Approval: Comment Request; Great Lakes Accountability System
(Reinstatement)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency has submitted an
information collection request (ICR), Great Lakes Accountability System
(Reinstatement) (EPA ICR No. 2379.02, OMB Control No. 2005-0001) to the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
This is a request to reinstate the ICR. Public comments were previously
requested via the Federal Register (78 FR 21937) on April 12, 2013
during a 60-day comment period. No comments were received. This notice
allows for an additional 30 days

for public comments. A more complete description of the ICR is given
below, including its estimated burden and cost to the public. 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.

DATES: Additional comments must be submitted on or before October 7,
2013.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, referencing Docket ID No. EPA-R05-OW-
2009-0932 to (1) EPA online using www.regulations.gov (our preferred
method) or by mail to: Environmental Protection Agency, Great Lakes
National Program Office, Attn: Rita Cestaric, 77 W. Jackson, Chicago,
IL 60604 and (2) OMB via email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Address
comments to OMB Desk Officer for EPA.
    EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included in the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supporting documents, which explain in
detail the information that the EPA will be collecting, are available
in the public docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at
www.regulations.gov or in person at the EPA Great Lakes National
Program Office, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.
    Abstract: In 2010, EPA, in concert with its federal partners, began
implementation of the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) that
was included in the Department of the Interior, Environment, and
Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2010 (Pub. L. 111-88) and
subsequent appropriations. The GLRI invests funds in programs and
projects strategically chosen to target the most significant
environmental problems in the Great Lakes ecosystem. The legislation
called for increased accountability for the GLRI and directed EPA to
implement a process to track, measure, and report on progress. As part
of this process, federal and non-federal entities receiving GLRI funds
are required to submit detailed information on GLRI projects into the
Great Lakes Accountability System (GLAS). The information is necessary
to provide an accurate depiction of activities, progress, and results.
Information is updated on a quarterly basis.
    Form Numbers: None
    Respondents/affected entities: Great Lakes Restoration Initiative
Funding Recipients
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Required for recipients of GLRI
funds
    Estimated number of respondents: 113
    Frequency of response: Quarterly
    Total estimated burden: 2,468 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $140,076.16 (per year), which includes no
capital investment or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in Estimates: There is a decrease of 18,195 hours in the
total respondent burden compared with the previous ICR. Overall, EPA
has a better understanding of how long it takes respondents to complete
forms and historical data to project new respondents and active
projects over the next three years. Additionally, (1) there is a
decrease in the number of respondents due to overestimated figures in
the previous information collection; (2) the number of active grants
will continue to decrease, as projects are completed and fewer new
grants are awarded; and (3) the lower burden hours reflect increased
respondent familiarity with the GLAS and the information collection.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Notice of Intent of Waiver With Respect to Land; Sloulin Field
International Airport, ISN, Williston, North Dakota

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is considering a proposal to change 788.93 acres of
airport land from aeronautical use to non-aeronautical use and to
authorize the sale of airport property located at the former Sloulin
Field International Airport, ISN, Williston, ND. The aforementioned
land is not needed for aeronautical use because the new Williston Basin
International Airport, XWA, Williston, ND is open and available for
public aeronautical use. The former Williston Airport, ISN, site is
located primarily on the west side of Highway 2, north of 26th Street
in the City of Williston with 7.25 acres located on the east side of
Highway 2. The airport's prior aeronautical use was for commercial and
general aviation flying. The proposed non-aeronautical use of the
property will be for commercial and residential development.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before March 27, 2020.

