Dear Mr. Paylor:

On August 17, 2007, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) received a revision to the Virginia State Implementation Plan (SIP) from the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (VADEQ).  This SIP revision consists of moving Fredericksburg 8-hour Ozone Nonattainment Area (Spotsylvania County, Stafford County, Fredericksburg City) and the Shenandoah National Park 8-hour Ozone Nonattainment Area (portions of the park located in Page and Madison Counties) from the list of nonattainment to the list of maintenance areas.    EPA has determined that the submittals are administratively and technically complete, and is reviewing them to prepare a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.

If members of your staff have any questions, they may direct them to Melissa Linden at<PHONE_NUMBER>.  She is the principal contact for this rulemaking.

	Sincerely,

						/s/

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

    The purpose of the proposed rule change is to harmonize and clarify
language within the DTC Service Guides regarding restrictions on use of
information and data distributed by DTC.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization'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 these
statements.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The Commission has modified the text of the summaries
prepared by DTC.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

(a) Proposal Overview
    As the central depository of securities in the U.S. securities
markets, DTC is the registered holder of securities on the books of
issuers of those securities (in its nominee name, Cede & Co.) and,
accordingly, receives information and data relating to those securities
from the issuers, for distribution to the DTC participants
(``Participants'') holding interests in such securities on the books of
DTC. As a further service to these Participants with respect to
securities held by DTC for their benefit, DTC additionally compiles
information from other sources to enhance data provided by it to its
Participants. The information and data so received and compiled by DTC
includes information such as descriptive reference data, names, country
of incorporation, exchange, dividend announcement and corporate action
announcement information on securities and other financial assets, as
further described in the applicable Service Guides which are being
amended by this rule filing, including, the Custody Service Guide, the
Deposits Service Guide, the Dividend Service Guide, the Money Market
Instruments Service Guide, the Redemptions Service Guide, the
Reorganization Service Guide, the Settlement Service Guide and the
Underwriting Service Guide (``Affected Service Guides''). Each of the
Affected Service Guides, except the Deposits Service Guide and the
Underwriting Service Guide, specifically provides that the information
and data so received and compiled by DTC may not be redistributed to
any other persons who, to a Participant's knowledge, use the
information as a basis for producing and distributing data or related
services. However, DTC has observed that these restrictions may require
some clarification.
Proposed Rule Changes
    By this filing DTC will harmonize the language regarding
restrictions on redistribution of data between all of the Affected
Service Guides as the described restrictions apply to all data and
information distributed by DTC through its services. In addition, DTC
is amending the text of each of the Affected Service Guides to clarify
that the data and information so received and compiled by DTC is
proprietary to DTC and shall not be used for commercial purposes by
Participants (or third parties acting on behalf of Participants) to
which the data and information is distributed by DTC. To the extent any
such person wishes to rightfully redistribute the data or information,
a further amendment to the Affected Service Guides will direct
interested Participants and third parties to DTCC Solutions, LLC, an
affiliate of DTC which, under service level agreements with DTC, is
licensed to further process and distribute such information and data
pursuant to appropriate agreements with Participants and third parties.
(b) Statutory Basis
    The proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of
Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act, and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to DTC as it does not adversely affect the
safeguarding of funds or securities in DTC's custody and control, or
for which it is responsible, but, rather, clarifies the procedures set
forth in the Affected Service Guides with respect to the use of data
and information received and compiled by DTC.

(B) Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

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

(C) Self-Regulatory Organization'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.

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

    The foregoing proposed rule change has become effective upon filing
pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) \6\ of the Act and Rule 19b-
4(f)(4)(i).\7\ 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.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc.; Notice of Filing of a Proposed Rule Change to Amend NASD
Rule 7010(k) Relating to Transaction Reporting and Compliance Engine
Transaction Data

January 26, 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 January 16, 2007, the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. (``NASD'') 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 substantially prepared by NASD.
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

