[Docket No. FDA-2010-N-0155]

Veterinary Feed Directive Common Format Questions and Answers;
Guidance for Industry; Availability

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice of availability.

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

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is announcing
the availability of a guidance for industry #233 entitled ``Veterinary
Feed Directive Common Format Questions and Answers.'' FDA had received
comments requesting that we require a uniform Veterinary Feed Directive
(VFD) form. We declined this request because we think that requiring a
specific VFD form would be too prescriptive. However, we acknowledge
that a common VFD format would help veterinarians, their clients (i.e.,
animal producers), and distributors (including feed mills) quickly
identify relevant information on the VFD. We are issuing this guidance
to recommend a common VFD format. We expect this guidance will reduce
potential errors on VFDs.

DATES: Submit either electronic or written comments on Agency guidances
at any time.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments as follows:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    Following publication of the proposed rule to update FDA's
veterinary feed directive (VFD) regulation in December 2013 (78 FR
75515), in the Federal Register of December 1, 2015 (80 FR 75119), FDA
published the notice of availability for a draft guidance entitled
``Veterinary Feed Directive Common Format Questions and Answers''
giving interested persons until February 1, 2016, to comment on the
draft guidance. FDA received several comments on the draft guidance and
those comments were considered as the guidance was finalized. The
guidance announced in this notice finalizes the draft guidance dated
December 2015.

II. Significance of Guidance

    This level 1 guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good
guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The guidance represents
the current thinking of FDA on Veterinary Feed Directive Common Format
Questions and Answers. It does not establish any rights for any person
and is not binding on FDA or the public. You can use an alternative
approach if it satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes
and regulations.

III. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    This guidance refers to previously approved collections of
information found in FDA regulations. These collections of information
are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520). The
collections of information in 21 CFR 514.1 have been approved under OMB
Control No. 0910-0032. The collections of information in 21 CFR 558.6
have been approved under OMB Control No. 0910-0363.

IV. Electronic Access

    Persons with access to the Internet may obtain the guidance at
either http://www.fda.gov/AnimalVeterinary/GuidanceComplianceEnforcement/GuidanceforIndustry/default.htm or http://www.regulations.gov.

    Dated: September 16, 2016.

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2007-0056; Directorate Identifier 2007-SW-06-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Eurocopter France Model EC130 B4
Helicopters

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
Eurocopter France Model EC130B4 helicopters. 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 aviation authority of
France, with which we have a bilateral agreement, states in the MCAI:

    This Airworthiness Directive (AD) is issued following the
discovery of several cases of loosened rivets in the tube-to-flange
attachment of the tail rotor drive center section shaft.
    In one case, this loosening of rivets was associated with a
crack in the tube which started from a loosened-rivet hole.
    These occurrences can lead to failure of the tail rotor drive
center section shaft.

    The proposed AD would require actions that are intended to address
the unsafe condition caused by cracks and loosened rivets in the tube-
to-flange attachment of the tail rotor and the unsafe condition caused
by the out-of-perpendicularity of the No. 1 bearing.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by November 19,
2007.

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.

     Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.
     Mail: U.S. Department of Transportation, Docket

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Streamlined Issuance of AD

    The FAA is implementing a new process for streamlining the issuance
of ADs related to MCAI. This streamlined process will allow us to adopt
MCAI safety requirements in a more efficient manner and will reduce
safety risks to the public. This process continues to follow all FAA AD
issuance processes to meet legal, economic, Administrative Procedure
Act, and Federal Register requirements. We also continue to meet our
technical decision-making responsibilities to identify and correct
unsafe conditions on U.S.-certificated products.
    This proposed AD references the MCAI and related service
information that we considered in forming the engineering basis to
correct the unsafe condition. The proposed AD contains text copied from
the MCAI and for this reason might not follow our plain language
principles.

Comments Invited

    We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposed AD. Send your comments to an address
listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2007-0056;
Directorate Identifier 2007-SW-06-AD'' at the beginning of your
comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this proposed AD. We
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this proposed AD based on those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov
, including any personal information you provide. We

will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this proposed AD.

