given that, on July 31, 2009, NYSE Amex LLC (``NYSE Amex'' or the
``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II,
and III below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The
Exchange filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)
of the Act \4\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(2) thereunder,\5\ which renders the
proposal effective upon filing with the Commission. The Commission is
publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change
from interested persons.

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend its Schedule of Fees and Charges for
Exchange Services (``Schedule'') by waiving the Cancellation Fee until
November 1, 2009. The Schedule is attached as Exhibit 5 to the 19b-4
form. A copy of this filing is available on the Exchange's Web site at
http://www.nyse.com, at the Exchange's principal office and at the
Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

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

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

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to waive the Cancellation Fee until November
1, 2009. The Cancellation Fee was scheduled to take effect on August 1,
2009, however, the required development to Exchange billing systems has
not been completed. Those system enhancements are scheduled to be
implemented for the November billing cycle that begins on November 1,
2009.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposal is consistent with Section
6(b) of the Act, in general, and Section 6(b)(4), in particular, in
that it provides for the equitable allocation of dues, fees and other
charges among its members and other market participants that use the
trading facilities of NYSE Amex Options. Under this proposal, all
similarly situated members and other Exchange participants of NYSE Amex
Options will be charged the same reasonable dues, fees and other
charges.

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 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 is effective upon filing pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A) \6\ of the Act and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-
4 \7\ thereunder, because it establishes a due, fee, or other charge
imposed by the NYSE Amex.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \7\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission may summarily abrogate such rule change if it
appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate
in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

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

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-75291; File No. SR-BX-2015-015]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NASDAQ OMX BX Inc.; Notice of
Filing of Amendment No. 1 and Order Granting Accelerated Approval of
Proposed Rule Change, as Modified by Amendment No. 1, To Amend and
Restate Certain Rules That Govern the NASDAQ OMX BX Equities Market

June 24, 2015.

I. Introduction

    On March 20, 2015, NASDAQ OMX BX, Inc. (``BX'' or the ``Exchange'')
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''),
pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to
amend and restate certain BX rules that govern the NASDAQ OMX BX
Equities Market in order to provide a clearer and more detailed
description of certain aspects of its functionality. The proposed rule
change was published for comment in the Federal Register on April 6,
2015.\3\ The Commission received no comment letters regarding the
proposed rule change. On May 12, 2015, the Commission extended to July
5, 2015, the time period in which to approve the proposed rule change,
disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change should be disapproved.\4\ On
June 22, 2015, the Exchange filed Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule
change.\5\ This order approves the proposed rule change, as amended, on
an accelerated basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 74617 (March 31,
2015), 80 FR 18473 (``Notice'').
    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 74934, 80 FR 28325
(May 18, 2015).
    \5\ In Amendment No. 1, the Exchange proposed to correct
typographical errors in the original filing, further improve the
clarity of certain rule language, and include additional explanation
with regard to the purpose of the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Amended Proposal

    The Exchange proposes to amend and restate certain rules governing
the NASDAQ OMX BX Equities Market in order to provide additional detail
and clarity regarding its order type functionality.\6\ This proposed
rule change is a response to Chair White's request that each equities
exchange conduct a comprehensive review of the operation of each of the
order types that it offers to members.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Notice 80 FR at 18473.
    \7\ See id.; see also Mary Jo White, Chair, Commission, Speech
at the Sandler O'Neill & Partners, L.P. Global Exchange and
Brokerage Conference (June 5, 2014), available at http://www.sec.gov/News/Speech/Detail/Speech/1370542004312.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    While the Exchange believes that its current rules and other public
disclosures provide a comprehensive description of the operation of the
NASDAQ OMX BX Equities Market and are sufficient for members and the
investing public to have an accurate understanding of its market
structure, it also acknowledges that a restatement of certain rules
will further clarify the operation of its system.\8\ For instance, BX
believes that adding examples of order type operation to its rules will
promote greater understanding of the Exchange's market structure.\9\ In
addition, BX asserts that certain functionality previously described as
an ``order type'' is more precisely characterized as an attribute that
may be added to a particular order.\10\ Accordingly, this proposed rule
change distinguishes between ``Order Types'' and ``Order Attributes,''
and provides descriptions of the Order Attributes that may be attached
to particular Order Types.\11\