ADDRESSES: Documents are available for review by appointment at the FAA
Dakota-Minnesota Airports District Office, Mark J. Holzer, FAA Program
Manager, 2301 University Drive-Bldg. 23B, Bismarck, ND 58504 Telephone:
701-323-7393/Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER> and City of Williston, Williston Basin
Intl. Airport, 14127 Jensen Ln. Suite 200, Williston, ND 58801,
Telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>. Written comments on the Sponsor's request must
be delivered or mailed to: Mark J. Holzer, FAA Program Manager, Federal
Aviation Administration, Dakota-Minnesota Airports District Office,

District Office, 2301 University Drive-Bldg. 23B, Bismarck, ND 58504
Telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>/Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    In accordance with section 47107(h) of Title 49, United States
Code, this notice is required to be published in the Federal Register
30 days before modifying the land-use assurance that requires the
property to be used for an aeronautical purpose.
    The former Sloulin Field International Airport was a commercial
service airport located in the City of Williston, ND. The land was
acquired by the City of Williston with funding assistance from the FAA
AIP, ADAP and FAAP grant programs, ND State Aeronautics Commission and
local funding. The City of Williston plans to make the former airport
site available for development opportunities including combinations of
multi-family residential, commercial and business uses as well as
public and civic uses.
    The disposition of proceeds from the sale of the airport property
will be in accordance with FAA's Policy and Procedures Concerning the
Use of Airport Revenue, published in the Federal Register on February
16, 1999 (64 FR 7696). Approval does not constitute a commitment by the
FAA to financially assist in the change in use of the subject airport
property nor a determination of eligibility for grant-in-aid funding
from the FAA.
    This notice announces that the FAA is considering the release of
the subject airport property at the former Sloulin Field International
Airport, ISN, Williston, ND from all federal land covenants, subject to
a restrictive covenant related to the future use of certain ``avoidance
areas'' within the released property. The FAA's Finding of No
Significant Impact/Record of Decision for the Proposed Replacement
Airport (XWA), dated September 22, 2015, requires such restrictive
covenant as a condition for releasing the former airport property.
Approval does not constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially
assist in the disposal of the subject airport property nor a
determination of eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-56861; File No. SR-Amex-2007-127]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; American Stock Exchange LLC;
Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To
Make Certain Conforming Changes to Amex Rules Relating to the Amex Book
Clerk Program

November 29, 2007.
    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 November 28, 2007, the American Stock Exchange LLC (``Exchange'' or
``Amex'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and
II below, which Items have been substantially prepared by the Exchange.
The Exchange has designated this proposal as non-controversial under
Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \3\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
thereunder,\4\ which renders the proposed rule change effective upon
filing with the Commission. The Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

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

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

    The Exchange proposes to make certain non-substantive housekeeping
changes to Amex rules, to conform to the recent approval of the Amex
Book Clerks program. The text of the proposed rule change is available
at Amex, the Commission's Public Reference Room, and http://amex.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 Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such
statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The Commission recently approved the Exchange's proposal (the ``ABC
Proposal'') to eliminate the agency obligations of specialists and
establish Amex Book Clerks (``ABCs'').\5\ In connection with the ABC
Proposal, the Exchange submitted a related filing limiting the
liability of the Exchange for the actions of ABCs, which was also
recently approved.\6 \
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 56804 (November 16,
2007), 72 FR 66002 (November 26, 2007) (SR-Amex-2006-107).
    \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 56805 (November 16,
2007), 72 FR 65773 (November 23, 2007) (SR-Amex-2007-122).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to make certain non-substantive housekeeping
changes to Amex rules, including Rule 995-ANTE, governing ABCs, and
Rule 996-ANTE, governing the liability of the Exchange in connection
with ABCs.
    Specifically, the Exchange proposes to delete paragraph (d) in Rule
995-ANTE, governing the liability of the Exchange for the actions of
ABCs, since this text is included in new Rule 996-ANTE. Given the date
of the approval order, the Exchange also proposes to extend the date by
which the Exchange shall assign an ABC to each applicable trading
station from November 30, 2007 to May