Discussion

    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued an
MCAI in the form of EASA Airworthiness Directive No. F-2005-190, dated
November 23, 2005 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct
an unsafe condition for this French-certificated product. The MCAI
states:

    This Airworthiness Directive (AD) is issued following the
discovery of several cases of loosened rivets in the tube-to-flange

attachment of the tail rotor drive center section shaft.
    In one case, this loosening of rivets was associated with a
crack in the tube which started from a loosened-rivet hole.
    These occurrences can lead to failure of the tail rotor drive
center section shaft.

You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI and service
information in the AD docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Eurocopter has issued Alert Service Bulletin No. 65A002, dated
November 16, 2005. The actions described in the MCAI are intended to
correct the same unsafe condition as that identified in the service
information.

FAA's Determination and Proposed Requirements

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of France,
and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to our
bilateral agreement with this State of Design Authority, we have been
notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and the service
information. 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 the ``FAA Differences'' section in the proposed AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD would affect 68 helicopters of
U.S. registry and that it would take about 1 work-hour per helicopter
to determine if there are any cracks or loosened rivets in the tube-to-
flange attachment of the tail rotor drive center section shaft and to
determine if the No. 1 bearing is out-of-perpendicularity. Also, we
estimate that it would take about 4 work-hours per helicopter to remove
and replace any nonconforming parts. The average labor rate is $80 per
work-hour. Required parts would cost about $15,007 per helicopter if
replacing a tail rotor drive center section shaft is necessary. Based
on these figures, we estimate the cost to inspect the fleet of
helicopters to be $5,440. Assuming 3 helicopters are found to have
nonconforming parts, we estimate the costs to replace these parts to be
$45,981, resulting in the total cost of the proposed AD on U.S.
operators to be $51,421.

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 an economic 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, 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:

Eurocopter France: Docket No. FAA-2007-0056; Directorate Identifier
2007-SW-06-AD.

Comments Due Date

    (a) We must receive comments by November 19, 2007.

Other Affected ADs

    (b) None.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to Model EC130 B4 helicopters, with a tail
rotor drive center section shaft, part number (P/N) 350A340202; and
bearing, P/N 593404, certificated in any category.

Reason

    (d) The mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
states:
    This Airworthiness Directive (AD) is issued following the
discovery of several cases of loosened rivets in the tube-to-flange
attachment of the tail rotor drive center section shaft.
    In one case, this loosening of rivets was associated with a
crack in the tube which started from a loosened-rivet hole.
    These occurrences can lead to failure of the tail rotor drive
center section shaft.

Actions and Compliance

    (e) Within 50 hours time-in-service (TIS) or 3 months, whichever
occurs first, unless already done, do the following actions.
    (1) Inspect for cracks or loosened rivets in the tube-to-flange
attachment of the tail rotor drive center section shaft and inspect
the perpendicularity of bearing No. 1 in compliance with the
Accomplishment Instructions, paragraph 2.B.2., of Eurocopter Alert
Service Bulletin No. 65A002, dated November 16, 2005 (ASB).
    (2) If a crack or loosened rivet is found, replace the tail
rotor drive center section shaft before further flight.
    (3) If the out-of perpendicularity of the bearing is more than
0.1 mm, apply the corrective procedure described in the
Accomplishment Instructions, paragraph 2.B.2., of the ASB.

Differences Between the FAA AD and the MCAI

    (f) None.

33 CFR Part 127

[Docket Number USCG-2019-0615]

Waterway Suitability Assessment for Operations of Liquefied
Hazardous Gas Terminal; Nederland, TX

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of inquiry; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: We are requesting your comments on a Letter of Intent and
Preliminary Waterway Suitability Assessment we received from Sunoco
Partners Marketing & Terminals to expand their existing liquefied
hazardous gas (LHG) operations by increasing the number of liquefied
propane and butane ship visits from approximately 120 per year to 432
ship visits per year. Additionally, they intend to expand operations to
include 120 liquefied ethane ship visits per year. The Coast Guard is
notifying the public of this proposed increase in LHG marine traffic on
the Sabine-Neches Waterway and is soliciting comments relevant to the
Coast Guard's preparation of a Letter of Recommendation for issuance to
the federal, state, or local agency with jurisdiction over the proposed
facility.

