18 CFR Parts 250 and 385

[Docket No. RM22-6-000; Order No. 882]

Civil Monetary Penalty Inflation Adjustments

AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Department of Energy.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) is
issuing a final rule to amend its regulations governing the maximum
civil monetary penalties assessable for violations of statutes, rules,
and orders within the Commission's jurisdiction. The Federal Civil
Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990, as amended most recently by
the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements Act
of 2015, requires the Commission to issue this final rule.

DATES: This final rule is effective January 13, 2022.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:  Todd Hettenbach, Attorney, Office of
Enforcement, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE,
Washington, DC 20426. Phone:<PHONE_NUMBER>, email:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    1. In this final rule, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission) is complying with its statutory obligation to amend the
civil monetary penalties provided by law for matters within the
agency's jurisdiction.

I. Background

    2. The Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act
Improvements Act of 2015 (2015 Adjustment Act),\1\ which further
amended the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990
(1990 Adjustment Act),\2\ required the head of each Federal agency to
issue a rule by July 2016 adjusting for inflation each ``civil monetary
penalty'' provided by law within the agency's jurisdiction and to make
further inflation adjustments on an annual basis every January 15
thereafter.\3\

II. Discussion

    3. The 2015 Adjustment Act defines a civil monetary penalty as any
penalty, fine, or other sanction that: (A)(i) Is for a specific
monetary amount as provided by Federal law; or (ii) has a maximum
amount provided for by Federal law; (B) is assessed or enforced by an
agency pursuant to Federal law; and (C) is assessed or enforced
pursuant to an administrative proceeding or a civil action in the
federal courts.\4\ This definition applies to the maximum civil
penalties that may be imposed under the Federal Power Act (FPA),\5\ the
Natural Gas Act (NGA),\6\ the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (NGPA),\7\
and the Interstate Commerce Act (ICA).\8\

    \8\ 49 App. U.S.C. 1 et seq.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    4. Under the 2015 Adjustment Act, the first step for such
adjustment of a civil monetary penalty for inflation requires
determining the percentage by which the U.S. Department of Labor's
Consumer Price Index for all-urban consumers (CPI-U) for October of the
preceding year exceeds the CPI-U for October of the year before
that.\9\ The CPI-U for October 2021 exceeded the CPI-U for October 2020
by 6.222%.\10\ 5. The second step requires multiplying the CPI-U
percentage increase by the applicable existing maximum civil monetary
penalty.\11\ This step results in a base penalty increase amount.

    \11\ 28 U.S.C. 2461 note at (5)(a).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    6. The third step requires rounding the base penalty increase
amount to the nearest dollar and adding that amount to the base penalty
to calculate the new adjusted maximum civil monetary penalty.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    7. Under the 2015 Adjustment Act, an agency is directed to use the
maximum civil monetary penalty applicable at the time of assessment of
a civil penalty, regardless of the date on which the violation
occurred.\13\

III. Administrative Findings

    9. Congress directed that agencies issue final rules to adjust
their maximum civil monetary penalties notwithstanding the requirements
of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).\14\ Because the Commission
is required by law to undertake these inflation adjustments
notwithstanding the notice and comment requirements that otherwise
would apply pursuant to the

APA, and because the Commission lacks discretion with respect to the
method and amount of the adjustments, prior notice and comment would be
impractical, unnecessary, and contrary to the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

IV. Regulatory Flexibility Statement

    10. The Regulatory Flexibility Act, as amended, requires agencies
to certify that rules promulgated under their authority will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
businesses.\15\ The requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act
apply only to rules promulgated following notice and comment.\16\ The
requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act do not apply to this
rulemaking because the Commission is issuing this final rule without
notice and comment.

