Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2022-18-14, which applies to certain Airbus SAS Model A330-200 series,
A330-200 Freighter series, A330-300 series, A330-800 series, and A330-
900 series airplanes. AD 2022-18-14 requires revising the existing
maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or
more restrictive airworthiness limitations. Since the FAA issued AD
2022-18-14, the FAA has determined that new or more restrictive
airworthiness limitations are necessary. This proposed AD would
continue to require the actions in AD 2022-18-14, and would require
revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable,
to incorporate additional new or more restrictive airworthiness
limitations, as specified in two European Union Aviation Safety Agency
(EASA) ADs, which are proposed for incorporation by reference (IBR).
The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by September
11, 2023.

Background

    The FAA issued AD 2022-18-14, Amendment 39-22165 (87 FR 56566,
September 15, 2022) (AD 2022-18-14), for certain Airbus SAS Model A330-
201, -202, -203, -223, and -243 airplanes; Model A330-223F and -243F
airplanes; Model A330-301, -302, -303, -321, -322, -323, -341, -342,
and -343 airplanes; Model A330-841 airplanes; and Model A330-941
airplanes. AD 2022-18-14 was prompted by MCAI originated by EASA, which
is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Union.
EASA issued AD 2021-0261, dated November 22, 2021 (EASA AD 2021-0261)
(which prompted FAA AD 2022-18-14), to correct an unsafe condition.
    AD 2022-18-14 requires revising the existing maintenance or
inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate additional new or
more restrictive airworthiness limitations. The FAA issued AD 2022-18-
14 to address fatigue cracking, accidental damage, and corrosion in
principal structural elements; such fatigue cracking, accidental
damage, and corrosion could result in reduced structural integrity of
the airplane.

Actions Since AD 2022-18-14 Was Issued

    Since the FAA issued AD 2022-18-14, EASA superseded EASA AD 2021-
0261 and issued EASA AD 2022-0187, dated September 13, 2022 (EASA AD
2022-0187), for all Airbus SAS Model A330-201, -202, -203, -223, -223F,
-243, -243F, -301, -302, -303, -321, -322, -323, -341, -342, -343, -841
and -941 airplanes. EASA AD 2022-0187 states that new or more
restrictive airworthiness limitations have been developed.
    EASA also issued EASA AD 2023-0015, dated January 19, 2023 (EASA AD
2023-0015), for all Airbus SAS Model A330-201, -202, -203, -223, -223F,
-243, -243F, -301, -302, -303, -321, -322, -323, -341, -342, and -343
airplanes. EASA AD 2023-0015 states that new or more restrictive
airworthiness limitations have been developed. EASA AD 2023-0015 also
states that it requires certain tasks also required by EASA AD 2022-
0187, and invalidates (terminates) the tasks that are also required by
EASA AD 2022-0187. Therefore, for this proposed AD, where EASA AD 2023-
0015 affects the same airworthiness limitations as those in EASA AD
2022-0187, the airworthiness limitations referenced in EASA AD 2023-
0015 would prevail.
    Airplanes with an original airworthiness certificate or original
export certificate of airworthiness issued after November 18, 2022,
must comply with the airworthiness limitations specified as part of the
approved type design and referenced on the type certificate data sheet;
this proposed AD therefore does not include those airplanes in the
applicability.
    The FAA is proposing this AD to address fatigue cracking,
accidental damage, and corrosion in principal structural elements; such
fatigue cracking, accidental damage, and corrosion could result in
reduced structural integrity of the airplane. You may examine the MCAI
in the AD docket at regulations.gov under Docket No. FAA-2023-1642.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed EASA AD 2022-0187 and EASA AD 2023-0015. This
service information specifies new or more restrictive airworthiness
limitations for airplane structures. These documents are distinct since
they apply to different airplane configurations.
    This proposed AD would also require EASA AD 2021-0261, which the
Director of the Federal Register approved for incorporation by
reference as of October 20, 2022 (87 FR 56566, September 15, 2022).
    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 ADDRESSES.