DATES: Your comments and related material must reach the Coast Guard on
or before November 6, 2019.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2019-0615 using the Federal portal at https://www.regulations.gov. See
the ``Public Participation and Request for Comments'' portion of the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further instructions on
submitting comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this
notice of inquiry, call or email Mr. Scott K. Whalen, Vessel Traffic
Service Director, Marine Safety Unit Port Arthur, U.S. Coast Guard;

II. Background and Purpose

    Under 33 CFR 127.007(a), an owner or operator planning to build a
new facility handling liquefied hazardous gas (LHG), or an owner or
operator planning new construction to expand or modify marine terminal
operations in an existing facility handling LHG, where the
construction, expansion, or modification would result in an increase in
the size and/or frequency of LHG marine traffic on the waterway
associated with the proposed facility or modification to an existing
facility, must submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) to the Captain of the
Port of the zone in which the facility is or will be located. Under 33
CFR 127.007(e), an owner or operator planning such new construction or
expansion of an existing facility must also file or update a Waterway
Suitability Assessment (WSA) that addresses the proposed increase in
LHG marine traffic in the associated waterway.
    Under 33 CFR 127.009, after receiving an LOI, the Captain of the
Port issues a Letter of Recommendation (LOR) as to the suitability of
the waterway for LHG marine traffic to the appropriate jurisdictional
authorities. The LOR is based on a series of factors listed in 33 CFR
127.009 that relate to the physical nature of the affected waterway and
issues of safety and security associated with LHG marine traffic on the
affected waterway.

III. Information Requested

    On March 11, 2013, Sunoco Partners Marketing and Terminals, located
in Nederland, TX, submitted an LOI and Preliminary WSA indicating the
company's proposed plans to expand operations of an existing dock to
handle liquefied hazardous gas, specifically propane and butane, with
an estimated 132 vessels calling on the facility each year. On July 14,
2019, the COTP received a new LOI and an Addendum to the original WSA.
The purpose of this notice is to solicit public comments on the
proposed increase in LNG marine traffic on the Sabine-Neches Waterway.
The Coast Guard believes that public input may be useful to the Captain
of the Port Marine Safety Unit Port Arthur (COTP) with respect to
validating the information provided in Sunoco's LOI and WSA Addendum
and the development of the Coast Guard's LOR. A brief summary of
Sunoco's proposal is available in the docket where indicated under
ADDRESSES.
    On January 24, 2011, the Coast Guard published Navigation and
Vessel Inspection Circular (NVIC) 01-2011, titled ``Guidance Related to
Waterfront Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Facilities.'' NVIC 01-2011
provides guidance for owners and operators seeking approval to build
and operate LNG facilities. The Coast Guard will refer to NVIC 01-2011
for process information and guidance in evaluating Sunoco's WSA
Addendum. NVIC 01-2011 is available in the docket where indicated under
ADDRESSES and also on the Coast Guard's website at https://www.dco.uscg.mil/Portals/9/DCO%20Documents/5p/5ps/NVIC/2011/NVIC%2001-2011%20Final.pdf.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-76801; File No. SR-Phlx-2015-99]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC; Notice of
Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change Regarding
Order Exposure

December 30, 2015.
    Pursuant to section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on December 15, 2015, NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC (``Phlx'' or ``Exchange'')
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``SEC'' or
``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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \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 Phlx Rule 1080, entitled ``Phlx XL
and Phlx XL II,'' to account for potential internal conflicts with
other Exchange Rules, which are exceptions to the order exposure rule
regarding principle orders the Order Entry Firm represents as agent
from being exposed.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
Web site at http://nasdaqomxphlx.cchwallstreet.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 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
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend Phlx Rule 1080(c)(ii)(C) to provide
that other Exchange Rules are exceptions to rules requiring Order Entry
Firms to expose orders and to name those rules. Today, Phlx Rule
1080(c)(ii)(C)(1) provides that,

