Electric Quarterly Reports; Revised Public Utility Filing Requirements; Notice of Extension of Time February 11, 2003. On December 19, 2002, the Commission issued Order 2001   C ( published 12/ 27/ 02, Vol. 67 FR 79077), requiring future Electric Quarterly Reports to be filed using the new Electric Quarterly Report Submission Software. The fourth quarter Electric Quarterly Reports were originally due to be filed on or before January 31, 2003. This deadline was previously extended to February 14, 2003. On February 10, 2003, a bug was found in the program that inactivated some of the error checking on imported transaction data. The submission capability was temporarily disabled in order to preclude erroneous data from being filed at the Commission. A new version of the software was released today which reactivated the edit checks. This version will be automatically uploaded to the respondents' computers upon opening the Electric Quarterly Report application. Utilities that had previously imported data which passed the data integrity checks may find that some of their data will not pass the current edits. In consideration of this situation, we would like to allow utilities more time to correct their data to ensure that they can file successfully. Notice is hereby given that the time to file the fourth quarter 2002 Electric Quarterly Report is extended to and including February 21, 2003.

III. How Can I Respond to this Action?

A. How and To Whom Do I Submit Comments?

You may submit comments electronically, by mail, or through hand delivery/ courier. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, identify the appropriate docket ID number in the subject line on the first page of your comment. Please ensure that your comments are submitted within the specified comment period. Comments received after the close of the comment period will be marked `` late.'' EPA is not required to consider these late comments. If you wish to submit CBI or information that is otherwise protected by statute, please follow the instructions in Unit III. B. Do not use EPA Dockets or e mail to submit CBI or information protected by statute. 1. Electronically. If you submit an electronic comment as prescribed in this unit, EPA recommends that you include your name, mailing address, and an email address or other contact information in the body of your comment. Also include this contact information on the outside of any disk or CD ROM you submit, and in any cover letter accompanying the disk or CD ROM. This ensures that you can be identified as the submitter of the comment and allows EPA to contact you in case EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties or needs further information on the substance of your comment. EPA's policy is that EPA will not edit your comment, and any identifying or contact information provided in the body of a comment will be included as part of the comment that is placed in the official public docket, and made available in EPA's electronic public docket. If EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment. i. EPA Dockets. Your use of EPA's electronic public docket to submit comments to EPA electronically is EPA's preferred method for receiving comments. Go directly to EPA Dockets at http:// www. epa. gov/ edocket, and follow the online instructions for submitting comments. Once in the system, select `` search,'' and then key in docket ID number OPP   2003   0003. The system is an `` anonymous access'' system, which means EPA will not know your identity, e mail address, or other contact information unless you provide it in the body of your comment. ii. E mail. Comments may be sent by e mail to opp docket@ epa. gov, Attention: Docket ID Number OPP   2003   0003.

To ensure proper receipt by EPA, be sure to identify the docket ID number assigned to this action in the subject line on the first page of your response. You may also provide the name, date, and Federal Register citation.

D. What Information is EPA Particularly Interested in? Pursuant to section 3506( c)( 2)( A) of the PRA, EPA specifically solicits comments and information to enable it to: 1. Evaluate whether the proposed collections of information are necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the information will have practical utility. 2. Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency's estimates of the burdens of the proposed collections of information. 3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected. 4. Minimize the burden of the collections of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated or electronic collection technologies or other forms of information technology, e. g., permitting electronic submission of responses.

