Priorities for Fiscal Years 2008, 2009 and 2010

: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

ACTION: Announcement of National Priorities

SUMMARY: This Notice is a Federal Agency announcement of the triennial
national enforcement and compliance assurance priorities to be addressed
for fiscal years 2008, 2009 and 2010.  EPA appreciates the comments
submitted in March 2007 during the priority identification process in
response to the February 9th, 2007 FR Notice.  The final priority
selections have been incorporated into the EPA’s Office of Enforcement
and Compliance Assurance National Program Managers’ (NPM) Guidance
(which provides national program direction for all EPA Regional
offices).  These priorities also support implementation of the
enforcement and compliance goals and objectives outlined in Goal 5 of
EPA’s Strategic Plan, as mandated under the Government Performance and
Results Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

General Information

EPA’s Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance (OECA) selects
multi-year national priorities focusing on specific environmental
problems, risks, or patterns of noncompliance.  A performance based
strategy is developed for each national priority to characterize the
problem and set goals for addressing it.  The intent of this Notice is
to announce EPA’s enforcement and compliance assurance priorities for
the years 2008 – 2010.

The FY 2008 - 2010 OECA national priorities are shown below.

Clean Water Act-Stormwater

Clean Water Act-Combined Sewer Overflow

Clean Water Act-Sanitary Sewer Overflow

Clean Water Act-Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations

Clean Air Act-New Source Review/Prevention of Significant Deterioration

Clean Air Act-Air Toxics

RCRA & CERCLA-Financial Assurance

RCRA-Mineral Processing

Indian Country

refining capacity and was returned to the core program at the end of FY
2006.  It is important to note that discontinuation as a national
priority does not mean that the Agency will no longer focus on this
area, but rather the work will continue as part of the Agency’s core
program activities.

For each of the national priority areas, EPA has developed a strategy
designed to achieve specific goals.  The strategy summaries included
here contain a description of the environmental problem or noncompliance
problem; why the Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance is
addressing the problem; how the problem will be addressed; and,
highlights the progress made by the priorities for fiscal year 2005
through 2007.  The strategy summaries can be found at   HYPERLINK

            Supporting Statement for a Request for OMB Review under
                          The Paperwork Reduction Act

1	IDENTIFICATION OF THE INFORMATION COLLECTION

      1(a)	Title and Numbers of the Information Collection

		TITLE:  Safer Detergent Stewardship Initiative (SDSI) Program

		EPA ICR No.:   2261.04	OMB Control No.:  2070-0171

		Docket ID No.:   EPA-HQ-OPPT-2017-0297

      1(b)	Short Characterization

      This renewal information collection request (ICR) addresses the submission of applications to EPA for recognition under the Safer Detergent Stewardship Initiative (SDSI) Program. EPA announced the program as part of a Federal Register notice (71 FR 9337; February 23, 2006) that announced the availability of the Final Aquatic Life Ambient Water Quality Criteria for Nonylphenol. Nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEs) and their breakdown products, such as nonylphenol, are toxic to aquatic life. SDSI will complement EPA's Aquatic Life Criteria by encouraging the manufacture and use of safer surfactants, thus reducing the amount of nonylphenol ethoxylate surfactants and nonylphenol in streams and other water bodies. The Safer Choice (formerly Design for the Environment or "DfE") program has identified safer alternatives to NPE surfactants through its partnership work with industry and environmental advocates; many are comparable in cost and are readily available.

        Under SDSI, EPA recognizes environmental leaders who voluntarily commit to the use of safer surfactants. Safer surfactants are surfactants that break down quickly to non-polluting compounds. Surfactants are used in a wide variety of applications and products. Examples include detergents, cleaners, airplane deicers, and fire-fighting foams. SDSI is designed to encourage a shift to safer surfactants by companies unaware of the benefits of such a change. SDSI is also intended to attract companies that see value in the public recognition of corporate product stewardship that SDSI will provide.

