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

    On March 30, 2006, these rule submittals were found to meet the
completeness criteria in 40 CFR part 51, appendix V, which must be met
before formal EPA review.

B. Are there other versions of these rules?

    We approved Rules 101 and 102 into the SIP on December 31, 1998 (63
FR 72197); Rule 106 on June 14, 1978 (43 FR 25686); Rule 108 on August
30, 1993 (58 FR 45445); Rule 109 on April 13, 1995 (60 FR 18750); Rule
210 on October 8, 1976 (43 FR 40011); Rule 212 on December 4, 1996 (61
FR 64291); Rules 218 and 220 on July 6, 1982 (47 FR 29231); Rule 221 on
April 17, 1987 (52 FR 12522); and Rule 226 on August 31, 2004 (69 FR
53005).
    There is no version of Rule 208 in the SIP. We did not act on a
version of Rule 208 adopted by AVAQMD on January 5, 1990 and submitted
by CARB to us on December 31, 1990. While we can act on only the most
recently submitted version, we have reviewed materials provided with
previous submittal.

C. What is the purpose of the submitted rule and rule revisions?

    These rules describe administrative provisions and definitions that
support emission controls found in other local agency requirements. In
combination with the other requirements, these rules

must be enforceable (see section 110(a) of the CAA) and must not relax
existing requirements (see sections 110(l) and 193).
    The TSD has more information about these rules.

II. EPA's Evaluation and Action

A. How is EPA evaluating the rules?

    These rules describe administrative provisions and definitions that
support emission controls found in other local agency requirements. In
combination with the other requirements, these rules must be
enforceable (see section 110(a) of the CAA) and must not relax existing
requirements (see sections 110(l) and 193).
    The following guidance documents were used for reference:
     Review of New Sources and Modifications, U.S. EPA, 40 CFR
part 51, subpart I.
     Guidance Document for Correcting Common VOC & Other Rule
Deficiencies, EPA Region 9, (August 21, 2001). (The Little Bluebook)

B. Do the rules meet the evaluation criteria?

    We believe the rules are consistent with the relevant policy and
guidance regarding enforceability and SIP relaxations. The TSD has more
information on our evaluation.

C. Public Comment and Final Action

    As authorized in section 110(k)(3) of the CAA, EPA is fully
approving the submitted Rules 101, 102, 106, 108, 109, 208, 210, 212,
218, 220, 221, and 226 because we believe they fulfill all relevant
requirements. We do not think anyone will object to this, so we are
finalizing the approval without proposing it in advance. However, in
the Proposed Rules section of this Federal Register, we are
simultaneously proposing approval of the same submitted rules. If we
receive adverse comments by October 2, 2008, we will publish a timely
withdrawal in the Federal Register to notify the public that the direct
final approval will not take effect and we will address the comments in
a subsequent final action based on the proposal. If we do not receive
timely adverse comments, the direct final approval will be effective
without further notice on November 3, 2008. This will incorporate these
rules into the federally-enforceable SIP.
    Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment,
paragraph, or section of this direct final rule and if that provision
may be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final
those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse
comment.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely approves state law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by state law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).

In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as specified
by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the
SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in the state,
and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs on
tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by November 3, 2008. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of
judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for
judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness
of such rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements (see section 307(b)(2)).

title ``Evaluation of the Food and Drug Administration's `Fresh Empire'
Multicultural Youth Tobacco Prevention Campaign.'' Also include the FDA
docket number found in brackets in the heading of this document.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: FDA PRA Staff, Office of Operations,
Food and Drug Administration, 8455 Colesville Rd., COLE-14526, Silver
Spring, MD 20993-0002, PRAStaff@ fda.hhs.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.

