I. Background

    On August 19, 2019, the EPA received revisions for R307-101-3,
General Requirements; Version of Code of Federal Regulations
Incorporated by Reference from the State of Utah. Revisions submitted
for R307-101-3 update the version of the 40 CFR used in a majority of
R307 rules adopted by the Utah Air Quality Board. This update allows
R307 rules that reference section R307-101-3 to update the
incorporation date with only one rule amendment. States periodically
updates their SIPs to incorporate by reference the most current 40 CFR
to correlate environmental regulations. This rule, as submitted by the
State, does not cover rules that specify their own date for the version
of the CFR that are incorporated by reference. We previously acted on
R307-101-3, where we had updated the CFR reference date, on July 11,
2019 (84 FR 27039) and received no comments.
    On December 16, 2019 the EPA received revisions for (1) R307-405-2.
Permits: Major Sources in Attainment or Unclassified Areas (PSD).
Applicability; and (2) R307-410-3 Permits. Emissions Impact Analysis.
The revisions submitted for R307-405-2 and R307-410-3 update the
version of the CFR that is incorporated by reference throughout the
Utah Air Quality rules. We previously acted on R307-405-2 on January
29, 2016 as a direct final rule and received no comments. The federal
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) permitting program in 40
CFR 52.21 is incorporated by reference in Rule R307-405 and the version
of the CFR is specified in sub-section R307-405-2. This rule change
updates the version of 40 CFR 52.21 that is incorporated in R307-405
from the July 1, 2011 version to the July 1, 2018 version.
    Finally, the EPA received revisions to R307-410-3 Permits:
Emissions Impact Analysis with the December 16, 2019 submittal. Section
R307-410-3 is amended to update the version of 40 CFR part 51, appendix
W incorporated by reference from the July 1, 2005 version to July 1,
2018. We originally acted on R307-410 on two separate occasions:
February 6, 2014 (79 FR 7072) and July 19, 2016 (81 FR 46838). The
February 6, 2014 action approved revisions to R307-410-1, -3, and -4.
The July 19, 2016 action approved revisions to R307-410-2 and -6. These
actions were direct finals and did not receive any public comments
specific to updating the incorporation by reference date for 40 CFR.

II. The EPA's Evaluation

    Section 110(k) of the CAA address the EPA's rulemaking action on
SIP submissions by states. The CAA requires states to observe certain
procedural requirements in developing SIP revisions for submittal to
the EPA. Section 110(a)(2) of the CAA requires that each SIP revision
be adopted after reasonable notice and public hearing. This must occur
prior to the revision being submitted by a state to the EPA.
    On January 3, 2018, the State of Utah's Department of Environmental
Quality, Air Quality Board approved for public comment revisions to
Rule R307-101-3, General Requirements; Version of Code of Federal
Regulations Incorporated by Reference. The revisions that were being
proposed for R307-101-3, updated the date of reference of 40 CFR from
July 1, 2016 to July 1, 2017. The comment period began on February 1,
2018 and ended on March 5, 2018. No public comments were received nor
was a public hearing requested. On May 23, 2018, R307-101-3 was
finalized by the Air Quality Board and became effective. Subsequently,
on August 19, 2019 Utah submitted this SIP revision of R307-101-3 to
the EPA. This update allows R307 rules that reference section R307-101-
3 to update the CFR incorporation date to July 1, 2017, with only one
rule amendment.
    On August 7, 2019, the State of Utah's Department of Environmental
Quality, Air Quality Board, approved for public comment revisions to
R307-405-2. Permits: Major Source in Attainment or Unclassified Areas
(PSD). Applicability; and R307-410-3 Permits: Emissions Impact
Analysis. The rule changes to R307-405-2 update the version of 40 CFR
52.21 to the July 1, 2018 version. The revisions to R307-410-3 align
with the requirements in the July 1, 2018 version of 40 CFR part 51,
appendix W. The comment period began on September 1, 2019 and ended on
October 1, 2019. No public comments were received nor was a public
hearing requested. On November 25, 2019, R307-405-2 and R307-410-3 was
finalized by the Air Quality Board and became effective. Subsequently,
on December 16, 2019 Utah submitted this SIP revision of R307-405-2 and
R307-410-3 to the EPA.

III. Proposed Action

    The EPA is proposing to approve the SIP revision submitted on
August 19, 2019, to R307-101-3, General Requirements; Version of Code
of Federal Regulations Incorporated by Reference, where the version of
the 40 CFR is being changed from July 1, 2016 to July 1, 2017.
Additionally, the EPA is proposing to approve revisions submitted on
December 16, 2019, to: (1) R307-405-2 Permits: Major Sources in
Attainment or Unclassified Areas (PSD). Applicability; and (2) R307-
410-3 Permits. Emissions Impact Analysis. R307-405-2 revisions are
updating the version of 40 CFR to July 1, 2018, and R307-410-3
revisions are updating the version of 40 CFR part 51, appendix W to the
July 1, 2018 version.

