SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-84449; File No. SR-Phlx-2018-64]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Nasdaq PHLX LLC; Notice of Filing
and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Amend Section
(a)(i)(D) of Rule 1012

October 18, 2018.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on October 17, 2018, Nasdaq PHLX LLC (``Exchange'') filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission

(``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 Section (a)(i)(D) of Rule 1012,
Series of Options Open for Trading, to permit the listing and trading
of up to ten expiration months for long term options on the
SPDR[supreg] S&P 500[supreg] exchange-traded fund (the ``SPY ETF'').
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
website at http://nasdaqphlx.cchwallstreet.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 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 the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    Section (a)(i)(D) of Rule 1012 currently provides that the Exchange
may list, with respect to any class of stock or Exchange-Traded Fund
Share options series, options having from twelve up to thirty-nine
months from the time they are listed (``LEAPS'') until expiration.
There may be up to six expiration months.\3\ The Exchange proposes to
amend Section (a)(i)(D) of Rule 1012 to permit up to ten LEAPS
expiration months for options on the SPDR[supreg] S&P 500[supreg]
exchange-traded fund (``SPY'') in response to customer demand.\4\ The
proposal will add liquidity to the SPY options market by allowing
market participants to hedge risks relating to SPY positions over a
longer time period with a known and limited cost.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Strike price interval, bid/ask differential and continuity
rules shall not apply to such options series until the time to
expiration is less than nine months.
    \4\ In contrast to Section (a)(i)(D) of Rule 1012, Exchange Rule
1101A(b)(iii) which applies to index options permits to the Exchange
to list LEAPS on any class of stock index options, adding up to ten
expiration months. The Exchange seeks to list ten expiration months
of LEAPS on the SPY ETF, just as it now may list ten LEAPS
expiration months on index options, in order to provide investors
with a wider choice of investments.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The SPY options market today is characterized by its tremendous
daily and annual liquidity. As a consequence the Exchange believes that
the listing of additional SPY LEAPS expiration months would be well
received by investors. This proposal to expand the number of permitted
SPY long-term expiration months would not apply to LEAPS on any other
class of stock or Exchange-Traded Fund Share.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Historically, SPY is the largest and most actively traded
ETF in the United States as measured by its assets under management
and the value of shares traded.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section
6(b) of the Act,\6\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,\7\ in particular, in that it is designed 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,
by offering market participants additional LEAPS on SPY options for
their investment and risk management purposes. The proposal is intended
simply to provide additional trading opportunities which have been
requested by customers, thereby facilitating transactions in options
and contributing to the protection of investors and the maintenance of
fair and orderly markets. The proposed rule change responds to the
continuing needs of market participants, particularly portfolio
managers and other institutional customers, by providing protection
from long-term market moves and by offering an alternative to hedging
portfolios with futures positions or off-exchange customized derivative
instruments.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Rule 1012 has permitted up to six expiration months in LEAPS since
1991, when the Exchange increased the number of permissible expiration
months from four to six. In approving the increase to six expiration
months, the Commission stated that it did not believe that increasing
the number of expiration months to six would cause, by itself, a
proliferation of expiration months. The Commission also required that
the Exchange monitor the volume of additional options series listed as
a result of the rule change, and the effect on the Exchange's system
capacity and quotation dissemination displays.\8\ The Exchange believes
that the addition today of four additional expiration months for SPY
LEAPS likewise does not represent a proliferation of expiration months,
but is instead a very modest expansion of LEAPS options in response to
stated customer demand. Significantly, the proposal would feature new
LEAPS expiration months in only a single class of options that are very
liquid and heavily traded, as discussed above. Additionally, the
Exchange notes by way of precedent that ten expiration months are
already permitted for stock index LEAPS options. Further, the Exchange
has the necessary systems capacity to support the new SPY expiration
months.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 29103 (April 18,
1991), 56 FR 19132 (April 25, 1991) (approving SR-Phlx-91-18).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposal merely provides
investors additional investment and risk management opportunities by
providing flexibility to the Exchange to list additional long term
options expiration series, expanding the number of SPY LEAPS offered on
the Exchange from six expiration months to ten expiration months.