      There are two categories for recognition under SDSI: Champion and Partner. Champion is the highest level of recognition offered under SDSI. At this level, the participant is listed on the EPA SDSI website as a Champion and may use a special logo in their literature to help explain their participation in the program. The Partner category provides recognition of significant accomplishment towards the use of safer surfactants. Partners will be listed on the EPA SDSI website and may be granted recognition as a Champion in the future, if appropriate.

      EPA may also ask respondents with Champion status to make information available to EPA for review to verify that Champion status respondents have not taken action that would disqualify them from continued recognition and use of EPA's SDSI logo in product literature. For example, in confirming continued eligibility for a formulating company, EPA would look to review information such as production-related records (which are already required by EPA) to ensure that the company used only safer surfactants (i.e., surfactants that break down quickly to non-polluting compounds) in its products.

      Candidates post a statement on their website describing the actions that qualify them for recognition under SDSI. Candidates also complete an application that describes the actions taken to qualify for recognition and have it signed by a company authority (e.g., Chief Executive Officer, or vice president with responsibility for product formulation).

2.	NEED FOR AND USE OF THE COLLECTION

	2(a)	Need/Authority for the Collection

      Authority for SDSI derives from section 6604 of the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) (42 U.S.C. 13103; see Attachment A). Section 6604(b)(5) of the PPA directs EPA to facilitate the adoption of source-reduction techniques by businesses. Also, section 6604(b)(13) directs EPA to establish an annual awards program to recognize a company or companies that operate outstanding or innovative source reduction programs. EPA developed SDSI in recognition of these directives and through consultation with a broad range of stakeholders.

      SDSI's information collection activities will assist the Agency in meeting the goals of the PPA by providing resources and recognition for businesses committed to promoting and using safer surfactants. In turn, SDSI will help businesses meet their corporate sustainability goals by providing the means to, and an objective measure of, environmental stewardship. Investment analysts and advisers seek these types of measures in evaluating a corporation's sustainability profile and investment worthiness. SDSI is also needed to promote greater use of safer surfactants by companies unaware of the benefits of such a change. EPA has carefully tailored its request for information, and especially the SDSI Application Form (EPA Form 6300-2), to ensure that it only asks for information essential to verifying an applicants' eligibility for award or recognition.

	2(b)	Practical Utility/Users of the Data

      The information collected by the SDSI program is not designed or intended to support regulatory decision-making by EPA. EPA uses the information collected in the SDSI Application Form to: (1) identify the candidate's commitment to promoting and using safer surfactants; (2) verify the candidate's involvement in promoting and using safer surfactants; and (3) determine the candidate's eligibility for award or recognition under SDSI.

      In addition, EPA and stakeholders will be able to track the progress of the program, both on the level of participation and expected environmental benefits. For environmental benefits, EPA will use its own Chemical Data Reporting Rule to establish a baseline and track changes in the levels of nonylphenol ethoxylate manufactured, imported and used in the United States. EPA may also make use of ongoing studies that monitor the level of contaminants, like nonylphenol, in various water bodies and sediment. EPA will review information sources for endpoints such as level of program participation, trends in surfactant use, and levels of toxic surfactant degrades in waters and sediment. Although EPA has not yet evaluated whether there is a correlation between SDSI participation and environmental outcomes, EPA remains committed to measuring the effectiveness of this program over the next three years.

3.   	NON-DUPLICATION, CONSULTATIONS, AND OTHER COLLECTION
	CRITERIA

	3(a)	Non-Duplication

      Respondents will not be asked to provide information that has been or is currently being collected by EPA, other federal or state agencies or proprietary sources. The information collected by the SDSI program is unique and is not duplicative of previous information collection requests. When developing the program, EPA also checked with trade associations and potential partners to confirm that the information being collected by the SDSI program does not exist elsewhere.