    NASD is proposing to amend NASD Rule 7010(k) relating to
Transaction Reporting and Compliance Engine (``TRACE'') transaction
data to offer the ability to receive, for a reduced fee, a ``snapshot''
of real-time TRACE transaction data (``TRACE data'') once each day
rather than continuously throughout the day.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on NASD's Web
site at http://www.nasd.com/RulesRegulation/RuleFilings/2007RuleFilings/index.htm
, at NASD'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, NASD included statements
concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposal. The text of these
statements may be examined at the places specified in Item IV below.
NASD 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
    NASD proposes to amend its Rule 7010(k) to lower the fee related to
the receipt of TRACE data by persons opting to receive the data once a
day (``Snapshot TRACE data'') rather than on a continuous basis.
Specifically, NASD is proposing to amend Rule 7010(k)(3)(A)(ii) to
provide persons that choose to receive Snapshot TRACE data (``Snapshot
TRACE data Subscribers'') the option of paying $250 per month for the
receipt of Snapshot TRACE data rather than paying $1,500 per month to
receive TRACE data continuously throughout the day as is the case
today. A Snapshot TRACE data Subscriber would be able to choose the
specific time of day it would receive Snapshot TRACE data each day, and
NASD expects that many institutional Snapshot TRACE data Subscribers
would choose to receive Snapshot TRACE data at or shortly after 4 p.m.
(Eastern Standard Time) each day and use it to value certain positions
held in their investment portfolios.
    Today, NASD's TRACE data dissemination, and the fees charged for
it, contemplates only continuous intra-day dissemination of TRACE
data.\3\ However, based on discussions with certain TRACE data vendors
and institutional market participants, NASD believes that an additional
program of single intra-day or end-of-day price dissemination also
would be useful. This is especially true for those institutional
investors that need only one price per security per day to assign a
value to a particular position. Transaction data for these types of
position valuation purposes typically has been made available through
vendor services such as IDC and the Reuters Pricing Service. Vendors
usually charge for pricing requests for securities held in individual
portfolios either on a per-CUSIP basis or for a fixed monthly fee for a
specified group of securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ NASD has proposed adding the phrase ``receipt of
continuous'' to the text of Rule 7010(k)(3)(a)(ii) that today sets
forth the $1,500 per month fee for TRACE data to further clarify the
distinction between the current and proposed frequency of delivery
of TRACE data to persons subscribing to receive such data.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NASD believes, based on conversations its staff has undertaken with
certain vendors of TRACE data and certain institutional market
participants, that the current price charged to persons receiving TRACE
data continuously throughout the day ($1,500 per month) is
unnecessarily expensive for persons that would like to exclusively use
TRACE data to value portfolio positions. In this regard, NASD notes
that, to date, no institutional market participants have subscribed for
the receipt of TRACE data continuously throughout the day.
    If the proposed rule change is approved by the Commission, NASD
intends to work with third-party ``Retransmission Vendors'' that would
redistribute Snapshot TRACE data to Snapshot TRACE data Subscribers. As
is the case today with the distribution of TRACE data to desktop
display applications, NASD does not intend to develop its own
capabilities to distribute Snapshot TRACE data directly to Snapshot
TRACE data Subscribers.
    NASD believes that the proposed fee of $250 per month for Snapshot
TRACE data is reasonable, particularly as it is a charge more in line
with what NASD perceives to be the more tailored information
requirements of a subset of institutional market participants that
today are foregoing TRACE data at the higher costs per month for
continuous data.
    NASD would announce the effective date of the proposed rule change
in a Notice to Members to be published no later than 60 days following
Commission approval, if approval is given. The effective date would be
not later than 45 days following publication of the Notice to Members
announcing Commission approval.
2. Statutory Basis
    NASD believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act, which requires, among other
things, that NASD 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 and Section 15A(b)(5) of the Act, which requires, among
other things, that NASD rules provide for the equitable allocation of
reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among members and issuers and
other persons using any facility or system that NASD operates or
controls. NASD believes that offering Snapshot TRACE data for a reduced
charge should result in more persons subscribing to receive TRACE data
with a concomitant increase in market transparency resulting from the
wider dissemination and use of TRACE data.