    Principal Transactions: Order Entry Firms may not execute as
principal against orders on the limit order book they represent as
agent unless: (a) Agency orders are first exposed on the limit order
book for at least one (1) second, (b) the Order Entry Firm has been
bidding or offering on the Exchange for at least one (1) second
prior to receiving an agency order that is executable against such
order, or (c) the Order Entry Firm proceeds in accordance with the
crossing rules contained in Rule 1064.

Further, Phlx Rule 1080(c)(ii)(C)(2) and (3) provide,

    Solicitation Orders. Order Entry Firms must expose orders they
represent as agent for at least one (1) second before such orders
may be automatically executed, in whole or in part, against orders
solicited from members and non-member broker-dealers to transact
with such orders.
    It shall be a violation of Rule 1080(c)(ii)(C) for any Exchange
member or member organization to be a party to any arrangement
designed to circumvent Rule 1080(c)(ii)(C) by providing an
opportunity for a customer, member, member organization, or non-
member broker-dealer to execute immediately against agency orders
delivered to the Exchange, whether such orders are delivered via
AUTOM or represented in the trading crowd by a member or a member
organization.

The Exchange notes that there are other exceptions to the general rule
regarding the exposure of principal orders represented as agent by the
Order Entry Firm. Also, other options exchanges have similar order
exposure exceptions.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See International Securities Exchange LLC (``ISE'') Rule
717(d) and BOX Options Exchange LLC (``BOX'') Rule 7140.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The first proposed additional exception to the order exposure rule
is Price Improvement XL or ``PIXL.'' \4\ PIXL is a component of the
Exchange's fully automated options trading system, PHLX XL that allows
a member or member organization to electronically submit for execution
an order it represents as agent on behalf of a public customer, broker-
dealer, or any other entity (``PIXL Order'') against principal interest
or against any other order it represents as agent (an ``Initiating
Order'') provided it submits the PIXL Order for electronic execution
into the PIXL Auction (``Auction''). This mechanism is an exception to
the general rule in [sic], which requires Phlx members and member
organizations to expose principal orders they represent as agent for at
least one (1) second prior to receiving an agency order that is
executable against such bid or offer. With PIXL, paired orders are
submitted simultaneously and would not violate Phlx Rule
1080(c)(ii)(C).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Phlx Rule 1080(n). Complex Orders may also be placed
into PIXL.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The second proposed additional exception to the order exposure rule
is the Complex Order Live Auction or ``COLA.'' \5\ COLA is the
automated Complex Order Live Auction process. A COLA may take place
upon identification of the existence of a COLA-eligible order either:
(1) Following a COOP, or (2) during normal trading if the Phlx XL
system receives a Complex Order that improves the cPBBO. Phlx XL
participants may bid and/or offer on either or both side(s) of the
market during the COLA Timer by submitting one or more bids or offers
that improve the cPBBO, known as a ``COLA Sweep.'' \6\ COLA does not
abide by the one second order exposure requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Phlx Rule 1080, Commentary .02(c)(ii)(e) [sic].
    \6\ A single Phlx XL participant may submit multiple COLA Sweeps
at different prices (but not multiple COLA Sweeps at the same price,