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

    No written comments were either solicited or received.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    Because the foregoing 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 for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \9\ and

subparagraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b-4 thereunder.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
requires a self-regulatory organization to give the Commission
written notice of its intent to file 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend 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. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule should be approved or disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

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:

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

General Comment:Dear Mr. Zeller:

I am writing as an individual consumer to request an extension of the comment period for the Food and Drug Administration's ("FDA") Proposed Rule Deeming Tobacco Products to be Subject to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Family Smoking and Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (the "Proposed Rule") published at 79 Fed. Reg. 23,142 and Federal Register No. 2014-09491. On behalf of myself, I am requesting that the comment period for the Proposed Rule be extended by the FDA for an additional 105 days, from its current 75-day period, to 180 days.

The Proposed Rule raises a number of significant issues and questions that are important and relevant to me, as a consumer of products that are proposed for regulation under the Proposed Rule. I want to provide my thoughts and comments on many of these issues, but my time to devote to researching and providing thoughtful comments on these important questions is limited. I know that the FDA took many years to even come up with the Proposed Rule, so I do not think it is at all unreasonable to allow the public a mere six months to comment on it. This is our only opportunity, as consumers, to provide our feedback.

I feel very strongly about e-cigarettes as an alternative to combustible cigarettes. Quite simply, I firmly believe that they have helped me be a healthier, more productive member of society. I wish to provide you with my personal story, as well as science- and evidence-based responses to your questions so that you can take my comment into account. I realize that the FDA has the authority under 21 CFR 10.40 to extend this time frame and I would therefore ask that you do so here, so that all stakeholders have the opportunity to provide their comments on this proposed regulation.

I appreciate your consideration of my request and am happy to discuss this issue with you further.

[Docket No. CP19-118-000]

Notice of Revised Schedule for Environmental Review of the Trans-
Foreland Pipeline Company, LLC Kenai LNG Cool Down Project

    This notice identifies the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
staff's revised schedule for the completion of the environmental
assessment (EA) for Trans-Foreland Pipeline Company, LLC's (Trans-
Foreland) Kenai LNG Cool Down Project. The first notice of schedule,
issued on June 19, 2019, identified December 13, 2019 as the EA
issuance date. In its October 2019 response to Commission staff's data
requests, Trans-Foreland states that it will not file certain
information until January 2020. Further, Commission staff also issued a
follow-up data request to Trans-Foreland on December 9, 2019, requiring
Trans-Foreland to clarify certain critical and complex information and
address data gaps that were not addressed by Trans-Foreland in previous
responses to staff data requests. As a result of Trans-Foreland's
representations that this critical data will not be filed until
sometime in January and the need for Commission staff and cooperating
agencies to review this information, Commission staff has revised the
schedule for issuance of the EA. The revised schedule for the EA is
based upon Trans-Foreland providing complete responses to outstanding
data requests in the timeframes it has identified and as requested in
the December 9 data request.

Schedule for Environmental Review

Issuance of the EA April 24, 2020
90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline July 23, 2020

    If a schedule change becomes necessary, an additional notice will
be provided so that the relevant agencies are kept informed of the
project's progress.

BILLING CODE 6717-01-P


PART A OF THE SUPPORTING STATEMENT FOR STANDARD FORM 83 STATIONARY COMBUSTION TURBINES 1. IDENTIFICATION OF THE INFORMATION COLLECTION ( a) Title of the Information Collection " Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements for Standards of Performance for Stationary Combustion Turbines." ICR 2177.01 ( b) Short Characterization This supporting statement addresses information collection activities that would be imposed by the proposed " Standards of Performance for Stationary Combustion Turbines," 40 CFR part 60, subpart KKKK. These standards fulfill the requirements of section 111 of the Clean Air Act ( CAA) as amended in 1990, which requires the EPA to promulgate standards for stationary combustion turbines.