IV. What Information Collection Activity or ICR Does this Action Apply to? EPA is seeking comments on the following ICR: Title: Recordkeeping Requirements for Certified Applicators Using 1080 Collars on Livestock. ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1249.07, OMB Control No. 2070   0074. ICR status: This ICR is a renewal of an existing ICR that is currently approved by OMB and is due to expire September 30, 2003. Abstract: This ICR affects approximately 75 certified pesticide applicators who utilize 1080 toxic collars for livestock protection. Four states ( Montana, New Mexico, South Dakota, and Wyoming) monitor the program, and five pesticide registrants are required to keep records of: ( 1) Number of collars purchased; ( 2) number of collars placed on livestock; ( 3) number of collars punctured or ruptured; ( 4) apparent cause of puncture or rupture; ( 5) number of collars lost or unrecovered; ( 6) number of collars in use and in storage; and ( 7) location and species data on each animal poisoned as an apparent result of the toxic collar. Applicators maintain records, and the registrants/ lead agencies do monitoring studies and submit the reports. These records are monitored by either the: State lead agencies; EPA regional offices; or the registrants. EPA receives annual monitoring reports from registrants or State lead agencies. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and included on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable.

V. What are EPA's Burden and Cost Estimates for this ICR?

Under the PRA, `` burden'' means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal Agency. For this collection it includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. The ICR provides a detailed explanation of this estimate, which is only briefly summarized in this notice. The annual public burden for this ICR is estimated to be 3,353 hours. The following is a summary of the estimates taken from the ICR: Respondents/ affected entities: Certified pesticide applicators who utilize 1080 collars for livestock protection; state agencies that implement a 1080 collar monitoring program in Montana, New Mexico, South Dakota, or Wyoming; one of five registrants required to keep records pertaining to use of 1080 collars for livestock protection. Estimated total number of potential respondents: 84. Frequency of response: Annual. Estimated total/ average number of responses for each respondent: 3. Estimated total annual burden hours: 3,353. Estimated total annual burden costs: $ 40,792.

VI. Are There Changes in the Estimates from the Last Approval?

Total respondent costs associated with this program rose from $ 38,448 to $ 40,792. Total agency costs rose from $ 8,845 to $ 10,150. Changes to total costs associated with this program are due to the increase in labor rates, reflecting the most current estimates.

VII. What is the Next Step in the Process for this ICR?

EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. EPA will issue another Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5( a)( 1)( iv) to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB. If you have any questions about this ICR or the approval process, please contact the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

Amendment 39-16737; AD 2011-14-02]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Model 767 Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive
(AD) that applies to all Model 767 airplanes. The existing AD currently
requires repetitive detailed and high frequency eddy current (HFEC)
inspections of the station (STA) 1809.5 bulkhead for cracking, and
corrective actions if necessary. This AD expands the inspection area to
include the vertical inner chord at STA 1809.5. This AD results from
reported fatigue cracking in the vertical inner chord and the forward
outer chord while doing the detailed inspection of the horizontal inner
chord at STA 1809.5. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct
fatigue cracking in the bulkhead structure at STA 1809.5 and the
vertical inner chord at STA 1809.5, which could result in failure of
the bulkhead structure for carrying the flight loads of the horizontal
stabilizer, and consequent loss of controllability of the airplane.

DATES: This AD becomes effective November 16, 2011.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of November 16,
2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 to include an AD that supersedes AD 2006-24-04, Amendment
39-14833 (71 FR 68432, November 27, 2006). The existing AD applies to
all Model 767 airplanes. That NPRM was published in the Federal
Register on February 8, 2010 (75 FR 6154). That NPRM proposed to
continue to require repetitive detailed and HFEC inspections of the STA
1809.5 bulkhead for cracking, and corrective actions if necessary. That
NPRM also proposed to expand the inspection area to include the
vertical inner chord at STA 1809.5.

Comments

    We provided the public the opportunity to participate in the
development of this AD. We have considered the comments that have been
received on the NPRM (75 FR 6154, February 8, 2010).

Support for the NPRM

    Continental Airlines (CAL) stated that it supports the intent of
the NPRM (75 FR 6154, February 8, 2010).

