Federal Railroad Administration

Petition for Waiver of Compliance

    In accordance with part 211 of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), notice is hereby given that the Federal Railroad Administration
(FRA) has received a request for a waiver of compliance from certain
requirements of its safety standards. The individual petition is
described below, including the party seeking relief, the regulatory
provisions involved, the nature of the relief being requested, and the
petitioner's arguments in favor of relief.

Hoosier Valley Railroad Museum, Inc.

[Waiver Petition Docket Number FRA-2010-0161]

    The Hoosier Valley Railroad Museum, Inc. (HVRM) of North Judson,
Indiana, has petitioned for a permanent waiver of compliance for five
cabooses from the requirements of the Railroad Safety Glazing
Standards, title 49 CFR part 223, which require certified glazing in
all windows. The subject cabooses do not meet the glazing requirements
as per 49 CFR 223.13. The reporting marks on these cabooses, with
built-years in parentheses, are as follows: B&LE 1989 (1956), EL C345
(1953), NKP 471 (1962), GTW 75072 (1948) and EJ&E 184 (1970). HVRM
states that they are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the
mission to preserve railroad history in northwest Indiana. The subject
cabooses are used in tourist, historic and/or excursion operations for
the purpose of historic demonstration, photography and film production.
    The subject cabooses are only operated at limited track speed over
the Chesapeake & Indiana Railroad (CKIN) over tracks owned by the Town
of North Judson, Indiana, and are operated under yard limits subject to
the authority of CKIN. HVRM states that the installed glass is in good
condition, operations are in a benign environment, and the expense of
retrofitting the subject cabooses with FRA certified glazing will
impose a high financial burden.
    Interested parties are invited to participate in these proceedings
by submitting written views, data, or comments. FRA does not anticipate
scheduling a public hearing in connection with these proceedings since
the facts do not appear to warrant a hearing. If any interested party
desires an opportunity for oral comment, they should notify FRA, in
writing, before the end of the comment period and specify the basis for
their request.
    All communications concerning these proceedings should identify the
appropriate docket number (e.g., Waiver Petition Docket Number FRA-

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM); reopening
of comment period.

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

SUMMARY: We are revising an earlier proposal, which would have applied
to certain Airbus SAS Model A350-941 airplanes. This action revises the
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) by adding airplanes to the
applicability and proposing to require revised maintenance requirements
and airworthiness limitations. We are proposing this airworthiness
directive (AD) to address the unsafe condition on these products. Since
these changes would impose an additional burden over the proposed
requirements in the NPRM, we are reopening the comment period to allow
the public the chance to comment on these proposed changes.

DATES: The comment period for the NPRM published in the Federal
Register on June 11, 2018 (83 FR 26884), is reopened.
    We must receive comments on this SNPRM by December 21, 2018.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

Discussion

    We issued an NPRM to amend 14 CFR part 39 by adding an AD that
would apply to certain Airbus SAS Model A350-941 airplanes. The NPRM
published in the Federal Register on June 11, 2018 (83 FR 26884). The
NPRM was prompted by a determination that more restrictive maintenance
requirements and airworthiness limitations are necessary. The NPRM
proposed to require revising the existing maintenance or inspection
program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive
maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations.

Actions Since the NPRM Was Issued

    Since we issued the NPRM, the service information referenced in the
NPRM has been further revised to include new or more restrictive
maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2018-0179, dated August 23, 2018, to correct an unsafe condition on all
Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. EASA AD 2018-0179
states:

    Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR) for the Airbus
A350, which are approved by EASA, are currently defined and
published in the Airbus A350 ALS Part 3 document. These instructions
have been identified as mandatory for continued airworthiness.
    Failure to accomplish these instructions could result in an
unsafe condition.
    EASA previously issued AD 2018-0004 to require the actions as
specified in Airbus A350 ALS Part 3 Revision 04.
    Since this [EASA] AD was issued, Airbus published variation 4.2
of Airbus A350 ALS Part 3, to introduce new and more restrictive
CMRs.
    For the reason described above, this [EASA] AD requires
accomplishment of the actions specified in the ALS.

    EASA previously issued AD 2018-0004, dated January 9, 2018, to
correct an unsafe condition on all Airbus SAS Model A350-941 airplanes.
EASA AD 2018-0004 states:

    Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR) for the Airbus
A350, which are approved by EASA, are currently defined and
published in the Airbus A350 ALS Part 3 document. These instructions
have been identified as mandatory for continued airworthiness.
    Failure to accomplish these instructions could result in an
unsafe condition.
    EASA previously issued AD 2017-0029 to require the actions as
specified in Airbus A350 ALS Part 3 Revision 03.
    Since this [EASA] AD was issued, Airbus published Revision 04 of
Airbus A350 ALS Part 3, to introduce new and more restrictive CMRs.
    For the reason described above, this [EASA] AD retains the
requirements of EASA AD 2017-0029, which is superseded, and requires
accomplishment of the actions specified in the ALS.