V. Paperwork Reduction Act

    11. This rule does not require the collection of information. The
Commission is therefore not required to submit this rule for review to
the Office of Management and Budget pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995.\17\

VII. Effective Date and Congressional Notification

    15. For the same reasons the Commission has determined that public
notice and comment are unnecessary, impractical, and contrary to the
public interest, the Commission finds good cause to adopt an effective
date that is less than 30 days after the date of publication in the
Federal Register pursuant to the APA,\18\ and therefore, the regulation
is effective upon publication in the Federal Register.

BILLING CODE 6717-01-P


06/ 15/ 05 Deliberative Material   Please Do Not Quote or Cite 2 1 SECTION 2 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND For this rulemaking, we are developing guidelines for BART determinations under the regional haze regulations. Specifically, we are addressing the issues of: 1) the sources that must apply BART, and 2) guidance as to how a State should determine the level of control for each source subject to BART in response to the court's ruling. We are finalizing a reproposal of the BART guidelines and the section of the regional haze rule relevant to the BART guidelines. This final rule reflects both our review of the public comments, and our response to the court ruling.

This document presents the health and welfare benefits of the Clean Air Visibility Rule ( CAVR) or BART rule and compares the benefits of this rule to the estimated costs of implementing the rule in 2015. This section provides background information including a discussion of the need for the proposed regulation, a brief discussion of the potentially regulated source categories, and control scenarios analyzed in the RIA.

2.1 Background In 1999, the EPA published a final rule to address a type of visibility impairment known as regional haze 64 FR 35714, July 1, 1999. The regional haze rule requires state implementation plans ( SIPs) to address regional haze visibility impairment in 156 Federallyprotected parks and wilderness areas. These 156 scenic areas are called " Class I areas" in the Clean Air Act ( CAA). This rule fulfilled a long standing EPA commitment to address regional haze under the authority and requirements of sections 169A and 169B of the CAA.

As required by section 169A( b)( 2)( A) and 169A( g) of the CAA, we included in the final regional haze rule a requirement for BART for certain large stationary sources that were put in place between 1962 and 1977. We discussed these requirements in detail in the preamble to the final rule. ( See 64 FR 35737 35743). The regulatory requirements for BART are codified at 40 CFR 51.308( e), and in the definitions that appear in 40 CFR 51.301.

The CAA, in 169A( b)( 2)( A) and in 169A( g)( 7), uses the term " major stationary source" to describe those sources that are the focus of the BART requirement. To avoid 06/ 15/ 05 Deliberative Material   Please Do Not Quote or Cite 2 2 confusion with other CAA requirements that also use the term " major stationary source" to refer to a somewhat different population of sources, the regional haze rule uses the term " BART eligible source" to describe these sources. BART eligible sources are those sources that have the potential to emit 250 tons or more of a visibility impairing air pollutant, were put in place or under construction between August 7, 1962 and August 7, 1977, and whose operations fall within one or more of 26 specifically listed source categories. Under CAA section 169A( b)( 2)( A), BART is required for any BART eligible source which " emits any air pollutant that may reasonably be anticipated to cause or contribute to any impairment of visibility in any such area." Accordingly, for stationary sources meeting these criteria, States must address the BART requirement when they develop their regional haze SIPs.

Section 169A( g)( 7) of the Clean Air Act requires that States must consider the following factors in making BART determinations:

( 1) the costs of compliance,

( 2) the energy and nonair quality environmental impacts of compliance,

( 3) any existing pollution control technology in use at the source,

( 4) the remaining useful life of the source, and ( 5) the degree of improvement in visibility which may reasonably be anticipated to result from the use of such technology.

These statutory factors for BART appear in the regional haze rule in 40 CFR 51.308( e)( 1)( ii).

The regional haze rule provides States with two alternative ways to approach the requirement for BART in the CAA. Under the first approach, contained in 51.308( e)( 1) of the regional haze rule, SIPs would contain source specific emission limits for each source subject to BART. Under the second approach, States may elect to adoptive alternative measures, such as a regional emissions trading program, in lieu of BART so long as the alternative measures achieve " more reasonable progress" than would application of sourcespecific BART emission limits. In the preamble to the 1999 regional haze rule, we discuss a number of issues related to both approaches.