Request To Revise Paragraph (k)(1) of the NPRM

    Boeing requested that we revise the compliance time in paragraph
(k)(1) of the NPRM (75 FR 6154, February 8, 2010) to state ``whichever
occurs later'' rather than ``whichever occurs first.'' Boeing stated
that a similar AD, AD 2006-24-04 (71 FR 68432, November 27, 2006) (the
AD being superseded), provides a choice of the later of two compliance
times. Boeing stated that changing the compliance time language in
paragraph (k)(1) of the NPRM would make this AD consistent with AD
2006-24-04.
    We agree with the request for the reasons provided by the
commenter, and we have revised paragraph (k)(1) of this final rule
accordingly.

Request To Add Model 767-300BCF and 767-200SF Structural Repair Manuals
(SRMs) To Clarify Terminating Action

    Boeing requested that we specify Model 767-300BCF and Model 767-
200SF SRMs in paragraphs (i) and (m) of the NPRM (75 FR 6154, February
8, 2010) to clarify the terminating action for converted Model 767-200
and -300 series airplanes. Boeing stated that some Model 767-300
airplanes have been converted to Model 767-300BCF airplanes, and some
Model 767-200 airplanes have been converted to Model 767-200SF
airplanes. Boeing stated that the Model 767-200SF and Model 767-

300BCF SRMs differ from the Model 767-200 and Model 767-300 SRMs.
    We partially agree with the request. The Model 767-300BCF is unique
and has its own SRM documents. We have added the Model 767-300BCF SRMs
to paragraphs (i) and (j) of this final rule and table 1 of this final
rule (table 1 follows paragraph (l) of this final rule; paragraph (l)
of this final rule was referred to as paragraph (m) in the NPRM (75 FR
6154, February 8, 2010)).
    However, the Boeing Model 767-200SF SRM does not include Subject
53-80-08, which is the subject referenced in paragraphs (i) and (l) of
this AD; therefore, we have not changed the AD in regard to this model.
The Model 767-200SF is unique and has its own SRM documents. After that
material is developed, we will consider requests for approval of an
alternative method of compliance (AMOC) under the provisions of
paragraph (n) of this final rule.

Request To Clarify and Revise Paragraph (h) of the NPRM

    CAL requested that we clarify the AMOC requirements of paragraph
(h) of the NPRM (75 FR 6154, February 8, 2010). CAL asserted that
paragraph 3.B. of the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Alert
Service Bulletin 767-53A0131, Revision 1, dated March 12, 2009, allows
repair of the vertical inner chord in accordance with Repair 11 of
Subject 53-80-08; therefore, the vertical inner chord needs to be added
to paragraph (h) of the NPRM as an exclusion to the AMOC requirements.
    We agree with commenter's request for the reasons provided. We have
revised paragraph (h) of this AD to add the reference to the vertical
inner chord, as requested by CAL.
    CAL also stated that for repairs or replacements of stringers and
non-principal structural elements (PSE) parts (e.g., attach brackets,
support clips, etc.), an AMOC should not be necessary. For instance,
Parts 3 and 4 of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-53A0131, Revision 1,
dated March 12, 2009, specify the detailed inspection of the structure
surrounding the forward outer chord of the STA 1809.5 bulkhead, and the
corresponding figures illustrate the inspection area, which encloses
the stringers and attach fittings. As written, CAL stated that
paragraph (h) of the NPRM (75 FR 6154, February 8, 2010) will prevent
operators from making stringer repairs/replacements using ``SRM 53-00-
03'' without first obtaining an AMOC. CAL stated further that replacing
cracked clips and brackets using certain ``Boeing drawings'' should not
require an AMOC.
    CAL also requested that we revise paragraph (h) of the NPRM (75 FR
6154, February 8, 2010) to read as follows: ``If any cracking is found
in the skin or the STA 1809.5 bulkhead's principal structural elements
(PSE) other than the forward outer chord, horizontal inner chord, and
vertical inner chord during any inspection required by paragraph (g) or
(k) of this AD, and Boeing Service Bulletin 767-53A0131, dated March
30, 2006; or Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-53A0131, Revision 1,
dated March 12, 2009; specifies to contact Boeing for appropriate
action: Before further flight, repair the cracking using a method
approved in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph (n)
of this AD. When replacing cracked parts per the Boeing drawings or
repairing stringers per 767 SRM 53-00-03, approval in accordance with
the procedures specified in paragraph (n) of this AD is not required.''
    We partially agree with the request to revise paragraph (h) of this
final rule. In order for a method of compliance other than the
method(s) provided by the AD to be used, that method must be approved
under the provisions of paragraph (n) of this AD. It is crucial that
the FAA and Boeing are aware of all repairs made to PSEs or surrounding
structure, and that damage tolerance be performed on each repair to
establish its effect on the fatigue life of the affected structure.
    In addition, we have determined that repairing/replacing the
stringers in accordance with the SRM referenced by the commenter is an
acceptable method of compliance for those specific requirements of
paragraph (h) of this AD. We have revised paragraph (h) of this AD
accordingly.
    However, we disagree with including references to ``Boeing
drawings'' for replacing cracked clips and brackets. We must cite
specific service information (with dates and revision levels) in our
ADs and would need to have the applicable drawings submitted for review
prior to including those drawings in an AD. Each operator may be using
different Boeing drawings as reference for replacing cracked clips and
brackets. In addition, we do not consider it appropriate to include
various provisions in an AD applicable only to certain airplanes or to
a single operator's unique use of an affected airplane. Individual
operators may request approval of an AMOC, provided sufficient data are
submitted to substantiate such a request.

