SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of this meeting is given under the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App. (Pub. L. 92-463). The
National Advisory Council (NAC) advises the Administrator of the
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) on all aspects of emergency
management. The NAC incorporates State, local, and Tribal governments,
and private sector partners' input in the development and revision of
FEMA policies and strategies. FEMA's Office of the NAC serves as the
focal point for all NAC coordination.
    Agenda: The NAC will meet for the purpose of reviewing the progress
and/or potential recommendations of its four subcommittees:
Preparedness and Protection, Response and Recovery, Public Engagement
and Mission Support, and Federal Insurance and Mitigation. New members
will be sworn in at the beginning of the meeting, and the Administrator
and Deputy Administrator will discuss the general state of FEMA with
the members.
    The NAC will discuss the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)
Reform Bill; FEMA's Private Sector Office initiative, the National
Business Emergency Operation Center (NBEOC); youth preparedness and
engagement; Mid-Level Career Program at the Emergency Management
Institute (EMI); the Strategic Foresight Initiative (SFI); the use of
specialized international teams in response; and the FEMA Qualification
System (FQS). A FEMA

Program Office will brief the NAC on Emerging Topics in Emergency
Management during lunch, scheduled for 1 p.m. to 2:15 p.m. EDT.
    In 1968, Congress created the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP) to help provide a way for property owners to financially protect
themselves by offering flood insurance if their community participates
in the NFIP. Participating communities adopt and enforce ordinances
that meet or exceed FEMA requirements to reduce the risk of flooding.
FEMA announced the extension of the Preferred Risk Policy eligibility
under the NFIP until further notice, as the Agency completes a study
and analysis of the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012,
signed into law by President Obama on July 6, 2012. More information
can be found at http://www.floodsmart.gov/floodsmart/pages/about/nfip_overview.jsp.
    FEMA announced the first ever NBEOC under Emergency Support
Function (ESF)-15 in the National Response Coordination Center. This
NBEOC is envisioned as a groundbreaking new virtual organization that
serves as FEMA's clearinghouse for two-way information sharing between
public and private sector stakeholders in preparing for, responding to,
and recovering from disasters. More information can be found at http://www.fema.gov/private-sector-1.
    Youth preparedness is a priority at the Federal level. Since fall
2010, FEMA, the U.S. Department of Education and the American Red Cross
have been collaborating to empower youth to build a more resilient
nation through youth preparedness education. More information on Youth
Preparedness Program can be found at http://www.citizencorps.gov/ready/kids.shtm.
    EMI is the emergency management community's training institution,
and provides training to Federal, State, local, Tribal, volunteer,
public, and private sector officials to strengthen emergency management
core competencies for professional, career-long training. More
information on EMI can be found at http://training.fema.gov/EMI/.
    SFI promotes broader and longer term thinking, how the world is
changing and the effects on the emergency management community.
Thinking more broadly and over a longer timeframe will help us
understand these changes and their potential impacts. More information
on SFI can be found at http://www.fema.gov/about/programs/oppa/strategic_foresight_initiative.shtm.
    In the event that U.S.-based responders are overwhelmed there are
constraints on the entry and use of foreign responders due to concerns
about liability and licensure issues. There are potential shortfalls in
Urban Search and Rescue (US&R) capabilities needed to respond to
catastrophic disasters and emphasizing the need to streamline how
nations might share this important asset following a catastrophic
disaster. More information can be found at http://usaid.gov/.
    The primary purpose of the FEMA Qualifications System (FQS) is to
provide the best possible customer service to survivors and communities
working to respond to, recover from, and mitigate against disasters.
FQS helps build FEMA's disaster response and recovery capability by
providing personnel with the training and experience needed to assume
positions of progressively greater responsibility. More information on
FQS can be found at http://www.fema.gov/fema-qualification-system-0.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-73006; File No. SR-EDGA-2014-23]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; EDGA Exchange, Inc.; Notice of
Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change Relating to
Amendments to the EDGA Exchange, Inc. Fee Schedule

