Comment Info: =================

General Comment:Dear Mr. Zeller:

I am writing as an individual consumer to request an extension of the comment period for the Food and Drug Administration's ("FDA") Proposed Rule Deeming Tobacco Products to be Subject to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Family Smoking and Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (the "Proposed Rule") published at 79 Fed. Reg. 23,142 and Federal Register No. 2014-09491. On behalf of myself, I am requesting that the comment period for the Proposed Rule be extended by the FDA for an additional 105 days, from its current 75-day period, to 180 days.

The Proposed Rule raises a number of significant issues and questions that are important and relevant to me, as a consumer of products that are proposed for regulation under the Proposed Rule. The Proposed Rule asks about a hundred different questions I might want to respond to. I want to provide my thoughts and comments on many of these issues, but my time to devote to researching and providing thoughtful comments on these important questions is limited. I have already spent many hours researching and dissecting these issues, but they take time. I know that the FDA took many years to even come up with the Proposed Rule, so I do not think it is at all unreasonable to allow the public a mere six months to comment on it. This is our only opportunity, as consumers, to provide our feedback.

I feel very strongly about e-cigarettes as an alternative to combustible cigarettes. Quite simply, I have tried to quite smoking and always returned to combustible cigarettes. Vaping is the only one that offers a realistic alternative, I have been able to reduce my nicotine consumption by 66% in just a few months, and will continue to reduce that untill I will no longer be reliant on nicotine. I realize that the FDA has the authority under 21 CFR 10.40 to extend this time frame and that the FDA has exercised this authority on numerous occasions in the past. I would therefore ask that you do so here, so that all stakeholders have the opportunity to provide their comments on this proposed regulation.

I appreciate your consideration of my request and am happy to discuss this issue with you further.

RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Airbus Model A318 series airplanes and Model A319 series
airplanes; all Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232, and -233
airplanes; and all Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, -231,
and -232 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by an evaluation by
the design approval holder (DAH) indicating that the holes of the upper
cleat to upper stringer attachments at certain areas of the left- and
right-hand wings are subject to widespread fatigue damage (WFD). This
proposed AD would require modifying the holes of the upper cleat to
upper stringer attachments at certain areas of the left- and right-hand
wings. We are proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on
these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by February 26,
2018.

Discussion

    Fatigue damage can occur locally, in small areas or structural
design details, or globally, in widespread areas. Multiple-site damage
is widespread damage that occurs in a large structural element such as
a single rivet line of a lap splice joining two large skin panels.
Widespread damage can also occur in multiple elements such as adjacent
frames or stringers. Multiple-site damage and multiple-element damage
cracks are typically too small initially to be reliably detected with
normal inspection methods. Without intervention, these cracks will
grow, and eventually compromise the structural integrity of the
airplane. This condition is known as widespread fatigue damage. It is
associated with general degradation of large areas of structure with
similar structural details and stress levels. As an airplane ages, WFD
will likely occur, and will certainly occur if the airplane is operated
long enough without any intervention.
    The FAA's WFD final rule (75 FR 69746, November 15, 2010) became
effective on January 14, 2011. The WFD rule requires certain actions to
prevent structural failure due to WFD throughout the operational life
of certain existing transport category airplanes and all of these
airplanes that will be certificated in the future. For existing and
future airplanes subject to the WFD rule, the rule requires that DAHs
establish a limit of validity (LOV) of the engineering data that
support the structural maintenance program. Operators affected by the
WFD rule may not fly an airplane beyond its LOV, unless an extended LOV
is approved.
    The WFD rule (75 FR 69746, November 15, 2010) does not require
identifying and developing maintenance actions if the DAHs can show
that such actions are not necessary to prevent WFD before the airplane
reaches the LOV. Many LOVs, however, do depend on accomplishment of
future maintenance actions. As stated in the WFD rule, any maintenance
actions necessary to reach the LOV will be mandated by airworthiness
directives through separate rulemaking actions.
    In the context of WFD, this action is necessary to enable DAHs to
propose