In addition, in the preamble to the regional haze rule ( 64 FR 35741, July 1, 1999) we committed to issuing further guidelines to clarify the requirements of the BART provision.

The purpose of this rule is to fulfill this commitment by providing guidelines for States to use 06/ 15/ 05 Deliberative Material   Please Do Not Quote or Cite 2 3 in identifying their BART eligible sources, in identifying those sources that must undergo a detailed BART analysis ( i. e., " sources subject to BART"), and in conducting the technical analysis of possible controls in light of the statutory factors listed above (" the BART determination").

Finally, the rule discusses proposed changes to the regional haze rule, and a reproposal of the BART guidelines, in response to the May 24, 2002 ruling from the US Court of Appeals for the D. C. Circuit, that struck down the regional haze rule in part ( and upheld it in part). This rulemaking finalizes guidelines for States to use in identifying their BART eligible sources, in identifying those sources that must undergo a detailed BART analysis.

2.2 Regulated Source Categories This action does not directly regulate emissions sources. Instead, it requires States and Tribes with BART eligible stationary sources to revise their implementation plans to meet the BART requirements. However, States have the flexibility to choose what sources to control. The CAA uses the following 26 source category titles to describe the types of stationary sources that are BART eligible:

( 1) Fossil fuel fired steam electric plants of more than 250 million British thermal units ( BTU) per hour heat input,

( 2) Coal cleaning plants ( thermal dryers),

( 3) Kraft pulp mills,

( 4) Portland cement plants,

( 5) Primary zinc smelters,

( 6) Iron and steel mill plants,

( 7) Primary aluminum ore reduction plants,

( 8) Primary copper smelters,

( 9) Municipal incinerators capable of charging more than 250 tons of refuse per day,

( 10) Hydrofluoric, sulfuric, and nitric acid plants,

( 11) Petroleum refineries, 06/ 15/ 05 Deliberative Material   Please Do Not Quote or Cite 2 4 ( 12) Lime plants,

( 13) Phosphate rock processing plants,

( 14) Coke oven batteries,

( 15) Sulfur recovery plants,

( 16) Carbon black plants ( furnace process),

( 17) Primary lead smelters,

( 18) Fuel conversion plants,

( 19) Sintering plants,

( 20) Secondary metal production facilities,

( 21) Chemical process plants,

( 22) Fossil fuel boilers of more than 250 million BTUs per hour heat input,

( 23) Petroleum storage and transfer facilities with a capacity exceeding 300,000 barrels,

( 24) Taconite ore processing facilities,

( 25) Glass fiber processing plants, and ( 26) Charcoal production facilities.

Most of the source category titles are general descriptors that are inclusive of all the operations at a given plant. Some plant sites may have more than one of the categories present. Examples of this would include plants with both " petroleum refineries" and " sulfur recovery plants," or with both " iron and steel mill plants" and " sintering plants." On the other hand, some plant sites may include some emissions units meeting one of these 26 descriptions,

but other emissions units that do not.

2.3 Control Scenarios The source specific BART guidelines require emissions reductions from sources emitting sulfur dioxides ( SO 2) and nitrous oxides ( NO x). The analyses conducted for this RIA include three regulatory alternative scenarios that States may choose to follow to comply with 06/ 15/ 05 Deliberative Material   Please Do Not Quote or Cite 1 These levels are commonly achievable by flue gas desulfurization controls (" scrubbers").

2 5 BART. The alternatives include three scenarios of increasing stringency  Scenario 1, Scenario 2, and Scenario 3. A brief discussion of the these alternatives for the electric generating units ( EGUs) and all other sources follows. More details of the alternative control scenarios and associated control costs are discussed in chapters 7 and 8 of this report.