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

    NASD does not believe that proposed rule change would 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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

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

    Within 35 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period (i) as the Commission may
designate up to 90 days of such date if it finds such longer period to
be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which NASD consents, the Commission will:
    (A) By order approve such proposed rule change, or
    (B) Institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.

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:

    Abstract: The Microbial Rules ICR examines public water system and
primacy agency burden and costs for recordkeeping and reporting
requirements in support of the microbial drinking water regulations.
The recordkeeping and reporting requirements are mandatory for
compliance with the Code of Federal Regulations (CFFR) at 40 CFR parts
141 and 142. The following microbial regulations are included: the
Surface Water Treatment Rule (SWTR), the Revised Total Coliform Rule
(RTCR), the Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (IESWTR), the
Filter Backwash Recycling Rule (FBRR), the Long Term 1 Enhanced Surface
Water Treatment Rule (LT1ESWTR), the Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water
Treatment Rule (LT2ESWTR), the Ground Water Rule (GWR) and the Aircraft
Drinking Water Rule (ADWR). Future microbial-related rulemakings will
be added to this consolidated ICR after the regulations are promulgated
and the initial, rule-specific, ICRs are due to expire.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Public water systems and primacy
agencies.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory for compliance with
40 CFR parts 141 and 142.
    Estimated number of respondents: 144,273 (total).
    Frequency of response: Varies by requirement (i.e., on occasion,
monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually).
    Total estimated burden: 15,020,711 hours (per year). Burden is
defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1,318,255,000 (per year), includes
$174,805,000 annualized capital or operation and maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 3,106,871 hours in
the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently
approved by OMB. This is due to the replacement of the original Total
Coliform Rule with the Revised Total Coliform Rule and updated system
inventories.

securities offerings under Regulation E (17 CFR 230.601 to 610a) to be
filed with the Commission at least five days (excluding weekends and
holidays) prior to its use.\1\ Regulation E allows the exemption of
securities issued by a small business investment company (``SBIC'')
which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940
(``Investment Company Act'') (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.) or a closed-end
investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business
development company (``BDC'') under the Investment Company Act from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (``Securities Act'') (15
U.S.C. 77a et seq.), so long as the aggregate offering price of all
securities of the issuer that may be sold within a 12-month period does
not exceed $5,000,000 and certain other conditions are met. Commission
staff reviews sales material filed under rule 607 for materially
misleading statements and omissions. The requirements of rule 607 are
designed for investor protection.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Sales material includes advertisements, articles or other
communications to be published in newspapers, magazines, or other
periodicals; radio and television scripts; and letters, circulars or
other written communications proposed to be sent given or otherwise
communicated to more than ten persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Respondents to this collection of information include SBICs and
BDCs making an offering of securities pursuant to Regulation E. Each
respondent's reporting burden under rule 607 relates to the burden
associated with filing its sales material electronically. The burden of
filing electronically, however, is negligible and there have been no
filings made under this rule, so this collection of information does
not impose any burden on the industry. The estimate of average burden
hours is made solely for purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act and is
not derived from a quantitative, comprehensive, or even representative
survey or study of the burdens associated with Commission rules and
forms.
    The requirements of this collection of information are mandatory.
Responses will not be kept confidential. 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 control number.
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including whether the information will
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of
the burden of the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on
respondents, including through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information technology. Consideration will
be given to comments and suggestions submitted in writing within 60
days of this publication.

[Docket No. FAA-2018-0850; Airspace Docket No. 18-AWP-17]
RIN 2120-AA66

Amendment of Multiple Air Traffic Service (ATS) Routes; Western
United States

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action amends three domestic VHF Omnidirectional Range
(VOR) Federal airways (V-113, V-137, and V-485) in the Western United
States. The modifications are necessary due to the planned
decommissioning of Priest, CA, VOR navigation aid (NAVAID), which
provides navigation guidance for portions of the affected air traffic
service (ATS) routes. The Priest, CA, VOR is being decommissioned as
part of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational Network (MON) program.

DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, July 16, 2020. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under
Title 1 Code of Federal Regulations part 51, subject to the annual
revision of FAA Order 7400.11 and publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. 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. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the
efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority as it supports amending the air traffic service route
structure in the western United States to maintain the efficient flow
of air traffic.

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal
Register for Docket No. FAA-2018-0850 (83 FR 63603; December 11, 2018),
amending three Domestic VOR Federal airways (V-113, V-1137 and V-485)
in the Western United States. Interested parties were invited to
participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on
the proposal. No comments were received.
    Domestic 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 Domestic
VOR Federal airways listed in this document will be subsequently
published in the Order.
    FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on September 15.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.11D, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 8, 2019, and effective September 15,
2019. FAA Order 7400.11D is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11D lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

Differences From the NPRM

    The NPRM stated V-113 would remain unchanged after the Panoche, CA,
VORTAC. The proposed new route in the NPRM inadvertently left out a
portion of the route after the Panoche, CA, VORTCAC before the Linden,
CA, VOR/DME due to a clerical error. The portion is reinserted back
into the ATS route for continuity of the ATS route. The amended portion
after Panoche, CA, is ``intersection Modesto 208[deg] and El Nido
298[deg] radials (PATYY intersection) to Modesto, CA, VOR/DME'' and
then tie back into the Linden, CA, VOR/DME.

The Rule

    The FAA is amending Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 by amending domestic VOR Federal airways V-113, V-137 and V-
485. The route changes are outlined below.
    V-113: V-113 is amended between the Paso Robles, CA, VORTAC and the
Panoche, CA, VORTAC causing a gap in the route. The new route stops at
the Paso Robles, CA, VORTAC and resumes at the Panoche, CA, VORTAC. The
unaffected portion of the existing route will remain as charted and as
outlined in the differences to the NPRM.
    V-137: V-137 is amended between the Avenal, CA, VOR/DME and the
Salinas, CA, VORTAC. The new route will end at the Avenal, CA, VOR/DME.
The unaffected portion of the existing route will remain as charted.
    V-485: V-485 is amended between the Fellows, CA, VOR/DME and the
San Jose, CA, VOR/DME. The new route will end at the Fellows, CA, VOR/
DME. The unaffected portion of the existing route will remain as
charted.
    All radials in the route descriptions are unchanged and stated in
True degrees.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this 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 only affects air traffic procedures
and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated,
does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action of amending three Domestic
VOR Federal airways (V-113, V-137 and V-485) qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act and its
implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 1500, and in accordance with
FAA Order 1050.1F--Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,
paragraph 5-6.5a, which categorically excludes from further
environmental impact review rulemaking actions that designate or modify
classes of airspace areas, airways, routes, and reporting points (see
14 CFR part 71, Designation of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas;
Air Traffic Service Routes; and Reporting Points). As such, this action
is not expected to cause any potentially significant environmental
impacts. In accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5-2 regarding
Extraordinary Circumstances, this action has been reviewed for factors
and circumstances in which a normally categorically excluded action may
have a significant environmental impact requiring further analysis, and
it is determined that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant
preparation of an environmental assessment.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-82920; File No. SR-ISE-2018-20]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Nasdaq ISE, LLC; Notice of Filing
and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Amend the Market
Maker Plus Program in the Schedule of Fees

March 22, 2018.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on March 13, 2018, Nasdaq ISE, LLC (``ISE'' or ``Exchange'') filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (``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

    The Exchange proposes to amend the Market Maker Plus program in the
Schedule of Fees.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
website at http://ise.cchwallstreet.com/, at the principal office of
the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