    Currently, BX Rule 4751 sets forth most of the rules governing
NASDAQ OMX BX Equities Market Order Types and Order Attributes, as well
as other defined terms that pertain to trading securities on the NASDAQ
OMX BX Equities Market.\12\ BX proposes to restate and amend Rule 4751
as new Rule 4701.\13\ BX also proposes to amend the definitions
pertaining to Order Types and Order Attributes and to relocate them
from Rule 4751 to new Rules 4702 (Order Types) and 4703 (Order
Attributes), respectively.\14\ In addition, BX proposes to delete Rule
4755 as the information contained therein is superseded by proposed
Rules 4702 and 4703.\15\ Lastly, BX proposes certain conforming and
technical changes to Rules 4756, 4757, and 4780.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Rule 4751.
    \13\ See proposed Rule 4701.
    \14\ See proposed Rules 4702 and 4703.
    \15\ See Rule 4755.
    \16\ BX states that, in subsequent proposed rule changes, it
plans to restate the remainder of its Rules numbered 4752 through
4780 so that they appear sequentially following Rule 4703. See.
Notice, 80 FR at 18474.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    BX represents that, except where specifically stated otherwise, all
proposed rules are restatements of existing rules and are not intended
to reflect substantive changes to rule text or the operation of the
NASDAQ OMX BX Equities Market.\17\ Proposed Rule 4702 related to Order
Types contains definitions and descriptions of Price to Comply Orders,
Price to Display Orders (referred to as ``Price to Comply Post Orders''
in current Rule 4751),\18\ Non-Displayed Orders, Post-Only Orders,
Retail Price Improving Orders, and Retail Orders. Proposed Rule 4703
related to Order Attributes contains definitions and descriptions of
time-in-force (``TIF'') modifiers, order size, order price, pegging,
minimum quantity, routing, discretion, reserve size, attribution,
intermarket sweep order designation, and display.\19\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ See. Notice, 80 FR at 18474.
    \18\ See Notice, 80 FR at 18477 n.29.

Rules 4702 and 4703. See Notice, 80 FR at 18473-90.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In Amendment No. 1, the Exchange proposes to add language further
explaining the operation of the following order types: Post-Only
Orders, orders with a TIF of IOC, including Routable Orders and Post-
Only Orders; orders with Midpoint Pegging, Primary Pegging or Market
Pegging; and orders designated with both Pegging and Routing
attributes.\20\ For example, the Exchange states that for Order Types
that list both Pegging and Routing as possible Order Attributes, the
two Order Attributes may be combined since Pegging serves to establish
the price of the order, while Routing establishes the market center(s)
to which the system's routing functionality may direct a routed order
if liquidity is available at that price.\21\ The Exchange also proposes
to add further specification regarding the availability of certain
order types only through certain communication protocols by stating
that a Post-Only Order with a TIF of IOC may not be entered through the
RASH or FIX protocols.\22\ In addition, the Exchange proposes to add
language stating that one or more Order

Attributes may be assigned to a single order, but if the use of
multiple Order Attributes would result in contradictory instructions,
the system will reject the order or remove non-conforming Order
Attributes.\23\

III. Discussion and Commission Findings

    After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed rule
change is consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities
exchange.\24\ In particular, the Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\25\ which
requires, among other things, that the rules of a national securities
exchange be designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster
cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in facilitating
transactions in securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and,
in general, to protect investors and the public interest; and are not
designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers,
brokers, or dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \24\ In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has
considered the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition,
and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \25\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission notes that the Exchange believes that the proposal
is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act because the reorganized
and enhanced descriptions of its Order Types, Order Attributes, and
related System functionality should promote just and equitable
principles of trade and perfect the mechanisms of a free and open
market and the national market system by providing greater clarity
concerning certain aspects of the System's operations.\26\ In addition,
the Commission notes that BX believes that the proposed rule change
should contribute to the protection of investors and the public
interest by making BX's rules easier to understand.\27\ Further, BX
believes that additional specificity in its rules will promote a better
understanding of the Exchange's operation, thereby facilitating fair
competition among brokers and dealers and among markets.\28\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \26\ See Notice, 80 FR at 18488.
    \27\ Id.
    \28\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission notes that, according to the Exchange, the proposal
does not add any new functionality but instead re-organizes the
Exchange's order type rules and provides additional detail regarding
the order type functionality currently offered by the Exchange. Based
on the Exchange's representation, the Commission believes that the
proposed rule change does not raise any novel regulatory considerations
and should provide greater specificity, clarity and transparency with
respect to the order type functionality available on the Exchange. In
addition, the Commission notes that the Exchange's proposed rule
changes provide additional detail related to functionality for certain
order types and the handling of orders during initial entry and after
posting to the NASDAQ OMX BX Equities Market Book. Accordingly, the
Commission believes that this proposed rule change should provide
greater transparency with respect to the Exchange's order type
functionality. For these reasons, the Commission believes that the
proposal should help to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, promote just and equitable principles of trade, remove
impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and
a national market system, and, in general, protect investors and the
public interest.
    The Commission finds good cause to approve the filing, as amended
by Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule change, prior to the thirtieth
day after the date of publication of notice of filing thereof in the
Federal Register. The proposed amendments should further increase the
Exchange's transparency with respect to the operation of various order
types and modifiers, and serve to enhance investors' understanding of
the tools available with respect to the handling of their orders.
Accelerated approval would allow the Exchange to update its rule text
immediately, thus providing users with greater clarity with respect to
the use and potential use of functionality offered by the Exchange. In
addition, the initial proposal was open for comment for twenty-one days
after publication and generated no comment. Accordingly, the Commission
believes that good cause exists, consistent with Sections 6(b)(5) and
19(b) of the Act,\29\ to approve the filing, as amended by Amendment
No. 1 to the proposed rule change, on an accelerated basis.

Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736.

Extension:
    Rule 23c-1

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 350l-3520), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the
collection of information summarized below. The Commission plans to
submit this existing collection of information to the Office of
Management and Budget for extension and approval.
    Rule 23c-1(a) under the Investment Company Act (17 CFR 270.23c-
1(a)) permits a closed-end fund to repurchase its securities for cash
if, in addition to the other requirements set forth in the rule, the
following conditions are met: (i) Payment of the purchase price is
accompanied or preceded by a written confirmation of the purchase
(``written confirmation''); (ii) the asset coverage per unit of the
security to be purchased is disclosed to the seller or his agent
(``asset coverage disclosure''); and (iii) if the security is a stock,
the fund has, within the preceding six months, informed stockholders of
its intention to purchase stock (``six month notice''). Commission
staff estimates that 56 closed-end funds undertake a total of 224
repurchases annually under rule 23c-1.\1\ Staff estimates further that,
with respect to each repurchase, each fund spends 2.5 hours to comply
with the rule's written confirmation, asset coverage disclosure and six
month notice requirements. Thus, Commission staff estimates the total
annual respondent reporting burden is 560

hours.\2\ Commission staff further estimates that the cost of the
hourly burden per repurchase is approximately $330.50 (one half hour of
a compliance attorney's time at $373 per hour,\3\ and two hours of
clerical time at $72 per hour).\4\ The total annual cost for all funds
is estimated to be $185,080.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The number of closed-end funds that undertake repurchases
annually under rule 23c-1 is based on information provided in
response to Item C.7.i of Form N-CEN from January 1, 2020 through
December 31, 2020.
    \2\ This estimate is based on the following calculation: 224
repurchases x 2.5 hours per repurchase = 560 hours.
    \3\ The $373/hour figure for a compliance attorney is from
SIFMA's Management & Professional Earnings in the Securities
Industry 2013, updated for 2021, modified by Commission staff to
account for an 1,800-hour work-year and inflation, and multiplied by
5.35 to account for bonuses, firm size, employee benefits and
overhead.
    \4\ The $72/hour figure for a compliance clerk is from SIFMA's
Office Salaries in the Securities Industry 2013, updated for 2021,
modified by Commission staff to account for an 1,800-hour work-year
and inflation, and multiplied by 2.93 to account for bonuses, firm
size, employee benefits and overhead.
    \5\ This estimate is based on the following calculation: 560
repurchases x $330.5 per repurchase = $185,080.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, the fund must file with the Commission a copy of any
written solicitation to purchase securities given by or on behalf of
the fund to 10 or more persons. The copy must be filed as an exhibit to
Form N-CSR (17 CFR 249.331and 274.128).\6\ The burden associated with
filing Form N-CSR is addressed in the submission related to that form.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ In addition, Item 9 of Form N-CSR requires closed-end funds
to disclose information similar to the information that was required
in Form N-23C-1, which was discontinued in 2004.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The estimate of average burden hours is made solely for the
purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, and is not derived from a
comprehensive or even a representative survey or study of the costs of
Commission rules and forms.
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the Commission, including whether the information has practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission'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.
    Please direct your written comments to David Bottom, Director/Chief
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, C/O Cynthia
Roscoe, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549; or send an email to:

Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG
(Type Certificate Previously Held by Rolls-Royce plc) Turbofan Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG (RRD) RB211 Trent 768-60,
RB211 Trent 772-60, and RB211 Trent 772B-60 model turbofan engines.
This AD was prompted by maintenance that resulted in damage to certain
low-pressure compressor (LPC) blades, resulting in increased
susceptibility to cracking in the LPC blade root. This AD requires
initial and repetitive inspections of the blade root of certain LPC
blades and re-lubrication of the LPC blades and LPC disk. Depending on
the results of the inspections, this AD requires replacement of the LPC
blades. As a terminating action to the inspection and re-lubrication
requirements, this AD requires restoration of the LPC blade as well as
examination and re-lubrication of the LPC disk. The FAA is issuing this
AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective April 30, 2021.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of April 30,
2021.
    The FAA must receive comments on this AD by June 1, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the
Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has
issued EASA AD 2020-0253, dated November 12, 2020, to address an unsafe
condition for the specified products. The MCAI states:

    In-service experience has shown that certain LP compressor
blades installed on Trent 700 engines may have been subjected to
maintenance actions that caused damage, making the affected blades
more susceptible to cracking.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to
blade or disc failure and consequent engine in-flight shut-down,
possibly resulting in reduced control of the aeroplane.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, Rolls-Royce issued
the inspection NMSB to provide inspection instructions. Rolls-Royce
also issued the restoration NMSB to provide in-shop restoration
instructions.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires
repetitive on-wing ultra-sonic (US) inspections of the blade roots
of the affected blades, subsequent re-lubrication of the affected
blades and discs and, depending on findings, accomplishment of
applicable corrective action(s). This [EASA] AD also requires in-
shop restoration of the affected blades and discs to a serviceable
condition, which constitutes terminating action for the repetitive
US inspections and re-lubrications as required by this [EASA] AD.

    You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating
Docket No. FAA-2021-0200.

FAA's Determination

    This product has been approved by EASA and is approved for
operation in the United States. Pursuant to our bilateral agreement
with the European Community, EASA has notified us of the unsafe
condition described in the MCAI. The FAA is issuing this AD because the
agency evaluated all the relevant information provided by EASA and has
determined that the unsafe condition described previously is likely to
exist or develop in other products of the same type design.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Rolls-Royce (RR) Trent 700 Series Propulsion
Systems Alert Non-Modification Service Bulletin (NMSB) RB.211-72-AK492,
Revision 1, dated November 30, 2020. This service information specifies
procedures for performing initial and repetitive ultrasonic inspections
of LPC blade roots, and re-lubrication of LPC blades and disks.
    The FAA also reviewed RR Trent 700 Series Propulsion Systems Alert
NMSB RB.211-72-AK522, Revision 1, dated

November 30, 2020. This service information specifies procedures for
inspecting LPC blades, applying high intensity shot peening to the
blade roots to arrest any cracks, inspecting the LPC disk to determine
serviceability, and re-lubrication procedures.
    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 ADDRESSES.

AD Requirements

    This AD requires initial and repetitive inspections of the blade
root of certain LPC blades and re-lubrication of the LPC blades and LPC
disk. Depending on the results of the inspection, this AD requires
replacement of the LPC blades. As a mandatory terminating action, at
the next engine shop visit, this AD requires restoration of the LPC
blades to a serviceable condition and examination and re-lubrication of
the LPC disk.

Differences Between the AD and MCAI or Service Information

    EASA AD 2020-0253, dated November 12, 2020, includes RRD RB211
Trent 772C-60 model turbofan engines in its Applicability section. This
model engine is not included in the Applicability of this AD because it
has not been type certificated in the United States.

Justification for Immediate Adoption and Determination of the Effective
Date

    Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies to dispense with notice and
comment procedures for rules when the agency, for ``good cause,'' finds
that those procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to
the public interest.'' Under this section, an agency, upon finding good
cause, may issue a final rule without providing notice and seeking
comment prior to issuance. Further, section 553(d) of the APA
authorizes agencies to make rules effective in less than thirty days,
upon a finding of good cause.
    The FAA has found the risk to the flying public justifies waiving
notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule because no domestic
operators use this product. It is unlikely that the FAA will receive
any adverse comments or useful information about this AD from any U.S.
operator. Accordingly, notice and opportunity for prior public comment
are unnecessary, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). In addition, for
the foregoing reason(s), the FAA finds that good cause exists pursuant
to 5 U.S.C. 553(d) for making this amendment effective in less than 30
days.