IV. Incorporation by Reference

    In this document, the EPA is proposing to include regulatory text
in an EPA final rule that includes incorporation by reference. In
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is proposing to
incorporate by reference the Utah Division of Air Quality (UDAQ) rules
promulgated in the DAR, R307-101-3, R307-405-2, and R307-410-3 as
discussed in section III. of the preamble. The EPA has made, and will
continue to make, these materials generally available through
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 8 Office (please contact the
person identified in the For Further Information Contact section of
this preamble for more information).

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, the EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. Accordingly, this
action merely proposes to approve state law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by state law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21,
2011);
     Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 2,
2017) regulatory action because SIP approvals are exempted under
Executive Order 12866;
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the CAA; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area where EPA or an Indian tribe has
demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian
country, the proposed rule does not have tribal implications and will
not impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt
tribal law as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November
9, 2000).

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Beechcraft Corporation Model BAe.125 Series 1000A and 1000B airplanes
and Model Hawker 1000 airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of
inadvertent stowage of the thrust reversers, which can result in high
forward engine thrust even though the throttle is commanding reverse
thrust. This AD requires installing kits that include relays,
associated wiring, and a thrust reverser fail annunciator. We are
issuing this AD to prevent inadvertent stowage of the thrust reversers,
which could cause a runway overrun during a rejected takeoff or
landing, and consequent structural failure and possible injury to
occupants.

DATES: This AD is effective August 12, 2016.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of August 12,
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 certain Beechcraft
Corporation Model BAe.125 series 1000A and 1000B airplanes and Model
Hawker 1000 airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on
January 21, 2016 (81 FR 3348) (``the NPRM''). The NPRM was prompted by
reports of inadvertent stowage of the thrust reversers, which can
result in high forward engine thrust even though the throttle is
commanding reverse thrust. The NPRM proposed to require installing kits
that include relays, associated wiring, and a thrust reverser fail
annunciator. We are issuing this AD to prevent inadvertent stowage of
the thrust reversers, which could cause a runway overrun during a
rejected takeoff or landing, and consequent structural failure and
possible injury to occupants.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM and
the FAA's response to each comment.

Support for the NPRM

    Mr. Kevin Maher expressed support for the NPRM.

Request To Revise NPRM Requirement

    Mr. Kenneth Rittenhouse of Becker Aviation LLC requested that we
not require installation of the service kits, but leave the
installation decision up to the individual owner/operator. Mr.
Rittenhouse stated that the NPRM mentions that there have not been any
issues reported involving Model BAe.125 airplanes but does mention that
those airplanes have a similar engine/thrust reverser system to
airplanes on which the problem was reported. Mr. Rittenhouse explained
that if you examine the Learjet Model 60 and the Model Hawker 1000
systems, the Hawker 1000 is much more robust with redundant
capabilities. Mr. Rittenhouse stated that he does not believe the
unsafe condition has ever been an issue with the Model Hawker 1000
airplanes, and that it is extremely unjust to force operators to comply
with this modification that costs 15 percent of the total value of the
airplane.
    We do not agree with the commenter's request. We recognize that
maintaining airplanes in an airworthy condition is vital, but sometimes
expensive. Installation of the service kit corrects a potential unsafe
condition that could cause a runway overrun during a rejected takeoff
or landing, and consequent structural failure and possible injury to
occupants. The service kit was designed and proposed by the airplane
original equipment manufacturer as its best correction option. The root
cause of the unsafe condition is incorrect software logic within the
engine's electronic control unit. We acknowledge the commenter's
statement indicating that ``the Hawker 1000 is much more robust with
redundant capabilities,'' however, the commenter did not submit any
substantiating data to support that statement. We have determined that
this unsafe condition exists on the Model Hawker 1000 airplanes as well
as Beechcraft Corporation Model BAe.125 Series 1000A and 1000B
airplanes. We might approve requests to revise the applicability of
this AD if the request includes data that justifies such a revision and
provides an acceptable level of safety. We have not changed this AD in
this regard.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
this AD as proposed, except for 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.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We reviewed Beechcraft Service Bulletin 78-4133, dated May 2015.
The service information describes procedures for installing kits having
part numbers 140-9005 and 140-9006, which include relays, associated
wiring, and a thrust reverser fail annunciator. 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

    We estimate that this AD affects 38 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate 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.
    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

    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 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.