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

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

1. Purpose
    The Exchange operates a Market Maker Plus program for regular
orders in Select Symbols \3\ whereby Market Makers \4\ that contribute
to market quality by maintaining tight markets are eligible for
enhanced rebates. The purpose of the proposed rule change is to amend:
(1) The expirations that are used to evaluate a Market Maker's
performance and hence eligibility for rebates, and (2) the process for
excluding certain days from the Market Maker Plus calculation. The
Exchange believes that these proposed changes will encourage Market
Makers to make quality markets in Select Symbols and thereby further
the goals of the Market Maker Plus program.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ ``Select Symbols'' are options overlying all symbols listed
on the Nasdaq ISE that are in the Penny Pilot Program.
    \4\ The term ``Market Makers'' refers to ``Competitive Market
Makers'' and ``Primary Market Makers'' collectively. See ISE Rule
100(a)(28).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Market Maker orders in Select Symbols are charged a maker fee of
$0.10 per contract; \5\ provided that Market Makers that qualify for
Market Maker Plus will not pay this fee if they meet the applicable
tier thresholds set forth in the table below, and will instead receive
the rebates described in the table based on the applicable tier for
which they qualify.\6\ The Exchange is not proposing to amend the
Market Maker Plus rebates, which will remain unchanged, but proposes to
make changes to the process for evaluating Market Makers for achieving
Market Maker Plus status.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ This fee also applies to Market Maker orders sent to the
Exchange by Electronic Access Members.
    \6\ A $0.10 per contract fee applies instead of the applicable
Market Maker Plus rebate when trading against Priority Customer
complex orders that leg into the regular order book. There will be
no fee charged or rebate provided when trading against non-Priority
Customer complex orders that leg into the regular order book.

    A Market Maker Plus is defined in the Schedule of Fees as a Market
Maker who is on the National Best Bid or National Best Offer (``NBBO'')
a specified percentage of the time for series trading between $0.03 and
$3.00 (for options whose underlying stock's previous trading day's last
sale price was less than or equal to $100) and between $0.10 and $3.00
(for options whose underlying stock's previous trading day's last sale
price was greater than $100) in premium in each of the front two
expiration months.\8\ Performance in each of the front two expiration
months is measured daily, and would include all available expirations
from the that trading day up to and including the first monthly
expiration (i.e., the 1st front expiration month), and all expirations
after the first monthly expiration up to and including the second
monthly expiration (i.e., the 2nd front expiration month). At the end
of the month, the Exchange calculates a monthly average based on daily
performance in each of these two buckets, and Market Makers that meet
the specified percentage of time at the NBBO in both buckets will
qualify for the associated Market Maker Plus rebate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Market Makers that qualify for Market Maker Plus Tiers 2-4
for executions in SPY or QQQ may be eligible for a linked maker
rebate in addition to the regular maker rebate for the applicable
tier. Linked maker rebate applies to executions in SPY or QQQ if the
Market Maker does not achieve the applicable tier in that symbol but
achieves the tier (i.e., any of Market Maker Plus Tiers 2-4) for any
badge/suffix combination in the other symbol, in which case the
higher tier achieved applies to both symbols. The regular maker
rebate will be provided in the symbol that qualifies the Market
Maker for the higher tier based on percentage of time at the NBBO.
    \8\ Market Makers may enter quotes in a symbol using one or more
unique, exchange assigned identifiers--i.e., badge/suffix
combinations. Market Maker Plus status is calculated independently
based on quotes entered in a symbol for each of the Market Maker's
badge/suffix combinations, and the highest tier achieved for any
badge/suffix combination quoting that symbol applies to executions
across all badge/suffix combinations that the member uses to trade
in that symbol.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In practice, using the front two expiration months to measure
performance means that a Market Maker's performance is evaluated based
on a shrinking number of contracts as the trading day approaches the
monthly expiration date. For example, on February 1, 2018, a Market
Maker's performance in symbol AAPL would have been measured in a number
of weekly and monthly expirations leading up to and including the
February monthly expiration (i.e., for the 1st front expiration month),
and similarly in a number of weekly and monthly expirations beginning
after the February monthly expiration up to and including the March
monthly expiration (i.e., for the 2nd front expiration month). On
February 15, 2018, however, the 1st front expiration month would
include only one expiration--i.e., the February 16, 2018 monthly
contract that expires the next day. The Exchange believes that this
frustrates the goals of the Market Maker Plus program as Market Makers
need to maintain quotes at the NBBO in a more limited number of
expirations as the next monthly expiration approaches, and will not get
credit for maintaining tight quotes in other expirations that are not
included.
    The Exchange therefore proposes to change its Market Maker Plus
methodology to ensure that a full month's worth of expirations are
always included in each bucket for the Market Maker Plus calculation.
Specifically, the Exchange proposes to amend the Market Maker Plus
language to provide that: ``Market Makers are evaluated each trading
day for the percentage of time spent on the National Best Bid or
National Best Offer (``NBBO'') for qualifying series that expire in two
successive thirty calendar day periods beginning on that trading day.''
Thus under the proposed methodology, on

