Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[FERC Docket No. CP09-54-000]

Ruby Pipeline, L.L.C.; Notice of Availability of the Final
Environmental Impact Statement for the Proposed Ruby Pipeline Project

January 8, 2010.
    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission
or FERC) has prepared a final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for
the Ruby Pipeline Project proposed by Ruby Pipeline, L.L.C. (Ruby) in
the above-referenced docket. Ruby requests authorization to construct a
new pipeline in Wyoming, Utah, Nevada, and Oregon to transport up to
1.5 million dekatherms per day of natural gas from southwestern Wyoming
to customers in Nevada and on the West Coast (Washington, Oregon, and
northern California).
    The final EIS assesses the potential environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the Ruby Pipeline Project in accordance
with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA). The FERC staff concludes that approval of the proposed project,
with the mitigation measures recommended in the EIS and the additional
measures and agreements being developed by Ruby with other agencies,
would have some adverse environmental impacts; however, most impacts
would be reduced to less-than-significant levels.
    The following agencies participated as cooperating agencies in the
preparation of the EIS:
     Bureau of Land Management (BLM);
     Bureau of Reclamation;
     U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service;
     U.S. Forest Service (USFS);
     Natural Resources Conservation Service;
     U.S. Army Corps of Engineers;
     State of Utah Public Lands Policy Coordination Office; and
     Board of County Commissioners in Lincoln County, Wyoming.
    Cooperating agencies have jurisdiction by law or special expertise
with respect to resources potentially affect by the proposal and
participate in the NEPA analysis. While the conclusions and
recommendations presented in the EIS were developed with input from the
cooperating agencies, the agencies will present their own conclusions
and recommendations in their respective Records of Decision for the
project.

    The final EIS addresses the potential environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the following project facilities:
     About 675.2 miles of 42-inch-diameter mainline pipeline;
     About 2.6 miles of 42-inch-diameter lateral pipeline;
     An electric-powered compressor station and 3 natural gas-
powered compressor stations (totaling 160,500 horsepower of new
compression);
     5 meter stations containing interconnects to other
pipeline systems;
     44 mainline valves;
     20 pig launchers or receivers; and
     4 new communication towers.
    The final EIS has been placed in the public files of the FERC and
is available for public viewing on the FERC's Web site at http://
www.ferc.gov. A limited number of copies are available for distribution
and public inspection at: Federal Regulatory Energy Commission, Public
Reference Room, 888 First St., NE.; Room 2A, Washington, DC 20426,
(202) 502-8371.
    Copies of the EIS have been mailed to Federal, State, and local
government agencies; elected officials; Native American tribes; local
libraries and newspapers; parties to the Commission's proceeding;
individuals who provided scoping comments or commented on the draft
EIS; and individuals who requested to remain on the environmental
mailing list for this project. Hard copy versions of the EIS were
mailed to those specifically requesting them; all others received a CD-
ROM version.
    Additional information about the project is available from the
Commission's Office of External Affairs, at 1-866-208-FERC (3372) or on
the FERC Web site (http://www.ferc.gov) using the eLibrary link. Click

Availability and Summary of Documents Proposed for Incorporation by
Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.9Z, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2015, and effective
September 15, 2015. FAA Order 7400.9Z is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.9Z lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by establishing Class E surface area
airspace designated as an extension to the Class D airspace at Whiteman
Airport, Los Angeles, CA. The Class E surface area airspace would
extend from the 3-mile radius of Whiteman Airport to 6.6 miles
northwest of the airport for the safety and management of IFR
operations.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6004, of
FAA Order 7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15,
2015, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined this proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore; (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) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified this proposed rule, when promulgated, would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11E, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated July 21, 2020, and effective
September 15, 2020. FAA Order 7400.11E is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 by:
    Amending the Class D airspace at Gila Bend AF Aux Airport, Gila
Bend, AZ, by updating the geographic coordinates of the airport to
coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database; and replacing the
outdated term ``Airport/Facility Directory'' with ``Chart Supplement'';
And revoking the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface to at Gila Bend AF Aux airport as it is no longer required.
    This action is the result of a biennial review of the airspace.
    Class D and Class E airspace designations are published in
paragraph 5000 and 6005 of FAA Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and
effective September 15, 2020, which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The Class D and E airspace designations listed in this
document will be published subsequently in the Order.
    FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore: (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) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a

routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures and air
navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, would not
have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-OAR-2021-0240 FRL-10022-34-OAR]