LOVs that allow operators the longest operational lives for their
airplanes, and still ensure that WFD will not occur. This approach
allows for an implementation strategy that provides flexibility to DAHs
in determining the timing of service information development (with FAA
approval), while providing operators with certainty regarding the LOV
applicable to their airplanes.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2017-0117, dated July 7, 2017 (referred to after this as the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an
unsafe condition for certain Airbus Model A318 series airplanes; Model
A319 series airplanes; Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232,
and -233 airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, -
231, and -232 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Within the scope of work of service life extension for A320
aeroplanes and of widespread fatigue damage evaluations, it has been
determined that a structural modification is required to allow the
aeroplanes to continue operation up to the limit of validity (LoV).
    This condition, if not corrected, may affect the structural
integrity of the wing.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, Airbus issued SB
A320-57-1208, providing instructions to oversize the holes of the
upper cleat to upper stringer attachments at Rib 2 to Rib 7
(inclusive).
    For the reason described above, this [EASA] AD requires
modification of the affected holes.

    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-2017-
1245.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus has issued Airbus Service Bulletin A320-57-1208, dated
November 21, 2016. The service information describes procedures for
modifying the stringer attachments at rib 2 through rib 7 of the left-
and right-hand wings. The modification includes oversizing the holes,
doing an eddy current inspection of the affected holes for damage, and
repair. 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.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of these
same type designs.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 1,136 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

 doing eddy current inspection).      hour = $10,625.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide
cost estimates for the on-condition actions specified in this proposed
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.
    This proposed AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated
by the Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as
authorized by FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order,
issuance of ADs is normally a function of the Compliance and
Airworthiness Division, but during this transition period, the
Executive Director has delegated the authority to issue ADs applicable
to transport category airplanes to the Director of the System Oversight
Division.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would 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 this proposed
regulation:
    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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[FRL-9364-01-R6]

Clean Air Act Operating Permit Program; Petition for Objection to
State Operating Permit for Premcor Refining Group Inc., Valero Port
Arthur Refinery, Jefferson County, Texas

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of final order on petition for objection to Clean Air
Act Title V operating permit.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator signed
an Order dated November 30, 2021, granting in part and denying in part
a Petition dated February 20, 2018 from the Environmental Integrity
Project, Sierra Club, and the Port Arthur Community Action Network (the
Petitioners). The Petition requested that the EPA object to a Clean Air
Act (CAA) title V operating permit issued by the Texas Commission on
Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to Premcor Refining Group Inc. (Premcor)
for its Valero Port Arthur Refinery located in Jefferson County, Texas.

ADDRESSES: The EPA requests that you contact the individual listed in
the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section to view copies of the final
Order, the Petition, and other supporting information. Out of an
abundance of caution for members of the public and our staff, the EPA
Region 6 office is currently closed to the public to reduce the risk of
transmitting COVID-19. Please call or email the contact listed below if
you need alternative access to the final Order and Petition, which are
available electronically at: https://www.epa.gov/title-v-operating-permits/title-v-petition-database.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jonathan Ehrhart, EPA Region 6 Office,
Air Permits Section,<PHONE_NUMBER>, [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAA affords EPA a 45-day period to
review and object to, as appropriate, operating permits proposed by
state permitting authorities under title V of the CAA. Section
505(b)(2) of the CAA authorizes any person to petition the EPA
Administrator to object to a title V operating permit within 60 days
after the expiration of the EPA's 45-day review period if the EPA has
not objected on its own initiative. Petitions must be based only on
objections to the permit that were raised with reasonable specificity
during the public comment period provided by the state, unless the
petitioner demonstrates that it was impracticable to raise these issues
during the comment period or unless the grounds for the issue arose
after this period.
    The EPA received the Petition from the Environmental Integrity
Project, Sierra Club, and the Port Arthur Community Action Network
dated February 20, 2018, requesting that the EPA object to the issuance
of operating permit no. O1498, issued by TCEQ to the Premcor Valero
Port Arthur Refinery in Jefferson County, Texas. The Petition claims
the proposed permit fails to incorporate and assure compliance with
Permit by Rule (``PBR'') requirements, including requirements in
Premcor's certified PBR registrations, and fails to include monitoring,
testing, and recordkeeping provisions that assure compliance with
applicable requirements in Premcor's New Source Review (NSR) permits.
    On November 30, 2021, the EPA Administrator issued an Order
granting in part and denying in part the Petition. The Order explains
the basis for EPA's decision.

