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

    FINRA is proposing to extend, to March 25, 2019, the implementation
date of the amendments to FINRA Rule 4210 (Margin Requirements)
pursuant to SR-FINRA-2015-036, other than the amendments pursuant to
SR-FINRA-2015-036 that were implemented on December 15, 2016. The
proposed rule change would not make any changes to FINRA rules.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on FINRA's
website at http://www.finra.org, at the principal office of FINRA 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, FINRA 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. FINRA 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
    On October 6, 2015, FINRA filed with the Commission proposed rule
change SR-FINRA-2015-036, which proposed to amend FINRA Rule 4210 to
establish margin requirements for (1) To Be Announced (``TBA'')
transactions, inclusive of adjustable rate mortgage (``ARM'')
transactions; (2) Specified Pool Transactions; and (3) transactions in
Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (``CMOs''), issued in conformity
with a program of an agency or Government-Sponsored Enterprise
(``GSE''), with forward settlement dates, as defined more fully in the
filing (collectively, ``Covered Agency Transactions''). The Commission
approved SR-FINRA-2015-036 on June 15, 2016 (the ``Approval Date'').\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 78081 (June 15,
2016), 81 FR 40364 (June 21, 2016) (Notice of Filing of Amendment
No. 3 and Order Granting Accelerated Approval to a Proposed Rule
Change to Amend FINRA Rule 4210 (Margin Requirements) to Establish
Margin Requirements for the TBA Market, as Modified by Amendment
Nos. 1, 2, and 3; File No. SR-FINRA-2015-036).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to Partial Amendment No. 3 to SR-FINRA-2015-036, FINRA
announced in Regulatory Notice 16-31 that the rule change would be
become effective on December 15, 2017, 18 months from the Approval
Date, except that the risk limit determination requirements as set
forth in paragraphs (e)(2)(F), (e)(2)(G) and (e)(2)(H) of Rule 4210 and
in new Supplementary Material .05, each as respectively amended or
established by SR-FINRA-2015-036 (collectively, the ``risk limit
determination requirements''), would become effective on December 15,
2016, six months from the Approval Date.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Partial Amendment No. 3 to SR-FINRA-2015-036 and
Regulatory Notice 16-31 (August 2016), both available at:
www.finra.org.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Industry participants sought clarification regarding the
implementation of the requirements pursuant to SR-FINRA-2015-036.
Industry participants also requested additional time to make system
changes necessary to comply with the requirements, including time to
test the system changes, and requested additional time to update or
amend margining agreements and related documentation. In response,
FINRA made available a set of Frequently Asked Questions & Guidance \6\
and, pursuant to SR-FINRA-2017-029,\7\ extended the implementation date
of the requirements of SR-FINRA-2015-036 to June 25, 2018 (the ``June
25, 2018 implementation date''), except for the risk limit
determination requirements, which, as announced in Regulatory Notice
16-31, became effective on December 15, 2016.

staff of the SEC's Division of Trading and Markets made available a
set of Frequently Asked Questions regarding Exchange Act Rule 15c3-1
and Rule 15c3-3 in connection with Covered Agency Transactions under
FINRA Rule 4210, also available at: www.finra.org/industry/guidance.
    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 81722 (September 26,
2017), 82 FR 45915 (October 2, 2017) (Notice of Filing and Immediate
Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change to Delay the Implementation
Date of Certain Amendments to FINRA Rule 4210 Approved Pursuant to
SR-FINRA-2015-036; File No. SR-FINRA-2017-029); see also Regulatory
Notice 17-28 (September 29, 2017).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Industry participants have requested that FINRA reconsider the
potential impact of certain requirements pursuant to SR-FINRA-2015-036
on smaller and medium-sized firms. Industry participants have also
requested that FINRA extend the June 25, 2018 implementation date
pending such reconsideration to reduce potential uncertainty in the
Covered Agency Transaction market. FINRA stated in Partial Amendment
No. 3 to SR-FINRA-2015-036 that FINRA would monitor the impact of the
requirements pursuant to that rulemaking and, if the requirements prove
overly onerous or otherwise are shown to negatively impact the market,
FINRA would consider revisiting such requirements as may be necessary
to mitigate the rule's impact.\8\ FINRA believes, in the interest of
avoiding unnecessary disruption to the Covered Agency Transaction
market, that it is appropriate to consider potential revisions to the
requirements pursuant to SR-FINRA-2015-036 and is proposing to extend
the June 25, 2018 implementation date to March 25, 2019 while FINRA
considers, in consultation with industry participants and other
regulators, whether any revisions are appropriate. FINRA notes that the
risk limit determination requirements pursuant to SR-FINRA-2015-036
became effective on December 15, 2016 and, as such, the implementation
of such requirements is not affected by the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Partial Amendment No. 3 to SR-FINRA-2015-036, available
at: www.finra.org.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FINRA has filed the proposed rule change for immediate
effectiveness and has requested that the Commission waive the
requirement that the proposed rule change not become operative for 30
days after the date of the filing. The operative date will be the date
of filing of the proposed rule change.
2. Statutory Basis
    FINRA believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act,\9\ which requires, among
other things, that FINRA rules must be designed to prevent fraudulent
and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, and, in general, to protect investors and the
public interest. FINRA believes that the proposed rule change provides
FINRA additional time to consider whether any revisions to the
requirements pursuant to SR-FINRA-2015-036 are appropriate and helps to
reduce potential uncertainty in the Covered Agency Transaction market
while FINRA considers such revisions. FINRA believes that providing
additional time is consistent with the Act because this provides FINRA,
in consultation with industry participants and other regulators,
additional opportunity to consider whether revisions to the
requirements would improve their effectiveness and thereby protect
investors and the public interest by helping to promote stability in
the Covered Agency Transaction market.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    FINRA does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. FINRA believes that extending
the June 25, 2018 implementation date to March 25, 2019, so as to
provide additional time for FINRA to consider, in consultation with
industry participants and other regulators, whether any revisions to
the requirements pursuant to SR-FINRA-2015-036 are appropriate will
benefit all parties.