Request To Clarify the Requirements of Paragraph (l) of the NPRM

    ABX requested clarification as to why paragraph (l) of the NPRM (75
FR 6154, February 8, 2010) is included. ABX stated that the NPRM
specifies the limits in each applicable paragraph, and that the NPRM
does not refer to paragraph 1.E., ``Compliance,'' of Boeing Alert
Service Bulletin 767-53A0131, Revision 1, dated March 12, 2009. ABX
stated that the inclusion of paragraph (l) of the NPRM leads one to
believe that somewhere in the NPRM other limits are hidden.
    We agree to provide clarification. We have determined that
paragraph (l) of the NPRM (75 FR 6154, February 8, 2010) was included
unnecessarily because the NPRM did not refer to paragraph 1.E.,
``Compliance,'' of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-53A0131, Revision
1, dated March 12, 2009. Therefore, we have removed that paragraph and
other references to it from this final rule.

Request To Revise Note 1 of the NPRM

    ABX requested that we revise Note 1 of the NPRM (75 FR 6154,
February 8, 2010) from ``Guidance on modifying a vertical inner chord *
* *'' to ``Approved methods on modifying a vertical inner chord * * *''
ABX stated that Table 1 of the NPRM lists service information that
provides guidance on modifying a vertical inner chord. ABX noted that
this service information does not appear to be approved by the Manager
of the Seattle Aircraft Certification Office (ACO). ABX stated that it
believes that this service information should be approved for
terminating action for the condition of no cracking found during the
most recent detailed and HFEC inspections. ABX noted that the
modification, with the removal of the damaged area, is approved as a
terminating action when the cracks are found. ABX stated that it
believes that the modification should also be approved when no cracks
are found.
    We partially agree. We agree that accomplishing the terminating
modification specified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-53A0131,
Revision 1, dated March 12, 2009, terminates the applicable inspections
for airplanes on which cracking is found and those on which cracking is
not found. We have removed Note 1 of the NPRM (75 FR 6154, February 8,
2010) from the final rule and, instead, have revised paragraph (l) of
the final rule to incorporate the information in Note 1 to specify that
the optional terminating modification may also be done in

accordance with the applicable Boeing 767 SRM. In addition, paragraph
(m) of this final rule specifies that if any cracking is found during
any modification done in accordance with paragraph (l) of this AD, and
the applicable Boeing 767 SRM specifies to contact Boeing for
appropriate action, the cracking must be repaired in accordance with a
method approved by the Manager of the Seattle Aircraft Certification
Office. We also note that the SRM is an FAA-approved document.