    Dated: December 16, 2021.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Agency Information Collection Activities; Requests for Comments;
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection; Advanced
Qualification Program (AQP)

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA
invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew an information
collection. The Advanced Qualification Program (AQP) incorporates data
driven quality control processes for validating and maintaining the
effectiveness of air carrier training program curriculum content.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by August 22, 2011.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Carla Scott on<PHONE_NUMBER>, or by
e-mail at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0701.
    Title: Advanced Qualification Program (AQP).
    Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this
collection.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: Under SFAR No. 58, Advanced Qualification Program
(AQP), the FAA provides certificated air carriers, as well as training
centers they employ, with a regulatory alternative for training,
checking, qualifying, and certifying aircrew personnel subject to the
requirements of 14 CFR parts 121 and 135. AQP is continuously validated
through the collection and analysis of trainee performance. Data
collection and analysis processes ensure that the certificate holder
provides performance information on its crewmembers, flight
instructors, and evaluators that will enable the certificate holder and
the FAA to determine whether the form and content of training and
evaluation activities are satisfactorily accomplishing the overall
objectives of the curriculum.
    Respondents: Approximately 18 certificated air carriers and
training centers.
    Frequency: Information is collected monthly.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 1.20 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 432 hours.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to the FAA at the following address: Ms. Carla
Scott, Room 336, Federal Aviation Administration, AES-300, 950 L'Enfant
Plaza SW., Washington, DC 20024.
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d)
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of
the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information
collection.

    Issued in Washington, DC on June 15, 2011.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. IC08-11-000; FERC Form No. 11]

Commission Information Collection Activities, Proposed
Collection; Comment Request; Extension

March 13, 2008.
AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Notice of proposed information collection and request for
comments.

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

SUMMARY: In compliance with the requirements of section 3506(c)(2)(a)
of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. No. 104-13), the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) is soliciting public
comment on the specific aspects of the information collection described
below.

DATES: Comments on the collection of information are due May 19, 2008.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed collection of information can be
obtained from the Commission's Web site (http://www.ferc.gov/docs-
filing/elibrary.asp) or from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,
Attn: Michael Miller, Office of the Executive Director Officer, ED-34,
888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426. Comments may be filed
either in paper format or electronically. Those parties filing
electronically do not need to make a paper filing. For paper filing,
the original and 14 copies of such comments should be submitted to the
Office of the Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426 and refer to Docket No. IC08-
11-000.
    Documents filed electronically via the Internet must be prepared in

Commission will send an automatic acknowledgement to the sender's e-
mail address upon receipt of comments.
    All comments may be viewed, printed or downloaded remotely via the
Internet through FERC's homepage using the eLibrary link. For user
assistance, contact<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or toll-free at (866)
208-3676 or for TTY, contact<PHONE_NUMBER>.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael Miller, the Commission's
Information Collection Officer, may be reached by telephone at (202)
502-8415, by fax at<PHONE_NUMBER>, and by e-mail at
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The information collected under the
requirements of FERC Form No. 11 ``Natural Gas Monthly Quarterly
Statement of Monthly Data'' (OMB No. 1902-0032) is used by the
Commission to implement the statutory provisions of Sections 10(a) and
16 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) (15 U.S.C. 717-717w) and the Natural
Gas Policy Act of 1978 (NGPA) (15 U.S.C. 3301-3432). The NGA and NGPA
authorize the Commission to prescribe rules and regulations requiring
natural gas pipeline companies whose gas was transported or stored for
a fee, which exceeded 50 million dekatherms in each of the three
previous calendar years to submit FERC Form No. 11. The Commission
implements these filing requirements in the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) under 18 CFR 260.3 and 385.2011.
    Although the submission of the form is quarterly, the information
is reported on a monthly basis. This permits the Commission to follow
developing trends on a pipeline's system. Gas revenues and quantities
of gas by rate schedule, transition cost from upstream pipelines, and
reservation charges are reported. This information is used by the
Commission to assess the reasonableness of the various revenues and
cost of service items claimed in rate filings. It also provides the
Commission with a view of the status pipeline activities, allows
revenue comparisons between pipelines, and provides the financial
status of the regulated pipelines.
    Action: The Commission is requesting a one-year extension of the
current expiration date, while it assesses its information needs with
respect to the Form 11. There are no changes to the existing collection
of data. This is a mandatory information collection requirement.
    Burden Statement: Public reporting burden for this collection is
estimated as:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Number of respondents       Number of responses per     Average burden hours per
          annually                    respondent                   response            Total annual burden hours
(1)                                             (2)                         (3)             (1) x (2) x (3)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    70                            4                           3                         840
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Estimated total cost to respondents is $51,040. (840 hours divided
by 2080 hours \1\ per year times $126,384 \2\ equals $51,040.) The
average estimated cost per respondent is $729.14.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Number of hours an employee works each year.
    \2\ Average annual salary per employee.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The reporting burden includes the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide
the information including: (1) Reviewing instructions; (2) using
technology and systems for the purpose of providing the information;
(3) completing and reviewing the information; and (4) filing the
information.
    The cost estimate for respondents is based upon salaries for
professional and clerical support, as well as direct and indirect
overhead costs. Direct costs include all costs directly attributable to
providing this information, such as administrative costs and the cost
for information technology. Indirect or overhead costs are costs
incurred by an organization in support of its mission. These costs
apply to activities which benefit the whole organization rather than
any one particular function or activity.
    Comments are invited on: (1) The accuracy of the agency's burden
estimate for the information collection, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used to calculate the reporting burden; and
(2) ways to enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the information
to be collected.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.