Technical Documentation for the Temperature Binning Framework

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of document availability and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing a 30-
day public comment period for the draft document titled, ``Technical
Documentation for the Temperature Binning Framework'' (EPA 430-R-21-
004). This document provides technical documentation of a framework for
analyzing the sector-specific impacts of climate change under different
levels of warming. This approach serves as an alternative or complement
to traditional scenario-based approaches in order to improve
communication of results, comparability between studies, and
flexibility to facilitate scenario analysis. The draft technical
documentation will also be subject to external peer review. Prior to
finalizing the draft document, EPA intends to carefully consider all
comments received from the public and from external peer reviewers.
This draft document is not final as described in EPA's information
quality guidelines and does not represent and should not be construed
to represent Agency policy or views. The draft document is available
via the internet on EPA's web page at https://www.epa.gov/cira/temperature-binning-framework.

DATES: To ensure your comments are considered for the final version of
the document, please submit your comments by May 17, 2021.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-
OAR-2021-0240, to the Federal Portal: https://www.regulations.gov.
Follow the online instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted,
comments cannot be edited or withdrawn. Do not submit electronically
any information you consider to be Confidential Business Information
(CBI). EPA may publish any comment received to its public docket,
submitted to the Federal Portal, or sent via email. For additional
submission methods, the full EPA public comment policy, information
about CBI, and general guidance on making effective comments, please

Protection Agency, Office of Air and Radiation, Office of Atmospheric
Programs, Climate Change Division,<PHONE_NUMBER><EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Characterizing the future risks of climate
change is a key goal of climate impacts analysis. Temperature binning
provides a framework for analyzing sector-specific impacts by degree of
warming as an alternative or complement to traditional scenario-based
approaches. This framework aims to improve communication of results,
comparability between studies, flexibility to facilitate scenario
analysis, and evaluation of important sources of uncertainty. This
technical documentation describes the design, structure, and scientific
basis of this framework, including how impact modeling projections for
a number of sectors have been built into the framework. Designing
analyses with relational temperature-impact functions for a given
sector can improve comparability between analyses, yield results in a
framework that is more intuitive for communications purposes, and be
used to inform capabilities to

flexibly estimate impacts by sector for any desired scenario.

Paul Gunning,
Director, Climate Change Division.

Re: Follow up to you ph mssg: NAAQS Mtgs

Thanks for your e-mail Heidi.  I think the plan you lay out is fine.  I want to check with Karen about sharing  the current version of the ozone comments briefing with the interagency folks, as she wanted to take one more look at the detailed comments slides in the appendix.  Once she's done that, and we've made any amendments that are needed, which should be no later than Monday, you can share the whole briefing with the interagency folks.  We would be delighted if the reading the briefing is sufficient for them.   On the lead ANPR, I think we can meet on Monday Nov. 26 in Karen's absence as long as Deirdre Murphy is available.  I'll check with both Karen and Deirdre tomorrow and let you know.  Thanks Heidi.  Hope you have a good evening.

Follow up to you ph mssg: NAAQS Mtgs

Hi Lydia,

Thanks for your call.  Our thinking is the following:

O3:

1.  Interagency Briefing on O3 NAAQS Comments:  Before setting up an interagency call, I'd like to share the briefing slides with agency commenters.  The document is very well constructed and may suffice in lieu of an interagency conference call.  Does EPA approve sharing of the briefing with the involved agencies?

2.  Secondary O3 NAAQS Comments:  We'd like to review briefly as part of the meeting on Tues 11/20 @1pm

3. Tues 11/20 Agenda:  We propose the agenda be modified to include ~15 minute discussion of secondary NAAQS comments and ~45 minute follow up on all comments and/or points of discussion

Pb:

- We're doing our best to move forward quickly

- To discuss the Pb ANPRM, Margaret scheduled 30 min Tues 11/20 following our O3 conversation

- In case there's a need for an interagency call on the Pb package, I asked Margaret to hold Mon 11/26, although I understand Karen will be unavailable.  I don't want to delay further out of respect for EPA's timeline; what is your thinking around an interagency call without Karen vs delaying a day or two?