Explanation of Additional Changes to This AD

    We have added a new table 1 to this final rule to provide the
applicable, current SRMs; we have re-identified subsequent tables
accordingly.
    We have changed paragraphs (i) and (l) of this final rule to
specify specific steps of the applicable SRM identified in table 1 of
this AD. We have also reformatted paragraphs (i) and (l) of this final
rule to differentiate the methods of compliance, and added new Note 1
and Note 2 to this final rule to explain the reformatting changes.
    We have revised the references to the SRM in the following
locations to accurately identify Subject 53-80-08, Fuselage Bulkheads--
Section 48: Paragraphs (i)(2)(i) through (i)(2)(v), (i)(3), (i)(4)(i)
through (i)(4)(v), (i)(5), (j), and (l)(1) of this AD.

Conclusion

    We have carefully reviewed the available data, including the
comments that have been received, and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting the AD with the changes described
previously. We have determined that these changes will neither increase
the economic burden on any operator nor increase the scope of the AD.

Explanation of Change to Costs of Compliance

    Since issuance of the NPRM (75 FR 6154, February 8, 2010), we have
increased the labor rate used in the Costs of Compliance from $80 per
work-hour to $85 per work-hour. The Costs of Compliance information,
below, reflects this increase in the specified hourly labor rate.

Costs of Compliance

    There are about 975 airplanes of the affected design in the
worldwide fleet. The following table provides the estimated costs for
U.S. operators to comply with this AD.

                                                                     Estimated Costs

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.

Regulatory Findings

    We have determined that this AD will not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a
substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between
the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866;
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and
    (3) 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket. See the ADDRESSES
section for a location to examine the regulatory evaluation.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

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

Adoption of the Amendment

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

New Requirements of This AD

Inspections

    (k) At the later of the times specified in paragraphs (k)(1) and
(k)(2) of this AD: Do the detailed and HFEC inspections for cracking
as specified in Parts 5 and 6 of the Accomplishment Instructions of
Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-53A0131, Revision 1, dated March

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-77251; File No. SR-MIAX-2016-06]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Miami International Securities
Exchange LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a
Proposed Rule Change To Amend the MIAX Options Fee Schedule