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written data, views, or arguments
about this final rule. Send your comments to an address listed under
ADDRESSES. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2021-0200 and Project Identifier
MCAI-2020-01520-E'' at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful
comments reference a specific portion of the final rule, explain the
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. The FAA
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this final rule because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to
https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you
provide. The agency will also post a report summarizing each
substantive verbal contact received about this final rule.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this AD contain commercial
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to
this AD, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public
docket of this AD. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Kevin
M. Clark, Aviation Safety Engineer, ECO Branch, FAA, 1200 District
Avenue, Burlington, MA 01803. Any commentary that the FAA receives
which is not specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the
public docket for this rulemaking.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) do not
apply when an agency finds good cause pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt
a rule without prior notice and comment. Because FAA has determined
that it has good cause to adopt this rule without prior notice and
comment, RFA analysis is not required.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 0 engines installed on
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.

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, and
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska.

Safety Zones; July 4th Fireworks Displays Within the Captain of
the Port Miami Zone, FL

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing temporary safety zones during
Fourth of July fireworks events on the navigable waterways of Bal
Harbour, Boynton Beach, Deerfield Beach, Delray Beach, Fort Lauderdale,
Hollywood, Key Biscayne, Lauderdale by the Sea, Miami Beach, Pompano
Beach, Stuart, and West Palm Beach, Florida. These safety zones are
necessary to protect the public from the

hazards associated with launching fireworks over the navigable waters
of the United States. Persons and vessels are prohibited from entering,
transiting through, anchoring in, or remaining within any of the safety
zones unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Miami or a
designated representative.

DATES: This rule is effective from 8:30 p.m. until 9:45 p.m. on July 4,
2011.

ADDRESSES: Documents indicated in this preamble as being available in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Regulatory Information

    The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary final rule without prior
notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section
4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This
provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and
opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those
procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.'' Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good
cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because the Coast Guard did not receive
necessary information regarding the fireworks displays until May 16,
2011. As a result, the Coast Guard did not have sufficient time to
publish an NPRM and to receive public comments prior to the fireworks
displays. Any delay in the effective date of this rule would be
contrary to the public interest because immediate action is needed to
minimize potential danger to the public during the fireworks displays.
    Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that good cause
exists for making this rule effective less than 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register. Immediate action is necessary in
order to restrict vessel movement and ensure maritime public safety
during this fireworks display.

Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for the rule is the Coast Guard's authority to
establish regulated navigation areas and other limited access areas: 33
U.S.C. 1226, 1231; 46 U.S.C. Chapter 701, 3306, 3703; 50 U.S.C. 191,
195; 33 CFR 1.05-1, 6.04-1, 6.04-6, and 160.5; Public Law 107-295, 116
Stat. 2064; Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
    The purpose of the rule is to protect the public from the hazards
associated with the launching of fireworks over navigable waters of the
United States.