The information collection activities in this ICR include: stack tests, continuous monitoring, one time and periodic reports, and the maintenance of records. The information collection activities will enable the EPA to determine initial and continuous compliance with emission standards for the regulated pollutants.

2. NEED FOR AND USE OF THE COLLECTION ( a) Need/ Authority for the Collection The EPA is required under section 111 of the CAA to establish standards of performance for new stationary sources that reflect the application of the best technological system of continuous emissions reduction which ( taking into consideration 2 the cost of achieving such emissions reduction, or any nonair quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrator determines has been adequately demonstrated. The Agency refers to this charge as selecting the best demonstrated technology ( BDT). Section 111 also requires that the Administrator review and, if appropriate, revise such standards every four years.

In addition, Section 114( a) States that:

. . . the Administrator may require any owner or operator subject to any requirement of this Act to ( A) establish and maintain such records; ( B) make such reports; ( C) install, use, and maintain such monitoring equipment or methods ( in accordance with such methods at such locations, at such intervals, and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe); ( D) sample such emissions; ( E) keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; ( F) submit compliance certifications; and ( G) provide such other information as he may reasonably require.

Certain reports are necessary to enable the Administrator to identify stationary combustion turbines subject to the regulation and to determine if the standards are being achieved.

( b) Practical Utility/ Users of the Data The information will be used by the EPA to identify sources subject to the new source performance standards ( NSPS) and ensure that the emission standards are being met. Records and reports are necessary to enable the EPA to identify facilities that may not be in compliance with the standards. Based on reported information, EPA will decide which facilities should be inspected and what records or units should be inspected at the facilities. The records that facilities maintain will indicate to EPA whether facility personnel are operating and maintaining the equipment properly. 3 3. NONDUPLICATION, CONSULTATIONS, AND OTHER COLLECTION CRITERIA ( a) Nonduplication Duplication in the reporting of stationary combustion turbine information is not anticipated. If the standard has not been delegated, the information is sent to the appropriate EPA Regional Office. Otherwise, the information is sent directly to the delegated State or local agency. If a State or local agency has adopted their own similar regulation to implement the Federal regulation, a copy of the report submitted to the State or local agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required by the Federal standard. Therefore, no duplication exists.

( b) Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB A public notice of this collection will be provided in the notice of proposed rulemaking for the NSPS.

( c) Consultations The public will have the opportunity to review and comment on the proposed NSPS and the ICR during the specified comment period.

( d) Effects of Less Frequent Data Collection The frequency of the data collection requirements was chosen by the EPA to provide reasonable assurance that a facility is in compliance with the standard.

Less frequent collection could result in long term exceedances of the applicable emission standards.

( e) General Guidelines 4 None of the reporting or recordkeeping requirements contained in the proposed NSPS for stationary combustion turbines violate any of the regulations established by OMB in CFR 1320.5.

( f) Confidentiality The type of data that would be required is principally emissions data and would not be confidential. If any information is submitted to the EPA for which a claim of confidentiality is made, the information would be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B  Confidentiality of Business Information.

( g) Sensitive Questions This section is not applicable because the ICR does not involve matters of a sensitive nature.

4. THE RESPONDENTS AND THE INFORMATION REQUESTED ( a) Respondents/ NAICS Codes Respondents are owners or operators of new, modified or reconstructed stationary combustion turbines that have a manufacturer's nameplate rating greater than or equal to 1 megawatt ( MW). These standards affect any industry, State, local, or tribal government using a stationary combustion turbine as defined in the regulation. The North American Industrial Classification System ( NAICS) codes for facilities using stationary combustion turbines affected by the regulation include: 2211 ( Electric Power Generation,

Transmission, or Distribution), 486210 ( Pipeline Transportation of Natural Gas), 211111 5 ( Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas Production), 2111112 ( Natural Gas Liquids Producers), and 221 ( Utilities).

( b) Information Requested ( i) Data Items: Attachment 1, Source Data and Information Requirements,

summarizes the recordkeeping and reporting requirements of this regulation.

( ii) Respondent Activities: The respondent activities required by the regulation are provided under the first column of Tables 1 through 3, introduced in section 6( a).