distributors, and dispensers must have in place to comply with the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), as amended by the Drug
Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA). Specifically, this draft guidance
covers the statutory verification system requirements that include
quarantine and investigation of a product determined to be suspect and
quarantine and disposition of a product determined to be illegitimate.
The draft guidance also addresses the statutory requirement for
notification to the Agency of a product that has been cleared by a
manufacturer, repackager, wholesale distributor, or dispenser after a
suspect product investigation because it is determined that the product
is not an illegitimate product.

DATES: Submit either electronic or written comments on the draft
guidance by December 24, 2018 to ensure that the Agency considers your
comment on this draft guidance before it begins work on the final
version of the guidance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    FDA is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry
entitled ``Verification Systems Under the Drug Supply Chain Security
Act for Certain Prescription Drugs.'' The DSCSA (Title II of Pub. L.
113-54) was signed into law on November 27, 2013. Section 202 of the
DSCSA added section 582 to the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360eee-1), which
established the requirement that trading partners have systems in place
to enable them to comply with certain verification obligations.
    The draft guidance provides recommendations for robust verification
systems for the determination, quarantine, and investigation of suspect
products as well as quarantine and disposition of illegitimate
products. As explained in the draft guidance, verification systems may
include existing standard operating procedures or other processes or
procedures provided that the verification systems ensure that the
trading partner meets its obligations under section 582 of the FD&C
Act. This draft guidance also addresses the manner in which FDA
recommends that trading partners submit cleared product notifications
(i.e., notifications that a suspect product is not an illegitimate
product). Finally, the draft guidance also addresses the statutory
requirements for verification, including verification of saleable
returns, at the package level for product identifiers on packages and
homogenous cases intended to be introduced in a transaction into
commerce. While DSCSA also requires trading partners to notify the
Agency of illegitimate products or products with high risk of
illegitimacy, this requirement was previously discussed in a separate
guidance document, and is therefore not addressed in this draft
guidance.
    This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good
guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when
finalized, will represent the Agency's current thinking on verification
systems for certain human, finished, prescription drugs under section
582 of the FD&C Act. It does not establish any rights for any person
and is not binding on FDA or the public. You can use an alternative
approach if it satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes
and regulations. This draft guidance is not subject to Executive Order
12866.

II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    This draft guidance includes information collection provisions that
are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520)
(PRA). In accordance with the PRA, prior to publication of any final
guidance document, FDA intends to solicit public comment and obtain OMB
approval for any information collections recommended in this guidance
that are new or that would represent material modifications to those
previously approved collections of information found in FDA regulations
or guidance.

III. Electronic Access

    Persons with access to the internet may obtain the draft guidance
at https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/GuidanceComplianceRegulatoryInformation/Guidances/default.htm, https://www.fda.gov/BiologicsBloodVaccines/GuidanceComplianceRegulatoryInformation/Guidances/default.htm, or

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[FRL-10024-57-Region 3]

Delegation of Authority to the Commonwealth of Virginia To
Implement and Enforce Additional or Revised National Emission Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants and New Source Performance Standards

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of delegation of authority.