Discussion of Rule

    Multiple fireworks displays are planned for the Fourth of July
celebration throughout the Captain of the Port Miami Zone. The
fireworks will be launched from land, piers, or barges. Whether
launched from land, pier, or barge, such fireworks will explode over
navigable waters of the United States.
    The Coast Guard is establishing twelve temporary safety zones for
fireworks displays on July 4, 2011 within the navigable waters of the
Captain of the Miami Zone. The safety zones are listed below.
    1. Bal Harbour, Florida. All waters within a 280 yard radius around
the pier from which the fireworks will be launched, located on the
Atlantic Ocean. This safety zone will be enforced from 9 p.m. until
9:30 p.m.
    2. Boynton Beach, Florida. All waters within a 374 yard radius
around the barge from which the fireworks will be launched, located on
the Intracoastal Waterway. This safety zone will be enforced from 8:30
p.m. until 9:30 p.m.
    3. Deerfield Beach, Florida. All waters within a 467 yard radius
around the pier from which the fireworks will be launched, located on
the Atlantic Ocean. This safety zone will be enforced from 9 p.m. until
9:30 p.m.
    4. Delray Beach, Florida. All waters within a 467 yard radius
around the barge from which the fireworks will be launched, located on
the Atlantic Ocean. This safety zone will be enforced from 8:30 p.m.
until 9:30 p.m.
    5. Fort Lauderdale, Florida. All waters within a 374 yard radius
around the barge from which the fireworks will be launched, located on
the Atlantic Ocean. This safety zone will be enforced from 9 p.m. until
9:45 p.m.
    6. Hollywood, Florida. All waters within a 467 yard radius around
the barge from which the fireworks will be launched, located on the
Atlantic Ocean. This safety zone will be enforced from 9 p.m. until
9:45 p.m.
    7. Key Biscayne, Florida. All waters within a 560 yard radius
around the barge from which the fireworks will be launched, located on
Biscayne Bay. This safety zone will be enforced from 8:30 p.m. until
9:30 p.m.
    8. Lauderdale by the Sea, Florida. All waters within a 187 yard
radius around the pier from which the fireworks will be launched,
located on the Atlantic Ocean. This safety zone will be enforced from 9
p.m. until 9:30 p.m.
    9. Miami Beach, Florida. All waters within a 280 yard radius around
the area from which the fireworks will be launched, located adjacent to
the Atlantic Ocean. This safety zone will be enforced from 9 p.m. until
9:30 p.m.
    10. Pompano Beach, Florida. All waters within a 374 yard radius
around the barge from which the fireworks will be launched, located on
the Atlantic Ocean. This safety zone will be enforced from 9 p.m. until
9:30 p.m.
    11. Stuart, Florida. All waters within a 560 yard radius around the
barge from which the fireworks will be launched, located on the St.
Lucie River. This safety zone will be enforced from 9 p.m. until 9:30
p.m.
    12. West Palm Beach, Florida. All waters within a 280 yard radius
around the barge from which the fireworks will be launched, located on
the Intracoastal Waterway. This safety zone will be enforced from 9
p.m. until 9:45 p.m.
    Persons and vessels are prohibited from entering, transiting
through, anchoring in, or remaining within any of the safety zones
unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Miami or a designated
representative. Persons and vessels desiring to enter, transit through,
anchor in, or remain within any of the safety zones may contact the
Captain of the Port Miami by telephone at<PHONE_NUMBER>, or a designated
representative via VHF radio on channel 16, to request authorization.
The Coast Guard will provide notice of the safety zones by Local Notice
to Mariners, Broadcast Notice to Mariners, and on-scene designated
representatives.

Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on 13 of these statutes or executive orders.

Executive Order 12866 and Executive Order 13563

    This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f)
of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, as
supplemented by Executive Order 13563, and does not require an
assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of
that Order. The Office of Management and Budget has not reviewed it
under that Order.
    The economic impact of this rule is not significant for the
following reasons: (1) Each safety zone will be enforced for a maximum
of one hour; (2) vessel traffic in the areas are expected to be minimal
during the enforcement period; (3) although persons and vessels will
not be able to enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within any
of the safety zones without authorization from the Captain of the Port
Miami or a designated representative, they may operate in the
surrounding area during the enforcement period; (4) persons and vessels
may still enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within the
safety zones if authorized by the Captain of the Port Miami or a
designated representative; and (5) the Coast Guard will provide advance
notification of the safety zones to the local maritime community by
Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to Mariners.

Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have
considered whether this rule would have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities. The term ``small entities''
comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations that are
independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their fields,
and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than 50,000.
    The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule will
not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities. This rule may affect the following entities, some of which
may be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels intending to
enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within any of the safety
zones described in this regulation during the respective enforcement
period. For the reasons discussed in the Executive Order 12866 and
Executive Order 13563 section above, this rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.

Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we offer to assist small
entities in understanding the rule so that they can better evaluate its
effects on them and participate in the rulemaking process.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or
action of the Coast Guard.

Collection of Information

    This rule calls for no new collection of information under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial
direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this rule under
that Order and have determined that it does not have implications for
federalism.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 or more in any
one year. Though this rule will not result in such an expenditure, we
do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in this preamble.

Taking of Private Property

    This rule will not effect a taking of private property or otherwise
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental
Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property
Rights.

Civil Justice Reform

    This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation,
eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

Protection of Children

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule
is not an economically significant rule and does not create an
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may
disproportionately affect children.

Indian Tribal Governments

    This rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more
Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.

Energy Effects

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ``significant
energy action'' under that order because it is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to
have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use
of energy. The Administrator of the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy
action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects
under Executive Order 13211.

Technical Standards

    The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards
in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress,
through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why
using these standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical
standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance, design, or
operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related management
systems practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus
standards bodies.

    This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have concluded
this action is one of a category of actions which do not individually
or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment.
This rule is categorically excluded, under figure 2-1, paragraph
(34)(g), of the Instruction. This rule involves the establishment of
twelve temporary safety zones to protect the public on navigable waters
of the United States. An environmental analysis checklist and a
categorical exclusion determination are available in the docket where
indicated under ADDRESSES.