2.3.1 Electric Generating Units In the revised BART guidelines, we have included presumptive control levels for SO 2 and NO x emissions from coal fired electric generating units greater than 200 megawatts ( MW)

in capacity at plants greater than 750 MW in capacity. Given the similarities of these units to other BART eligible coal fired units greater than 200 MW at plants 750 MW or less, EPA's guidance suggests that states control such units at similar levels for BART. The guidelines would require 750 MW power plants to meet specific control levels of either 95 percent control or controls of 0.15 lbs/ MMBtu, for each EGU greater than 200 MW, unless the State determines that an alternative control level is justified based on a careful consideration of the statutory factors. 1 Thus, for example, if the source convincingly demonstrates unique circumstances affecting its ability to cost effectively reduce its emissions, the State may take that into account in determining whether the presumptive levels of control are appropriate for the facility. For an EGU greater than 200 MW in size, but located at a power plant smaller than 750 MW in size, States may also find that such controls are cost effective when taking into consideration the costs of compliance in the BART analysis in applying the five factor test for the BART determination. In our analysis we have assumed that no additional controls will occur where units have existing scrubbers and that no controls will occur for oil fired units.

While these levels may represent current control capabilities, we expect that scrubber technology will continue to improve and control costs will continue to decline.

For NO x, for those large EGUs that have already installed selective catalytic reduction ( SCR) or selective non catalytic reduction ( SNCR) during the ozone season, states should require the same controls for BART. However, those controls should be required to operate year round for BART. For sources currently using SCR or SNCR for part of the year, states should presume that the use of those same controls year round is highly cost effective. For other sources, the guidelines establish presumptive emission levels that vary depending largely upon boiler type and fuel burned. For coal fired cyclone units with a size greater than 200 MW, our analysis assumes these units will install SCR. For all other coal fired units, our 06/ 15/ 05 Deliberative Material   Please Do Not Quote or Cite 2 6 analysis assumed these units will install current combustion control technology. In addition,

we assume no additional controls for oil and/ or gas fired steam units.

We present alternative regulatory scenarios. Scenario 2 represents our application of the presumptive limits described above to all BART eligibility EGUs greater than 200 MW.

For Scenario 1, we assume that only 200 MW BART eligible EGUs located at facilities above 750 MW capacity will comply with the SO 2 requirements and NO x controls. In this scenario,

no facilities less than 750 MW capacity are assumed to install BART controls. For Scenario 1, we assume that units with existing SCRs will operate those SCR units year round annually.

In contrast in Scenario 3, we analyzed SO 2 controls equivalent to 95 percent reductions or 0.1 lbs per MMBtu on all previously uncontrolled units. NO x controls for this most stringent scenario presume SCRs will be installed on all units greater than 100 MW capacity and combustion controls will be installed on units greater than 25 MW but less than 100 MW capacity. The EPA analyzed the costs of each BART scenario using the Integrated Planning Model ( IPM). The EPA has used this model extensively in past rulemakings to analyze the impacts of regulations on the power sector.

The analysis presented assumes that BART eligible EGUs affected by the Clean Air Interstate Rule ( CAIR) ( March 2005) have met the requirements of this rule. Thus, no additional controls for EGUs beyond CAIR are anticipated or modeled for the 28 State plus District of Columbia CAIR region. In addition, we are assuming no additional SO 2 controls for sources located in States of Arizona, Utah, Oregon, Wyoming, and New Mexico or Tribal lands located in these States due to agreements made with the Western Regional Air Partnership ( WRAP). See Chapter 7 for a more detailed discussion of the emission controls scenarios assumed for the EGU sector. An analysis of EGU controls under CAIR and a more conservative approach to BART controls for EGU sources is included in Appendix E of this report. This analysis provides information as to the possible incremental benefits and costs associated with requiring EGU controls for BART sources in the non CAIR region. It should be noted that a more strict interpretation of BART than in the BART guidelines finalized was assumed for this analysis and that the costs and benefits for BART reported in Appendix E differ from those estimated for the three regulatory scenarios analyzed for this rulemaking.

