[Docket No. FAA-2011-0565; Directorate Identifier 2010-NM-280-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-215-1A10, CL-
215-6B11 (CL-215T Variant), and CL-215-6B11 (CL-415 Variant) Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the
products listed above. This proposed AD results from mandatory
continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation
authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe
condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe
condition as:

    The emergency water dump pulley support bracket assembly, Part
Number (P/N) 215-94711-2, has been found cracked or broken on a
number of aeroplanes. Failure of the emergency water dump pulley
support bracket assembly in combination with other system failures
such as an engine failure during take off or pitch control system
jam, may result in a loss of control of the aeroplane.
* * * * *

    The proposed AD would require actions that are intended to address
the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.

Discussion

    Transport Canada Civil Aviation, which is the aviation authority
for Canada, has issued Canadian Airworthiness Directive CF-2010-38R2,
dated March 17, 2011 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to
correct an unsafe condition for the specified products. The MCAI
states:

    The emergency water dump pulley support bracket assembly, Part
Number (P/N) 215-94711-2, has been found cracked or broken on a
number of aeroplanes. Failure of the emergency water dump pulley
support bracket assembly in combination with other system failures
such as an engine failure during take off or pitch control system
jam, may result in a loss of control of the aeroplane.
    Revision 2 of this AD is issued to ensure that terminating
action for this AD is carried out prior to the 2011 fire season.

    The required actions include a general visual inspection to
determine if either universal solid (round head) rivets or flush rivets
of the bracket assembly of the emergency water dump pulley are
installed; replacing the solid rivets with flush rivets and installing
new stiffeners on the bracket assembly of the emergency water dump
pulley, if necessary; a detailed inspection and a liquid penetrant
inspection of the stiffeners for cracks, deformations, or signs of
corrosion, and replacing the stiffeners with new stiffeners if
necessary; and re-installing the bracket assembly of the emergency
water dump pulley using radius packers. You may obtain further
information by examining the MCAI in the AD docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Bombardier, Inc. has issued Service Bulletin 215-A543, Revision 1,
dated June 23, 2010; and Service Bulletin 215-A4424, Revision 2, dated
June 23, 2010. The actions described in this service information are
intended to correct the unsafe condition identified in the MCAI.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    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.

Differences Between This AD and the MCAI or Service Information

    We have reviewed the MCAI and related service information and, in
general, agree with their substance. But we might have found it
necessary to use different words from those in the MCAI to ensure the
AD is clear for U.S. operators and is enforceable. In making these
changes, we do not intend to differ substantively from the information
provided in the MCAI and related service information.
    We might also have proposed different actions in this AD from those
in the MCAI in order to follow FAA policies. Any such differences are
highlighted in a Note within the proposed AD.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 6 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that
it would take about 40 work-hours per product to comply with the basic
requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per
work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the proposed
AD on U.S. operators to be $20,400, or $3,400 per product.
    We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide
a cost estimate for the on-condition actions specified in this AD.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We 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); and
    3. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

FAA AD Differences

    Note 1:  This AD differs from the MCAI and/or service
information as follows:
    (1) Although Canadian Airworthiness Directive CF-2010-38R2,
dated March 17, 2011, has a compliance time of ``No later than 01
June 2011,'' for Part II--Terminating Action, this AD has a
compliance time of ``Within 100 flight cycles or 60 days after the
effective date of this AD, whichever occurs first.'' We have
coordinated this difference with Transport Canada Civil Aviation
(TCCA).
    (2) Although Canadian Airworthiness Directive CF-2010-38R2,
dated March 17, 2011, has an initial compliance time of ``within 50
flight cycles after the effective date of this AD'' for identifying
the type of rivet installed, this AD has a compliance time of
``within 50 flight cycles or 30 days after the effective date of
this AD, whichever occurs first.'' In addition, the follow-on
inspections in paragraph (i) of this AD for airplanes on which flush
rivets are determined to be installed, is ``within 100 flight cycles
or 60 days after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs
first.'' We have coordinated this difference with TCCA.