Evaluation of the Food and Drug Administration's `Fresh Empire'
Multicultural Youth Tobacco Prevention Campaign (OMB Control Number
0910-NEW)

    The 2009 Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (Tobacco
Control Act) (Pub. L. 111-31) amended the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) to grant FDA authority to regulate the
manufacture, marketing, and distribution of tobacco products to protect
public health and to reduce tobacco use by minors. Section
1003(d)(2)(D) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 393(d)(2)(D)) supports the
development and implementation of FDA public education campaigns
related to tobacco use. Accordingly, FDA is currently developing and
implementing a youth-targeted public education campaign (`Fresh
Empire') to help prevent tobacco use among multicultural youth and
thereby reduce the public health burden of tobacco. The campaign will
feature events, advertisements on television and radio and in print,
digital communications including social media, and other forms of
media.
    In support of the provisions of the Tobacco Control Act that
require FDA to protect the public health and to reduce tobacco use by
minors, FDA requests OMB approval to collect information needed to
evaluate FDA's `Fresh Empire' multicultural youth tobacco prevention
campaign. Comprehensive evaluation of FDA's public education campaigns
is needed to ensure campaign messages are effectively received,
understood, and accepted by those for whom they are intended.
Evaluation is an essential organizational practice in public health and
a systematic way to account for and improve public health actions.
    FDA plans to evaluate the effectiveness of its multicultural youth
tobacco prevention campaign through an outcome evaluation study that
will be designed to follow the multiple, discrete waves of media
advertising planned for the campaign.
    The outcome evaluation study consists of a pre-test survey of
multicultural youth aged 12 to 17 before campaign launch. The pre-test
survey will be followed by ongoing cross-sectional surveys of the
target audience of youth beginning approximately 3 months following
campaign launch. Information will be collected about youth awareness of
and exposure to campaign events and advertisements and about tobacco-
related knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, intentions, and use. Information
will also be collected on demographic variables including age, sex,
race/ethnicity, grade level, and primary language.
    All information will be collected through in-person and Web-based
questionnaires. Youth respondents will be recruited from two sources:
(1) A sample drawn from 30 U.S. media markets gathered using an
address-based postal mail sampling of U.S. households for the outcome
evaluation studies and (2) targeted social media

(e.g., Facebook). Participation in the study is voluntary.
    The information collected is necessary to inform FDA's efforts and
measure the effectiveness and public health impact of the campaign.
Data will be used to estimate awareness of and exposure to the campaign
among youth in target markets where the campaign is active. Data will
also be used to examine statistical associations between exposure to
the campaign and subsequent changes in specific outcomes of interest,
which will include knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs, related to
tobacco use.
    FDA's burden estimate is based on prior experience with in-person
and Internet panel studies similar to the Agency's plan presented in
this document. Since the 60-day notice published, FDA has revised the
estimated burden. The original burden estimate accounted for evaluation
of more than one FDA multicultural campaign. The current burden
estimate accounts for the evaluation of one campaign, FDA's `Fresh
Empire' Youth Tobacco Prevention Campaign.
    A mail-based screener will be one of the methods used to identify
eligible youth. Parents or guardians will be asked to provide consent
and their contact information on this form. For the pre-launch survey,
the 5-minute screener will be completed by 13,816 households for a
total of 1,151 burden hours for youth and an additional 230 hours for
the parents or guardians. For the pre-test survey, 2,100 youth will
complete a questionnaire with an estimated burden of 30 minutes per
respondent, for an annualized total of 1,050 hours. For the post-test
screening survey, the estimated burden is 3,453 hours for youth and 691
hours for adults. For the post-test surveys, the estimated burden is 45
minutes per respondent, for a total of 4,725 burden hours.
    We will also recruit youth through social media (e.g., Facebook,
Twitter) as a secondary strategy to recruit youth 13 to 17. An online
version of the screener described above will be used to identify
eligible youth (included in Attachment 3). Eligible youth will be asked
to provide their parents' or guardians' contact information. The
screener will take 5 minutes and will be completed by 2,500 youth for
the pre-test survey for a total of 208 burden hours. Of these, 500 will
be eligible and complete the pre-test survey for a total of 250 burden
hours. For the post-test survey, 10,500 youth will complete the 5-
minute screener, for 875 burden hours. Of these, 2,100 will be eligible
and complete the post-test survey online (up to 45 minutes), for a
total of 1,575 burden hours.
    The target number of completed campaign questionnaires for all
respondents is 134,528, and the annualized response burden is estimated
at 14,208 hours.
    In the Federal Register of January 5, 2015 (80 FR 230), FDA
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed
collection of information. Two comments were received, however, only
one was PRA related.
    Comment: One comment stated that the media tracking survey and the
outcome evaluation study proposed by FDA are critical to FDA's efforts
to develop and implement an effective multicultural youth tobacco
prevention campaign.
    Response: FDA agrees that this collection of information is
necessary to the Agency's efforts to promote and improve public health.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-54085; File No. 10-131]

Order Modifying a Condition to Operation as a National Securities
Exchange of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC

June 30, 2006.