February 15, 2018, the periods referenced above would include all
expirations: (1) From February 15, 2018 to March 17, 2018, and (2) from
March 18, 2018 to April 17, 2018. Furthermore, the Exchange proposes to
amend the definition of Market Maker Plus by clarifying that Market
Maker Plus status requires the Market Maker to meet the specified
percentage of time at the NBBO as a monthly average based on daily
performance in each of the two successive periods described above.\9\
Qualifying series will also be defined separately as series trading
between $0.03 and $3.00 (for options whose underlying stock's previous
trading day's last sale price was less than or equal to $100) and
between $0.10 and $3.00 (for options whose underlying stock's previous
trading day's last sale price was greater than $100) in premium--i.e.,
current language without the reference to the front two expiration
months, which the Exchange proposes to eliminate in connection with the
changes to the expiration periods used by the Exchange in the Market
Maker Plus calculation.\10\ Finally, the Exchange proposes to add
language that emphasizes that if a Market Maker would qualify for a
different Market Maker Plus tier in each of the two successive periods
described above, then the lower of the two Market Maker Plus tier
rebates shall apply to all contracts. The proposed changes would add
transparency around the process for evaluating Market Maker Pus
status--i.e., by including more operational language that describes how
performance is measured--and change the process to ensure that an
appropriate number of expirations are included in the calculation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The current language contains a reference to the ``National
Best Bid or National Best Offer,'' which the Exchange proposes to
change to ``NBBO,'' based on defining NBBO as National Best Bid or
National Best Offer in the immediately preceding sentence.
    \10\ The Exchange proposes to remove all references to the front
two expiration months in the Market Maker Plus description (e.g., in
the section on excluding certain days from the Market Maker Plus
calculation). Where applicable the Exchange will refer instead to
the proposed thirty calendar day periods.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, the Schedule of Fees provides that a Market Maker's
single best and single worst quoting days each month,\11\ on a per
symbol basis, will be excluded in calculating whether a Market Maker
qualifies for the Market Maker Plus rebate, if doing so will qualify a
Market Maker for the rebate.\12\ While this provision is intended to
aid Market Makers in achieving Market Maker Plus status, and therefore
only applies if better for the Market Maker (i.e., if excluding these
days will qualify the Market Maker for the rebate), it may provide a
disincentive for Market Makers to increase their performance at the end
of the month to meet a higher tier as the Market Maker's best quoting
day may be removed in addition to the worst. For example, a Market
Maker that is on the border between Tier 1 and Tier 2 on the last
trading day of the month based on time at the NBBO could attempt to
reach the higher tier by quoting more aggressively on that day but
would not be incentivized to do if the day would simply be removed as
the best quoting day for the month. The Exchange therefore proposes to
remove only the Market Maker's worst quoting day. Since this means that
removing the day will always be beneficial to the Market Maker, the
Exchange also proposes to remove the language related to excluding the
day only if doing so will qualify a Market Maker for the rebate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ The current language in the Schedule of Fees contains a
reference to the expirations used in the calculation, which are
being changed in this proposed rule change. See id.
    \12\ Other than days where the Exchange closes early for holiday
observance, any day that the market is not open for the entire
trading day or the Exchange instructs members in writing to route
their orders to other markets may also be excluded from the Market
Maker Plus tier calculation; provided that the Exchange will only
remove the day for members that would have a lower time at the NBBO
for the specified series with the day included.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section
6(b) of the Act,\13\ in general, and furthers the objectives of
Sections 6(b)(4) and 6(b)(5) of the Act,\14\ in particular, in that it
provides for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and
other charges among members and issuers and other persons using any
facility, and is not designed to permit unfair discrimination between
customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \14\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4) and (5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that the proposed changes to the periods used
for the Market Maker Plus calculation are reasonable and equitable as
this change is designed to encourage Market Makers to make quality
markets in Select Symbols and thereby further the goal of the Market
Maker Plus program. Currently, the Market Maker Plus program requires
that Market Makers show their commitment to market quality by quoting
at the NBBO a specified percentage of time in certain series in the
front two expiration months--i.e., all available expirations from the
trading day up to and including the first monthly expiration, and all
expirations after the first monthly expiration up to and including the
second monthly expiration. Because the Exchange measures performance
using the front two expiration months, Market Makers have to quote a
more limited subset of expirations as the trading day approaches a
monthly expiration. The Exchange believes that it is preferable to
evaluate performance based on two successive thirty calendar day
periods so that as the monthly expiration approaches, Market Makers
will nevertheless be able to qualify for Market Maker Plus by
maintaining quotes at the NBBO in a number of available expirations.
The Exchange believes that this balances the benefit provided by Market
Maker Plus rebates with an appropriately demonstrated commitment to
market quality. Furthermore, the proposed language also describes the
operation of the Market Maker Plus calculation, which is evaluated each
trading day and then computed as a monthly average based on daily
performance. And finally, the proposed language makes other clarifying
changes to the language, such as separately defining qualifying series
based on language already included in the Market Maker Plus section of
the Schedule of Fees, and reinforcing that the Market Maker Plus
program requires a Market Maker to achieve the applicable tier in both
of the two successive periods, meaning that if a Market Maker is in a
different tier for each of the proposed expiration buckets, then the
lower tier of rebate would apply to all contracts. The Exchange
believes that adding this detail to the Schedule of Fees in connection
with the change of the expirations used for the calculation will
further increase transparency around the operation of this program. The
Exchange also believes that the proposed changes are equitable and not
unfairly discriminatory as all Market Makers can qualify for Market
Maker Plus by meeting program requirements that are designed to
incentivize Market Markets to maintain quality markets. Furthermore,
the Exchange believes that the benefits to market quality that may
result from Market Makers being required to maintain quotes at the NBBO
in a number of expirations will flow to all market participants that
trade on the Exchange.
    In addition, the Exchange believes that the proposed change to the
days excluded from the Market Maker Plus calculation is reasonable and
equitable as not removing the best day will make it easier for Market
Makers to achieve