( iii) Summary of Requirements: The information collection activities in this ICR include stack tests, continuous emission monitoring, fuel sampling, one time and periodic reports, and the maintenance of records. The rule requires facilities to meet an emission limitation for NOx. Initial compliance is demonstrated through performance testing. To demonstrate continuing compliance, sources may conduct annual stack testing. As an alternative to continuous monitoring, sources may continuously monitor emissions, operating parameters, or water or steam to fuel ratio. The rule also requires facilities to meet an emission limitation for SO 2. Compliance with the SO 2 limit is demonstrated either by monitoring the total sulfur content of the fuel, or providing a contract or tariff sheet showing that the fuel has a sulfur content below 300 ppmw.

Following the initial compliance demonstration, the owner or operator must submit an initial notification of compliance. Excess emissions and monitoring system performance reports must be submitted semiannually to document whether any deviations from the emission limitations occurred. Facilities must submit notifications for construction or reconstruction, actual startup, demonstration of continuous emission 6 monitoring systems ( CEMS), and performance tests. Stationary combustion turbines that meet certain requirements will not have to follow any of the requirements of the regulation, with the exception that they will have to submit a one time initial notification.

5. THE INFORMATION COLLECTED  AGENCY ACTIVITIES,

COLLECTION METHODOLOGY, AND INFORMATION MANAGEMENT ( a) Agency Activities A list of Agency activities for the first 3 years following the effective date of the standard is provided in Tables 4 through 6, which are introduced in section 6( c).

( b) Collection Methodology and Management Data obtained during periodic visits by EPA personnel, from records maintained by the respondents, and from information provided in semiannual reports will be tabulated and published for internal EPA use in compliance and enforcement programs. Records of measurements, maintenance, reports, and records must be retained for two years following the date of the item.

( c) Small Entity Flexibility Minimizing the information collection burden for all sizes of organizations is a continuing effort for the EPA. The Stationary Combustion Turbine NSPS is applicable only to stationary combustion turbines greater than or equal to 1 MW. We do not believe that the NSPS will have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities.

Furthermore, although the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for small and large businesses, these requirements are considered the minimum needed to 7 ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot be reduced further for small businesses.

( d) Collection Schedule A notification of the date that construction or reconstruction of the source begins must be submitted no later than 30 days after the date construction or reconstruction commences. A notification of the actual date of initial startup must be submitted within 15 days after startup. A notification of the date of demonstration of the CEMS performance must be submitted not less than 30 days prior to the demonstration. Sources must submit a notification of a performance test at least 30 days prior to the date of the test, and submit a written report of the results of the performance test within 60 days after achieving the maximum production rate at which the facility will be operated, but not later than 180 days after initial startup of the facility. Semiannual excess emissions and monitoring systems performance reports must be submitted by the 30th day following the end of each 6 month period.

6. ESTIMATING THE BURDEN AND COST OF THE COLLECTION ( a) Estimating Respondent Burden The stationary combustion turbine NSPS is estimated to affect approximately 71 new turbines in each of the next 3 years, or a total of 213 turbines over 3 years. It is estimated that 29 turbines per year will be dual fuel, 2 will fire diesel fuel only, and the remaining 40 will fire natural gas only. Only turbines firing diesel fuel are expected to perform fuel sampling.

Of the 71 new turbines each year, it is estimated that 48 will conduct annual stack 8 testing in order to demonstrate compliance with the NOx emission limitation. We believe that the remaining 23 turbines will demonstrate continuing compliance through the use of NOx CEMS. These turbines already use NOx CEMS to monitor their emissions due to requirements from rules such as PSD/ NSR, the Acid Rain program, or State rules, and will therefore not incur any additional cost for monitoring equipment as a result of the proposed NSPS.