FAA's Determination

    These products have been approved by the aviation authority of
another country and are approved for operation in the United States.
Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral agreement with this State of Design
Authority, it has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition described in
the MCAI referenced above. The FAA is issuing this NPRM after
determining that the unsafe condition described previously is likely to
exist or develop in other products of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would retain all of the requirements of AD 2022-
18-14. This proposed AD would also require

revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable,
to incorporate additional new or more restrictive airworthiness
limitations, which are specified in EASA AD 2022-0187 and EASA AD 2023-
0015 already described, as proposed for incorporation by reference. Any
differences with EASA AD 2022-0187 and EASA AD 2023-0015 are identified
as exceptions in the regulatory text of this AD.
    This proposed AD would require revisions to certain operator
maintenance documents to include new actions (e.g., inspections).
Compliance with these actions is required by 14 CFR 91.403(c). For
airplanes that have been previously modified, altered, or repaired in
the areas addressed by this proposed AD, the operator may not be able
to accomplish the actions described in the revisions. In this
situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator must request
approval for an alternative method of compliance (AMOC) according to
paragraph (m)(1) of this proposed AD.

Explanation of Required Compliance Information

    In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA developed a process to use some civil aviation
authority (CAA) ADs as the primary source of information for compliance
with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. The FAA has been
coordinating this process with manufacturers and CAAs. As a result, the
FAA proposes to retain the IBR of EASA AD 2021-0261, and incorporate
EASA AD 2022-0187 and EASA AD 2023-0015 by reference in the FAA final
rule. This proposed AD would, therefore, require compliance with EASA
AD 2021-0261, EASA AD 2022-0187, and EASA AD 2023-0015 through that
incorporation, except for any differences identified as exceptions in
the regulatory text of this proposed AD. Using common terms that are
the same as the heading of a particular section in EASA AD 2021-0261,
EASA AD 2022-0187, or EASA AD 2023-0015 does not mean that operators
need comply only with that section. For example, where the AD
requirement refers to ``all required actions and compliance times,''
compliance with this AD requirement is not limited to the section
titled ``Required Action(s) and Compliance Time(s)'' in EASA AD 2021-
0261, EASA AD 2022-0187, or EASA AD 2023-0015. Service information
required by EASA AD 2021-0261, EASA AD 2022-0187, or EASA AD 2023-0015
for compliance will be available at regulations.gov by searching for
and locating Docket No. FAA-2023-1642 after the FAA final rule is
published.

Airworthiness Limitation ADs Using the New Process

    The FAA's process of incorporating by reference MCAI ADs as the
primary source of information for compliance with corresponding FAA ADs
has been limited to certain MCAI ADs (primarily those with service
bulletins as the primary source of information for accomplishing the
actions required by the FAA AD). However, the FAA is now expanding the
process to include MCAI ADs that require a change to airworthiness
limitation documents, such as airworthiness limitation sections.
    For these ADs that incorporate by reference an MCAI AD that changes
airworthiness limitations, the FAA requirements are unchanged.
Operators must revise the existing maintenance or inspection program,
as applicable, to incorporate the information specified in the new
airworthiness limitation document. The airworthiness limitations must
be followed according to 14 CFR 91.403(c) and 91.409(e).
    The previous format of the airworthiness limitation ADs included a
paragraph that specified that no alternative actions (e.g.,
inspections) or intervals may be used unless the actions and intervals
are approved as an AMOC in accordance with the procedures specified in
the AMOCs paragraph under ``Additional AD Provisions.'' This new format
includes a ``New Provisions for Alternative Actions and Intervals''
paragraph that does not specifically refer to AMOCs, but operators may
still request an AMOC to use an alternative action or interval.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 120 airplanes of U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following
costs to comply with this proposed AD:
    The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the retained
actions from AD 2022-18-14 to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-
hour).
    The FAA has determined that revising the existing maintenance or
inspection program takes an average of 90 work-hours per operator,
although the agency recognizes that this number may vary from operator
to operator. Since operators incorporate maintenance or inspection
program changes for their affected fleet(s), the FAA has determined
that a per-operator estimate is more accurate than a per-airplane
estimate.
    The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the new proposed
actions to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-hour).

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

    The FAA determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-62050; File No. SR-ISE-2010-37]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; International Securities Exchange,
LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule
Change Relating to Amending the Direct Edge ECN Fee Schedule

May 6, 2010.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on April 30, 2010, the International Securities Exchange, LLC (the
``Exchange'' or the ``ISE'') 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 self-
regulatory organization. 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 Direct Edge ECN's (``DECN'') fee
schedule for ISE Members \3\ to (i) change the rates for routing in
securities priced less than $1.00 to certain away market centers; (ii)
reintroduce the rebate on securities priced less than $1.00 that add
liquidity to EDGX; (iii) pass through rebates/fees from other market
centers; and (iv) increase the rebate for Members meeting the Ultra
Tier. All of the changes described herein are applicable to ISE
Members.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ References to ISE Members in this filing refer to DECN
Subscribers who are ISE Members.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
Internet Web site at http://www.ise.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 these statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The self-regulatory organization
has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B and C below, of the
most significant aspects of such statements.