Other FAA AD Provisions

    (l) The following provisions also apply to this AD:
    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager, New
York Aircraft Certification Office, ANE-170, 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 ACO, send it to ATTN: Program Manager, Continuing Operational
Safety, FAA, New York ACO, 1600 Stewart Avenue, Suite 410, Westbury,
New York 11590; telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax<PHONE_NUMBER>. 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. The AMOC approval letter must specifically reference this
AD.
    (2) Airworthy Product: For any requirement in this AD to obtain
corrective actions from a manufacturer or other source, use these
actions if they are FAA-approved. Corrective actions are considered
FAA-approved if they are approved by the State of Design Authority
(or their delegated agent). You are required to assure the product
is airworthy before it is returned to service.

Background

    The primary goal of this proposed AC revision is to clarify FAA
policy, facilitate achievement of an ASAP's safety goals, and encourage
wider participation in the program. The objective of an ASAP is to
encourage employees of certificate holders or other operators to
voluntarily report safety information that may be critical to
identifying potential precursors to accidents. The FAA has determined
that identifying these precursors is essential to further reducing the
already low accident rate. The ASAP provides for the collection,
analysis, and retention of the safety data that is obtained through the
reporting process. ASAP participants use ASAP safety data, much of
which would otherwise be unobtainable, to develop corrective actions
for identified safety concerns, and to educate the appropriate parties
to prevent a recurrence of the same type of safety event.
    The agency will consider all comments received by November 4, 2014.
Comments received after that date may be considered if consideration
will not delay agency action on the review. A copy of the advisory
circular is available for review at http://www.faa.gov/aircraft/
draftdocs/afs ac/.

Tennessee. East Tennessee states that the Project involves: (i)
Approximately 10 miles of new 12-inch diameter pipeline; (ii) a new
meter facility; and (iii) appurtenances. East Tennessee estimates the
cost of the Project to be approximately $53.1 million, all as more
fully set forth in the application which is on file with the Commission
and open to public inspection. The filing is available for review at
the Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the
Commission's Web site web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary''
link. Enter the docket number excluding the last three digits in the
docket number field to access the document. For assistance, contact
FERC at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or call toll-free,<PHONE_NUMBER> or

    Any questions concerning this application may be directed to Lisa
A. Connolly, General Manager Rates and Certificates, East Tennessee
Natural Gas, LLC, P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251-1642, by
telephone at<PHONE_NUMBER>, or by email at
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules (18 CFR 157.9),
within 90 days of this Notice, the Commission staff will either:
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the EA for this proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's
public record for this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and
state agencies of the timing for the completion of all necessary
reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit seven copies of filings made in the proceeding with the
Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other
party. Only parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of
Commission orders in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenters will be
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission's environmental review process.
Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenters will
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court
review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should
submit an original and seven copies of the protest or intervention to
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE.,
Washington, DC 20426.
    Comment Date: 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on March 23, 2015.

Proposed Rules

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2012-0807; Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-191-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Airbus Model A318-111 and -112 airplanes, and Model A319, A320, and
A321 series airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of
silicon particles inside the oxygen generator manifolds, which had
chafed from the mask hoses during installation onto the generator
outlets. This proposed AD would require identifying the part number and
serial number of each passenger oxygen container, replacing the oxygen
generator manifold of the affected oxygen container with a serviceable
manifold, and performing an operational check of the manual mask
release and corrective actions if necessary. We are proposing this AD
to detect and correct non-serviceable oxygen generator manifolds, which
could reduce or block the oxygen supply, which could result in injury
to passengers when oxygen supply is needed.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by October 1, 2012.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments by any of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments.

Discussion

    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2011-0167, dated September 6, 2011 (referred to
after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

During production of passenger oxygen containers, the manufacturer
B/E Aerospace detected some silicon particles inside the oxygen
generator manifolds. Investigation revealed that those particles
(chips) had chafed from the mask hoses during installation onto the
generator outlets. It was discovered that a defective mask hose
installation device had caused the chafing.

This condition, if not detected and corrected, could reduce or block
the oxygen supply, possibly resulting in injury to passengers when
oxygen supply is needed.

For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires the
identification and modification of the affected oxygen container
assemblies. This AD also prohibits the installation of the affected
containers on any aeroplane as replacement parts.