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

SUMMARY: On May 17, 2021, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
sent the Commonwealth of Virginia (Virginia) a letter acknowledging
that Virginia's delegation of authority to implement and enforce the
National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs) and
New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) had been updated, as provided
for under previously approved delegation mechanisms. To inform
regulated facilities and the public, EPA is making available a copy of
EPA's letter to Virginia through this notice.

DATES: On May 17, 2021, EPA sent Virginia a letter acknowledging that
Virginia's delegation of authority to implement and enforce certain
Federal NSPS and NESHAPs had been updated.

ADDRESSES: Copies of documents pertaining to this action are available
for public inspection during normal business hours at the Air &
Radiation Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region III,
1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103-2029. Copies of Virginia's
submittal are also available at the Virginia Department of
Environmental Quality, 1111 East Main Street, Richmond, VA 23219.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Riley Burger, Permits Branch (3AD10),
Air & Radiation Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region
III, 1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103. The telephone number is
(215) 814 2217, or Mr. Burger can also be reached via electronic mail
at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 12, 2020, Virginia notified EPA
that Virginia had updated its incorporation by reference of Federal
NSPS, NESHAP, and Maximum Available Control Technology (MACT) standards
to include many such standards, as they were published in final form in
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) dated July 1, 2020. On May 17,
2021, EPA sent Virginia a letter acknowledging that Virginia now

has the authority to implement and enforce the NSPS, NESHAP, and MACT
standards as specified by Virginia in its notice to EPA, as provided
for under previously approved automatic delegation mechanisms. All
notifications, applications, reports, and other correspondence required
pursuant to the delegated NSPS, NESHAP, and MACT must be submitted to
both EPA, Region III and to the Virginia Department of Environmental
Quality, unless the delegated standard specifically provides that such
submittals may be sent to EPA or a delegated State. In such cases, the
submittals should be sent only to the Virginia Department of
Environmental Quality. A copy of EPA's letter to Virginia follows:

Michael G. Dowd, Director
Air Division
Virginia Department of Environmental Quality
P.O. Box 1105
Richmond, VA 23218

Dear Mr. Dowd:
    The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has
previously delegated to the Commonwealth of Virginia (Virginia) the
authority to implement and enforce various federal New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS), National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), and National Emission Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Source Categories (MACT standards)
which are found at 40 CFR parts 60, 61 and 63, respectively. In
those actions, EPA also delegated to Virginia the authority to
implement and enforce any future federal NSPS, NESHAP or MACT
Standards on the condition that Virginia legally adopt the future
standards, make only allowed wording changes, and provide specified
notice to EPA.
    In a letter dated November 12, 2020, Virginia submitted to EPA
revised versions of Virginia's regulations which incorporate by
reference specified federal NSPS, NESHAP and MACT standards, as
those federal standards had been published in final form in the Code
of Federal Regulations dated July 1, 2020. Virginia committed to
enforcing the federal standards in conformance with the terms of
EPA's previous delegations of authority and made only allowed
wording changes.
    Virginia stated that it had submitted the revisions ``to retain
its authority to enforce the NSPSs and NESHAPs under the delegation
of authority granted by EPA on August 27, 1981 (46 FR 43300) and to
enforce the MACT standards under the delegation of authority granted
by EPA on January 26, 1999 (64 FR 3938) and January 8, 2002 (67 FR
825).''
    Virginia provided copies of its revised regulations which
specify the NSPS, NESHAP and MACT Standards which it had adopted by
reference. Virginia's revised regulations are entitled 9 VAC 5-50
``New and Modified Stationary Sources,'' and 9 VAC 5-60 ``Hazardous
Air Pollutant Sources.'' These revised regulations have an effective
date of November 11, 2020.
    Based on Virginia's submittal, EPA acknowledges that EPA's
delegations to Virginia of the authority to implement and enforce
EPA's NSPS, NESHAP, and MACT standards have been updated, as
provided for under the terms of EPA's previous delegation of
authority actions, to allow Virginia to implement and enforce the
federal NSPS, NESHAP and MACT standards which Virginia has adopted
by reference as specified in Virginia's revised regulations 9 VAC 5-
50 and 9 VAC 5-60, both effective on November 11, 2020.
    Please note that on December 19, 2008, in Sierra Club v. EPA,\1\
the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit vacated certain provisions of the General Provisions of 40
CFR part 63 relating to exemptions for startup, shutdown, and
malfunction (SSM). On October 16, 2009, the Court issued a mandate
vacating these SSM exemption provisions, which are found at 40 CFR
63.6(f)(1) and (h)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Sierra Club v. EPA, 551 F.3rd 1019 (D.C. Cir. 2008).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Accordingly, EPA no longer allows sources the SSM exemption as
provided for in the vacated provisions at 40 CFR 63.6(f)(1) and
(h)(1), even though EPA has not yet formally removed these SSM
exemption provisions from the General Provisions of 40 CFR part 63.
Because Virginia incorporated 40 CFR part 63 by reference, Virginia
should also no longer allow sources to use the former SSM exemption
from the General Provisions of 40 CFR part 63 due to the Court's
ruling in Sierra Club vs. EPA.
    EPA appreciates Virginia's continuing NSPS, NESHAP and MACT
standards enforcement efforts, and also Virginia's decision to take
automatic delegation of additional or updated NSPS, NESHAP and MACT
standards by adopting them by reference.