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

1. Purpose
    DECN, a facility of ISE, operates two trading platforms, EDGX and
EDGA.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ This fee filing relates to the trading facility operated by
ISE and not EDGA Exchange, Inc. and EDGX Exchange, Inc. Direct Edge
ECN LLC (EDGA and EDGX) will cease to operate in its capacity as an
electronic communications network following the commencement of
operations of EDGA Exchange, Inc. and EDGX Exchange, Inc. as
national securities exchanges.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange is proposing to amend the routing rates to certain
away market centers associated with the removal of liquidity from EDGA
and EDGX in securities priced less than $1.00. Currently, for orders in
securities priced less than $1.00 that are routed to Nasdaq BX in Tapes
A & C securities and that remove liquidity, orders are charged the
Exchange's standard routing charge for securities less than $1.00
(0.30% of the total dollar value of the transaction, both on EDGA and
EDGX). As a result of a decrease in fees by Nasdaq OMX when removing
liquidity in securities priced less than $1.00,\5\ the Exchange
proposes to amend its fee schedule in order to charge 0.10% of the
total dollar value of the transaction (instead of 0.30%) when orders
are routed to Nasdaq BX in Tapes A & C securities and remove liquidity.
This is proposed to be indicated by footnote number 3 on the existing
``C'' flag. A conforming amendment has also been made to the fee
schedule to append footnote number 3 to indicate an exception to the
standard rate (0.30% of dollar value) for routing liquidity in
securities priced less than $1.00.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Nasdaq OMX Equity Trader Alert, 2010-27 (April
19, 2010) (``Firms will be charged 0.10% (i.e., 10 basis points) of
the total dollar value of the transaction when removing liquidity in
stocks with prices below $1.00'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Additionally, the Exchange proposes to charge 0.20% of the total
dollar value of the transaction when orders are routed to Nasdaq and
remove liquidity in securities on all Tapes or orders are routed to
Nasdaq using the INET \6\ order type and remove liquidity in securities
on all Tapes. This is proposed to be indicated by footnote number 3
appended to the existing ``J,'' ``L,'' and ``2'' flags. A conforming
amendment has also been made to the fee schedule to append footnote
number 3 to indicate an exception to the standard rate (0.30% of dollar
value) for routing liquidity in securities priced less than $1.00.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The INET order type sweeps the EDGA or EDGX book and removes
liquidity from Nasdaq, if the order is marketable, or posts on
Nasdaq, if the order is non-marketable.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that this rate change will seek to
incentivize the removal of liquidity from EDGA and EDGX in securities
priced less than $1.00 that are routed to certain away market centers.

Re-Introduction of Rebate

    Currently, there is no rebate for adding liquidity on EDGX in
securities priced less than $1.00. The Exchange is proposing to re-
introduce a rebate of $0.00003 per share for orders that add liquidity
to EDGX in securities priced less than $1.00. The Exchange believes
that this rebate is appropriate as it represents 30% of the minimum
price increment for securities priced less than $1.00 ($0.0001) and
effectively aligns the rebate with access fee caps under Regulation
NMS.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ The Access Rule of Regulation NMS limits the fees any
trading center can charge, or allow to be charged, for accessing its
protected quotations, both displayed and reserve size, to no more
than $0.003 per share. See Rule 610(c) of Regulation NMS, Securities
and Exchange Act Release No. 51808 (June 9, 2005), 70 FR 37496 (June
29, 2005).

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

Amendment to Ultra-Tier Rebate

    The Exchange's fee schedule currently provides that Members can
qualify for a rebate of $0.0031 per share for all liquidity posted on
EDGX if they add or route at least 5,000,000 shares of average daily
volume prior to 9:30 a.m. or after 4 p.m. (includes all flags except 6)
and add a minimum of 50,000,000 shares of average daily volume on EDGX
in total, including during both market hours and pre- and post-trading
hours. Effective May 1, 2010, the Exchange is proposing to increase
this rebate to $0.0032 per share to further incentivize posting
liquidity to EDGX. In addition, the higher rebate also results, in
part, from lower administrative costs associated with higher volume.