2.3.2 Sources other than Electric Generating Units As previously discussed there are 25 source categories potentially subject to BART in addition to EGUs ( referred to as non EGU source categories) as defined by the CAA. The EPA evaluated a set of SO 2 and NO x emission control technologies available for these source 06/ 15/ 05 Deliberative Material   Please Do Not Quote or Cite 2 7 categories and estimated the associated costs of control using AirControlNET. The control scenarios evaluated assume maximum control measure cost caps of $ 1,000 per ton ( Scenario 1), $ 4,000 per ton ( Scenario 2), and $ 10,000 per ton ( Scenario 3). The EPA also conducted a cost analysis for $ 2,000 per ton and $ 3,000 per ton, and the results of this analysis are presented in Appendix G of this document. The analysis consists of applying SO 2 and NO x controls to each non EGU source category up to the specified cost per ton cap in each scenario. These cost per ton caps are specified in average cost terms. As control stringency is increased, the marginal costs are also estimated for each non EGU source category. The scenarios examined are based on the costs of technologies such as scrubbers for SO 2 control,

and varying types of technologies for NO x control. Scrubbers are the most common type of SO 2 control for most non EGU sources for each scenario, while combustion controls such as low NO x burners ( LNB) and post combustion controls such as selective noncatalytic reduction ( SNCR) and selective catalytic reduction ( SCR) are commonly applicable to most of the non EGU source category. Combustion controls are commonly applied as part of Scenario 1, while SNCR and SCR are more commonly applied either by themselves or in combination with combustion controls as part of Scenarios 2 and 3. Analyses are not available for 8 of the 25 non EGU source categories, because there are no available control measures for these sources or there are no sources in these categories included in the non

EGU emissions data utilized in these analyses. The marginal costs of these alternative regulatory scenarios are presented along with the results of these analyses in Chapter 8 of this report. All of these results are estimated using a nationwide database of BART eligible non

EGU sources that is based on information collected from Regional Planning Organizations ( RPOs) in the fall of 2004. This database became part of the baseline for this analysis. More information on this non EGU source database is available in Chapter 3 of this report. Just as for affected EGUs, all impacts to non EGUs are estimated for the year 2015.

2.4 Baseline and Years of Analysis The final rule on which this analysis is based sets forth the requirements for States and Tribes to meet the BART guidelines of the Regional Haze Rule. To comply with the BART guidelines, EPA requires that certain States reduce their emissions of SO 2 and NO x. The Agency considered all promulgated CAA requirements and known state actions in the baseline used to develop the estimates of benefits and costs for this rule including the recently promulgated Clean Air Interstate Rule. However, EPA did not consider actions States may take to implement the ozone and PM 2.5 NAAQS standards nor the recently promulgated Clean Air Mercury Rule in the baseline for this analysis. 06/ 15/ 05 Deliberative Material   Please Do Not Quote or Cite 2 8 In the analysis, the controls and reductions are assumed to be required in 2015, a date that is generally consistent with the expected timing of the rule. States must submit SIPs relevant to the BART requirements in January 2008. After approval of the SIP, there is a 5 year compliance date. Thus, controls are likely to be installed by the end of 2013 or the beginning of 2014 to comply with the rule. In addition, EPA had existing inventories,

modeling, and base case runs for 2015 to use for the analysis. The year 2015 is used in this analysis. All estimates presented in this report represent annualized estimates of the benefits and costs of CAVR in 2015 rather than the net present value of a stream of benefits and costs in these particular years of analysis.

2.5 Organization of this Report This document describes the health and welfare benefits of the proposed rule. The document is organized as follows:

Chapter 3, Emissions and Air Quality Impacts, describes emission inventories and air quality modeling that are essential inputs into the benefits assessment.

Chapter 4, Benefits Analysis and Results, describes the methodology and results of the benefits analysis.