Sincerely,
Cristina Fernandez, Director
Air and Radiation Division

    This notice acknowledges the update of Virginia's delegation of
authority to implement and enforce NSPS, NESHAP, and MACT standards.

    Dated: May 27, 2021.
Cristina Fernandez,
Director, Air & Radiation Division, Region III.

II below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. NSX has filed
the proposal pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \3\ and Rule
19b-4(f)(6) thereunder,\4\ which renders the proposal effective upon

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

    The Exchange proposes to add a new NSX Rule 2.12 describing the
terms under which the Exchange would provide routing services procured
from a third party with respect to orders entered into its new state of
the art trading system, NSX BLADE. The text of the proposed rule change
is below. Proposed new language is in italics.
RULES OF NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE, INC.
* * * * *
CHAPTER II--ETP Holders of the Exchange
* * * * *
Rule 2.11 NSX Securities, LLC
    (a)-(b) No change.
    (c) This Rule 2.11 shall become effective on March 1, 2007.
    Rule 2.12 Order Routing Services
    The Exchange will route orders to other trading centers under
certain circumstances (``Routing Services'') as described in Chapter XI
of these Rules. The Exchange will provide its Routing Services pursuant
to the terms of three separate agreements: (1) an agreement between the
Exchange and each ETP Holder on whose behalf orders will be routed; (2)
an agreement between the Exchange and each third-party broker-dealer
that will serve as a ``give-up'' on an away trading center when the ETP
Holder on whose behalf an order is routed is not also a member or
subscriber of the away trading center; and (3) an agreement between the
Exchange and a third-party service provider (``Technology Provider'')
pursuant to which the Exchange licenses the routing technology used by
the Exchange for its Routing Services (``Exchange-Technology Provider
Agreement''). This Rule 2.12 shall be effective through February 28,
2007.
    Interpretations and Policies
    .01 (a) The Exchange will provide its Routing Services in
compliance with these Rules, as well as other provisions of the
Exchange's By-Laws and Rules where applicable, and with the provisions
of the Act and the rules thereunder, including, but not limited to, the
requirements in Section 6(b)(4) and (5) of the Act that the rules of a
national securities exchange provide for the equitable allocation of
reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among its members and issuers
and other persons using its facilities, and not be designed to permit
unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.
    (b) As provider of the Routing Services, the Exchange will license
the necessary routing technology for use within its own systems and
accordingly will control the logic that determines when, how, and where
orders are routed away to other trading centers.
    (c) The Exchange will establish and maintain procedures and
internal controls reasonably designed to adequately restrict the flow
of confidential and proprietary information between the Exchange
(including its facilities) and the Technology Provider, and, to the
extent the Technology Provider reasonably receives confidential and
proprietary information, that adequately restrict the use of such
information by the Technology Provider to legitimate business purposes
necessary for the licensing of routing technology.
    (d) The Exchange-Technology Provider Agreement will include terms
and conditions that enable the Exchange to comply with this
Interpretation and Policy .01.
* * * * *