Thanks Lydia, have a good evening -

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-75888; File No. SR-NYSEArca-2015-74]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE Arca, Inc.; Notice of Filing
of Proposed Rule Regarding a Change to the Reference Index Relating to
the Market Vectors Short High Yield Municipal Index ETF

September 10, 2015.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (``Act'') \2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby given
that, on August 26, 2015, NYSE Arca, Inc. (``Exchange'' or ``NYSE
Arca'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and
II below, which Items have been prepared by the self-regulatory
organization. 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\ 15 U.S.C. 78a.
    \3\ 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 reflect a change to the reference index
relating to the Market Vectors Short High Yield Municipal Index ETF.
Shares of the Fund are currently listed and traded on the Exchange
under NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3). The text of the proposed rule
change is available on the Exchange's Web site at www.nyse.com, at the
principal office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public
Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization
included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the
proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of those 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 parts 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 Commission has approved listing and trading on the Exchange of
shares (``Shares'') of the Market Vectors Short High Yield Municipal
Index ETF (``Fund'') under NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), which
governs the listing and trading of Investment Company Units
(``Units'').\4\ Shares of the Fund are currently listed and traded on
the Exchange.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 71232 (January 3,
2014), 79 FR 1662 (January 9, 2014 (SR-NYSEArca-2013-118) (order
approving listing and trading of shares of the Market Vectors Short
High Yield Municipal Index ETF) (``Order''). See also, Securities
Exchange Act Release No. 70871 (November 14, 2013), 78 FR 69503
(November 19, 2013) (SR-NYSEArca-2013-118) (notice of proposed rule
change relating to listing and trading of shares of the Market
Vectors Short High Yield Municipal Index ETF) (``Notice'' and,
together with the Order, the ``Release'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Fund is a series of the Market Vectors ETF Trust. Van Eck
Associates Corporation is the investment adviser (``Adviser'') for the
Fund. Van Eck Securities Corporation is the Fund's distributor
(``Distributor''). Van Eck Associates Corporation also is the
administrator for the Fund (the ``Administrator''). The Bank of New
York Mellon is the custodian of the Fund's assets and provides transfer
agency and fund accounting services to the Fund.
    As described in the Release, the investment objective of the Fund
is to seek to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and
expenses, the price and yield performance of the Barclays Municipal
High Yield Short Duration Index (the ``Short High Yield Index'' or
``Index'').\5\ The Index is a market size weighted index composed of
publicly traded municipal bonds that cover the U.S. dollar denominated
high yield short-term tax-exempt bond market. The majority of the
Index's constituents are from the revenue sector, with some
constituents being from the general obligation sector. The revenue
sector is divided into industry sectors that