    EASA ADs 2018-0004 and 2018-0179 are collectively referred to after
this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the
MCAI''. You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the internet at
http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No.
FAA-2018-0508.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus has issued A350 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) Part
3, Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR), Revision 04, dated
December 15, 2017, as supplemented by Airworthiness Limitations Section
(ALS) Part 3, Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR), Variation
4.2, dated July 26, 2018, which describes mandatory maintenance tasks
that operators must perform at specified intervals. This service
information is reasonably available because the interested parties have
access to it through their normal course of business or by the means
identified in the ADDRESSES section.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this proposed AD. We considered the comment received.

Request To Use Later-Approved Revisions of the Service Information

    Delta Air Lines (DAL) requested that we revise the proposed AD to
allow use of later-approved revisions of the service information. DAL
stated that the allowance of later-approved revisions would address the
Airworthiness Limitation and Type Design conflict cited in the
Supplemental Information section of the NPRM, without applying
conditions to the applicability that are related to the original
certificate of airworthiness date or original export certificate of
airworthiness date. DAL also stated that Airbus recommends that
operators consider implementing later-approved revisions to eliminate
the need for operators to obtain an alternative method of compliance
(AMOC) when updating maintenance programs to more current revisions and
variations of Airbus A350 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) Part
3, Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR). DAL stated that the
revisions and variations are EASA-approved documents and therefore FAA-
approved documents via bilateral agreements. DAL added that fewer AMOCs
would reduce the workload of both the FAA and operators.
    We disagree with the commenter's request. We may not refer to any
document that does not yet exist. Doing so violates Office of the
Federal Register (OFR) regulations for approval of materials
``incorporated by reference,'' as specified in 1 CFR 51.1(f). In
general terms, we are required by these OFR regulations to either
publish the service document contents as part of the actual AD
language; or submit the service document to the OFR for approval as
``referenced'' material, in which case we may only refer to such
material in the text of an AD. An AD may refer to the service document
only if the OFR approved it for ``incorporation by reference.'' See 1
CFR part 51.
    To allow operators to use later revisions of the referenced
document (issued after publication of the AD), either we must revise
the AD to refer to specific later revisions, or operators must request
approval to use later revisions as an AMOC with the AD under the
provisions of paragraph (i)(1) of this proposed AD. We have not changed
this proposed AD in this regard.

FAA's Determination and Proposed Requirements of This SNPRM

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.
    Certain changes described above expand the scope of the NPRM. As a
result, we have determined that it is necessary to reopen the comment
period to provide additional opportunity for the public to comment on
this SNPRM.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 11 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:
    We have determined that revising the existing maintenance or
inspection program takes an average of 90 work-hours per operator,
although this figure may vary from operator to operator. In the past,
we have estimated that this action takes 1 work-hour per airplane.
Since operators incorporate maintenance or inspection program changes
for their affected fleet(s), we have determined that a per-operator
estimate is more accurate than a per-airplane estimate. Therefore, we
estimate the total cost per operator to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85
per work-hour).

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: ``General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.
    This proposed AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated
by the Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as
authorized by FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order,
issuance of ADs is normally a function of the Compliance and
Airworthiness Division, but during this transition period, the
Executive Director has delegated the authority to issue ADs applicable
to transport category airplanes and associated appliances to the
Director of the System Oversight Division.

Regulatory Findings

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

substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between
the national Government and the States, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; and
    4. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

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

The Proposed Amendment

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

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority:  49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new airworthiness
directive (AD):

Airbus: Docket No. FAA-2018-0508; Product Identifier 2018-NM-012-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    We must receive comments by December 21, 2018.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041
airplanes, certificated in any category, with an original
certificate of airworthiness or original export certificate of
airworthiness issued on or before July 26, 2018.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 05, Time Limits/
Maintenance Checks.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by a determination that more restrictive
maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations are
necessary. We are issuing this AD to address safety-significant
latent failures that would, in combination with one or more other
specific failures or events, result in a hazardous or catastrophic
failure condition.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.

(g) Maintenance or Inspection Program Revision

    Within 90 days after the effective date of this AD, revise the
existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to
incorporate Airbus A350 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) Part
3, Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR), Revision 04, dated
December 15, 2017, as supplemented by Airworthiness Limitations
Section (ALS) Part 3, Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR),
Variation 4.2, dated July 26, 2018. The initial compliance time for
accomplishing the actions is at the applicable times specified in
Airbus A350 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) Part 3,
Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR), Revision 04, dated
December 15, 2017, including Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS)
Part 3, Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMR), Variation 4.2,
dated July 26, 2018; or within 90 days after the effective date of
this AD; whichever occurs later.

