the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenters will be
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission's environmental review process.
Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenters will
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court
review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests and interventions via the Internet in lieu of paper. See, 18
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's web
site (http://www.ferc.gov) under the ``e-Filing'' link.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-90953; File No. SR-NYSEArca-2021-05]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE Arca, Inc.; Notice of Filing
and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Amend the NYSE
Arca Equities Fees and Charges

January 19, 2021.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act'') \2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that on January 13, 2021, NYSE Arca, Inc. (``NYSE Arca'' or the
``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
``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\ 15 U.S.C. 78a.
    \3\ 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 the NYSE Arca Equities Fees and
Charges (``Fee Schedule'') to (1) eliminate credits

and fees associated with Self Trade Prevention Modifiers, and (2)
eliminate the Market Data Revenue Sharing Credits. The proposed rule
change is available on the Exchange's website at www.nyse.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 self-regulatory organization
included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the
proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of those statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most
significant parts of such statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend the Fee Schedule to (1) eliminate
credits and fees associated with Self Trade Prevention (``STP'')
Modifiers, and (2) eliminate the Market Data Revenue Sharing Credits.
The Exchange proposes to implement the fee changes effective January
13, 2021.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Exchange originally filed to amend the Fee Schedule on
January 4, 2021 (SR-NYSEArca-2021-01). SR-NYSEArca-2021-01 was
subsequently withdrawn and replaced by this filing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange currently provides STP Modifiers that allow ETP
Holders entering orders to elect to prevent those orders from executing
against other orders entered on the Exchange by the same ETP Holder.\5\
In connection with the STP functionality, in 2009, the Exchange adopted
the following credits and fees for orders returned to an ETP Holder
using the STP Modifiers: ETP Holders entering an incoming order with
either the STP Cancel Both (``STPC'') or the STP Decrement and Cancel
(``STPD'') Modifier were charged $0.0030 per share for orders returned
to the ETP Holder. The ETP Holder's corresponding resting order marked
with any of the STP Modifiers that interacts with an incoming STPC or
STPD Modifier were credited $0.0029 per share for orders returned to
the ETP Holder. ETP Holders entering an incoming order with either the
STP Cancel Newest (``STPN'') or the STP Cancel Oldest (``STPO'')
Modifier were not credited or charged any fees.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 60191 (June 30,
2009), 74 FR 32660 (July 8, 2009) (SR-NYSEArca-2009-58).
    \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 60322 (July 16,
2009), 74 FR 36794 (July 24, 2009) (SR-NYSEArca-2009-68).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In 2018, the Exchange modified the credit from $0.0029 per share to
$0.0030 per share for an ETP Holder's resting order that is returned to
the ETP Holder.\7\ With that change, both the fee and the credit
associated with the STPC and STPD Modifiers is currently the same,
$0.0030 per share. Additionally, the Exchange continues to not charge a
fee or provide a credit to ETP Holders that enter an order with the
STPN Modifier or with the STPO Modifier.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 83032 (April 11,
2018), 83 FR 16909 (April 17, 2018) (SR-NYSEArca-2018-20).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As a result of the standardization of the credits and fees
associated with the STPC and STPD Modifiers, ETP Holders no longer pay
a fee or receive a credit for this activity. Coupled with the zero
credits and fees associated with the STPN and STPO Modifiers, there is
currently no revenue generated by the Exchange when ETP Holders utilize
the STP Modifiers when entering their orders on the Exchange. As a
result, the Exchange proposes to eliminate the credits and fees
associated with STP Modifiers and remove them from the Fee Schedule.
The Exchange also proposes to renumber footnotes through the Fee
Schedule in conjunction to the changes discussed herein.
    Additionally, the Fee Schedule currently provides for Market Data
Revenue Sharing Credits for Cross Orders in Tape A, Tape B and Tape C
Securities. Due to a lack of demand, the Exchange eliminated Cross
Orders in 2019.\8\ As a result, the Market Data Revenue Sharing Credits
program has become obsolete and the Exchange no longer collects revenue
pursuant to the program. Therefore, the Exchange proposes to eliminate
the Market Data Revenue Sharing Credits program and remove it, along
with footnote 11,\9\ from the Fee Schedule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 87519 (November 13,
2019), 84 FR 63917 (November 19, 2019) (SR-NYSEArca-2019-80).
    \9\ The Exchange notes that footnote 11 contains rule text that
is outdated, left over from the time when the Exchange employed a
Directed Order Process, which it no longer does, and which limited
the participation of LMMs in the program. The same applies to GTC
orders, which are also no longer available on the Exchange. The
Exchange, therefore, proposes to delete the rule text in footnote 11
in its entirety.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed rule changes are intended to streamline the Fee
Schedule by eliminating credits and fees that have become obsolete.
    The proposed changes are not otherwise intended to address any
other issues, and the Exchange is not aware of any significant problems
that market participants would have in complying with the proposed
changes.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act,\10\ in general, and furthers the
objectives of Sections 6(b)(4) and(5) of the Act,\11\ in particular,
because it provides for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees, and other charges among its members, issuers and other persons
using its facilities and does not unfairly discriminate between
customers, issuers, brokers or dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4) and (5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes it is reasonable to eliminate credits and
fees associated with STP Modifiers and Market Data Revenue Sharing
Credits when such fees and credits become obsolete. In particular, the
Exchange believes that the proposed rule change to eliminate the
credits and fees associated with STP Modifiers is reasonable because
this activity has become revenue neutral since the Exchange
standardized the credits and fees associated with the STPC and STPD
Modifiers in 2018. While ETP Holders may continue to utilize this
functionality, they are no longer subject to any fees or credits for
doing so. The Exchange notes that no other market provides for fees and
credits associated with the use of STP Modifiers and this proposed rule
change would align the Exchange's billing practice with those of its
competitors. Additionally, the Exchange believes that the proposed rule
change to eliminate the Market Data Revenue Sharing Credits program
applicable to Cross Orders is reasonable because, with the elimination
of Cross Orders, the Exchange no longer generates revenue to share with
ETP Holders under the program.
    The Exchange believes that amending the Fee Schedule to remove
credits and fees associated with STP Modifiers and to remove the Market
Data Revenue Sharing Credits for Cross Orders that are no longer
functional would promote the protection of investors and the public
interest because it would promote clarity and transparency in the Fee
Schedule.
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule changes are reasonable
because they would also streamline the Fee Schedule by deleting
obsolete rule text. The Exchange believes deleting