( b) Estimating Respondent Costs The information collection activities for sources subject to these requirements are presented in Tables 1 through 3. The total cost for each respondent activity includes labor costs. Labor rates, on a per hour basis, are taken from the Bureau of Labor Statistics web site ( http:// www. bls. gov/ news. release/ ecec. toc. htm) as posted for June 2004. The base labor rates are $ 28.20 for technical/ professional personnel, $ 32.12 for management, and $ 13.91 for clerical. The total compensation rate is $ 38.82 for technical/ professional personnel, $ 45.29 for managerial, and $ 19.92 for clerical. This accounts for paid leave,

insurance, etc. The compensation rates were then adjusted by an overhead and profit rate of 167 percent. The final total wage rates are $ 65 for technical/ professional personnel,

$ 76 for management, and $ 33 for clerical. Costs for performance tests were estimated through contact with the testing industry. A stack testing company provided an estimated cost for a NOx performance test on a single turbine of $ 4,000 for turbines firing one fuel and $ 7,000 for turbines firing two fuels. 9 TABLE 1.

Costs are estimated using the following hourly rates: technical at $ 65, management at $ 76 and clerical at $ 33. 12 ( c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost Because the information collection requirements were developed as an incidental part of standards development, no costs can be attributed to the development of the information collection requirements. Because reporting and recordkeeping requirements on the part of the respondents are required under section 111 of the CAA, no operational costs will be incurred by the Federal government. Examination of records to be maintained by the respondents would occur incidentally as part of the periodic inspection of sources that is part of the EPA's overall compliance and enforcement program and, therefore, is not attributable to the ICR.

The Agency burden and cost estimates include only those items where the government would incur additional costs as a result of the information collection. These costs include user costs associated with the review and analysis of the reported information. These are presented in Tables 4 through 6.

The hourly burden for review of reports was estimated through discussion with personnel from local agencies who review these types of reports. Labor rates for Federal employees are based on the January 2005, Office of Personnel Management pay rates for General Schedule employees ( see http:// www. opm. gov/ oca/ 05tables/ html/ gs_ h. asp). The pay rates were multiplied by the standard government benefits multiplication factor of 1.6. The resulting average hourly labor costs are $ 47 for technical personnel, $ 78 for management, and $ 27 for clerical.

( d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs The respondent universe was estimated through existing and projected plant permits and industry orders for stationary combustion turbines. The total burden is calculated by adding the total technical, management, and clerical hours per year. The technical hours are calculated by 13 TABLE 4.

Costs are estimated using the following rates: technical at $ 47, management at $ 78, and clerical at $ 27. 16 multiplying the total hours per respondent by the number of respondents per year for each respondent activity. Management and clerical hours are assumed to be 5 percent and 10 percent of the technical hours, respectively.

The total cost is calculated by summing the labor costs. With the exception of the costs for performance tests, the labor costs are determined by multiplying the total labor hours by the total wage rate for each labor category. Total cost is presented in the far right column of each table.

( e) Bottom Line Burden Hours and Cost Tables ( i) Respondent Tally A breakdown for each of the collection, reporting, and recordkeeping activities required by the NSPS is presented in Tables 1 through 3. The estimate of total annual hours requested from the respondents was based on the assumptions outlined in section 6( d) of this supporting statement. The EPA estimated the respondent burden by totaling the hours for the first 3 years after the implementation of the NSPS for technical, managerial, and clerical staff at the facility, and then dividing that total by three to determine the average annualized burden. The 3 year summary results are presented in Table 7. The total number of responses for these respondents over the first 3 years after the implementation of the NSPS is estimated to be 2,343, or an average of 781 per year. For the first 3 years after the implementation of the NSPS, the EPA estimates that industry would expend 20,542 hours annually at a cost of $ 1,797,264 per year to meet the monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements.

( ii) The Agency Tally A breakdown for each of the Agency activities required for the NSPS is provided in Tables 4 through 6. The bottom line Agency burden hours and costs, 17 TABLE 7.

Costs are estimated using the following rates: technical at $ 47, management at $ 78, and clerical at $ 27. 18 presented in Table 8, are calculated by totaling the hours per year for technical, managerial, and clerical staff, and by totaling the cost column. The average annual burden is calculated by dividing the 3 year total by three. The estimated average annual burden, over the first 3 years, for the Agency would be 1,266 hours at a cost of $ 58,987 per year.