	3(b)	Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB

 	Prior to submission to OMB, this ICR will be made available to the public for comment through a Federal Register notice. The public will have 60 days to provide comments. Any comments received will be given consideration when completing the supporting statement that is submitted to OMB.

	3(c)	Consultations

      EPA announced its intentions to develop the SDSI program in February 2006. Since that announcement, EPA has received significant feedback on the SDSI program from stakeholders. EPA continues to work closely with stakeholders that include surfactant manufacturers, cleaning product formulators, environmentalists, water treatment facilities, and cleaning industry trade associations.

      Additionally, under 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), OMB requires agencies to consult with potential ICR respondents and data users about specific aspects of ICRs before submitting an ICR to OMB for review and approval. In accordance with this regulation, EPA will pursue consultations with interested parties during the development of the renewal of this collection.

	3(d)	Effects of Less Frequent Collection

      The SDSI Application Form is designed to be a one-time information submission for organizations that wish to participate in the SDSI program as either a Partner or Champion. In some instances, an organization that applies for Partner recognition may choose to re-apply at a later date for Champion recognition. Without this information, EPA will not be able effectively to determine whether companies are switching to safer surfactants nor recognize companies who successfully transition to safer surfactants.

      3(e)	General Guidelines

      The information collection activities discussed in this renewal ICR comply with all regulatory guidelines under 5 CFR 1320.5(d)(2).

	3(f)	Confidentiality

      No information collected by EPA under SDSI comprises confidential business information.

	3(g)	Sensitive Questions

      The information collection activities discussed in this document do not involve any sensitive questions.

4.	THE RESPONDENTS AND THE INFORMATION REQUESTED

	4(a)	Respondents and NAICS Codes

      SDSI seeks partners from establishments engaged in the production or use of surfactants, as well as establishments involved in the purchasing, distribution or use of products containing surfactants, whose use routinely results in their discharge to the environment. Others (e.g., non-profit organizations, unions, academia) may also qualify through active encouragement of the use of safer surfactants.

      Below is a list of North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes and associated industries that may be affected by information collection requirements covered under this ICR. This list is intended to be illustrative; entities from other industries may elect to apply for recognition through SDSI. However, EPA expects that most applications will come from the following industries:

NAICS Code
  Affected Industry
3256
  Soap, Cleaning Compound, and Toilet Preparation Manufacturing
424490
  Other Grocery and Related Products Merchant Wholesalers
424690
  Other Chemical and Allied Products Merchant Wholesalers
424990
  Other Miscellaneous Nondurable Goods Merchant Wholesalers
4451
  Grocery Stores

  Janitorial Services
561740
  Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Services
611310
  Colleges, Universities, and Professional Schools
7211
  Traveler Accommodation
8123
  Drycleaning and Laundry Services

	4(b)	Information Requested

      Once a prospective organization reviews the SDSI materials and decides to apply, it submits a SDSI Application Form (EPA Form 6300-2) (see Attachment B for complete form). Forms are available in hard copy or electronic form. Participants can use the hard copy forms they receive from EPA by mail or download PDF versions of the forms from the SDSI website. Applications will be received on an ongoing basis over the three years covered by this ICR. Champion status respondents maintain information already required by EPA, such as production-related records, that the Agency may review in order to verify that the company used only safer surfactants (i.e., surfactants that break down quickly to non-polluting compounds) in its products thereby confirming that their subsequent surfactant uses have not disqualified them from continued recognition and use of EPA's SDSI logo in product literature.

 Data items:

      The reporting items include:

 Facility name and website URL;
 Name, title, address, phone number, fax number, and e-mail address of the candidate's primary contact person;
 Status (partner or champion) for which the candidate is applying;
 Type of organization (e.g. manufacturing, purchasing, retail);
 Description of facility and any relevant affiliations;
 Descriptions of actions taken to qualify for recognition;
 Commitment statement, on the company's website or other public documents, showing one or more of the following (requirements vary by organization type and recognition level): evidence of a full or intended transition to safer surfactants; a strategy to ensure that only safer surfactants are used or purchased by specified dates; a written commitment to a full transition to safer surfactants within a specific time period; activities taken to date to promote the use of safer surfactants;
 Total production or use volume of surfactants, where applicable; and
 Signature, name, and title of a senior company authority (e.g., CEO or vice president for health and environment).