consist of but may not be limited to electric, health care,
transportation, education, water and sewer, resource recovery, leasing
and special tax. The Index is calculated using a market value weighting
methodology, provided the allocation to issuers from the territories of
the United States, including: Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin
Islands, American Samoa and the Northern Mariana Islands, each
individually does not exceed 8%. The market value of each bond over the
limit is adjusted on a pro-rata basis.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ As described in the Release, the Exchange submitted a
proposed rule change to permit listing and trading of Shares of the
Fund because the Index did not meet all of the ``generic'' listing
requirements of Commentary .02(a) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule
5.2(j)(3) applicable to the listing of Units based on fixed income
securities indexes. The Index met all such requirements except for
those set forth in Commentary .02(a)(2). Commentary .02(a)(2) to
NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) provides that components that in
the aggregate account for at least 75% of the weight of the index or
portfolio each shall have a minimum original principal amount
outstanding of $100 million or more.
    \6\ The Index is published by Barclays Capital, Inc. (``Index
Provider''). The Index Provider is a registered broker-dealer and
has implemented a fire wall with respect to its relevant personnel
regarding access to information concerning the composition and/or
changes to the Index. In addition, the Index Provider is affiliated
with a broker-dealer and has implemented a fire wall with respect to
its broker-dealer affiliate regarding access to information
concerning the composition and/or changes to the Index. The Index
Provider and its broker-dealer affiliate have implemented procedures
designed to prevent the use and dissemination of material, non-
public information regarding the Index.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Index Provider is proposing to slightly revise the Index
methodology as described in the Release as follows. The revised Short
High-Yield Index (``Revised Index'') will have a targeted 40% weight in
the Muni High Yield/$100 Million Deal Size Index (reduced from 50%
weight). In addition, the Revised Index will have a 10% weight in the
Muni A-Rated Index, which is comprised of investment grade components,
as described below. The Revised Index will continue to have a 25%
weight in the Muni High Yield/Under $100 Million Deal Size Index and a
25% weight in the Muni Baa-Rated/$100 Million Deal Size Index, as
described in the Release.
    The Revised Index will be comprised of four total return, market
size weighted benchmark indexes with target weights as follows:
     40% weight in Muni High Yield/$100 Million Deal Size
Index. To be included in the Muni High Yield/$100 Million Deal Size
Index, bonds must be unrated or rated Ba1/BB+ or lower by at least two
of the following rating agencies if all three rate the bond: Moody's
Investors Service, Inc. (``Moody's''), Standard & Poor's, Inc.
(``S&P'') and Fitch, Inc. (``Fitch''). If only two of the three
agencies rate the security, the lower rating is used to determine index
eligibility. If only one of the three agencies rates a security, the
rating must be Ba1/BB+ or lower. Bonds in the Muni High Yield/$100
Million Deal Size Index must have an outstanding par value of at least
$3 million and be issued as part of a transaction of at least $100
million.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ As described in the Release, currently 50% of the Index
weight is in the Muni High Yield/$100 Million Deal Size Index.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     25% weight in Muni High Yield/Under $100 Million Deal Size
Index. To be included in the Muni High Yield/Under $100 Million Deal
Size Index, bonds must be unrated or rated Ba1/BB+ or lower by at least
two of the following rating agencies if all three rate the bond:
Moody's, S&P and Fitch. If only two of the three agencies rate the
security, the lower rating is used to determine index eligibility. If
only one of the three agencies rates a security, the rating must be
Ba1/BB+ or lower. Bonds in the Muni High Yield/Under $100 Million Deal
Size Index must have an outstanding par value of at least $3 million
and be issued as part of a transaction of under $100 million but over
$20 million.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ The 25% weighting in the Muni High Yield/Under $100 Million
Deal Size Index is identical to such weighting as set forth in the
Release.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     25% weight in Muni Baa-Rated/$100 Million Deal Size Index.
To be included in the Muni Baa-Rated/$100 Million Deal Size Index,
bonds must have a Barclays credit quality classification between Baa1/
BBB+ and Baa3/BBB-. Barclays credit quality classification is based on
the three rating agencies, Moody's, S&P and Fitch. If two of the three
agencies rate the bond equivalently, then that rating is used. If all
three rate the bond differently, the middle rating is used. If only two
of the three agencies rate the security, the lower rating is used to
determine index eligibility. If only one of the three agencies rates a
security, the rating must be Baa1/BBB+, Baa2/BBB, or Baa3/BBB-. The
bonds must have an outstanding par value of at least $7 million and be
issued as part of a transaction of at least $100 million.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The 25% weighting in the Muni Baa-Rated/$100 Million Deal
Size Index is identical to such weighting as set forth in the
Release.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     10% weight in Muni A-Rated Index. To be included in the
Muni A-Rated Index, bonds must have a Barclays credit quality
classification between A1/A+ and A3/A-. The Barclays credit quality
classification is based on the three rating agencies, Moody's, S&P and
Fitch. If two of the three agencies rate the bond equivalently, then
that rating is used. If all three rate the bond differently, the middle
rating is used. If only two of the three agencies rate the security,
the lower rating is used to determine index eligibility. If only one of
the three agencies rates a security, the rating must be A1/A+, A2/A, or
A3/A-. The bonds must have an outstanding par value of at least $7
million and be issued as part of a transaction of at least $75 million.
    Remarketed issues are not allowed in the benchmark. All bonds must
have a fixed rate, a dated-date (i.e., the date when interest begins to
accrue) after December 31, 1990 and a nominal maturity of 1 to 12
years. Taxable municipal bonds, bonds with floating rates and
derivatives are excluded from the Short High-Yield Index.
    The composition of the Revised Index will be rebalanced monthly.
Interest and principal payments earned by the component securities will
be held in the Revised Index without a reinvestment return until month
end when they are removed from the Revised Index.
    Total returns will be calculated based on the sum of price changes,
gain/loss on repayments of principal, and coupons received or accrued,
expressed as a percentage of beginning market value. The Revised Index
will be calculated and will be available once a day.
    The Exchange is submitting this proposed rule change because the
Revised Index does not meet all of the ``generic'' listing requirements
of Commentary .02(a) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3) applicable to
the listing of Units based on fixed income securities indexes. The
Revised Index meets all such requirements except for those set forth in
Commentary .02(a)(2).\10\ Specifically, as of June 30, 2015, 30.10% of
the weight of the Revised Index components have a minimum original
principal amount outstanding of $100 million or more.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ Commentary .02(a)(2) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3)
provides that components that in the aggregate account for at least
75% of the weight of the index or portfolio each shall have a
minimum original principal amount outstanding of $100 million or
more.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As of June 30, 2015, 69.73% of the weight of the Revised Index
components was composed of individual maturities that were part of an
entire municipal bond offering with a minimum original principal amount
outstanding of $100 million or more for all maturities of the offering.
In addition, the total dollar amount outstanding of issues in the
Revised Index was approximately $224.6 billion and the average dollar
amount outstanding of issues in the Index was approximately $23.7
million. Further, the most heavily weighted component represents 2.44%
of the weight of the Revised Index and the five most heavily weighted
components represent 9.47% of the weight of the Revised Index.\11\
Therefore, the