Di-isononyl Phthalate (DINP); Manufacturer Request for Risk
Evaluation Under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA); Notice of
Availability and Request for Comments

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is announcing the availability of and soliciting public
comment on a manufacturer request for a risk evaluation of di-isononyl
phthalate (DINP) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). The
request was made by Evonik Corporation, ExxonMobil Chemical Company and
Teknor Apex, through the American Chemistry Council's High Phthalates
Council. EPA conducts risk evaluations to determine whether a chemical
substance presents an unreasonable risk of injury to health or the
environment without consideration of costs or other non-risk factors,
including an unreasonable risk to potentially exposed or susceptible
subpopulations, under the conditions of use. In the docket associated
with this request is the manufacturer request for an EPA conducted risk
evaluation and possible additional conditions of use EPA has identified
for inclusion within the scope of a risk evaluation of DINP. After
considering comments received in response to this solicitation, EPA
will make a decision whether to grant or deny the manufacturer request.
All TSCA risk evaluations, whether EPA-initiated or manufacturer-
requested, will be conducted in the same manner.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before October 3, 2019.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by docket identification
(ID) number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2018-0436, by one of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov.
Follow the online instructions for submitting comments. Do not submit
electronically any information you consider to be Confidential Business
Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is restricted
by statute.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this apply to me?

    This notice is directed to the public in general, and may be of
interest to persons who currently or may manufacture (including
import), process, distribute, use, and/or dispose of DINP. Since other
entities may also be interested in these risk evaluations, the EPA has
not attempted to describe all the specific entities that may be
affected by this action.

B. What is EPA's authority for taking this action?

    TSCA section 6(b) requires that EPA conduct risk evaluations on
existing chemicals and identifies the minimum components EPA must
include in all chemical substance risk evaluations. 15 U.S.C. 2605(b).
The risk evaluation must not consider costs or other non-risk factors.
15 U.S.C. 2605(b)(4)(F)(iii). The specific risk evaluation process is
set out in 40 CFR part 702 and summarized on EPA's website at https://www.epa.gov/assessing-and-managing-chemicals-under-tsca/risk-evaluations-existing-chemicals-under-tsca.
    TSCA section 6(b) also allows manufacturers of a chemical to
request an EPA-conducted risk evaluation on the chemical. TSCA required
EPA to develop the form and manner under which these requests must be
made, and the criteria for which EPA will determine whether to grant a
request. These requirements and criteria are set out in 40 CFR 702.37.
    Under 40 CFR 702.37(e)(3), EPA is required to assess whether the
circumstances identified in a

manufacturer request for a risk evaluation constitute conditions of use
(as defined under TSCA section (3)(4) and implementing regulations (40
CFR 702.33)), and whether those conditions of use warrant inclusion
within the scope of a risk evaluation for the chemical substance. EPA
will also assess what, if any, additional conditions of use warrant
inclusion within the scope of a risk evaluation for the chemical
substance. EPA will conduct these assessments based on the same
considerations applied in the same manner as it would for a risk
evaluation in the EPA-initiated risk evaluation process.
    No later than 60 business days after receiving a manufacturer
request for risk evaluation that EPA has determined to be facially
complete (meeting the criteria set forth in 40 CFR 702.37(e)(1)), EPA
is required to submit for publication the receipt of the request in the
Federal Register, open a public docket for the request (which must
contain the manufacturer request and EPA's possible additional
conditions of use), and provide no less than 45 calendar days for
public comment. This notice identifies the docket containing the
manufacturer request, EPA's possible additional conditions of use, and
the basis for including those possible additional conditions of use.
During the public comment period, the public may submit comments and
information relevant to the requested risk evaluation, as well as the
additional possible conditions of use EPA is including in the docket.
    After the comment period closes, the Agency has up to 60 days to
either grant or deny the request to conduct a risk evaluation under 40
CFR 702.37(e)(6). EPA will review the request along with any additional
information received during the comment period, and grant the request
if it determines the request meets all of the following requirements
listed under 40 CFR 702.37(e)(6)(ii):
     The circumstances identified in the request constitute
conditions of use that warrant inclusion in a risk evaluation for the
chemical substance;
     EPA has all the information needed to conduct such risk
evaluation on the conditions of use that were the subject of the
request; and
     All other criteria and requirements of 40 CFR 702.37 have
been met.

C. What action is EPA taking?

    EPA is announcing the availability of and soliciting public comment
on a manufacturer request for a risk evaluation of DINP under TSCA that
is described in detail in Unit II. Also available in the docket
associated with this request are the manufacturer request and possible
additional conditions of use EPA identified for inclusion in a risk
evaluation of DINP. This notice satisfies 40 CFR 702.37(e)(4).

C. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is claimed CBI. In addition to one complete
version of the comment that includes information claimed as CBI, a copy
of the comment that does not contain the information claimed as CBI
must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket. Information so
marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with procedures set
forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When preparing and submitting
your comments, see the commenting tips at http://www.epa.gov/dockets/comments.html.

II. Summary of This Manufacturer Request

    On May 24, 2019, EPA received a manufacturer request for a TSCA
risk evaluation of DINP that was made by Evonik Corporation, ExxonMobil
Chemical Company and Teknor Apex, through the American Chemistry
Council's High Phthalates Council. After determining the request was
facially complete (i.e., EPA determined that the request appeared to be
consistent with the requirements in 40 CFR 702.37(b) through (d), such
as including all the necessary information in those paragraphs), EPA
notified the public of the receipt of the request on June 13, 2019 via
a listserv announcement to stakeholders.

A. What is di-isononyl phthalate (DINP)?

    DINP is a phthalate used as a plasticizer and paint additive in
consumer and commercial products, as well as numerous manufacturing
applications. There are two commercial products the manufacturer
submitted for risk evaluation under the name DINP. The first commercial
product, which the manufacturer refers to as DINP-1, can be represented
by the substance with Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number
(CASRN) 68515-48-0. The second commercial product, which the
manufacturer refers to as DINP-2 or DINP-3, can be represented by the
substance with CASRN 28553-12-0.

B. What are the conditions of use?

    The manufacturer request for a risk evaluation of DINP identifying
conditions of use of interest to the manufacturer is included in docket
EPA-HQ-OPPT-2018-0436. Subject to further analysis and public comment,
EPA anticipates including activities identified in the request as
conditions of use in the risk evaluation of DINP.
    EPA has identified additional conditions of use pursuant to 40 CFR
702.37(e)(3), which are also included in docket EPA-HQ-OPPT-2018-0436.

III. Request for Comment

    The docket associated with this request contains the manufacturer
request (excluding information claimed as CBI) and EPA's possible
additional conditions of use as described 40 CFR 702.37(e)(3), and the
basis for these possible additions. During the comment period, the
public may submit comments and information relevant to the requested
risk evaluation; in particular, commenters are encouraged to identify
any information not included in the request that the commenters believe
would be needed to conduct a risk evaluation, and to provide any other
information relevant to EPA's possible additional conditions of use,
such as information on other conditions of use of the chemical than
those included in the request or in EPA's additional conditions of use.
40 CFR 702.37(e)(4). In addition, at any time prior to the end of the
comment period, the requesting manufacturer(s) may supplement the
original request with any new information it receives. 40 CFR
702.37(e)(5).

    Authority: 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.

    Dated: August 13, 2019.

Administrator.