I. Introduction

    On January 13, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') granted registration of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC
(``Nasdaq Exchange'') as a national securities exchange.\1\ At the same
time, the Commission conditioned the Nasdaq Exchange's operation as an
exchange on the satisfaction of six specific requirements. The
Commission is modifying in this Order the condition requiring the NASD
to represent to the Commission that it no longer needs to control the
Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (``Nasdaq''), the Nasdaq Exchange's parent
company, through the Preferred D share because the NASD can fulfill
through other means its obligations with respect to non-Nasdaq exchange
listed securities under Section 15A(b)(11) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (``Exchange Act''),\2\ Rules 602 and 603 of Regulation
NMS,\3\ and the national market system plans in which it participates
(the ``Control Share Condition''). This condition reflected the Nasdaq
Exchange's intent to begin trading at the same time Nasdaq UTP Plan
Securities and CTA Plan Securities.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Exchange Act Release No. 53128, 71 FR 3550 (January 23,
2006) (``Nasdaq Exchange Order'').
    \2\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(11).
    \3\ 17 CFR 242.602 and 603.
    \4\ Transactions are reported pursuant to two national market
system plans: Nasdaq-listed securities are reported to the Joint
Self-Regulatory Organization Plan Governing the Collection,
Consolidation and Dissemination of Quotation and Transaction
Information for Nasdaq-Listed Securities Traded on Exchanges on an
Unlisted Trading Privileges Basis (``Nasdaq UTP Plan Securities'');
securities listed on other national securities exchanges are
reported to the Consolidated Transaction Association Plan (``CTA
Plan Securities''). Approximately 40 securities are dually-listed on
Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange LLC. Transactions in these
securities are reported to the CTA Plan and thus are CTA Plan
Securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Nasdaq Exchange would now prefer to commence trading Nasdaq UTP
Plan Securities and CTA Plan Securities in two separate phases.
Accordingly, by letter dated March 31, 2006, the Nasdaq Exchange
requested that the Commission modify the Control Share Condition to
allow it to begin operating as an exchange with regard to Nasdaq UTP
Plan Securities before the Control Share Condition is satisfied.\5\ As
discussed further below, the Commission is granting the Nasdaq
Exchange's request. Until the Control Share Condition is satisfied,
however, the NASD must retain control of Nasdaq through the Preferred D
share, and Nasdaq must continue to perform obligations under the NASD's
Plan of Allocation and Delegation of Functions by NASD to Subsidiaries
(``Delegation

Plan'') with respect to CTA Plan Securities. Satisfaction of the
condition would continue to be a prerequisite to the Nasdaq Exchange
trading CTA Plan Securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See letter to Nancy M. Morris, Secretary, Commission, from
Edward S. Knight, Executive Vice President and General Counsel,
Nasdaq, dated March 31, 2006.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Discussion

