA's Electronic Docket, select ``Quick Search'' and type the
OPP docket ID number. Once the search has located the docket, clicking
on the ``Docket ID'' will bring up a list of all documents in the
docket for the pesticide including the petition summary.

New Exemption from Tolerance

    PP 5E7003. Stepan Company, 951 Bankhead Highway, Winder, GA 30680,
proposes to establish an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance
for residues of amine oxides in or on food commodities when used as an
inert ingredient. Because this petition is a request for an exemption
from the requirement of a tolerance without numerical limitations, no
analytical method is required.