except as provided in sub-paragraph (B) below) in increments of
$0.01 in response to a COLA broadcast, regardless of the minimum
trading increment applicable to the specific series. Phlx XL
participants may change the size of a previously submitted COLA
Sweep at the previously submitted COLA price during the COLA Timer.
The system will use the Phlx XL participant's most recently
submitted COLA Sweep at each price level as that participant's
response at that price level, unless the COLA Sweep has a size of
zero. A COLA Sweep with a size of zero will remove a Phlx XL
participant's COLA Sweep from the COLA at that price level. COLA
Sweeps will not be visible to any participant and will not be
disseminated by the Exchange. See Phlx Rule 1080, Commentary
.02(c)(ii)(e)(iv)(A)-(C) [sic].
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The third proposed additional exception to the order exposure rule
is the Qualified Contingent Cross or ``QCC'' mechanism.\7\ A QCC Order
is comprised of an originating order to buy or sell at least 1,000
contracts, or 10,000 contracts in the case of Mini Options, which is
identified as being part of a qualified contingent trade that is
coupled with a contra-side order or orders totaling an equal number of
contracts.\8\ With QCC, coupled orders are submitted simultaneously and
would not violate Phlx Rule 1080(c)(ii)(C).\9\ A QCC transaction
consists of two or more component orders, executed as agent or
principal, where: (a) At least one component is an NMS Stock, as
defined in Rule 600 of Regulation NMS under the Exchange Act; (b) all
components are effected with a product or price contingency that either
has been agreed to by all the respective counterparties or arranged for
by a broker-dealer as principal or agent; (c) the execution of one
component is contingent upon the execution of all other components at
or near the same time; (d) the specific relationship between the
component orders (e.g., the spread between the prices of the component
orders) is determined by the time the contingent order is placed; (e)
the component orders bear a derivative relationship to one another,
represent different classes of shares of the same issuer, or involve
the securities of participants in mergers or with intentions to merge
that have been announced or cancelled; and (f) the transaction is fully
hedged (without regard to any prior existing position) as a result of
other components of the contingent trade.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Phlx Rules 1080(o).
    \8\ See Phlx Rule 1080(o).
    \9\ Complex Orders may also be placed into PIXL. See Phlx Rule
1080(n).
    \10\ See Phlx Rule 1080(o)(3).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that amending Phlx Rule 1080(c)(ii)(C) to add
rule text to include these additional exceptions to this general rule
regarding order exposure will conform the rule text.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with section
6(b) of the Act \11\ in general, and furthers the objectives of section
6(b)(5) of the Act \12\ in particular, in that it is 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, by explicitly delineating all exceptions to the general rule
regarding the requirements to expose certain principal orders which the
Order Entry firm represents as agent. Specifically, the Exchange's
proposal amends the order exposure rule to list PIXL, COLA and QCC as
exceptions to the wait time to expose such principal orders the Order
Entry Firm represents as agent for at least one (1) second prior to
receiving an agency order that is executable against such bid or offer.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange's proposal will make clear that PIXL is an exception
to the