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

    In its filing with the Commission, NSX 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. NSX 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 proposes to add a new NSX Rule 2.12 relating to the
routing of orders to other trading centers by the Exchange. The
proposed Rule would apply to orders entered into the Exchange's new
state of the art trading system, NSX BLADE, and would be effective
through February 28, 2007. NSX states that this Rule is proposed to be
effective for a finite period so that the Exchange can offer routing
services through NSX BLADE while the Exchange's wholly-owned
subsidiary, NSX Securities, LLC (``NSX Securities'') completes its
registration process as a broker-dealer with the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. (``NASD'') (and thus becomes available to
provide routing services), and while the Exchange evaluates its options
for providing routing services to ETP Holders. The Exchange states that
the ability to route orders entered into NSX BLADE to away markets for
execution at the best available prices is a key feature of NSX's new
system.
    Proposed NSX Rule 2.12 provides that the Exchange's routing
services would be provided under the terms of (i) an agreement between
the Exchange and each ETP Holder on whose behalf the orders would be
routed, (ii) an agreement between the Exchange and each third party
broker-dealer that would serve as a ``give-up'' on any away trading
center when the ETP Holder on whose behalf an order is routed is not
also a member or subscriber at the away trading center, and (iii) an
agreement between the Exchange and a third-party service provider
pursuant to which the Exchange licenses the routing technology used by
the Exchange for its routing services, as well as in compliance with
the provisions of the Act and the rules thereunder, and other
applicable provisions of the Exchange's

By-Laws and Rules. Proposed NSX Rule 2.12 also provides for (i) the
equitable allocation of dues, fees and other charges, (ii) Exchange
control of the routing logic, and (iii) the establishment and
maintenance of procedures and internal controls designed to protect
confidential and proprietary information.
    Proposed NSX Rule 2.12 provides that the Rule would be effective
through February 28, 2007.\5\ The Exchange intends to provide routing
services in accordance with proposed NSX Rule 2.12 until February 28,
2007, unless the Exchange, with the Commission's approval, amends
proposed NSX Rule 2.12 before such date. During such time period, the
Exchange intends to evaluate its options for providing routing
services. At the conclusion of such time period, the Exchange may
decide to (i) continue the approach provided for in proposed NSX Rule
2.12 on a permanent basis and not use NSX Securities as the outbound
router (by filing a proposed rule change to delete NSX Rule 2.11 and
renumber proposed NSX Rule 2.12), (ii) use the Exchange's original
approach of NSX Securities as an outbound router and discontinue the
approach provided for in proposed NSX Rule 2.12 (by filing a proposed
rule change to delete proposed NSX Rule 2.12), or (iii) file a proposed
rule change to allow ETP Holders to use either NSX Securities or the
approach provided for in proposed NSX Rule 2.12 for outbound routing.
The Exchange's use of NSX Securities as an outbound router would be
contingent on NSX Securities' successful completion of its registration
process as a broker-dealer with NASD.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ With this rule filing the Exchange also proposes to amend
NSX Rule 2.11, relating to NSX Securities' Outbound Router function,
to provide that such Rule would become effective on March 1, 2007,
immediately after proposed NSX Rule 2.12 ceases to be effective.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    NSX believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 6 of the Act,\6\ in general, and with Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,\7\ in particular, in that it is designed to promote
just and equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments to a free
and open market and a national market system, and, in general, to
protect investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange neither solicited nor received comments on the
proposed rule change.

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

    The foregoing proposed rule change is subject to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \8\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder \9\
because the proposal: (i) Does not significantly affect the protection
of investors or the public interest; (ii) does not impose any
significant burden on competition; and (iii) does not become operative
prior to 30 days after the date of filing or such shorter time as the
Commission may designate if consistent with the protection of investors
and the public interest; provided that NSX has given the Commission
notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a
brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at least five
business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule change,
or such shorter time as designated by the Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NSX has fulfilled the five-day pre-filing requirement. NSX has
requested that the Commission waive the 30-day operative delay
requirement. The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative
delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public
interest because such waiver would immediately provide NSX and its
market participants with the ability to route orders to away markets
for execution at the best available prices, a key feature of NSX BLADE,
which is now operational. The Commission notes that this proposed rule
change is substantially similar to the rules of another self-regulatory
organization.\10\ For these reasons, the Commission hereby waives the
30-day operative delay requirement.\11\ The Commission notes that NSX
intends to offer outbound routing to its ETP Holders beginning on
November 27, 2006.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ Rule 126B-AEMI of the American Stock Exchange LLC. See
Securities Exchange Act Release No. 54552 (September 29, 2006), 71
FR 59546 (October 10, 2006) (approving File No. SR-Amex-2005-104).
    \11\ For the purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative
delay, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact on
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such 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

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