 Respondent activities:

      Candidates post a statement on their website describing the actions that qualify them for recognition under SDSI. In addition, candidates conduct the following activities in order to complete and submit the SDSI Application Form (EPA Form 6300-2):

 Review the SDSI information;
 Decide whether to apply for recognition, and whether to apply for partner or champion status;
 Select a primary contact person for the program;
 Complete the SDSI Application Form, including obtaining the signature of a company authority (e.g., CEO or vice president for health and environment);
 Describe how their organization meets the evaluation criteria for the relevant recognition;
 Fax, mail, or scan and e-mail the signed completed form to EPA; and
 Provide relevant documentation to EPA upon request.

5.	THE INFORMATION COLLECTED  -  AGENCY ACTIVITIES, COLLECTION
       METHODOLOGY, AND INFORMATION MANAGEMENT

      5(a)	Agency Activities

      Under SDSI, EPA engages in the following activities related to the SDSI Application Form:

 Maintain a downloadable PDF version on the SDSI website;
 Answer questions posed by potential applicants regarding recognition under the Initiative;
 Receive the completed forms, review for accuracy, and place any necessary follow-up calls; and
 Approve candidates for recognition and notify both successful and unsuccessful applicants of the decisions.

      EPA is committed to evaluating whether there is a correlation between SDSI participation and environmental outcomes by using Chemical Data Reporting Rule data to establish a baseline and track changes in the levels of nonylphenol ethoxylate manufactured, imported and used in the U.S. EPA may also make use of ongoing studies that monitor the level of contaminants, like nonylphenol, in various water bodies and sediment. EPA will review information sources for endpoints such as level of program participation, trends in surfactant use, and levels of toxic surfactant degradates in waters and sediment. EPA may also review a respondent's production-related records to verify that the company used only safer surfactants (i.e., surfactants that break down quickly to non-polluting compounds) in its products thereby confirming that their subsequent surfactant uses have not disqualified them from continued recognition and use of EPA's SDSI logo in product literature.
	5(b)	Collection Methodology and Management

      Respondents can obtain the SDSI Application Form in hard copy from EPA or by downloading it from the SDSI website. The signed, completed forms can be mailed, faxed or scanned and e-mailed to EPA. In collecting and analyzing the information associated with this ICR, EPA will use a telephone system, personal computers, and applicable database software. EPA will ensure the accuracy and completeness of collected information by reserving the right to request the list of ingredients (e.g., bills of lading, invoices) or other relevant documentation at any time to confirm that candidates have achieved the criteria for recognition.

	5(c)	Small Entity Flexibility

      EPA expects that some of the participants in the SDSI program will be small entities. EPA has designed its application form to minimize respondent burden while obtaining sufficient and accurate information. In addition, given the voluntary nature of the collection, EPA expects that respondents will participate only if the benefits of participation outweigh the information collection burden.

	5(d)	Collection Schedule

      Organizations may submit a one-time application for recognition as Partners or Champions at any time.

6.	ESTIMATING THE BURDEN AND COST OF THE COLLECTION

      Exhibit 6.1 presents the estimated burden hours and costs for all respondents during each of the three years covered under this ICR, assuming 10 hours per respondent. No capital or operations and management costs are incurred by respondents under this ICR.

      The data collection mechanism for SDSI is the SDSI Application Form (EPA Form 6300-2). In an effort to minimize burden and cost, the SDSI Application Form was designed with straightforward questions and in a way that one application package will serve all types of participants. The expected participant categories for SDSI are as follows: chemical manufacturers, formulators, retailers / distributors, institutional purchasers, and "others."  Among these participant categories, it is expected that the chemical manufacturers, formulators, retailers / distributors, and institutional purchasers will be private sector institutions. Within the participant category "others," it is expected that participants will represent unions, non-profits, or academia.