higher tiers of Market Maker Plus. More specifically, this change is
designed to permit Market Makers to aim for a higher tier at the end of
month without potentially removing one of those trading days from the
calculation if it is the Market Maker's best quoting day for the month.
The Exchange believes that this will allow Market Makers to quote more
aggressively at the end of the month in order to qualify for a higher
tier of Market Maker Plus, and thereby contribute to market quality in
Select Symbols. Furthermore, with the change described above, the
Exchange believes that it is reasonable and equitable now to remove the
language about removing the day only when doing so will qualify the
Market Maker for the rebate. This language is no longer needed since
removing the worst day will always be better for the Market Maker.
Finally, the Exchange believes that these changes are equitable and not
unfairly discriminatory as all Market Makers will be subject to the
same qualification criteria for Market Maker Plus. The proposed fee
changes described in this proposed rule change are applicable solely to
Market Makers as the Market Maker Plus program, which is designed to
encourage Market Makers to maintain quality markets, applies only to
these members. The Exchange continues to believe that it is not
unfairly discriminatory to offer rebates under this program only to
Market Makers since Market Makers, and, in particular, those Market
Makers that achieve Market Maker Plus status, are subject to additional
requirements and obligations (such as quoting requirements) that other
market participants are not.

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed fee changes are
pro-competitive as they are designed to encourage Market Makers to make
quality markets in Select Symbols. The Exchange believes that the
Market Maker Plus program will continue to encourage competition by
incentivizing Market Makers to provide liquidity and maintain tight
markets in Select Symbols. The Exchange operates in a highly
competitive market in which market participants can readily favor
competing venues if they deem fee levels at a particular venue to be
excessive, or rebate opportunities available at other venues to be more
favorable. In such an environment, the Exchange must continually adjust
its fees to remain competitive. Because competitors are free to modify
their own fees in response, and because market participants may readily
adjust their order routing practices, the Exchange believes that the
degree to which fee changes in this market may impose any burden on
competition is extremely limited.