obsolete rule text would promote clarity to the Fee Schedule and reduce
confusion to ETP Holders as to which fees and credits are applicable to
their trading activity on the Exchange. The Exchange believes it is
reasonable to delete the obsolete fees and credits from the Fee
Schedule and thereby, streamline the Fee Schedule, to promote clarity
and reduce confusion as to the applicability of fees and credits that
ETP Holders would be subject to. The Exchange believes deleting
obsolete fees and credits would also simplify the Fee Schedule.
    The Exchange believes that deleting obsolete fees and credits from
the Fee Schedule is equitable and not unfairly discriminatory because
the resulting streamlined Fee Schedule would continue to apply to ETP
Holders as it does currently because the Exchange is not adopting any
new fees or credits or removing any current fees or credits from the
Fee Schedule that impact ETP Holders. All ETP Holders would continue to
be subject to the same fees and credits that currently apply to them.
    For the foregoing reasons, the Exchange believes that the proposal
is consistent with the Act.

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

    In accordance with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,\12\ the Exchange
believes that the proposed rule change would not impose any burden on
competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the
purposes of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(8).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Intramarket Competition. The Exchange's proposal to delete obsolete
fees and credits from the Fee Schedule will not place any undue burden
on intramarket competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act because all ETP Holders would
continue to be subject to the same fees and credits that currently
apply to them. To the extent the proposed rule change places a burden
on competition, any such burden would be outweighed by the fact that a
streamlined Fee Schedule would promote clarity and reduce confusion
with respect to the fees and credits that ETP Holders would be subject
to.
    Intermarket Competition. The Exchange believes the proposed rule
change does not impose any burden on intermarket competition that is
not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
The Exchange operates in a highly competitive market in which market
participants can readily choose to send their orders to other exchanges
and off-exchange venues if they deem fee levels at those other venues
to be more favorable. Market share statistics provide ample evidence
that price competition between exchanges is fierce, with liquidity and
market share moving freely from one execution venue to another in
reaction to pricing changes.