1, 2008.\7\ The Exchange also proposes to amend Rule 996-ANTE to
replace the references to Amex Rule 960 with the correct reference to
Amex Rule 970.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ As noted in the ABC Proposal, the Exchange proposes to
implement this rule change to all applicable trading posts over a
180-day period.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    While the ABC Proposal was pending with the Commission, the
Exchange filed an unrelated proposal to establish the Exchange's
Directed Order Program, which was separately codified as Rule 996-
ANTE.\8\ The Exchange proposes to correct this duplicate designation by
renumbering the version of Rule 996-ANTE that governs the Exchange's
Directed Order Program as Rule 997-ANTE. The Exchange also proposes a
conforming change to correct a cross-reference in Rule 935-ANTE.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 56269 (August 15,
2007), 72 FR 47086 (August 22, 2007) (approving SR-Amex-2007-75).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Finally, the Exchange proposes to renumber Commentary .03 to Rule
958A-ANTE regarding timing of firm quote obligations for orders
received by the ABC as Commentary .04, also to correct an erroneous
duplicate designation.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act \9\ in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act \10\ in particular, in that it
is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices,
to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster
cooperation and coordination with persons engage in regulating,
clearing, settling, processing information with respect to and
facilitating transactions in securities, to remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market
system, and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest;
and is not designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers,
issuers, brokers and dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change will 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

    No written comments were solicited or received by the Exchange 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) of the Act \11\ and subparagraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b-4
thereunder.\12\ Because the foregoing proposed rule change: (i) Does
not significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) does not impose any significant burden on competition;
and (iii) does not become operative for 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.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \12\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \13\ Rule 19b-4(f)(6) also requires the Exchange to give the
Commission written notice of its intent to file the 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 the five-day pre-filing
requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) normally does
not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing. However,
Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) permits the Commission to waive the operative
delay if such action is consistent with the protection of investors and
the public interest. The Exchange has asked the Commission to waive the
operative delay to permit the proposed rule change to become effective
prior to the 30th day after filing.
    The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest.
Waiver of the 30-day pre-operative waiting period will allow immediate
clarification of Amex rules regarding ABCs, by deleting duplicative
text, fixing duplicative numbering, and clarifying the date by which
the Exchange shall assign an ABC to each applicable trading station
under the ABC proposal. Therefore, the Commission has determined to
waive the 30-day delay and allow the proposed rule change to become
operative upon filing.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ For purposes only of waiving the operative delay of this
proposal, the Commission notes that it 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.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:

II. Legal Basis

    FMCSA has authority under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315 to grant
exemptions from certain Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations
(FMCSRs). FMCSA must publish a notice of each exemption request in the
Federal Register (49 CFR 381.315(a)). The Agency must provide the
public an opportunity to inspect the information relevant to the
application, including any safety analyses that have been conducted.
The Agency must also provide an opportunity for public comment on the
request.
    The Agency reviews safety analyses and public comments submitted,
and determines whether granting the exemption would likely achieve a
level of safety equivalent to, or greater than, the level that would be
achieved by the current regulation (49 CFR 381.305). The decision of
the Agency must be published in the Federal Register (49 CFR
381.315(b)) with the reasons for denying or granting the application
and, if granted, the name of the person or class of persons receiving
the exemption, and the regulatory provision from which the exemption is
granted. The notice must also specify the effective period (up to 5
years) and explain the terms and conditions of the exemption. The
exemption may be renewed (49 CFR 381.300(b)).

III. Request for Exemption

    Drivers qualifying for the HOS short-haul exception in 49 CFR
395.1(e)(1) do not have to maintain a record of duty status (RODS) on
board the vehicle, provided that (among other things) they return to
their normal work reporting location and are relased from work within
12 hours after coming on duty. A driver who exceeds the 12-hour limit
loses the short-haul exception and must immediately prepare RODS for
the entire day, often by means of an electronic logging device (ELD)
(49 CFR 395.8(a)(1)(i)).
    WMH seeks an exemption for approximately 18,000 drivers in 84
separate subsidiaries or affiliates who operate CMVs to collect waste
and recycling materials. These drivers routinely qualify for the short-
haul exception. 395.1(e)(1). However, occasionally they cannot complete
their duty day within 12 hours. WMH seeks an exemption to allow its
drivers to continue to qualify for the short-haul exception up to the
14th hour after coming on duty.
    WM states that ELDs delay and distract its drivers working to
collect waste and recycling materials because