(h) No Alternative Actions or Intervals

    After the existing maintenance or inspection program has been
revised as required by paragraph (g) of this AD, no alternative
actions (e.g., inspections) or intervals, may be used unless the
actions or intervals are approved as an alternative method of
compliance (AMOC) in accordance with the procedures specified in
paragraph (i)(1) of this AD.

(i) Other FAA AD Provisions

    The following provisions also apply to this AD:
    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager,
International Section, Transport Standards Branch, FAA, has the
authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the
procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19,
send your request to your principal inspector or local Flight
Standards District Office, as appropriate. If sending information
directly to the International Section, send it to the attention of
the person identified in paragraph (j)(2) of this AD. Information
may be emailed to: [email protected]. Before using any
approved AMOC, notify your appropriate principal inspector, or
lacking a principal inspector, the manager of the local flight
standards district office/certificate holding district office.
    (2) Contacting the Manufacturer: For any requirement in this AD
to obtain corrective actions from a manufacturer, the action must be
accomplished using a method approved by the Manager, International
Section, Transport Standards Branch, FAA; or the European Aviation
Safety Agency (EASA); or Airbus SAS's EASA Design Organization
Approval (DOA). If approved by the DOA, the approval must include
the DOA-authorized signature.
    (3) Required for Compliance (RC): If any service information
contains procedures or tests that are identified as RC, those
procedures and tests must be done to comply with this AD; any
procedures or tests that are not identified as RC are recommended.
Those procedures and tests that are not identified as RC may be
deviated from using accepted methods in accordance with the
operator's maintenance or inspection program without obtaining
approval of an AMOC, provided the procedures and tests identified as
RC can be done and the airplane can be put back in an airworthy
condition. Any substitutions or changes to procedures or tests
identified as RC require approval of an AMOC.

(j) Related Information

    (1) Refer to Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information
(MCAI) EASA AD 2018-0179, dated August 23, 2018, and EASA AD 2018-

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-55018; File No. SR-Amex-2006-109]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; American Stock Exchange LLC;
Notice of Filing and Order Granting Accelerated Approval of a Proposed
Rule Change and Amendment No. 1 Thereto Relating to Listing Standards
for Series of Portfolio Depositary Receipts and Index Fund Shares

December 28, 2006.
    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 November 21, 2006, the American Stock Exchange LLC (``Amex'' 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 substantially prepared by the Exchange.
Amex filed Amendment No. 1 with the Commission on December 20, 2006.
This order provides notice of the proposed rule change as modified by
Amendment No. 1 and approves the proposed rule change on an accelerated
basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(l).
    \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 make clarifying changes to Amex Rules
1000, 1002, 1000A and 1002A and minor, typographical changes to Amex
Rules 1000, 1002 and 1002A, relating to listing standards for series of
portfolio depositary receipts and index fund shares (collectively,
``exchange-traded funds'' or ``ETFs''). The text of the proposed rule
change is available at Amex, at http://www.amex.com, 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 Amex 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 III below. The Amex 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 clarify the listing standards in Amex
Rules 1000, 1002, 1000A and 1002A governing ETFs, amendments to which
were approved by the Commission on November 9, 2006.\3\ In particular,
the Commission approved changes to Rules 1000 and 1000A to include
generic listing standards for series of ETFs that are based on
international or global indexes. Additionally, the Commission approved
revisions to Amex Rules 1000 and 1000A to include generic listing
standards for ETFs that are based on indexes or portfolios previously
approved by the Commission as an underlying benchmark for the trading
of ETFs, options or other specified index-based securities. These
changes enable the Exchange to list exchange-traded funds pursuant to
Rule 19b-4(e) of the Act \4\ if each of the conditions set forth in
Commentary .03 to Rule 1000 or Commentary .02 to Rule 1000A is
satisfied.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 54739 (November 9,
2006), 71 FR 66993 (November 17, 2006) (SR-Amex-2006-78).
    \4\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(e).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Rule 19b-4(e) provides that the listing and trading of a new
derivative securities product by a self-regulatory organization shall
not be deemed a proposed rule change under Rule 19b-4(c)(1) of the Act
\5\ if the Commission has approved, pursuant to Section 19(b) of the
Act, the self-regulatory organization's trading rules, procedures and
listing standards for the product class that would include the new
derivatives securities product and the self-regulatory organization has
a surveillance program for the product class.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(c)(1).
    \6\ When relying on Rule 19b-4(e), the SRO must submit Form 19b-
4(e) to the Commission within five business days after the exchange
begins trading the new derivative securities products. See Exchange
Act Release No. 40761 (December 8, 1998), 63 FR 70952 (December 22,
1998).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission also approved other minor clarifying changes to Amex
Rules 1000, 1002, 1000A and 1002A.
    In connection with those approved changes, the Exchange now
proposes to make additional clarifying changes to Rules 1000, 1002,
1000A and 1002A. Specifically, the Exchange proposes to amend the
definition of ``US Component Stock'' in Rules 1000(b)(3) and
1000A(b)(3). The definition of U.S. Component Stock was designed to
include any equity security that is registered under Sections 12(b) or
12(g) of the Act, and therefore to comprise all securities that are
subject to Commission oversight through registration. This definition
was intended to include American Depositary Receipts (``ADRs''), the
underlying security of which is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g)
of the Act. In the case of listed ADRs, it is the equity security
underlying an ADR that is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Act,
not the ADRs.\7\ Under Amex's generic listing standards,\8\ the ADR
would also be required to be listed on a national securities exchange
and be an NMS Stock as defined in Rule 600 of Regulation NMS.\9\
Consequently, the Exchange proposes to revise the definition of U.S.
Component Stock to clarify that, while the ADR would be considered the
U.S. Component Stock and therefore the index component for purposes of
satisfying the eligibility criteria, the ADR can only qualify as a ``US
Component Stock'' if the equity security underlying that ADR is