Pass-through of NYSE Fees/Rebates

    The NYSE recently announced changes, effective May 2010, that it
will increase the fee for removing liquidity in Tape A securities to
$0.0021 per share (from 0.0018 per share) and increase the rebate for
trading in Tape A securities to $0.0013 per share (from $0.0010 per
share). Flag D, which indicates orders that are routed or re-routed to
NYSE, and remove liquidity, will be amended to reflect the charge of
$0.0021 per share. A conforming amendment is also proposed to Flag F
(routed to NYSE, adds liquidity) to increase the rebate to $0.0013 per
share. Footnote 3 is proposed to be amended to reflect NYSE's fee
change for trading in securities with a per share price below $1.00
(from $0.0018 per share to $0.0021 per share). In addition, the ``Q''
flag, which denotes an order type (ROUC) that routes to the NYSE, is
proposed to be increased from $0.0015 per share to $0.0018 per share on
EDGA and EDGX to reflect the increase.
    The changes discussed in this filing will become operative on May
1, 2010.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the objectives of Section 6 of the Act,\8\ in general, and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4),\9\ in particular, as it is
designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees and other charges among its members and other persons using its
facilities. ISE notes that DECN operates in a highly competitive market
in which market participants can readily direct order flow to competing
venues if they deem fee levels at a particular venue to be excessive.
The proposed rule change reflects a competitive pricing structure
designed to incent market participants to direct their order flow to
DECN. The Exchange believes that the proposed amendment to the Ultra-
Tier rebate is equitable in that it applies uniformly to all Members
and provides a higher rebate for higher volume thresholds, resulting
from lower administrative costs. Finally, the Exchange believes that
the proposed rates further the objectives of Regulation NMS by
promoting competition and granting fair and equal access to all
exchange participants. ISE believes the fees and credits remain
competitive with those charged by other venues and therefore continue
to be reasonable and equitably allocated to those members that opt to
direct orders to DECN rather than competing venues.

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

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

    The proposed rule change does not 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

    The Exchange has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit,
comments on this proposed rule change. The Exchange has not received
any unsolicited written comments from members or other interested
parties.

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

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3) of the Act \10\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(2) \11\ thereunder. At any
time within 60 days of the filing of such 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.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Notice of Cancellation of Environmental Impact Statement for the
Norfolk International Airport, Norfolk, Virginia

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of cancellation of preparation of environmental impact
statement.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces that it
has discontinued preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
for the proposed construction of new Runway 5R/23L and associated
development at Norfolk International Airport, Norfolk, Virginia. The
FAA's discontinued preparation of the EIS is based upon the length of
time that has elapsed since the issuance of the Notice of Intent (NOI)
in 2001 for the project and the need to consider results from
additional planning efforts completed by the Norfolk Airport Authority
(NAA), the owner and operator of the airport. The additional planning
effort by NAA has modified the project purpose and need and refined
various project elements, including the need to relocate the Very High
Frequency Omni-directional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC)
facility. As a result of the additional planning studies, refinements
to the project scope, and the time elapsed; the FAA has decided to
discontinue the EIS as proposed in the NOI from 2001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrew Brooks, Environmental Program
Manager, Airports Division AEA-610, Federal Aviation Administration,
Eastern Region, 1 Aviation Plaza, Jamaica, New York 11434; Telephone
(718) 553-2511.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 28, 2001, the FAA, published in the
Federal Register a Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) and hold a Public Scoping Meeting at Norfolk
International Airport (Volume 66, Number 125, FR 34508-34509). The EIS
and Public Scoping Meeting were to address the proposed construction of
new Runway 5R/23L and associated development at the airport, including
new taxiway construction, taxiway relocation, runway safety area
construction, new airfield lighting, improvements to existing lighting,
relocation of the VORTAC facility, installation of a Medium Intensity
Approach Lighting System with Runway Alignment Indicator Lights (MALSR)
for the new Runway 23L, and a Category II Instrument Landing MALSR for
new Runway 5R.
    In 2001, the FAA based its decision to prepare the EIS on the
procedures described in FAA Order 5050.4A, Airport Environmental
Handbook, and FAA Order 1050.1D, Policies and Procedures for
Considering Environmental Impacts. FAA also based its decision to
prepare a federal EIS primarily on NAA's proposal to construct a new
Runway 5R/23L in parallel to the existing Runway 5/23, which would be
re-designated as Runway 5L/23R. The new runway was proposed to be 8,000
feet long and 150 feet wide and would have a runway centerline
separation from the existing runway of 845 feet.
    Subsequently, NAA completed supplemental planning efforts that
necessitated making changes to the proposed project's purpose and need.
Therefore, the proposed project's purpose and need has recently been
revised and various project components, including the relocation of the
VORTAC, are no longer required. The NAA submitted an Airport Layout
Plan revision to the FAA that depicted the refined project elements.
The Airport Layout Plan was conditionally approved, subject to
environmental review by the FAA on October 5, 2011. The FAA will
determine the appropriate National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
documentation necessary to assess the environmental effects of the
proposed improvements pursuant to FAA Order 5050.4B, National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Implementing Instructions for Airport
Actions, and FAA Order 1050.1E, Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures.