they require excessive interaction. The exemption application states
that, as a result of frequent stops to pick up trash, its drivers re
required to interact with the ELD ``hundreds if not thousands of times
a day.'' WMH asserts that ELDs are not designed for such operations and
that they lack ``a provision for blocking service time.'' WMH also
states that the ELDs do not accurately capture the duty status of its
drivers. According to the application, WMH has been actively working
with its ELD provider to improve ELD performance in this environment,
but that progress has been limited. WMH also asserts that the excessive
driver-ELD interaction impacts ``driver safety and the safety of the
communities we serve.''
    WMH notes that certain CMV drivers may already operate up to 14
hours without forfeiting short-haul status, for example those in the
ready-mixed concrete industry [49 CFR 395.1(e)(1)(ii)(B)] or the
asphalt-paving business [83 FR 3864, Jan. 26, 2018]. It asserts that
WMH's operations are similar to these industries because its drivers
``spend a significant portion of their days conducting non-driving
duties.'' It states that WMH anticipates ``no reduction in safety from
the exemption requested, and a potential for increased safety due to
reduced [driver] distraction.''
    WMH cites its fatigue management program as further evidence that
operations with the exemption in place would equal or exceed the level
of safety under the current HOS regulations. This program includes the
use of video event recorders triggered by unusual events suggestive of
driver fatigue, like aggressive braking, steering, or acceleration.
When WMH's assessment of the recording indicates that driver fatigue is
involved, WMH managers may discipline the driver. More commonly, WMH
managers assess the driver's overall lifestyle and health, including
his or her off-duty activities and medical history, and counsel the
individual on changes he or she can undertake to ameliorate fatigue.
WMH managers also ride with each employee-driver several times a year
to observe his or her performance.
    WMH requests a 5-year exemption. WMH's application for exemption,
including a list of its 84 operating companies, is available for review
in the docket for this notice.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-65041; File No. SR-NASDAQ-2011-107]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC;
Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To
Correct the Proprietary Trader Registration Category

August 5, 2011.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 \2\ thereunder, notice is hereby given
that on August 1, 2011, The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (the ``Exchange''
or ``NASDAQ'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``SEC'' or ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in
Items I and II, 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

    NASDAQ is filing with the Commission a proposed rule change to
correct a prior filing to make it applicable to NASDAQ and not just the
NASDAQ Options Market (``NOM'').\3\ The prior filing amended NASDAQ
Rule 1032, Categories of Representative Registration, to adopt a new
limited category of representative registration for proprietary
traders, as described further below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 64958 (July 25,
2011) (SR-NASDAQ-2011- 095) (``NASDAQ Proprietary Trader Filing'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The text of the proposed rule change is available at http:/
nasdaq.cchwallstreet.com/, at NASDAQ's principal office, and at the
Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
sections A, B, and C below, of