general rule, which requires Phlx members and member organizations to
expose principal orders they represent as agent for at least one (1)
second prior to receiving an agency order that is executable against
such bid or offer. PIXL permits Participants to enter paired orders
without first exposing those orders for one second. The Exchange
believes that providing an exception to the order exposure rule for
orders entered into PIXL is consistent with the Act, because while
PIXL's auction will last for one second, the orders may be entered as
paired orders.\13\ A Phlx member or member organization, known as the
Initiating Participant, must enter an order into the PIXL Mechanism as
specified by Phlx Rule 1080(n).\14\ Complex Orders may also be entered
into PIXL and such prices must be at the cPBBO or better.\15\
Initiating Participants entering orders into PIXL are required to
guarantee an execution at the NBBO (cPBBO for Complex Orders) or at a
better price, and are subject to market risk while their PIXL Order is
exposed to other market participants in this competitive auction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ See Phlx Rule 1080(o).
    \14\ To initiate the Auction (except if it is a Complex Order),
the Initiating Member must mark the PIXL Order for Auction
processing, and specify either: (a) A single price at which it seeks
to execute the PIXL Order (a ``stop price''); (b) that it is willing
to automatically match as principal or as agent on behalf of an
Initiating Order the price and size of all PAN responses, and
trading interest (``auto-match'') in which case the PIXL Order will
be stopped at the NBBO on the Initiating Order side; or (c) that it
is willing to either: (i) Stop the entire order at a single stop
price and auto-match PAN responses and trading interest at a price
or prices that improve the stop price to a specified price (a ``Not
Worse Than'' or ``NWT'' price); (ii) stop the entire order at a
single stop price and auto-match all PAN responses and trading
interest at or better than the stop price; or (iii) stop the entire
order at the NBBO on the Initiating Order side, and auto-match PAN
responses and trading interest at a price or prices that improve the
stop price up to the NWT price. In all cases, if the PBBO on the
same side of the market as the PIXL Order represents a limit order
on the book, the stop price must be at least one minimum price
improvement increment better than the booked limit order's limit
price. Once the Initiating Member has submitted a PIXL Order for
processing pursuant to this subparagraph, such PIXL Order may not be
modified or cancelled. The stop price or NWT price may be improved
to the benefit of the PIXL Order during the Auction, but may not be
cancelled. See Phlx Rule 1080(n)(ii)(A)(1).
    \15\ To initiate the PIXL Complex Order Auction, the Initiating
Member must mark the PIXL Order for Auction processing, and specify
either: (a) A single price at which it seeks to execute the PIXL
Order (a ``stop price''); or (b) that it is willing to either: (i)
Stop the entire order at a single stop price and auto-match PAN
responses and trading interest at a price or prices that improve the
stop price to a specified price (a ``Not Worse Than'' or ``NWT''
price); or (ii) stop the entire order at a single stop price and
auto-match all PAN responses and trading interest at or better than
the stop price. Once the Initiating Member has submitted a PIXL
Complex Order for processing pursuant to this subparagraph, such
PIXL Order may not be modified or cancelled. Under any of the
circumstances described in sub-paragraphs (a)-(b) in note 14, the
stop price or NWT price may be improved to the benefit of the PIXL
Order during the Auction, but may not be cancelled. See Phlx Rule
1080(n)(ii)(A)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange's proposal will make clear that COLA is an exception
to the general order exposure rule. A ``COLA-eligible order'' means a
Complex Order (a) identified by way of a COOP, or (b) that, upon
receipt, improves the cPBBO respecting the specific Complex Order
Strategy that is the subject of the Complex Order and is not for a
market maker, as specified in Phlx Rule 1080.07 (b)(ii).\16\ COLA-
eligible orders are executed without consideration of any prices that
might be available on other exchanges trading the same options
contracts. The COLA will begin with a timing mechanism (a ``COLA
Timer''), which is a counting period not to exceed five (5) seconds
during which Phlx XL participants may submit bids or offers that
improve the cPBBO. Phlx XL participants may bid and/or offer on either
or both side(s) of the market during the COLA Timer by submitting one
or more bids or offers that improve the cPBBO, known as a ``COLA
Sweep.'' COLA Sweeps will not be visible to any participant and will
not be disseminated by the Exchange. Upon the expiration of the COLA
Timer, COLA Sweeps and/or any Complex Orders received during the COLA
Timer that improve the cPBBO may be executed against the COLA-eligible
order.\17\ The Exchange believes that providing an exception to the
order exposure rule for orders entered into COLA is consistent with the
Act, because while COLA auction may exceed one second, the COLA-
eligible order will receive the best price or prices available for the
Complex Order Strategy represented by the COLA-eligible order, and are
subject to market risk while their Complex Order is exposed to other
market participants in this competitive auction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ If the Phlx XL system identifies the existence of a COLA-
eligible order following a COOP or by way of receipt during normal
trading of a Complex Order that improves the cPBBO, such COLA-
eligible order will initiate a COLA, during which Phlx XL
participants may bid and offer against the COLA-eligible order
pursuant to this rule.
    \17\ See Phlx Rule 1080, Commentary .02(c)(ii)(e) [sic].
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange's proposal will make clear that QCC is an exception to
the general order exposure rule. QCC Orders are immediately executed
upon entry into the System by an Order Entry Firm provided that (i) no
Customer Orders are at the same price on the Exchange's limit order
book and (ii) the price is at or between the NBBO. The Exchange
believes that providing an exception to the order exposure rule for
orders entered into QCC is consistent with the Act, because when
entered into the System QCC Orders are coupled with a contra-side order
or orders totaling an equal number of contracts. These orders must be
executed at a price that is at or between the NBBO, and are subject to
market risk while the QCC Order is exposed to other market participants
in this competitive auction.
    The proposed amendments provide additional exceptions to the
current order exposure rule and will serve to protect investors and the
public interest by providing additional information in the Rules
concerning exceptions.