Required actions also include replacing the oxygen generator manifold
of the affected oxygen container with a serviceable manifold, and doing
an operational check of the manual mask release and corrective actions
if necessary. You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI
in the AD docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Airbus has issued Service Bulletin A320-35A1047, dated March 29,
2011. B/E AEROSPACE has issued Service Bulletin 1XCXX-0100-35-005,
Revision 1, dated December 15, 2012; and 22CXX-0100-35-003, Revision 1,
dated December 20, 2011. The actions described in this service
information are

intended to correct the unsafe condition identified in the MCAI.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    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.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 220 airplanes of U.S. registry. We also estimate
that it would take about 3 work-hours per oxygen container to comply
with the basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average number of
oxygen containers per airplane is 50. The average labor rate is $85 per
work-hour. Required parts would cost about $0 per product. Where the
service information lists required parts costs that are covered under
warranty, we have assumed that there will be no charge for these parts.
As we do not control warranty coverage for affected parties, some
parties may incur costs higher than estimated here. Based on these
figures, we estimate the cost of the proposed AD on U.S. operators to
be $2,805,000, or $12,750 per airplane.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

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

    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]

    2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new AD:

Airbus: Docket No. FAA-2012-0807; Direc- torate Identifier 2011-NM-
191-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    We must receive comments by October 1, 2012.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to Airbus Model A318-111 and -112 airplanes;
A319-111, -112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132, and -133 airplanes;
A320-111, -211, -212, -214, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes; A321-
111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, -231, and -232 airplanes;
certificated in any category; all manufacturer serial numbers (MSN).

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 35: Oxygen.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by reports of silicon particles inside the
oxygen generator manifolds, which had chafed from the mask hoses
during installation onto the generator outlets. We are issuing this
AD to detect and correct non-serviceable oxygen generator manifolds,
which could reduce or block the oxygen supply, which could result in
injury to passengers when oxygen supply is needed.

(f) Compliance

    You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD
performed within the compliance times specified, unless the actions
have already been done.

(g) Part Number and Serial Number Identification

    Within 4,500 flight cycles, or 6,000 flight hours, or 20 months,
whichever occurs first, after the effective date of this AD,
identify the part number and serial number of each passenger oxygen
container. A review of airplane maintenance records is acceptable in
lieu of this identification if the part number and serial number of
the oxygen container can be conclusively determined from that
review.

(h) Replacement

    If the part number and serial number of the container are listed
in table 2 and table 1 of this AD: Within the compliance time
specified in paragraph (g) of this AD, replace the oxygen generator
manifold of the affected oxygen container with a serviceable
manifold and do an operational check of the manual mask release, in
accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service
Bulletin A320-35A1047, dated March 29, 2011, except as provided by
paragraphs (i)(1) through (i)(4) of this AD. If the operational
check fails, before further flight, repair, using a method approved
by either the Manager, International Branch, ANM 116, Transport
Airplane Directorate, FAA; or the European Aviation Safety Agency
(or its delegated agent).

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-59335; File No. SR-FINRA-2008-061]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, Inc.; Order Approving Proposed Rule Change To Adopt FINRA
Rule 5240 (Anti-Intimidation/Coordination) in the Consolidated FINRA
Rulebook