( iii) Variations in the Annual Bottom Line The total number of respondent labor hours in the first year for each facility is 179 hours ( 12,687/ 71 = 179). This represents a total cost to this respondent of $ 16,547 ($ 1,174,810/ 71 = $ 16,547) in the first year. In the second year the respondent hours and costs for each facility would decrease to 145 and $ 8,935; respectively. In the third year the respondent hours would be 133 and the costs would be $ 8,147.

The total burden and cost estimates for the first 3 years after the NSPS is promulgated are given in Tables 1 through 3 and Table 7. The variation in total activity and respondent burden and cost from year to year is shown in the tables. In years 1, 2, and 3, the total costs are $ 1,174,810; $ 1,903,160; and $ 2,313,823; respectively ( see Tables 1 through 3 and 7). In year 1,

71 facilities are in startup phase. In year 2, 71 facilities are in startup phase and 71 are under normal operation. By the third year, 142 facilities are under normal operation, while 71 are in startup mode.

The total number of agency hours for review of reports also varies as more units start up and as the plants progress from startup reporting to annual compliance reporting. The total number of agency hours for years 1, 2, and 3 are 829; 1,266; and 1,703 The corresponding agency costs for activities during these years are 38,619; 58,987; and 79,355 ( see Table 8).

( f) Reasons for Change in Burden This is the initial estimation of burden for this ICR; therefore this section does not apply. 19 ( g) Burden Statement The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 26 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire,

install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information;

adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements;

train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.

Additional Listing Information for Medical Device Registration and
Listing--(OMB Control Number 0910-0387)--Extension

    The Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007 (the 2007
Amendments), enacted September 27, 2007, requires that device
establishment registrations and listings under 21 U.S.C. 360(p)
(including the submission of updated information), be submitted to the
Secretary of Health and Human Services (the Secretary) by electronic
means, unless the Secretary grants a request for waiver of the
requirement because the use of electronic means is not reasonable for
the person requesting the waiver. See section 224 of the 2007
Amendments. The 2007 Amendments provides for an October 1, 2007,
effective date. FDA expects 20,000 to 30,000 establishments will need
to register between now and December 31, 2008. FDA is seeking OMB
approval for the information collected by electronic means.
Registration by electronic means for device establishments will mean
replacement of FDA Forms 2891 and 2891a, ``Registration of Device
Establishment'' and FDA Form 2892 ``Medical Device Listing,'' with
electronic versions. However, for OMB approval of the extension request
for this collection of information, FDA is revising the scope to
address only the reporting and recordkeeping requirements by non-
electronic means as described in this document and set forth in Sec.
807.31 (21 CFR 807.31) for ``Additional Listing Information.'' To
reflect the revised scope of this collection of information, FDA has
modified the title.
    Under Sec.  807.31(a) through (d), each owner or operator is
required to maintain an historical file containing the labeling and
advertisements in use on the date of initial listing, and in use after
October 10, 1978, but before the date of initial listing. The owner or
operator must maintain in the historical file any labeling or
advertisements in which a material change has been made anytime after
initial listing, but may discard labeling and advertisements from the
file 3 years after the date of the last shipment of a discontinued
device by an owner or operator. Along with the recordkeeping
requirements, under Sec.  807.31(e), the owner or operator must be
prepared to submit to FDA copies of: (1) All device labeling, (2) all
device labeling and representative advertising, or (3) only
representative package inserts, depending upon whether the device is
subject to the regulatory controls under section 514 or section 515 of
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act), or restrictions imposed
by 21 CFR 801.109 or otherwise by section 520(e) of the act.
    The information collected under these provisions is used by FDA to
identify: (1) Firms subject to FDA's regulations, (2) geographic
distribution in order to effectively allocate FDA's field resources for
these inspections, and (3) the class of the device that determines the
frequency of inspection. As a result, when complications occur with a
particular device or component, all

manufacturers of similar or related devices can easily be identified.
    The likely respondents to this information collection are domestic
and foreign device establishments who must register and submit a device
list to FDA, e.g., establishments engaged in the manufacture,
preparation, propagation, compounding, assembly, or processing of
medical devices intended for human use and commercial distribution.
    In the Federal Register of February 5, 2008 (73 FR 6731), FDA
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the information
collection provisions. No comments were received.