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

    Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated (``CBOE'' or
``Exchange'') proposes to amend its Fees Schedule and circular
regarding Trading Permit Holder application and other related fees
(``Trading Permit Fee Circular''). The text of the proposed rule change
is available on the Exchange's Web site (http://www.cboe.org/legal/),
at the Exchange's Office of the Secretary, 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, CBOE 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. CBOE 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
    CBOE Rule 2.20 grants the Exchange the authority to, from time to
time, fix the fees and charges payable by Trading Permit Holders. CBOE
is proposing to amend its Fees Schedule and Trading Permit Fee Circular
effective February 1, 2011 to: (i) Clarify that the tier appointment
fees will be assessed, as applicable, for open outcry transactions and
not electronic transactions for those Market-Maker Trading Permit
Holders that do not already have a tier appointment; (ii) establish a
minimum open outcry contract level for assessment of a tier appointment
fee to those Market-Maker Trading Permit Holders that do not maintain a
tier appointment in VIX; and (iii) clarify that written notification to
terminate a tier appointment should be provided to the Market Quality
Assurance & DPM Administration Department.
    CBOE Rule 8.3(e) provides that the Exchange may establish one or
more types of tier appointments. In accordance with CBOE Rule 8.3(e), a
tier appointment is an appointment to trade one or more options classes
that must be held by a Market-Maker to be eligible to act as a Market-
Maker in the options class or options classes subject to that
appointment. CBOE currently maintains tier appointments for Market-
Maker Trading Permit Holders trading in SPX and VIX.
    Section 10(A) of the current Fees Schedule provides that the SPX
Tier Appointment fee will be assessed to any Market-Maker Trading
Permit Holder that either (a) has an SPX Tier Appointment at any time
during a calendar month; or (b) conducts any open outcry transactions
in SPX or any open outcry or electronic transaction in SPX Weeklys at
any time during a calendar month. CBOE amended this provision in
January 2011 to reflect the addition of SPX Weeklys and to incorporate
any electronic transactions that occur in SPX Weeklys.\3\ However,
since the only Trading Permit Holders that are able to submit quotes
electronically in SPX Weeklys are those Market-Maker Trading Permit
Holders that have an appointment in SPX Weeklys, CBOE is proposing to
clarify this provision by removing the language that would assess the
tier appointment fee to any Market-Maker Trading Permit Holder that
conducts any electronic transactions in SPX Weeklys. CBOE has never
intended to assess the tier appointment fee to a Trading Permit Holder
that submits an occasional order electronically in SPX Weeklys.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 63706 (January 12,
2011), 76 FR 3184 (January 19, 2011) (SR-CBOE-2011-004).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Similarly, Section 10(A) of the current Fees Schedule provides that
the VIX Tier Appointment fee will be assessed to any Market-Maker
Trading Permit Holder that either (a) has a VIX Tier Appointment at any
time during a calendar month; or (b) conducts any transactions in VIX
at any time during a calendar month. However, since the only Market-
Maker Trading Permit Holders that are able to submit quotes
electronically in VIX are those Market-Maker Trading Permit Holders
that have an appointment in VIX, CBOE is proposing to clarify this
provision by removing the language that would assess the tier
appointment fee to any Market-Maker Trading Permit Holder that conducts
any electronic transactions in VIX. CBOE has never intended to assess
the tier appointment fee to a Trading Permit Holder that submits an
occasional order electronically in VIX. CBOE is also proposing to add
language to the Fees Schedule to provide that the VIX Tier Appointment
fee will be assessed to a Market-Maker Trading Permit Holder that
trades at least 1,000 VIX options contracts per month in open outcry.
In addition, because Market-Maker Trading

Permit Holders have an appointment to trade in open outcry in all
options classes traded on the Hybrid Trading System (including VIX)
pursuant to Exchange Rule 8.3(c)(ii), CBOE is proposing establish a
1,000 contract per month minimum to allow for minimum activity in VIX
without having to pay a VIX Tier Appointment fee.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ This may be distinguished from SPX as all Market-Maker
Trading Permit Holders trading in open outcry in SPX, a Hybrid 3.0
class, are required to maintain a separate appointment in SPX in
accordance with Rule 8.3(c)(iii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition to the proposed changes to the Fees Schedule described
above, CBOE is proposing to revise its regulatory circular that sets
forth the existing Trading Permit Holder application and other related
fees. The Exchange proposes to revise this circular to incorporate the
changes to Section 10 of the CBOE Fees Schedule that are described
above. The proposed changes to the circular are included as Exhibit 2
to the Form 19b-4.
2. Statutory Basis
    The proposed rule change will treat similarly situated Trading
Permit Holders in the same manner. Specifically, CBOE shall assess the
same base tier appointment fees to all Trading Permit Holders based on
the type of tier appointment requested and based on objective standards
with respect to open outcry trading in the applicable class.
Accordingly, the Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is
consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act,\5\ in general, and furthers
the objectives of Section 6(b)(4) of the Act \6\ in particular, in that
it is designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable
dues, fees, and other charges among persons using its facilities for
the reasons described above.

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    CBOE does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

    No written comments were solicited or received 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 has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \7\ and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-4 \8\
thereunder. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed
rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

    Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General
Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, and any changes,
or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart
UUU. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial
notification, performance tests, and periodic reports, and results.
Owners or operators are also required to maintain records of the
occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the
operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the
monitoring system is inoperative. Reports, at a minimum, are required
semiannually.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners or operators of petroleum
refineries.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63,
subpart UUU).
    Estimated number of respondents: 123 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 10,237 hours (per year). ``Burden'' is
defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $9,399,440 (per year), includes $8,398,136
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the
respondent and Agency labor hours in this ICR compared to the previous
ICR. The decrease occurred because all sources have met the initial
compliance requirement and, therefore, will not incur burden associated
with initial notification and performance test during the three-year
period of this ICR. The decrease also resulted from a reduction in the
respondent universe from 132 to 123 major source facilities. The
estimate was obtained from EPA's non-CBI Component 1 Section 114 ICR
database and is based on 2010 data.
    However, there is an overall increase in respondent labor costs due
to an adjustment in labor rates. This ICR uses updated labor rates in
calculating all costs. There is also an increase in the total O&M costs
due to an update in the estimated number of sources.