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

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

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

    The foregoing rule change is effective upon filing pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A) \13\ of the Act and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule
19b-4 \14\ thereunder, because it establishes a due, fee, or other
charge imposed by the Exchange.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \14\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such 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 under
Section 19(b)(2)(B) \15\ of the Act to determine whether the proposed
rule change should be approved or disapproved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

Background

    The FAA is planning to decommission the VOR portion of the Buffalo,
NY (BUF), VOR/DME in December 2020. The Buffalo VOR was one of the
candidate VORs identified for discontinuance by the FAA's VOR MON
program and listed in the Final policy statement notice, ``Provision of
Navigation Services for the Next Generation Air Transportation System
(NextGen) Transition to Performance-Based Navigation (PBN) (Plan for
Establishing a VOR Minimum Operational Network),'' published in the
Federal Register of July 26, 2016 (81 FR 48694), Docket No. FAA-2011-
1082. Although the VOR portion of the Buffalo VOR/DME NAVAID is planned
for decommissioning, the DME portion of the NAVAID is being retained to
support Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen)

Performance Based Navigation (PBN) flight procedure requirements. The
ATS routes affected by the Buffalo VOR decommissioning are VOR Federal
airways V-2, V-14, V-31, V-33, V-36, V-84, V-164, V-252, and V-510.
    With the planned decommissioning of the Buffalo VOR, the remaining
ground-based NAVAID coverage in the area is insufficient to enable the
continuity of the V-2, V-14, V-33, V-36, V-84, V-164, and V-510 airways
within the affected area. As a result, the proposed amendments to V-2,
V-14, V-36, and V-84 would result in the existing gaps in the airways
being expanded. The proposed amendments to V-33 and V-164 would result
in the airways ending (for V-33) and starting (for V-164) at the
previous or next NAVAID in the airways, respectively, and the proposed
amendment to V-510 would result in the airway segment located east of
the existing gap in the airway being removed. The remaining ground-
based NAVAID coverage in the area is sufficient to retain the
continuity of the V-31 and V-252 airways and the proposed amendments to
those airways would result in them remaining available for use as
charted.
    To overcome the proposed removal of the V-2, V-14, V-33, V-36, V-
84, V-164, and V-510 airway segments, instrument flight rules (IFR)
pilots could use adjacent VOR Federal airways, including V-31, V-119,
V-252, and V-270, or could request air traffic control (ATC) radar
vectors to fly through or circumnavigate the affected area. IFR pilots
equipped with area navigation (RNAV) PBN could also navigate point to
point using the existing fixes that will remain in place to support
continued operations though the affected area. Visual flight rules
(VFR) pilots who elect to navigate via the airways through the affected
area could also take advantage of the air traffic services previously
listed.
    Additionally, to overcome the loss of the Buffalo VOR component
radial in defining the last airway point (AIRCO fix) in V-31 and the
first airway point (AIRCO fix) in V-252, due to the planned
decommissioning of the Buffalo VOR, that radial is being changed while
the existing intersecting radials that make up the AIRCO fix in each
airway are being retained. The Buffalo VOR radial in the intersection
definition of the AIRCO fix in the V-31 and V-252 airway descriptions
is being amended to reflect the Jamestown, NY, VOR/DME 024[deg](T)/
032[deg](M) radial. IFR and VFR pilots who elect to navigate via the
airways will be able to continue using V-31 and V-252, as charted, in
the affected area.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to modify VOR Federal airways V-2, V-14,
V-31, V-33, V-36, V-84, V-164, V-252, and V-510 due to the planned
decommissioning of the VOR portion of the Buffalo, NY (BUF), VOR/DME.
The proposed VOR Federal airway actions are described below.
    V-2: V-2 currently extends between the Seattle, WA, VORTAC and the
intersection of the Nodine, MN, VORTAC 122[deg] and Waukon, IA, VOR/DME
053[deg] radials (WEBYE fix); and between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and
the Gardner, MA, VOR/DME. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment
between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and the Rochester, NY, VOR/DME.
Additional changes to other portions of the airway have been proposed
in a separate NPRM. The unaffected portions of the existing airway
would remain as charted.
    V-14: V-14 currently extends between the Chisum, NM, VORTAC and the
Flag City, OH, VORTAC; and between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and the
Norwich, CT, VOR/DME. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment
between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and the Geneseo, NY, VOR/DME. The
unaffected portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
    V-31: V-31 currently extends between the Patuxent, MD, VORTAC and
the Nottingham, MD, VORTAC; and between the Baltimore, MD, VORTAC and
the intersection of the Rochester, NY, VOR/DME 279[deg] and Buffalo,