    Issued in Jamaica, New York, on December 5, 2013.

Manager, Airports Division, Eastern Region, AEA-600.

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

II. Clearing Agency's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis
for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, DTC 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. DTC has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B,
and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

(A) Clearing Agency's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis
for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The proposed rule change would revise both of [sic] the Custody
Guide and the Deposits Guide to make technical changes and updates to
reflect current terminology, systems functionality, procedures and
practices, as well as to simplify and clarify text.
    In this regard, the Custody Guide would be revised to:
    (i) Harmonize descriptions throughout regarding the eligibility of
securities and other assets for deposit in the Custody Service, and
update the list of items that are accepted or not accepted for deposit;
    (ii) Update references to functionality with respect to Participant
interfaces with DTC;
    (iii) Clarify that Participants' may utilize the New York Window
Service to facilitate physical transfers with respect to deliveries of
securities for services offered by National Securities Clearing
Corporation (NSCC) such as the Envelope Settlement Service (ESS) and
the Automated Customer Account Transfer Service (ACATS);
    (iv) Remove the ``Terms and Conditions'' section provided for the
New York Window Service which is not necessary in light of the
indemnification provisions relating to DTC's offering of services under
DTC Rule 6; \6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See DTC Rules (Rule 6 (Services)), pp. 45-49, available at
http://www.dtcc.com/~/media/Files/Downloads/legal/rules/
dtc_rules.pdf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (v) Update text, including descriptions of processes and address
information for the Custody Service and cross-references throughout;
and
    (vi) Conform grammar and usage of terminology throughout.
    In addition, the Deposits Guide would be revised to:
    (i) Remove language relating to the Custody Service that is
duplicative of the provisions in the Custody Guide;
    (ii) Clarify that provisions relating DTC's use of Participants'
medallion guarantee stamps for purposes of the Branch Deposit Service
also apply with respect to the Restricted Deposit Service;
    (iii) Update other text, including descriptions of processes and
address information for the Deposits Service and cross-references
throughout; and
    (iv) Conform grammar and usage of terminology throughout.
Implementation Date
    The proposed rule change would become effective immediately.
2. Statutory Basis
    The proposed rule change would revise the Custody Guide and the
Deposits Guide to make technical changes and updates to reflect current
terminology, systems functionality, procedures and practices, as well
as simplify and clarify the texts of both guides. Therefore, DTC
believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements
of: (i) The Act, in particular Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act,\7\
which requires that the rules of the clearing agency be designed, inter
alia, to promote the prompt and accurate clearance and settlement of
securities transactions, and (ii) Rule 17Ad-22(d)(9) \8\ promulgated
under the Act which requires, inter alia, that a clearing agency
establish, implement, maintain and enforce written policies and
procedures reasonably designed to identify and evaluate the risks and
costs associated with using its services, because the proposed changes
simplify and clarify the Guides' respective texts for the users of
DTC's services.

    \8\ 17 CFR 240.17Ad-22(d)(9).

 (B) Clearing Agency's Statement on Burden on Competition

    DTC does not believe that the proposed rule change would have any
impact, or impose any burden, on competition.

(C) Clearing Agency's Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change
Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    Written comments relating to the proposed rule change have not yet
been solicited or received. DTC will notify the Commission of any
written comments received by DTC.

Commission Action

19(b)(3)(A) \9\ of the Act and paragraph (f) of Rule 19b-4 \10\
thereunder. 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