registered under Section 12(b) or Section 12(d) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See 17 CFR 240.12a-8.
    \8\ See Amex Rule 1000, Commentary .03(a)(A)(5), (a)(B)(5) and
(a)(C), and Amex Rule 1000A, Commentary .02(a)(A)(5), (a)(B)(5) and
(a)(C).
    \9\ 17 CFR 242.600.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange also proposes to modify Rule 1002(a)(ii) and Rule
1002A(a)(ii) to specify that the ETF issuer must provide the Exchange
with a representation that the net asset value per share will be
calculated daily and made available to all market participants at the
same time.
    Finally, the Exchange is proposing to make a number of minor,
typographical changes to Rules 1000, 1002 and 1002A.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6 of the Act,\10\ in general, and furthers the objectives
of Section 6(b)(5),\11\ 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, and to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a
free and open market and a national market system.

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.

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

    The Exchange did not receive any written comments on the proposed
rule change.

III. Solicitation of Comments

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change, as amended, is consistent with the Act. Comments may be

the proposed rule change between the Commission and any person, other
than those that may be withheld from the public in accordance with the
provisions of 5 U.S.C. 552, will be available for inspection and
copying in the Commission's Public Reference Room, 100 F Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20549. Copies of such filing also will be available for

submit only information that you wish to make available publicly. All
submissions should refer to File Number SR-Amex-2006-109 and should be
submitted on or before January 30, 2007.

IV. Discussion and Commission's Findings

    The Commission finds that the proposed rule change, as amended, is
consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities
exchange.\12\ In particular, the Commission believes that the proposal
is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\13\ which requires that
the rules of an exchange be 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, and to
remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open
market and a national market system, and in general protect investors
and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ In approving this proposal, the Commission has considered
its impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15
U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission believes that the proposal clarifies the Exchange's
listing criteria applicable to ETFs. The definition of ``US Component
Stock'' in Amex Rules 1000(b)(3) and 1000A(b)(3)1000 and 1000A will be
amended to make clear that it is the equity security underlying an ADR
that must be registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Act, not the ADR
itself. The Commission believes that this change is consistent with the
intent that the Exchange's definition of ``US Component Stock''
includes only securities that publicly disclose information under the
federal securities laws.\14\ In addition, the Commission believes the
Exchange's revisions to its Rules 1002(a)(ii) and 1002A(a)(ii)
specifying that the ETF issuer must provide a representation that the
net asset value per share will be calculated daily and disseminated to
market participants at the same time is consistent with the Act. The
Commission further believes that the additional proposed revisions to
Amex Rules 1000, 1002 and 1002A are minor, and should serve to clarify
the Exchange's listing standards.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ The Commission notes that, pursuant to the Amex's listing
rules, an ADR must also be listed on a national securities exchange
and must be an NMS stock under Rule 600 of Regulation NMS. 17 CFR
242.600.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Accelerated Approval

    The Commission finds good cause, consistent with Section 19(b)(2)
of the Act,\15\ for approving this proposed rule change, as amended,
before the thirtieth day after the publication of notice thereof in the
Federal Register. The Commission notes that accelerating approval will
enable the proposed rule clarifications to be implemented immediately
to the benefit of market participants.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

V. Conclusion

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\16\ that the proposed rule change, as amended (SR-Amex-2006-109),
is hereby approved on an accelerated basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