February 29, 2016.
    Pursuant to the provisions of 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 February 26, 2016, Miami International
Securities Exchange LLC (``MIAX'' or ``Exchange'') filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') a proposed rule
change as described in Items I and II, 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 240.19bb-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange is filing a proposal to amend the MIAX Options Fee
Schedule (``Fee Schedule'').
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
Web site at http://www.miaxoptions.com/filter/wotitle/rule_filing, at
MIAX's principal office, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the 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 the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The purpose of the proposed rule change is to broaden the
description of the information that is provided to users of the MIAX
Financial Information Exchange (``FIX'') Drop Copy Port to reflect
information regarding trade corrections and trade cancellations.
    The FIX Drop Copy Port is a messaging interface that currently
provides a copy of real-time trade execution information through a FIX
Port \3\ to FIX Drop Copy Port users who subscribe to the service. FIX
Drop Copy Port users are those users who are designated by an
Electronic Exchange Member (``EEM'') \4\ to receive the information and
the information is restricted for use by the EEM only. The Exchange
assesses a monthly per port fee to users of the FIX Drop Copy Ports.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ A FIX Port is an interface with MIAX systems that enables
the Port user (typically an Electronic Exchange Member or a Market
Maker) to submit orders electronically to MIAX. The term
``Electronic Exchange Member'' means the holder of a Trading Permit
who is not a Market Maker. Electronic Exchange Members are deemed
``members'' under the Exchange Act. See Exchange Rule 100. The term
``Market Makers'' refers to ``Lead Market Makers,'' ``Primary Lead
Market Makers'' and ``Registered Market Makers'' collectively. A
Lead Market Maker is a Member registered with the Exchange for the
purpose of making markets in securities traded on the Exchange and
that is vested with the rights and responsibilities specified in
Chapter VI of these Rules with respect to Lead Market Makers. A
Primary Lead Market Maker is a Lead Market Maker appointed by the
Exchange to act as the Primary Lead Market Maker for the purpose of
making markets in securities traded on the Exchange. A Registered
Market Maker is a Member registered with the Exchange for the
purpose of making markets in securities traded on the Exchange, who
is not a Lead Market Maker. See Exchange Rule 100.
    \4\ See id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FIX Drop Copy Port currently provides the user with a copy of
real-time trade execution updates. The updates contain a copy of trade
execution messages on a low latency, real-time basis. A FIX Drop Copy
Port can be configured to monitor any number of FIX Ports used by that
EEM and a FIX Port user can have any number of FIX Drop Copy Ports. The
FIX Drop Copy Port sends messages containing reports of order
executions to the user based upon the group of FIX Ports that it is
configured to monitor.
    The Exchange proposes to provide FIX Drop Copy Port users with
information regarding trade corrections and trade cancellations in
addition to the information regarding trade executions currently
received by such users. The purpose of including this additional
information in the FIX Drop Copy Port without charge is to enhance the
service provided by the Exchange by way of a value-added feature that
transmits trade correction and cancellation information directly to FIX
Drop Copy Port users. Moreover, this value-added feature enhances
transparency on the Exchange respecting the status of trade corrections
and cancellations submitted to the Exchange.
    MIAX currently assesses a FIX Drop Copy Port fee of $500 per port
per month based on the number of FIX Drop Copy Ports to which a user
subscribes and the fee includes connectivity to the Exchange's primary,
secondary and disaster recovery data centers at no additional cost. The
Exchange is not proposing a change to the FIX Drop Copy Port fee.
    The proposed change to the information provided to FIX Drop Copy

Port users will be implemented on a date announced by the Exchange by
Regulatory Circular.
2. Statutory Basis
    MIAX believes that its proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 6(b) of the Act \5\ in general, and furthers the objectives of
Section 6(b)(5) of the Act \6\ in particular, in that it is designed to
prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just
and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and
coordination with persons engaged in facilitating transactions in
securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanisms of a
free and open market and a national market system and, in general, to
protect investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The proposed rule change is designed to protect investors and the
public interest and to promote just and equitable principles of trade
by adding transparency to the Exchange's marketplace through the new
information included in the FIX Drop Copy Port at no additional cost.

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. The proposed enhancement of
services by the Exchange provided to its Members and others using its
facilities will not have an impact on competition. In fact, MIAX's
proposed additional information provided to users of the FIX Drop Copy
Port at no additional cost will benefit all Members who desire to use
such services.
    The FIX Drop Copy Port will continue to be offered as a service for
FIX Drop Copy Port users at the same price, which is within the range
of prices for similar ports offered by other exchanges,\7\ and
therefore the Exchange believes that the current price of the port fee
does not impose a burden on competition.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See NYSE Arca Options Fees and Charges, p. 12, and NYSE Amex
Options Fee Schedule, p .24. Both NYSE Arca Options and NYSE Amex
Options charge $500 per port per month for a drop copy port.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

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

    Because the 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) of the Act \8\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). As required under Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii), the Exchange provided the Commission with written
notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a
brief description and the 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6) under the
Act \10\ normally does not become operative for 30 days after the date
of its filing. However, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) \11\ permits the
Commission to designate a shorter time if such action is consistent
with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange
has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that
the proposal may become operative immediately upon filing. The
Commission believes that waiver of the operative delay is consistent
with the protection of investors and the public interest because it
would enable market participants to benefit from the additional
information provided in the FIX Drop Copy Port without undue delay.
Therefore, the Commission hereby waives the operative delay and
designates the proposal operative upon filing.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \12\ 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 change 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