respondent recordkeeping burden is estimated to be 32,400 hours. The
estimates cited in tables 1 and 2 of this document are based primarily
on the annual FDA accomplishment report, which includes actual FDA
registration and listing data derived for fiscal year (FY) 2006. These
estimates are also based on FDA estimates of FY 2006 data from current
systems and conversations with industry and trade association
representatives. FDA anticipates reviewing annually, 200 historical
files.

RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; General Electric Company Turbofan
Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2017-07-
04, which applies to General Electric Company (GE) GE90-110B1 and GE90-
115B turbofan engines with certain high-pressure compressor (HPC) rotor
stage 2-5 spools installed. AD 2017-07-04 resulted from reports of
cracks in HPC rotor stage 2-5 spool aft spacer arms. Since we issued AD
2017-07-04, GE released a new service bulletin (SB) that increases the
number of affected HPC rotor stage 2-5 spools. Additionally, we learned
that we inadvertently omitted certain HPC rotor stage 2-5 spools from
the applicability of AD 2017-07-04. This proposed AD would require
removing certain HPC rotor stage 2-5 spools from service before
reaching the new reduced life limit and replacing them with parts
eligible for installation. We are proposing this AD to correct the
unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by August 9, 2018.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this proposed AD.

Discussion

    We issued AD 2017-07-04, Amendment 39-18842 (82 FR 16728, April 6,
2017), (``AD 2017-07-04''), for GE GE90-110B1 and GE90-115B turbofan
engines with certain HPC rotor stage 2-5 spools installed. AD 2017-07-
04 requires removing these spools from service at times determined by a
drawdown plan. AD 2017-07-04 resulted from reports of cracks in HPC
rotor stage 2-5 spool aft spacer arms. We issued AD 2017-07-04 to
prevent failure of a critical life-limited rotating engine part, which
could result in an uncontained engine failure and damage to the
airplane.

Actions Since AD 2017-07-04 Was Issued

    Since we issued AD 2017-07-04, GE released GE SB GE90-100 SB 72-
0714 R01, dated February 16, 2018, for the HPC rotor stage 2-5 spools,
which increases the number of affected parts.
    Additionally, GE and Boeing provided comments on AD-2017-07-04 that
some HPC rotor stage 2-5 spools listed in AD 2013-24-17 (superseded by
AD 2017-07-04), were omitted from AD 2017-07-04.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We reviewed GE SB GE90-100 SB 72-0499 R01, dated February 5, 2014;
GE SB GE90-100 SB 72-0659 R01, dated February 18, 2016; and GE SB GE90-
100 SB 72-0714 R01, dated February 16, 2018.
    GE SB GE90-100 SB 72-0499 R01 describes procedures for
identification and removal from service of HPC rotor stage 2-5 spools
that use the original seal tooth coating process. GE SB GE90-100 SB 72-
0659 R01 describes procedures for identification and removal from
service of HPC rotor stage 2-5 spools that use a modified seal tooth
coating process. GE SB GE90-100 SB 72-0714 R01 describes procedures for
identification and removal from service of HPC rotor stage 2-5 spools
that use the modified seal tooth coating process, without coating
between the seal teeth.
    This service information 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.

FAA's Determination

    We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would retain all requirements of AD 2017-07-04.
This proposed AD would require removing certain HPC rotor stage 2-5
spools from service at times specified in the required actions section.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 85 engines installed on
airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, Section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701, ``General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.
    This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to engines, propellers, and
associated appliances to the Manager, Engine and Propeller Standards
Branch, Policy and Innovation Division.

Regulatory Findings

    We have determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism

implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that the proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) 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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.