February 2, 2009.
    On December 11, 2008, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority,
Inc. (``FINRA'') (f/k/a National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. (``NASD'')), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'' or ``SEC''), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4
thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to adopt NASD IM-2110-5 as FINRA
Rule 5240 in the consolidated FINRA rulebook (``Consolidated FINRA
Rulebook'') \3\ without material change. The proposed rule change was
published for comment in the Federal Register on December 29, 2008.\4\
The Commission received no comment letters in response to the proposed
rule change. This order approves the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ The current FINRA rulebook consists of two sets of rules:
(1) NASD Rules and (2) rules incorporated from NYSE (``Incorporated
NYSE Rules'') (together referred to as the ``Transitional
Rulebook''). The Incorporated NYSE Rules apply only to those members
of FINRA that are also members of the NYSE (``Dual Members''). Dual
members must also comply with NASD Rules. For more information about
the rulebook consolidation process, see FINRA Information Notice,
March 12, 2008 (``Rulebook Consolidation Process'').
    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59119 (December 18,
2008), 73 FR 79527.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NASD IM-2110-5 currently identifies three general types of conduct
that are inconsistent with just and equitable principles of trade: \5\
(1) Coordinating activities by members involving quotations, prices,
trades, and trade reporting (e.g., agreements to report trades
inaccurately or maintain certain minimum spreads); (2) ``directing or
requesting'' another member to alter prices or quotations; and (3)
engaging in conduct that threatens, harasses, coerces, intimidates, or
otherwise attempts improperly to influence another member or person
associated with a member. The IM also sets forth seven specific
exclusions that identify bona fide commercial activity that is
permitted (e.g., bona fide negotiations and unilateral decisions
regarding spreads). The proposed rule change would renumber NASD IM-
2110-5 as FINRA Rule 5240 in the Consolidated FINRA Rulebook.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ NASD Rule 2110 requires members to ``observe high standards
of commercial honor and just and equitable principles of trade.'' On
September 25, 2008, the Commission approved adopting NASD Rule 2110
into the Consolidated FINRA Rulebook as FINRA Rule 2010 without
substantive change. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58643
(September 25, 2008), 73 FR 57174 (October 1, 2008). That rule
change took effect on December 15, 2008. See FINRA Regulatory Notice
08-57 (October 2008).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed rule
change is consistent with the requirements of the Act, and the rules
and regulations thereunder that are applicable to a national securities
association,\6\ and in particular, with Section 15A(b)(6) of the
Act,\7\ which requires, among other things, that FINRA rules be
designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to
promote just and equitable principles of trade, and, in general, to
protect investors and the public interest. The Commission notes that
FINRA originally adopted NASD IM-2110-5 to fulfill part of its 1996
settlement agreement \8\ with the SEC.\9\ FINRA's adoption of NASD IM-
2110-5 as FINRA Rule 5240 in the Consolidated FINRA Rulebook provides
notice to members of behavior that violates just and equitable
principles of trade.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ In approving this proposal, the Commission has considered
the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition and capital
formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(6).
    \8\ See In the Matter of National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc., Administrative Proceeding File No. 3-9056, Securities
Exchange Act Release No. 37538 (August 8, 1996).
    \9\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 38845 (July 17,
1997), 62 FR 39564 (July 23, 1997). Although FINRA is not making
material changes to the rule, one of the minor changes made by FINRA
is to add the phrase ``or other person'' to paragraphs (a)(1) and
(a)(3) of the rule to clarify that coordination with or intimidation
of a non-FINRA member is covered by the rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\10\ that the proposed rule change (SR-FINRA-2008-061) be, and
hereby is, approved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).

    For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets,
pursuant to delegated authority.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 17 CFR 200.30-3(a)(12).

Deputy Secretary.

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

    This proposal is to amend New York Stock Exchange Rule 409
(Statements of Accounts to Customers) to delete the requirement that
certain confirmations and reports include the name of the securities
market on which a transaction is effected. The proposed rule change
conforms NYSE's version of NYSE Rule 409 to proposed amendments filed
by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (``FINRA'') to its
version of NYSE Rule 409. Below is the text of the proposed rule
change. Proposed new language is in italics; proposed deletions are in
brackets.
* * * * *

Rule 409. Statements of Accounts to Customers

    (a) through (e) No change.
    (f) Confirmation of all transactions (including those made ``over-
the-counter'' and on other exchanges) in securities admitted to
dealings on the Exchange, sent by members or member organizations to
their customers, shall [indicate]clearly set forth with a suitable
legend the settlement date of each transaction[ and bear the name of
the securities market on which the transaction was made]. This
requirement also applies to confirmations or reports from an
organization to a correspondent, but does not apply to reports made by
floor brokers to the member organization from whom the orders were
received.
    [All confirmations shall contain a suitable legend clearly setting
forth all required information.]
    (g) No change.