Chapter 5, Qualitative Assessment of Nonmonetized Benefits, describes benefits that are not monetized for this rulemaking.

Chapter 6, Profile of Potentially Affected Industries, describes the major industries that may be affected by this rule.

Chapter 7, Cost and Economic Impacts for the EGU Sector, describes the costs of the rule to the power section and related economic impacts.

Chapter 8, Results of Cost, Emission Reductions, and Economic Impact Analysis for the Non Electricity Generating Sectors, describes the costs of the rule to affected industry sectors and related economic impacts.

Chapter 9, Executive Order and Statutory Requirements, describes impact analyses conducted to meet executive order and statutory requirements.

Chapter 10, Comparison of Benefits and Costs, provides a comparison of the monetized benefits and estimated annual costs of the proposed rule.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-85030; File No. SR-ISE-2019-01]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Nasdaq ISE, LLC; Notice of Filing
and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Extend the
Nonstandard Expirations Pilot Program

February 1, 2019.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on January 28, 2019, Nasdaq ISE, LLC (``ISE'' or ``Exchange'') filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the
proposed rule change as described in Items I and II below, which Items
have been prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this
notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested
persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend the pilot period for the Exchange's
nonstandard expirations pilot program, currently set to expire on
February 1, 2019.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
website at http://ise.cchwallstreet.com/, at the principal office of
the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

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

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

1. Purpose
    ISE filed a proposed rule change for the listing and trading on the
Exchange, on a twelve month pilot basis, of p.m.-settled options on
broad-based indexes with nonstandard expirations dates.\3\ The pilot
program permits both Weekly Expirations and End of Month (``EOM'')
expirations similar to those of the a.m.-settled broad-based index
options, except that the exercise settlement value of the options
subject to the pilot are based on the index value derived from the
closing prices of component stocks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 82458 (January 8,
2018), 83 FR 1636 (January 12, 2018) (approving SR-ISE-2017-111)
(Notice of Filing of Proposed Rule Change To Establish a Nonstandard
Expirations Pilot Program).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Exchange Rule 2209 [sic] at Supplementary Material .07(a), Weekly
Expirations, to Rule 1101A [sic], the Exchange may open for trading
Weekly Expirations on any broad-based index eligible for standard
options trading to expire on any Monday, Wednesday, or Friday (other
than the third Friday-of- the-month or days that coincide with an EOM
expiration). Weekly Expirations are be subject to all provisions of
Exchange Rule 2209 [sic] and are treated the same as options on the
same underlying index that expire on the third Friday of the expiration
month. Unlike the standard monthly options, however, Weekly Expirations
are p.m.- settled.
    Pursuant to Exchange Rule 2209 [sic] at Supplementary Material
.07(b), End of Month (``EOM'') Expirations, the Exchange may open for
trading EOMs on any broad-based index eligible for standard options
trading to expire on the last trading day of the month. EOMs are
subject to all provisions of Rule 2209 [sic] and treated the same as
options on the same underlying index that expire on the third Friday of
the expiration month. However, the EOMs are p.m.-settled.
    The Exchange now proposes to amend Exchange Rule 2209 [sic] at
Supplementary Material .07(c) so that the duration of the pilot program
for these nonstandard expirations will be through May 6, 2019. The
Exchange continues to have sufficient systems capacity to handle p.m.-
settled options on broad-based indexes with nonstandard expirations
dates and has not encountered any issues or adverse market effects as a
result of listing them. Additionally, there is continued investor
interest in these products. The Exchange will make public on its
website any data and analysis it submits to the Commission under the
pilot program.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section
6(b) of the Act,\4\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,\5\ in particular, in that it is designed to promote
just and equitable principles of trade, 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.
The Exchange believes the proposed rule change will protect investors
and the public interest by providing the Exchange, the Commission and
investors the benefit of additional time to analyze nonstandard
expiration options. By extending the pilot program, investors may
continue to benefit from a wider array of investment opportunities.
Additionally, both the Exchange and the Commission may continue to
monitor the potential for adverse market effects of p.m.-settlement on
the market, including the underlying cash equities market, at the
expiration of these options.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \5\ 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 not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. Options with nonstandard
expirations would be available for trading to all market participants.