    As discussed in the Nasdaq Exchange Order,\6\ the NASD plans to
remain a member of the Intermarket Trading System (``ITS Plan'') for
the purpose of providing access to over-the-counter (``OTC'') quotes in
CTA Plan Securities communicated by its members through NASD facilities
and to provide its members access to exchanges' quotes in such
securities. The Control Share Condition is necessary because the NASD
and its members currently comply with their obligations under the ITS
Plan through the NASD's Nasdaq Market Center facility.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Nasdaq Exchange Order, supra note 1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, with respect to CTA Plan Securities, NASD facilities
owned by Nasdaq currently are the NASD's only means available to
fulfill its obligations under Exchange Act Rules 602 and 603,\7\ the
CTA Plan, CQ Plan, and Section 15A(b)(11) of the Exchange Act.\8\
Therefore, the NASD must have the means to satisfy these obligations
prior to relinquishing control of Nasdaq.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 17 CFR 242.602 and 603.
    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(11).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Nasdaq Exchange represented that the technology solutions to
allow the NASD to fulfill its obligations with respect to CTA Plan
Securities through means that would not involve a delegation of
regulatory authority to Nasdaq are not completed.\9\ In addition, the
Nasdaq Exchange represented that many of its prospective members have
indicated that a phased-in approach to the Nasdaq Exchange's operation
would be preferable. Specifically, according to the Nasdaq Exchange,
these firms believe that a single-day transition would entail
unnecessary costs and administrative burdens and pose transition risks
that could be mitigated through a phased approach.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The Commission notes that the NASD operates the Alternative
Display Facility (``ADF''), which currently collects quotes and
trades for Nasdaq UTP Plan Securities, but not for CTA Plan
Securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission believes that a phased-in implementation of the
operation of the Nasdaq Exchange is consistent with the Exchange Act
and may allow for a more smooth transition. Accordingly, the Commission
believes that it is necessary or appropriate in the public interest,
consistent with the protection of investors and consistent with the
requirements of Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder
applicable to Nasdaq Exchange to modify the Control Share Condition to
the Nasdaq Exchange Order as follows:
    First, the requirement that the NASD represent that ``control of
Nasdaq through the Preferred D share is no longer necessary because the
NASD can fulfill through other means its obligations with respect to
[CTA Plan Securities] under Section 15A(b)(11) of the Exchange Act,\10\
Rules 602 and 603 of Regulation NMS,\11\ and the national market system
plans in which the NASD participates'' is modified so as to be a
condition only with respect to the Nasdaq Exchange commencing to trade
CTA Plan Securities. This will allow the Nasdaq Exchange to begin
operations as a national securities exchange solely for Nasdaq UTP Plan
securities before the Control Share Condition is satisfied.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(11).
    \11\ 17 CFR 242.602 and 603.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Second, the Control Share Condition is modified to permit the
Nasdaq Exchange to commence trading Nasdaq UTP Plan Securities once
Nasdaq is no longer delegated regulatory authority under the Delegation
Plan with respect to such securities. The modification of the Control
Share Condition described above means that the Nasdaq Exchange would
commence trading in Nasdaq UTP Plan Securities while the NASD controls
Nasdaq. The Commission believes, however, that it would be
inappropriate for the Nasdaq Exchange to commence trading in Nasdaq UTP
Plan Securities while its parent company continued to be delegated
regulatory authority by the NASD with respect to the same activities.
Accordingly, the Commission would have to approve an amendment to the
NASD's Delegation Plan to reflect that Nasdaq would no longer be
delegated regulatory authority with regard to Nasdaq UTP Securities
prior to the Nasdaq Exchange commencing to trade Nasdaq UTP Plan
Securities.

III. Modification of Conditions to Operation

    The Commission notes that all of the other conditions set forth in
the Nasdaq Exchange Order remain and must be satisfied before the
Nasdaq Exchange can begin operations as an exchange.
    The Commission hereby replaces the Control Share Condition to
operation of the Nasdaq Exchange as a national securities exchange as
follows:
B. The NASD's Ability To Fulfill Its Statutory and Regulatory
Obligations
    (1) With respect to the Nasdaq Exchange commencing to trade
securities reported pursuant to the Nasdaq UTP Plan, the NASD's
Delegation Plan is amended to eliminate Nasdaq's exercise of regulatory
authority with respect to such securities.
    (2) With respect only to the Nasdaq Exchange commencing to trade
securities reported pursuant to the CTA Plan, the NASD must represent
to the Commission that control of Nasdaq through the Preferred D share
is no longer necessary because the NASD can fulfill through other means
its obligations with respect to securities reported to the CTA Plan
under Section 15A(b)(11) of the Exchange Act, Rules 602 and 603 of
Regulation NMS, and the national market system plans in which the NASD
participates.

IV. Conclusion

    It is ordered that the Control Share Condition to operation for the
Nasdaq Exchange is modified as described herein.

    By the Commission.
J. Lynn Taylor,
Assistant Secretary.