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 these statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The self-regulatory organization
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
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    On July 30, 2007, NASD and NYSE Regulation, Inc. consolidated their
member firm regulation operations into a combined organization,
FINRA.\5\ Pursuant to FINRA's new regulatory responsibilities, FINRA
amended FINRA's NYSE Rule 409 to delete the requirement that certain
confirmations and reports include the name of the securities market on
which a transaction is effected. The NYSE is proposing to amend its
version of NYSE Rule 409 to conform to FINRA's NYSE Rule 409.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Pursuant to Rule 17d-2 under the Exchange Act, NYSE, NYSE
Regulation, Inc., and NASD entered into an agreement (the
``Agreement'') to reduce regulatory duplication for firms that are
members of FINRA and also members of NYSE on or after July 30, 2007
(``Dual Members''), by allocating to FINRA certain regulatory
responsibilities for selected NYSE rules. The Agreement includes a
list of all of those rules (``Common Rules'') for which FINRA has
assumed regulatory responsibilities. See Securities and Exchange Act
Release No. 56148 (July 26, 2007), 72 FR 42146 (August 1, 2007)
(Notice of Filing and Order Approving and Declaring Effective a Plan
for the Allocation of Regulatory Responsibilities). The Common Rules
are the same NYSE rules that FINRA has incorporated into its
rulebook. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 56418 (July 26,
2007), 72 FR 42146 (August 1, 2007) (Notice of Filing and Order
Granting Accelerated Approval of Proposed Rule Change to Incorporate
Certain NYSE Rules Relating to Member Firm Conduct; File No. SR-
NASD-2007-054). Paragraph 2(b) of the 17d-2 Agreement sets forth
procedures regarding proposed changes by either NYSE or FINRA to the
substance of any of the Common Rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As noted in Item 2 of this filing, the operative date of the
proposed rule change is January 1, 2008, which is the operative date of
FINRA's identical amendments to its version of Rule 409.
2. Statutory Basis
    The basis under the Act for this proposed rule change is the
requirement under Section 6(b)(5) \6\ that an Exchange have rules that
are designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, 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(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.

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

    The Exchange has neither solicited nor received written comments on
the proposed rule change.

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

    The foregoing rule change is being filed for immediate
effectiveness pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) \7\ of the Act and Rule
19b-4(f)(6) \8\ promulgated thereunder. The foregoing rule change
effects a change that (A) does not significantly affect the protection
of investors or the public interest; (B) does not impose any
significant burden on competition; and (C) by its terms, does not
become operative for 30 days after the date of the filing, or such
shorter time as the Commission may designate if consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \8\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) becomes
effective upon filing but normally does not become operative prior to
30 days after the date of filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii),\9\ the Commission may designate a shorter time if such
action is consistent with the protection of investors and public
interest. The Exchange requests that the Commission waive the 30-day
delayed operative date, so that the proposed rule change may become
operative on January 1, 2008. In particular, the sole purpose of the
proposed rule change is to conform NYSE's version of NYSE Rule 409 to
FINRA's proposed amendments to NYSE Rule 409, in furtherance of the
consolidation of the member firm regulations functions of NYSE
Regulation and NASD. NYSE requests that the effective date of the
proposed rule change be January 1, 2008, to conform to the effective
date of FINRA's identical amendment to Rule 409 to ensure that Rule 409
maintains its status as a Common Rule under the 17d-2 Agreement. As
provided in paragraph 2(b) of the Agreement, FINRA and NYSE will,
absent a disagreement about the substance of a proposed rule change to
one of the Common Rules, promptly propose conforming changes to ensure
that such rules continue to be Common Rules under the Agreement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 17 CFR 240. 19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with Rule 19b-4,\10\ NYSE submitted 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. NYSE has requested that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative delay contained in Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) \11\ under the Act based upon a representation that the
temporary exemptive relief provided by FINRA and NYSE expires on
January 1, 2008, and to conform to the identical rule amendments
proposed by FINRA. In light of the foregoing, the Commission believes
such waiver is consistent with the protection of investors and the
public interest. Accordingly, the Commission designates the proposal to
be effective upon filing with the Commission and operative on January
1, 2008.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \12\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay of
this proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's
impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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.