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

Amendment 39-18603; AD 2016-16-05]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Fokker Services B.V. Airplanes

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

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Fokker Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000
airplanes. This AD was prompted by a design review that revealed a hot
spot may develop in the main fuel tank under certain failure conditions
of the solenoid of the level control pilot valve, the reed switch of
the main tank overflow valve, the level float switch of the collector
tank, or the solenoid of the main tank fueling shut-off valve. This AD
requires installing fuses in the wiring of the solenoid of the level
control pilot valve, the reed switch of the main tank overflow valve,
the level float switch of the collector tank, and the solenoid of the
main tank fueling shut-off valve, as applicable. This AD also requires
accomplishing concurrent actions and revising the airplane maintenance
or inspection program, as applicable, by incorporating fuel
airworthiness limitation items and critical design configuration
control limitations (CDCCLs). We are issuing this AD to prevent an
ignition source in the main fuel tank vapor space, which could result
in a fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective September 8, 2016.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of September 8,
2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to all Fokker Services B.V.
Model F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 airplanes. The NPRM
published in the Federal Register on January 20, 2016 (81 FR 3042)
(``the NPRM'').
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2014-0107, dated May 7, 2014 (referred to after
this the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the
MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for all Fokker Services B.V.
Model F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Prompted by an accident * * *, the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) published Special Federal Aviation Regulation
(SFAR) 88 [(66 FR 23086, May 7, 2001)], and the Joint Aviation
Authorities (JAA) published Interim Policy INT/POL/25/12.
    The review conducted by Fokker Services on the Fokker F28 design
in response to these regulations revealed that, under certain
failure conditions of the solenoid of the level control pilot valve,
the main tank overflow valve reed switch, the collector tank level
float switch or the main tank fuelling shut-off valve solenoid, a
hot spot may develop in the tank.
    This condition, if not corrected, could create an ignition
source in the main tank vapour space, possibly resulting in a fuel
tank explosion and consequent loss of the aeroplane.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, Fokker Services
developed a modification to the wiring (installation of fuses) of
the affected components.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires the
installation of fuses in the wiring of the affected components [the
solenoid of the level control pilot valve, the reed switch of the
main tank overflow valve, the level float switch of the collector
tank, and the solenoid of the main tank fuelling shut-off valve]
and, subsequently, the implementation of the associated Critical
Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL) items [and revision
of the maintenance or inspection program].
    More information on this subject can be found in Fokker Services
All Operators Message AOF28.038#02.

    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-2015-
8472.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM or on the determination of
the cost to the public.

Explanation of Changes Made to This AD

    We revised certain document citations throughout this AD to meet
the Office of the Federal Register's requirements for materials
incorporated by reference. These changes are for formatting purposes
and do not affect the requirements of this AD.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting this AD with the changes described
previously and minor editorial changes. We have determined that these
minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for correcting the unsafe condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that 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. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; and
    4. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

2015-8472; Directorate Identifier 2014-NM-106-AD.

(a) Effective Date

    This AD is effective September 8, 2016.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD affects AD 2011-17-03, Amendment 39-16767 (76 FR 50115,
August 12, 2011) (``AD 2011-17-03''); and AD 2011-21-01, Amendment
39-16824 (76 FR 63156, October 12, 2011) (``AD 2011-21-01'').

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to Fokker Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark 1000,

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 28, Fuel.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by a design review that revealed a hot spot
may develop in the main fuel tank under certain failure conditions
of the solenoid of the level control pilot valve, the reed switch of
the main tank overflow valve, the level float switch of the
collector tank, or the solenoid of the main tank fueling shut-off
valve. We are issuing this AD to prevent an ignition source in the
main fuel tank vapor space, which could result in a fuel tank
explosion and consequent loss of the airplane.