NY, VOR/DME 023[deg] radials (AIRCO fix). The FAA proposes to amend the
AIRCO fix in the airway description to describe it as the intersection
of the existing Rochester VOR/DME 279[deg] radial and the Jamestown,
NY, VOR/DME 024[deg](T)/032[deg](M) radial. Additionally, the Patuxent,
MD, VORTAC airway point references would be corrected from ``Patuxent
River'' to ``Patuxent.'' The unaffected portions of the existing airway
would remain as charted.
    V-33: V-33 currently extends between the Harcum, VA, VORTAC and the
Nottingham, MD, VORTAC; and between the Baltimore, MD, VORTAC and the
Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME. The airspace within R-4007A and R-4007B is
excluded. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment between the
Bradford, PA, VOR/DME and the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME. Additional changes
to other portions of the airway have been proposed in separate NPRMs
for Docket No. FAA-2017-0932 published in the Federal Register (82 FR
48011, October 16, 2017) and Docket No. FAA-2020-0049 published in the
Federal Register (85 FR 6115, February 4, 2020). The unaffected
portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
    V-36: V-36 currently extends between the Thunder Bay, ON, Canada,
VOR/DME and the intersection of the Wiarton, ON, Canada, VOR/DME
150[deg] and Toronto, ON, Canada, VOR/DME 304[deg] radials; and between
the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and the intersection of the LaGuardia, NY,
VOR/DME 310[deg] and Stillwater, NJ, VOR/DME 043[deg] radials. The
airspace within Canada is excluded. The FAA proposes to remove the
airway segment between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and the Elmira, NY,
VOR/DME. The unaffected portions of the existing airway would remain as
charted.
    V-84: V-84 currently extends between the Northbrook, IL, VOR/DME
and the Pullman, MI, VOR/DME; and between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and
the Syracuse, NY, VORTAC. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment
between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and the Geneseo, NY, VOR/DME. The
unaffected portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
    V-164: V-164 currently extends between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and
the East Texas, PA, VOR/DME. The FAA proposes to remove the airway
segment between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and the Wellsville, NY,
VORTAC. Additional changes to other portions of the airway have been
proposed in a separate NPRM for Docket No. FAA-2020-0049 published in
the Federal Register (85 FR 6115, February 4, 2020). The unaffected
portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
    V-252: V-252 currently extends between the intersection of the
Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME 023[deg] and Geneseo, NY, VOR/DME 305[deg] radials
(AIRCO fix) and the Dupont, DE, VORTAC. The FAA proposes to amend the
AIRCO fix in the airway description to describe it as the intersection
of the Jamestown, NY, VOR/DME 024[deg](T)/032[deg](M) radial and the
existing Geneseo, NY, VOR/DME 305[deg] radial. The unaffected portions
of the existing airway would remain as charted.
    V-510: V-510 currently extends between the Dickinson, ND, VORTAC
and the Dells, WI, VORTAC; and between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and the
Rochester, NY, VOR/DME. The FAA proposes to remove the airway segment
between the Buffalo, NY, VOR/DME and the Rochester, NY, VOR/DME. The
unaffected portions of the existing airway would remain as charted.
    All radials contained in the VOR Federal airway descriptions below
that are unchanged are stated in True

degrees. Radials that are stated in True (T) and Magnetic (M) degrees
are new computations based on available NAVAIDs.
    VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) of FAA Order
7400.11D dated August 8, 2019, and effective September 15, 2019, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The ATS routes listed in
this document would be subsequently published in the Order.
    FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
Department of Transportation (DOT) Regulatory Policies and Procedures
(44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation
of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal.
Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule,
when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

Index of Legally Marketed Unapproved New Animal Drugs for Minor
Species--21 CFR Part 516

OMB Control Number 0910-0620--Extension

    The Minor Use and Minor Species Animal Health Act of 2004 (MUMS
Act) amended the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) to
authorize FDA to establish new regulatory procedures intended to make
more medications legally available to veterinarians and animal owners
for the treatment of minor animal species (species other than cattle,
horses, swine, chickens, turkeys, dogs, and cats), as well as uncommon
diseases in major animal species.
    Section 572 of the MUMS Act provided for a public index listing of
legally marketed unapproved new animal drugs for minor species. FDA
regulations in part 516 (21 CFR part 516) specify, among other things,
the criteria and procedures for requesting eligibility for indexing and
for requesting addition to the index as well as the annual reporting
requirements for index holders.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:
