    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on July 1, 2009, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated
(the ``Exchange'' or ``CBOE'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described
in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the
Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments
on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend its CBOE Stock Exchange (``CBSX'')
Fees Schedule to establish a new transaction fee for the stock
component of a stock-option trade. The text of the proposed rule change
is available on the Exchange's Web site (http://www.cboe.org/legal), 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 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
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    CBSX is increasingly processing more stock trades that are the
stock component of stock option transactions. CBOE now intends to
establish a fee for the execution of the stock portion of a stock
option transaction in which the stock is crossed using any of the cross
order types outlined in CBSX Rule 51.8 (Types of Orders Handled). The
proposed fee is $0.0025 per share subject to a $1 per trade minimum and
a $50 per trade maximum.
2. Statutory Basis
    The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act''),\3\ in general, and furthers
the objectives of Section 6(b)(4) \4\ of the Act in particular, in that
it is designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable
dues, fees, and other charges among CBOE members and other persons
using its facilities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).

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

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

    CBOE does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of
the purposes of the Act.

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

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

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

    The proposed rule change is designated by the Exchange as
establishing or changing a due, fee, or other charge, thereby
qualifying for effectiveness on filing pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(ii) \5\ of the Act and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-4
\6\ thereunder.

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

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission may summarily abrogate 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.

[Project No. 2997-031]

South Sutter Water District; Notice of Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Assessment

    On July 1, 2019, South Sutter Water District filed an application
for a major, new license for the 6.8-megawatt Camp Far West
Hydroelectric Project (Camp Far West Project; FERC No. 2997). The Camp
Far West Project is located on the Bear River in Yuba, Nevada, and
Placer Counties, California. No federal or tribal lands occur within or
adjacent to the project boundary or along the Bear River downstream of
the project.
    In accordance with the Commission's regulations, on March 16, 2021,
Commission staff issued a notice that the project was ready for
environmental analysis (REA Notice). Based on the information in the
record, including comments filed on the REA Notice, staff does not
anticipate that licensing the project would constitute a major federal
action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
Therefore, staff intends to prepare a draft and final Environmental
Assessment (EA) on the

application to relicense the Camp Far West Project.
    The EA will be issued and circulated for review by all interested
parties. All comments filed on the EA will be analyzed by staff and
considered in the Commission's final licensing decision.
    The application will be processed according to the following
schedule. Revisions to the schedule may be made as appropriate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The Council on Environmental Quality's (CEQ) regulations
under 40 CFR 1501.10(b)(1) require that EAs be completed within 1
year of the federal action agency's decision to prepare an EA. This
notice establishes the Commission's intent to prepare a draft and
final EA for the Camp Far West Project. Therefore, in accordance
with CEQ's regulations, the final EA must be issued within 1 year of
the issuance date of this notice.

Commission's maximum rate cap on released capacity, and (iii) the
Commission's policy prohibiting the ``permanent'' release of a
temporary capacity release transaction, and (iv) the applicable
capacity release tariff provisions of CEGT and Kern River. The
requested waivers will enable the petitioners to effectuate the
permanent transfer of one of DEMA's portfolios of Commission-regulated
transportation capacity and associated upstream Canadian pipeline
capacity DEMA's Prearranged Replacement Shippers or to some other
third-party replacement shipper who may prevail in the capacity release
bidding process.

Coast Guard

[Docket No. USCG-2008-0991]

Proposed Modernization of the Coast Guard; Final Programmatic
Environmental Assessment

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of Availability of Final Programmatic Environmental
Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard announces the availability of the Final
Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) for Coast Guard
modernization. Based on the PEA's analysis and the mitigation plan
committed to in the PEA, the Coast Guard determined that an
environmental impact statement is not required, and a Finding of No
Significant Impact (FONSI) has been issued for the proposed action.
    Availability: Electronic copies of the Final PEA and FONSI, as well
as comments received on the Draft PEA and FONSI, are available from the
Federal Docket Management Facility at Internet Web site address: http:/
/www.regulations.gov using the docket number USCG-2008-0991.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions on this notice,
please contact Ms. Kebby Kelley, USCG, telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>, e-
mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or Mr. Frank Esposito, USCG, telephone
(202) 372-3746, e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>If you have
questions on viewing the docket, please call Ms. Renee Wright, Program
Manager, Docket Operations, telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as implemented by the Council on
Environmental Quality regulations (40 CFR parts 1500-1508), the Coast
Guard prepared a Final PEA and FONSI for the Proposed Modernization of
the Coast Guard.