Exchange believes that, notwithstanding that the Index does not satisfy
the criterion in NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), Commentary
.02(a)(2), the Revised Index is sufficiently broad-based to deter
potential manipulation, given that it is composed of approximately
9,481 issues and 900 unique issuers. In addition, the Revised Index
securities are sufficiently liquid to deter potential manipulation in
that a substantial portion (69.73%) of the Revised Index weight is
composed of maturities that are part of a minimum original principal
amount outstanding of $100 million or more, and in view of the
substantial total dollar amount outstanding and the average dollar
amount outstanding of Revised Index issues, as referenced above.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ Commentary .02(a)(4) to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3)
provides that no component fixed-income security (excluding Treasury
Securities and GSE Securities, as defined therein) shall represent
more than 30% of the weight of the index or portfolio, and the five
most heavily weighted component fixed-income securities in the index
or portfolio shall not in the aggregate account for more than 65% of
the weight of the index or portfolio.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, the average daily notional trading volume for Revised
Index components for the period from June 30, 2014 to June 30, 2015 was
approximately $323.6 million and the sum of the notional trading
volumes for the same period was $82.2 billion.
    The Revised Index value, calculated and disseminated at least once
daily, as well as the components of the Revised Index and their
percentage weighting, will be available from major market data vendors.
In addition, the portfolio of securities held by the Fund will be
disclosed daily on the Fund's Web site at www.marketvectorsetfs.com.
    The Exchange represents that: (1) except for Commentary .02(a)(2)
to NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), the Shares of the Fund currently
satisfy all of the generic listing standards under NYSE Arca Equities
Rule 5.2(j)(3); (2) the continued listing standards under NYSE Arca
Equities Rules 5.2(j)(3) and 5.5(g)(2) applicable to Units shall apply
to the Shares; and (3) the Trust is required to comply with Rule 10A-3
under the Act \12\ for the initial and continued listing of the Shares.
In addition, the Exchange represents that the Shares will comply with
all other requirements applicable to Units including, but not limited
to, requirements relating to the dissemination of key information such
as the value of the Index and the applicable Intraday Indicative Value
(``IIV''),\13\ rules governing the trading of equity securities,
trading hours, trading halts, surveillance, and the Information
Bulletin to Equity Trading Permit Holders (``ETP Holders''), as set
forth in Exchange rules applicable to Units and prior Commission orders
approving the generic listing rules applicable to the listing and
trading of Units.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 17 CFR 240.10A-3.
    \13\ The IIV will be widely disseminated by one or more major
market data vendors at least every 15 seconds during the Exchange's
Core Trading Session of 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Eastern time.
Currently, it is the Exchange's understanding that several major
market data vendors display and/or make widely available IIVs taken
from the Consolidated Tape Association (``CTA'') or other data
feeds.
    \14\ See, e.g., Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 55783 (May
17, 2007), 72 FR 29194 (May 24, 2007) (SR-NYSEArca-2007-36) (order
approving NYSE Arca generic listing standards for Units based on a
fixed income index); 44551 (July 12, 2001), 66 FR 37716 (July 19,
2001) (SR-PCX-2001-14) (order approving generic listing standards
for Units and Portfolio Depositary Receipts); 41983 (October 6,
1999), 64 FR 56008 (October 15, 1999) (SR-PCX-98-29) (order
approving rules for listing and trading of Units).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The current value of the Revised Index will be widely disseminated
by one or more major market data vendors at least once per day, as
required by NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), Commentary .02 (b)(ii).
The IIV for Shares of the Fund will be disseminated by one or more
major market data vendors, updated at least every 15 seconds during the
Exchange's Core Trading Session, as required by NYSE Arca Equities Rule
5.2(j)(3), Commentary .02 (c).
    The Adviser represents that there is no change to the Fund's
investment objective. The Fund will continue to comply with all initial
and continued listing requirements under NYSE Arca Equities Rule
5.2(j)(3).
    Except for the changes noted above, all other facts presented and
representations made in the Release remain unchanged.
    All terms referenced but not defined herein are defined in the
Release.
2. Statutory Basis
    The basis under the Act for this proposed rule change is the
requirement under Section 6(b)(5) \15\ that an exchange have rules that
are designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices,
to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to remove
impediments to, and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market
and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is designed to
prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, and is designed
to promote just and equitable principles of trade and to protect
investors and the public interest, in that the Adviser represents that
there is no change to the Fund's investment objective. Under the
revised Index methodology, there will be a 40% weight in the Muni High
Yield/$100 Million Deal Size Index (reduced from 50% weight). In
addition, the Revised Index will have a 10% weight in the Muni A-Rated
Index, which is comprised of investment grade components. The Revised
Index will continue to have a 25% weight in the Muni High Yield/Under
$100 Million Deal Size Index and a 25% weight in the Muni Baa-Rated/
$100 Million Deal Size Index, as described in the Release. Therefore,
the benchmark indexes would include a higher overall percentage in
investment grade and, specifically, higher rated investment grade
municipal issues, than under the current Index methodology. The
Exchange believes that, as with the current Index, the Revised Index
will be sufficiently broad-based to deter potential manipulation, and
the Revised Index components will be sufficiently liquid to deter
potential manipulation in that a substantial portion (69.73%) of the
Revised Index weight will be composed of maturities that are part of a
minimum original principal amount outstanding of $100 million or more.
In addition, because 90% of the Revised Index weight will consist of
the same benchmark index weightings as described in the Release, there
will continue to be substantial total dollar amount outstanding and
average dollar amount outstanding of Revised Index issues. As with the
current Index, the Revised Index value, calculated and disseminated at
least once daily, as well as the components of the Revised Index and
their respective percentage weightings, will be available from major
market data vendors. In addition, the portfolio of securities held by
the Fund will be disclosed on the Fund's Web site. The IIV for Shares
of the Fund will be disseminated by one or more major market data
vendors, updated at least every 15 seconds during the Exchange's Core
Trading Session.
    The proposed rule change is designed to perfect the mechanism of a
free and open market and, in general, to protect investors and the
public interest in that the Fund will continue to comply with all
initial and continued listing requirements under NYSE Arca Equities
Rule 5.2(j)(3). As noted above, the Revised Index meets all such
requirements except for those set forth in Commentary .02(a)(2).\16\
Specifically, as of as of June 30, 2015, 30.10% of the weight of the
Revised Index components have a minimum original principal amount
outstanding of $100 million or more. In addition, the total dollar