	6(a)	Estimating Respondent Burden

      The average respondent burden is estimated to be 10 hours per respondent. EPA used professional judgment to arrive at a burden estimate and then consulted representatives from the participant categories to evaluate whether the burden estimate was reasonable (see section 3(c)). Burden hours for the SDSI application package are for reporting purposes only and include posting relevant information on the applicant website.

      EPA expects that for a typical entity, program and application review will take about one hour (technical staff). Obtaining approval, which is likely to involve verifying assumptions with staff and ensuring support from multiple levels of management, will take about 3 hours (1 managerial, 1 technical, 1 clerical). Completing the application form will take about 5 hours (4 technical, 1 clerical) and posting information on a company website will take 1 hour (1 technical). Included in the application form estimate of 5 hours is the potential burden that would be incurred if EPA finds it necessary to verify the information in the application. For purposes of the burden estimate, EPA assumes that it will need to verify information from one organization in each participant category, and each audit will take about 8 hours. This burden, when distributed among all participants, is about 3 minutes per participant ((8 hours x 5 participants) / 12 total participants).

	6(b)	Estimating Respondent Costs

      EPA estimates an average loaded hourly labor rate (base hourly rate plus fringe and overhead) of $83 for managerial staff, $78 for technical staff, and $34 for clerical staff. These three labor rate estimates are based upon manufacturing industry wage data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Employer Costs for Employee Compensation, Supplementary Tables from December 2016 and are presented in Exhibit 6.2 of the supporting statement. The hourly labor rates include a 17% overhead; this overhead rate is used for consistency with OPPT economic analyses for two major rulemakings: Wage Rates for Economic Analyses of the Toxics Release Inventory Program and the Revised Economic Analysis for the Amended Inventory Update Rule: Final Report. In addition, the hourly labor rates have been rounded for the purposes of this ICR. The type of staff needed to complete the SDSI Application Form and their associated hourly labor rates were verified during the original information collection approved by OMB by contacting representatives from the participant categories. It is expected that these estimates will remain the same for this renewal.
      6(c)	Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs Burden

      EPA estimates that 12 applications will be submitted over the three-year life of the clearance. From 2010-2013, EPA received 84 SDSI applications. However, this number has been declining and EPA expects to receive about 12 applications over the next three years. Over the next three years, EPA expects additional companies will apply that may not have previously heard of SDSI or who have only recently met the criteria for Champion or Partner. Furthermore, based on past experience with SDSI, EPA estimates that the majority of participating companies will be formulators, along with a small number of chemical manufacturers, retailers/distributors, institutional purchasers, and others. The total burden hours and labor costs associated with this information collection over the three-year cycle are 120 hours and $8,364, respectively (see Exhibit 6.1). The annual burden and cost, therefore, are 40 hours and $2,788. This ICR does not impose capital or operation and maintenance costs.

	6(d)	Estimating Agency Burden and Costs

      Exhibit 6.3 presents the estimated Agency burden hours and costs associated with the information collection activities under this ICR. Other direct costs (copying, printing, telephone, and mailing expenses) are also included. EPA based its burden estimates on its experience managing this information collection and other voluntary programs.

      Based on the general schedule (GS) pay schedule, EPA estimates an average hourly labor rate (hourly rate plus the standard government overhead factor of 1.6) of $82 for managerial staff, $60 for technical staff, and $28 for clerical staff.   The Agency expects most activities to be performed by managerial staff (25 percent) and technical staff (75 percent).

	6(f)	Reasons for Change in Burden

	This request represents a decrease of 100 hours (from 140 hours to 40 hours) from that currently in the OMB inventory. This decrease reflects EPA's expectation, based on past experience, that significantly fewer respondents will apply for recognition as SDSI Champions or Partners in the next three years. This change is an adjustment.