Response to Comments

    On August 15, 2008, the Coast Guard initiated a 30-day public
comment period with publication of a Notice of Availability of the
Proposed Modernization of the Coast Guard Draft PEA in the Federal
Register (73 FR 47959). The Coast Guard received 23 public comments
during this period.

Summary of Comments and the USCG Responses

    Many of the 23 separate comments either acknowledged receipt or
noted approval of the Coast Guard's modernization proposal. The
remaining comments fell into the following four groups.
    Several comments focused on the managerial philosophy and
motivation of the Coast Guard in proposing this modernization. While
these comments are useful to decision makers, they are not relevant to
the environmental impact analyses associated with the proposed
modernization and, therefore, will not be addressed in the Final PEA.
    A second group of comments focused on decisions that are yet to be
made, such as exact locations of possible new facilities or precise
organizations that might or might not be moved. While these comments
are also useful to decision makers, they are not yet ripe for further
analysis and will not be considered further in the Final PEA. As stated
in the Draft PEA, NEPA analysis and documentation may be prepared for
future individual actions and their site-specific impacts if such
actions are not adequately covered by this programmatic NEPA document.
    The third group of comments advocated moving large segments of the
Coast Guard to various new locations around the nation. These
alternatives do not meet the purpose and need described in the PEA to
minimize disruption to the workforce, minimize costs of modernization
(such as, by utilizing existing facilities), and minimize disruption to
mission execution. These proposals are, therefore, not evaluated in
detail in the Final PEA.
    Finally, a fourth group of comments was not addressed because it
raised matters, such as the Deepwater Replacement contract, that are
outside the scope of the Coast Guard modernization decision.

Background and Purpose

    The Coast Guard intends to modernize its command structure, support
systems, and business practices to position itself for sustainable and
effective mission execution into the

twenty-first century. The Coast Guard prepared a PEA that identified
and examined the reasonable alternatives and assessed their potential
environmental impacts. The PEA identified potential direct, indirect,
and cumulative impacts associated with proposed modernization,
including Coast Guard mission-related impacts and site-specific
impacts.
    The Coast Guard developed two action alternatives to achieve
modernization, a full modernization alternative and a partial
modernization alternative. These two alternatives represented the upper
and lower levels of change required to achieve the purpose and need of
the modernization and, therefore, captured the range of social,
economic, and environmental impacts that would occur while implementing
modernization initiatives. The full modernization alternative
emphasizes co-location of mission support and operations resources and
functions and included potential construction at the Coast Guard Yard,
Curtis Bay, Maryland. The partial modernization alternative would focus
on operating from existing locations rather than co-locating functional
resources in a single location and includes no new construction. The
partial modernization alternative would minimally achieve the purpose
and need for modernization, while the full modernization alternative
would allow the Coast Guard to reach the fully envisioned functionality
of modernization. The Coast Guard prefers the full modernization
alternative. Either modernization alternative would be implemented over
at least 5 years.
    The Coast Guard has determined that the mitigation committed to in
the Final Coast Guard-prepared PEA will reduce all potentially
significant environmental impacts to a level of insignificance. Thus,
the Final PEA was determined to adequately and accurately discuss the
environmental issues and impacts of the proposed action and provides
sufficient evidence and analysis for determining that an environmental
impact statement is not required. A Finding of No Significant Impact
was, therefore, issued for the full modernization alternative which is
the Coast Guard's preferred alternative.

Vice Admiral, U.S. Coast Guard, Chief of Staff.