amount outstanding of issues in the Revised Index was approximately
$224.6 billion and the average dollar amount outstanding of issues in
the Index was approximately $23.7 million. Further, the most heavily
weighted component represents 2.44% of the weight of the Revised Index
and the five most heavily weighted components represent 9.47% of the
weight of the Revised Index.\17\ Therefore, the Exchange believes that,
notwithstanding that the Index does not satisfy the criterion in NYSE
Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), Commentary .02(a)(2), the Revised Index
is sufficiently broad-based to deter potential manipulation, given that
it is composed of approximately 9,481issues and 900 unique issuers. In
addition, the Revised Index securities are sufficiently liquid to deter
potential manipulation in that a substantial portion (69.73%) of the
Revised Index weight is composed of maturities that are part of a
minimum original principal amount outstanding of $100 million or more,
and in view of the substantial total dollar amount outstanding and the
average dollar amount outstanding of Revised Index issues, as
referenced above.

    In addition, the average daily notional trading volume for Revised
Index components for the period from June 30, 2014 to June 30, 2015 was
approximately $323.6 million and the sum of the notional trading
volumes for the same period was $82.2 billion.
    The Revised Index value, calculated and disseminated at least once
daily, as well as the components of the Revised Index and their
percentage weighting, will be available from major market data vendors.
In addition, the portfolio of securities held by the Fund will be
disclosed daily on the Fund's Web site at www.marketvectorsetfs.com.
    The Adviser represents that there is no change to the Fund's
investment objective. Except for the changes noted above, all other
representations made in the Release remain unchanged.

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 changes will
accommodate continued listing and trading of an issue of Managed Fund