	6(g)	Burden Statement

      The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 10 hours per response, including time for reviewing instructions, gathering information, and completing and reviewing the application. Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b). 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 are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15.

      The Agency has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPPT-2017-0297, which is available for online viewing at www.regulations.gov, or in-person viewing at the Pollution Prevention and Toxics Docket in the EPA Docket Center (EPA/DC).

oxirane in or on food commodity coffee bean at 0.05 parts per million
(ppm). Epoxiconazole residues are extracted from coffee beans with

methanol-water. After filtration and precipitation of the interfering
matrix components with calcium hydroxide, epoxiconazole is extracted
from the aqueous mixture with hexane and chromatographed on silica gel.
The samples are then analyzed by GC/ECD. Average recovery from
fortified control samples is 90  8% (n=22).

September 8, 2020.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act'') \2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that on August 25, 2020, Cboe BYX Exchange, Inc. (the
``Exchange'' or ``BYX'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described
in Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by the self-
regulatory organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to

    \3\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    Cboe BYX Exchange, Inc. (``BYX'' or the ``Exchange'') proposes to
update Rule 11.26(a), stating it will utilize MIAX PEARL market data
from the CQSUQDF for purposes of order handling, routing, execution,
and related compliance processes. The text of the proposed rule change
is provided in Exhibit 5.
    The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the
Exchange's website (http://markets.cboe.com/us/equities/regulation/rule_filings/byx/), at the Exchange's Office of the Secretary, 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 Exchange proposes to update Rule 11.26(a) regarding the public
disclosure of the sources of data that the Exchange utilizes when
performing: (i) Order handling; (ii) order routing; (iii) order
execution; and (iv) related compliance processes to reflect the
operation of the MIAX PEARL as an equities exchange.
    On August 14, 2020, the Commission approved MIAX PEARL's proposed
rule change to establish rules governing the trading of equities
securities.\4\ MIAX PEARL announced that it plans to launch equities
trading on September 25, 2020.\5\ The Exchange, therefore, proposes to
update Rule 11.26(a) regarding the public disclosure of the sources of
data that the Exchange utilizes when performing: (i) Order handling;
(ii) order routing; (iii) order execution; and (iv) related compliance
processes to reflect the operation of MIAX PEARL as an equities
exchange beginning on September 25, 2020. Specifically, the Exchange
proposes to amend Rule 11.26(a) to include MIAX PEARL by stating it
will utilize MIAX PEARL market data from the Consolidated Quotation
System (``CQS'')/UTP Quotation Data Feed (``UQDF'') for purposes of
order handling, routing, execution, and related compliance processes.
At this stage, no secondary source for MIAX PEARL market data will be
used.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act No. 89562 (August 14, 2020).
    \5\ See supra note 3 [sic].
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act,\6\ in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\7\ 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 regulating,
clearing, settling, processing information with respect to, and
facilitating transactions in securities, 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f.
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that its proposal to update Exchange Rule
11.26(a) to include MIAX PEARL will ensure that the Rule correctly
identifies and publicly states on a market-by-market basis all of the
specific network processor and proprietary data feeds that the Exchange
utilizes for the handling, routing, and execution of orders, and for
performing the regulatory compliance checks related to each of those
functions. The proposed rule changes also remove impediments to and
perfects the mechanism of a free and open market and protects investors
and the public interest because it provides additional specificity,
clarity and transparency.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange believes its proposed rule change would not impose any
burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. To the contrary, the Exchange
believes the proposal would enhance competition because including all
of the exchanges enhances transparency and enables investors to better
assess the quality of the Exchange's execution and routing services.

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

    The Exchange has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit,
comments on this proposed rule change. The Exchange has not received
any unsolicited written comments from Members or other interested
parties.

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) 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). 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 Exchange has fulfilled this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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.

IV. Solicitation of Comments