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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor 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) of the Act \10\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6) thereunder.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii)
requires FINRA to give the Commission written notice of FINRA's
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 filing of the proposed rule change, or
such shorter time as designated by the Commission. FINRA has
satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \12\ normally
does not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing.
However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\13\ the Commission may
designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest. FINRA has asked the
Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that the proposal may
become operative upon filing. FINRA has stated that the purpose of the
proposed rule change is to allow FINRA additional time to consider
potential revisions to the requirements pursuant to SR-FINRA-2015-036
and to consult with industry participants and other regulators whether
any revisions are appropriate, in the interest of avoiding unnecessary
disruption to the Covered Agency Transaction market. The Commission
believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest because the proposal to
extend the implementation date of certain amendments to FINRA Rule 4210
does not raise any new or novel issues and will help to facilitate the
implementation of the margin requirements for Covered Agency
Transactions. Furthermore, the Commission understands that market
participants have expressed support for the extension of the
implementation date in order to give FINRA time to determine, in
consultation with market participants and other interested parties,
whether changes to the amendments are appropriate, and if so, what
those changes should be.\14\ Therefore, the Commission hereby waives
the 30-day operative delay requirement and designates the proposed rule
change as operative upon filing.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \13\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \14\ See, e.g., Letter from Chris Killian, Managing Director,
SIFMA (March 7, 2018), available at: www.sec.gov.
    \15\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,
the Commission has also considered the proposed rule's impact on
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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.

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

39- 19739; AD 2019-19-03]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Embraer S.A. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Embraer S.A. Model ERJ 170 airplanes; Model ERJ 190-100 STD, -
100 LR, -100 ECJ, and -100 IGW airplanes; and Model ERJ 190-200 STD, -
200 LR, and -200 IGW airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of the
ram air turbine (RAT) compartment door seal peeling off and tangling up
on the RAT rotor during flight test. This AD requires a general visual
inspection for peeling-off of the RAT compartment door seal, bonding if
necessary, and the rework of the RAT compartment door seal attachment.
The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    The Ag[ecirc]ncia Nacional de Avia[ccedil][atilde]o Civil (ANAC),
which is the aviation authority for Brazil, has issued Brazilian AD
2019-02-02, dated February 28, 2019 (referred to after this as the
Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to
correct an unsafe condition for certain Embraer S.A. Model ERJ 170
airplanes; Model ERJ 190-100 STD, -100 LR, -100 ECJ, and -100 IGW
airplanes; and Model ERJ 190-200 STD, -200 LR, and -200 IGW airplanes.
You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2019-
0325.
    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Embraer S.A.
Model ERJ 170 airplanes; Model ERJ 190-100 STD, -100 LR, -100 ECJ, and
-100 IGW airplanes; and Model ERJ 190-200 STD, -200 LR, and -200 IGW
airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on May 29, 2019
(84 FR 24730). The NPRM was prompted by reports of the RAT compartment
door seal peeling off and tangling up on the RAT rotor during flight
test. The NPRM proposed to require a general visual inspection for
peeling-off of the RAT compartment door seal, bonding if necessary, and
the rework of the RAT compartment door seal attachment.
    The FAA is issuing this AD to address the possible loss of the RAT
function, which, when associated with an emergency electrical event,
can result in the loss of airplane controllability. See the MCAI for
additional background information.

Comments

    The FAA gave the public the opportunity to participate in
developing this final rule. The following presents the comments
received on the NPRM and the FAA's response to each comment. The Air
Line Pilots Association, International (ALPA) expressed support for the
NPRM.

Request To Extend Compliance Time

    JetBlue Airways and SkyWest Airlines Inc. requested an extension of
the compliance time in paragraph (g)(1) of the proposed AD from 750
flight hours to 2,500 flight hours or 12 months. The commenters
asserted that the new interval would align with the scheduled
Maintenance Review Board tasks on the RAT, and that performing the AD
at the same time as scheduled tasks would decrease the logistical
burden of compliance.
    The FAA disagrees with the commenters' request because the proposal
contains no justification to show that an acceptable level of safety
would be maintained. The FAA may, however, consider approving a longer
compliance time as an alternative method of compliance (AMOC) with
paragraph (g)(1) of this AD if sufficient substantiation is provided to
show an acceptable level of safety. This AD has not been changed in
this regard.

Conclusion

    The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments
received, and determined that air safety and the public interest
require adopting this final rule as proposed, except for minor
editorial changes. The FAA has determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Embraer S.A. has issued Service Bulletin SB170-53-0142, Revision
01, dated December 12, 2018; Service Bulletin SB190-53-0098, Revision
01, dated December 12, 2018; and Service Bulletin SB190LIN-53-0072,
Revision 01, dated January 9, 2019. This service information describes
procedures for an inspection of the RAT compartment door seal, bonding,
and rework of the RAT compartment door seal attachment, which includes
installing fasteners around the RAT door seal attachment. These
documents are distinct since they apply to different airplane models.
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.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 570 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this 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.
    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.
    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 transport category airplanes and
associated appliances to the Director of the System Oversight Division.

Regulatory Findings

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