the most significant aspects of such statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The purpose of the proposed rule change is to correct a prior
filing, the NASDAQ Proprietary Trader Filing, to make it applicable to
NASDAQ and not just the NASDAQ Options Market (``NOM''). Although that
filing was correctly submitted as a NASDAQ filing, the exhibit to the
filing was incorrectly limited to NOM.
    The NASDAQ Proprietary Trader Filing amended NASDAQ Rule 1032,
Categories of Representative Registration, to adopt a new limited
category of representative registration for proprietary traders. This
new category should apply to all NASDAQ members, not just NOM
participants. Specifically, paragraph (c) to Rule 1032 recognized the
``Proprietary Trader'' category of registration for persons engaged
solely in proprietary trading; it expressly provides that such person's
activities in the investment banking or securities business are limited
solely to proprietary trading, that he passes the Series 56 and that he
is an associated person of a proprietary trading firm as defined in
Rule 1011(o).\4\ NASDAQ proposes herein that Rule 1032(c) applies to
all NASDAQ members.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Rule 1011(o) defines a proprietary trading firm as an
Applicant with the following characteristics: (1) The Applicant is
not required by Section 15(b)(8) of the Act to become a FINRA member
but is a member of another registered securities exchange not
registered solely under Section 6(g) of the Act; (2) all funds used
or proposed to be used by the Applicant for trading are the
Applicant's own capital, traded through the Applicant's own
accounts; (3) the Applicant does not, and will not have
``customers,'' as that term is defined in Nasdaq Rule 0120(g); and
(4) all Principals and Representatives of the Applicant acting or to
be acting in the capacity of a trader must be owners of, employees
of, or contractors to the Applicant. ``Applicant'' is defined in
Rule 1011(a).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Accordingly, as stated in the NASDAQ Proprietary Trader Filing,
associated persons of NASDAQ members who deal with the public do not
fit in this registration category and must continue to register as
General Securities Representatives, and NASDAQ believes that the new
limited registration category and qualification examination are
appropriate, because they are tailored to proprietary trading
functions. In addition, because NASDAQ rules require it, persons
associated with NASDAQ members are, today, already registered as
General Securities Representatives and have passed the Series 7
examination. As applied to all NASDAQ members, this proposal does not
require proprietary traders who have already registered as General
Securities Representatives and have passed the Series 7 examination to
register under the new category as Proprietary Traders or to pass the
Series 56, because NASDAQ believes this would be redundant. Persons who
are registered as General Securities Representatives and have passed
the Series 7 may, of course, perform the functions of a Proprietary
Trader, because the new Proprietary Trader registration category is a
limited registration category. As applied to all NASDAQ members, this
proposal does not preclude associated persons from registering as
General Securities Representatives and passing the Series 7 examination
and then functioning as a Proprietary Trader.
    NASDAQ expects that new members might consider the new category
when applying for NASDAQ membership, once the new category and
examination become available to NASDAQ members in WebCRD. Accordingly,
NASDAQ believes that the new category should be helpful to attracting
new members to NASDAQ, while at the same time preserving the important
goals of appropriate registration and qualification for persons in the
securities business. Additionally, members who hire new associated
persons might choose to register those persons in the new category.
    Unlike the associated persons of proprietary trading firms covered
by this proposal, associated persons of NASDAQ members that are NOT
proprietary trading firms continue to be subject to registration as
General Securities Representatives and have to pass the Series 7
examination.\5\ They are not eligible for the new registration category
and examination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Such persons may also be subject to registration as an
Equity Trader pursuant to Rule 1032(f), which requires successful
completion of the Series 55 exam (for which the prerequisite is the
Series 7 examination).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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: (1)
Section 6(c)(3)(B) of the Act,\7\ pursuant to which a national
securities exchange prescribes standards of training, experience and
competence for members and their associated persons; and (2) Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,\8\ in that it is designed, among other things, 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, by
offering a new, limited registration category to NASDAQ members. The
Exchange believes that these new requirements should help ensure that
all associated persons engaged in a securities business are, and will
continue to be, properly trained and qualified to perform their
functions, because the new category and examination are limited and
tailored to persons performing proprietary trading functions. This
proposal corrects the NASDAQ Proprietary Trader Filing by applying Rule
1032(c) to all NASDAQ members, not just NOM participants.

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78(c)(3)(B) [sic].
    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition 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 either solicited or received.

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

    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \9\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
\10\ thereunder, the Exchange has designated this proposal as one that
effects a change that: (i) Does not significantly affect the protection
of investors or the public interest; (ii) does not impose any
significant burden on competition; and (iii) by its terms, does not
become operative for 30 days after the date of the filing, or such
shorter time as the Commission may designate if consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest. Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \11\
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.

 Under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) of the Act,\12\ a proposal does not become
operative for 30 days after the date of its filing, or such shorter
time as the Commission may designate if consistent with the protection
of investors and the public interest. The Exchange requests that the
Commission waive the 30 day operative period for this filing so that it
may become effective and operative upon filing with the Commission
pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) \13\ of the Act and subparagraph (f)(6)
thereunder. The Exchange believes waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest as
the waiver will allow the Exchange to apply NASDAQ Rule 1032(c) to all
NASDAQ members, not just NOM participants, near the same time as other
exchanges have established proprietary trading registration and
qualification requirements. For the reasons stated above, the
Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest and
designates the proposal as operative upon filing.\14\