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 not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed changes do not
impose any burden on competition, rather, the amendment provides an
exception to the order exposure rule for orders entered into PIXL, COLA
and QCC for all Phlx members and member organizations. The Exchange
believes that this exception will further inform Phlx members and
member organizations of their obligations with respect to order
exposure. Phlx members and member organizations entering orders into
PILX [sic], COLA or QCC are subject to market risk while their order is
exposed to other market participants and member organizations in these
competitive auctions.

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

    No written comments were either solicited or received.

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)(iii) of the Act \18\ and

subparagraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b-4 thereunder.\19\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(a)(iii).
    \19\ 7 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
requires a self-regulatory organization to give the Commission
written notice of its intent to file 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 satisfied 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: (i)
Necessary or appropriate in the public interest; (ii) for the
protection of investors; or (iii) otherwise in furtherance of the
purposes of the Act. If the Commission takes such action, the
Commission shall institute proceedings to determine whether the
proposed rule should be approved or disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:

Electronic Comments

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3521), Federal
Agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor.
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests or requirements that members of
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A))
requires Federal Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal
Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including
each proposed extension of an existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with
this requirement, FDA is publishing notice of the proposed collection
of information set forth in this document.
    With respect to the following collection of information, FDA
invites comments on these topics: (1) whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's
functions, including whether the information will have practical

utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques, when
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.

Color Additive Certification--21 CFR Part 80

OMB Control Number 0910-0216--Extension

    This information collection helps support FDA regulations governing
certification for color additives used in foods, drugs, cosmetics, and
medical devices. All color additives must have FDA-approval for their
intended use and be listed in the color additive regulations before
they are permitted for use in food, drugs, cosmetics, and many medical
devices. Some color additives have an additional requirement: they are
permitted only if they are from batches that FDA has certified under
section 721(a) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C.
379e(a)). This means that FDA chemists have analyzed a sample from the
batch and have found that it meets the requirements for composition and
purity stated in the regulation, called a ``listing regulation,'' for
that color additive. We list color additives that have been shown to be
safe for their intended uses in Title 21 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR). We require batch certification for all color
additives listed in 21 CFR part 74 and for all color additives
provisionally listed in 21 CFR part 82. Color additives listed in 21
CFR part 73 are exempted from certification.
    The requirements for color additive certification are established
in part 80 (21 CFR part 80). Procedures for color additive
certification are set forth in part 80, subpart B (Sec. Sec.  80.21
through 80.39) and communicate required data elements for requests for
certification, limitations of certificates, exemptions from
certification for color additive mixtures, treatment of batches pending
and after certification, and recordkeeping requirements for respondents
to whom a certificate is issued. During the batch certification
procedure, a manufacturer of color additives must submit a ``request
for certification'' that provides information about the batch,
accompanied by a representative sample of a new batch of color
additive, to us. FDA personnel perform chemical and other analyses of
the representative sample and, providing the sample satisfies all
certification requirements, issue a certificate that contains a
certification lot number for the batch. The batch can then be used in
FDA-regulated products marketed in the United States, in compliance
with the uses and restrictions in that color additive's listing
regulation. If the sample does not meet the requirements, the batch
will be rejected. We require manufacturers to keep complete records
showing disposal of all of the color additive covered by the
certification.
    FDA's web-based color certification information system is available
for respondents to request color certification online, track their
submissions, and obtain account status information. Prior to submitting
a request for certification, the manufacturer must open a color
certification account by sending a letter, as an email attachment,
signed by responsible company representative, to FDA's Office of
Cosmetics and Colors at [email protected]. System certification
results are returned electronically, allowing submitters to sell their
certified color before receiving hard copy certificates.
    We charge a fee for certification based on the batch weight and
require manufacturers to keep records of the batch pending and after
certification. The user fees support FDA's color certification program.
Additional information about color additive certification is available
at: https://www.fda.gov/industry/color-additives/color-certification.
    The purpose for collecting this information is to help the Agency
assure that only safe color additives will be used in foods, drugs,
cosmetics, and medical devices sold in the United States.
    Description of Respondents: The respondents include businesses
engaged in the manufacture of color additives used in FDA-regulated
foods, drugs, cosmetics, and medical devices. Respondents are from the
private sector (for-profit businesses).
    We estimate the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.