September 5, 2014.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on August 29, 2014, EDGA Exchange, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or
``EDGA'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II
and III below, which items have been prepared by the self-regulatory
organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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 its fees and rebates applicable to
Members \3\ of the Exchange pursuant to EDGA Rule 15.1(a) and (c)
(``Fee Schedule'') to increase the fee for orders yielding Flag D,
which route or re-route orders to the New York Stock Exchange LLC
(``NYSE'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The term ``Member'' is defined as ``any registered broker or
dealer, or any person associated with a registered broker or dealer,
that has been admitted to membership in the Exchange. A Member will
have the status of a ``member'' of the Exchange as that term is
defined in Section 3(a)(3) of the Act.'' See Exchange Rule 1.5(n).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
Internet Web site at www.directedge.com, at the Exchange's principal
office, and at the Public Reference Room of the Commission.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization
included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the
proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of these statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The self-regulatory organization
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 the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend its Fee Schedule to increase the fee
for orders yielding Flag D, which route or re-route to the NYSE. In
securities priced at or above $1.00, the Exchange currently charges a
fee of $0.0026 per share for Members' orders that yield Flag D, which
route or re-route orders to the NYSE. The Exchange proposes to amend
its Fee Schedule to increase the

fee for orders that yield Flag D to $0.0027 per share in securities
priced at or above $1.00.\4\ The proposed change represents a pass
through of the rate Direct Edge ECN LLC (d/b/a DE Route) (``DE
Route''), the Exchange's affiliated routing broker-dealer, is charged
for routing orders to the NYSE that remove liquidity when it does not
qualify for a volume tiered reduced fee. The proposed change is in
response to the NYSE's September 2014 fee change where the NYSE
increased its fee from $0.0026 per share to $0.0027 per share for
orders in securities priced at or above $1.00.\5\ When DE Route routes
to and removes liquidity on the NYSE, it will now be charged a standard
rate of $0.0027 per share.\6\ DE Route will pass through this rate it
is charged on the NYSE to the Exchange and the Exchange, in turn, will
pass through this rate to its Members.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Exchange does not propose to amend its fee for orders
that yield Flag D in securities priced below $1.00.
    \5\ See NYSE Trader Update dated August 21, 2014, http://
www1.nyse.com/pdfs/
NYSEClientNoticeFeeChange
092014.pdf.
    \6\ The Exchange notes that to the extent DE Route does or does
not achieve any volume tiered reduced fee on the NYSE, its rate for
Flag D will not change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to implement these amendment to its Fee
Schedule on September 2, 2014.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the objectives of Section 6 of the Act,\7\ in general, and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4),\8\ in particular, as it is
designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees and other charges among its Members and other persons using its
facilities. The Exchange believes that its proposal to increase the
fees for orders yielding Flag D represents an equitable allocation of
reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among Members and other
persons using its facilities. Prior to the NYSE's September 2014 fee
change, the NYSE charged DE Route a fee of $0.0026 per share in
securities priced at or above $1.00, which DE Route passed through to
the Exchange and the Exchange charged its Members. When DE Route routes
to the NYSE, it will now be charged a standard rate of $0.0027 per
share. The Exchange does not levy additional fees or offer additional
rebates for orders that it routes to the NYSE through DE Route.
Therefore, the Exchange believes that the proposed change to Flag D is
equitable and reasonable because it accounts for the pricing changes on
the NYSE, which enables the Exchange to charge its Members the
applicable pass-through rate. Lastly, the Exchange notes that routing
through DE Route is voluntary and believes that the proposed change is
non-discriminatory because it applies uniformly to all Members.

    The Exchange believes its proposed amendments to its Fee Schedule
would not impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange
does not believe that the proposed change represents a significant
departure from previous pricing offered by the Exchange or pricing
offered by the Exchange's competitors. Additionally, Members may opt to
disfavor EDGA's pricing if they believe that alternatives offer them
better value. Accordingly, the Exchange does not believe that the
proposed change will impair the ability of Members or competing venues
to maintain their competitive standing in the financial markets.
    In particular, the Exchange believes that its proposal to pass
through the amended fee for orders that yield Flag D would increase
intermarket competition because it offers customers an alternative
means to route to the NYSE for the same price that they would be
charged if they entered orders on those trading centers directly. The
Exchange believes that its proposal would not burden intramarket
competition because the proposed rate would apply uniformly to all
Members.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