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

    No written comments were either solicited or received.

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

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i)
Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii)
become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \6\ and

subparagraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b-4 thereunder.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \7\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii)
requires a self-regulatory organization to give the Commission
written 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.
The Commission has waived this requirement in this case.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \8\ normally
does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the
filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\9\ the Commission
may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest. The Commission
believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest as it will allow the
pilot program to continue uninterrupted, thereby avoiding investor
confusion that could result from a temporary interruption in the pilot
program. For this reason, the Commission designates the proposed rule
change to be operative upon filing.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ Id.
    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \10\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,
the Commission has also 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 the proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule should be approved or disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

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

[Docket ID FEMA-2019-0002; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-B-1939]

Changes in Flood Hazard Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This notice lists communities where the addition or
modification of Base Flood Elevations (BFEs), base flood depths,
Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) boundaries or zone designations, or
the regulatory floodway (hereinafter referred to as flood hazard
determinations), as shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and
where applicable, in the supporting Flood Insurance Study (FIS)
reports, prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for
each community, is appropriate because of

new scientific or technical data. The FIRM, and where applicable,
portions of the FIS report, have been revised to reflect these flood
hazard determinations through issuance of a Letter of Map Revision
(LOMR), in accordance with Federal Regulations. The LOMR will be used
by insurance agents and others to calculate appropriate flood insurance
premium rates for new buildings and the contents of those buildings.
For rating purposes, the currently effective community number is shown
in the table below and must be used for all new policies and renewals.

DATES: These flood hazard determinations will be finalized on the dates
listed in the table below and revise the FIRM panels and FIS report in
effect prior to this determination for the listed communities.
    From the date of the second publication of notification of these
changes in a newspaper of local circulation, any person has 90 days in
which to request through the community that the Deputy Associate
Administrator for Insurance and Mitigation reconsider the changes. The
flood hazard determination information may be changed during the 90-day
period.

ADDRESSES: The affected communities are listed in the table below.
Revised flood hazard information for each community is available for
inspection at both the online location and the respective community map
repository address listed in the table below. Additionally, the current
effective FIRM and FIS report for each community are accessible online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at https://msc.fema.gov for
comparison.
    Submit comments and/or appeals to the Chief Executive Officer of
the community as listed in the table below.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rick Sacbibit, Chief, Engineering
Services Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration, FEMA,
400 C Street SW, Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or (email)
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or visit the FEMA Map Information
eXchange (FMIX) online at https://www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/fmx_main.html.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The specific flood hazard determinations are
not described for each community in this notice. However, the online
location and local community map repository address where the flood
hazard determination information is available for inspection is
provided.
    Any request for reconsideration of flood hazard determinations must
be submitted to the Chief Executive Officer of the community as listed
in the table below.
    The modifications are made pursuant to section 201 of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105, and are in accordance
with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq.,
and with 44 CFR part 65.
    The FIRM and FIS report are the basis of the floodplain management
measures that the community is required either to adopt or to show
evidence of having in effect in order to qualify or remain qualified
for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
    These flood hazard determinations, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum that are
required. They should not be construed to mean that the community must
change any existing ordinances that are more stringent in their
floodplain management requirements. The community may at any time enact
stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies established by
other Federal, State, or regional entities. The flood hazard
determinations are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
    The affected communities are listed in the following table. Flood
hazard determination information for each community is available for
inspection at both the online location and the respective community map
repository address listed in the table below. Additionally, the current
effective FIRM and FIS report for each community are accessible online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at https://msc.fema.gov for
comparison.