    We base our estimate on our review of the certification requests
received over the past 3 years. Using information from industry
personnel, we estimate that an average of 0.22 hour per response is
required for reporting (preparing certification requests and
accompanying samples) and an average of 0.25 hour per response is
required for recordkeeping.
    Based on a review of the information collection since our last
request for OMB approval, we have slightly decreased our burden
estimate based on our experience with this program. As a result,
although the number of respondents increased, the number of responses
per respondent decreased.

    Dated: August 7, 2023.

Associate Commissioner for Policy.

Ballard's telephone number is<PHONE_NUMBER>. Please identify the
relevant collection of information by referring to its OMB Control
Number.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

    Title: 49 CFR part 544; Insurer Reporting Requirement.
    OMB Control Number: 2127-0547.
    Type of Request: Request for public comment on a previously
approved collection of information.
    Abstract: This information collection supports the Department's
strategic goal of Economic Growth and Trade. The Motor Vehicle Theft
Law Enforcement Act of 1984, added Title VI to the Motor Vehicle and
Information Cost Savings Act (recodified as Chapter 331 of Title 49,
United States Code) which mandated this information collection. The
1984 Theft Act was amended by the Anti Car Theft Act (ACTA) of 1992
(Pub. L. 102-519). NHTSA is authorized under 49 U.S.C. 33112, to
collect this information. This information collection supports the
agency's economic growth and trade goal through rulemaking
implementation developed to help reduce the cost of vehicle ownership
by reducing the cost of comprehensive insurance coverage. 49 U.S.C.
33112 requires certain passenger motor vehicle insurance companies and
rental/leasing companies to provide information to NHTSA on
comprehensive insurance premiums, theft and recoveries and actions
taken to address motor vehicle theft.
    Affected Public: Business or other for profit.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: Based on prior years' insurer
compilation information, the agency estimates that the time to review
and compile information for the reports will take approximately a total
of 19,625 burden hours (17,500 man-hours for 25 insurance companies and
2,125 man-hours for 5 rental and leasing companies). Claim Adjusters
incur separate burden hours from the number of insurers. Claim
adjuster's duties are those of normal business practice and do not
assist in preparing or compiling information for the reports. There has
been a decrease in the number of companies required to report since the
last reporting period, also, some companies have merged into one entity
or have been exempted from the reporting requirements since the last
reporting period. The agency has re-estimated the burden hours to be
19,625 total annual hours requested in lieu of 63,238 as the current
OMB inventory. This is a decrease of 43,613 hours. Most recent year
insurer compilation information estimates reveal that it takes an
average cost of $47.00 per hour for clerical and technical staff to
prepare the annual reports. Therefore, the agency estimates the total
cost associated with the burden hours is $922,375.
    The burden hour for rental and leasing companies is significantly
less than that for insurance companies because rental and leasing
companies comply with fewer reporting requirements than the insurance
companies. The reporting burden is

based on insurers' salaries, clerical and technical expenses, and labor
costs.
    Comments are invited on: Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the Department, including whether the information will have practical
utility; the accuracy of the Department's estimate of the burden of the
proposed information collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility
and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to minimize
the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including
the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
    A Comment to OMB is most effective if OMB receives it within 30
days of publication.
