[Docket No. FAA-2019-0597; Product Identifier 2019-NE-05-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; CFM International S.A. Turbofan Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2019-12-05, which applies to certain CFM International S.A. (CFM)
CFM56-5B, CFM56-5C, and CFM56-7B model turbofan engines with a certain
rotating air high-pressure turbine (HPT) front seal. AD 2019-12-05
requires replacement of the affected rotating air HPT front seal with a
part eligible for

installation. The actions required by AD 2019-12-05 are interim and
only address the highest risk engines with an affected rotating air HPT
front seal that have a specified number of cycles since being
reconfigured. This proposed AD would require removal and replacement of
the rotating air HPT front seals installed on all CFM CFM56-5B, CFM56-
5C, and CFM56-7B model turbofan engines, including engines that have
fewer cycles since being reconfigured. The FAA is proposing this AD to
address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by December 9,
2019.

Discussion

    The FAA issued AD 2019-12-05, Amendment 39-19660 (84 FR 28717, June
20, 2019), (``AD 2019-12-05''), for all CFM CFM56-5B, CFM56-5C, and
CFM56-7B model turbofan engines with a certain rotating air HPT front
seal. AD 2019-12-05 requires replacement of the affected rotating air
HPT front seal with a part eligible for installation. AD 2019-12-05
resulted from cracks found in the rotating air HPT front seal. The FAA
issued AD 2019-12-05 to prevent failure of the rotating air HPT front
seal.

Actions Since AD 2019-12-05 Was Issued

    The actions required by AD 2019-12-05 are interim and only address
the highest risk engines with an affected rotating air HPT front seal
that have a specified number of cycles since being reconfigured. The
FAA now proposes to supersede AD 2019-12-05 to require removal and
replacement of the rotating air HPT front seals installed on all CFM
CFM56-5B, CFM56-5C, and CFM56-7B model turbofan engines, including
engines that have fewer cycles since being reconfigured.

Related Service Information

    The FAA reviewed CFM Service Bulletin (SB) CFM56-5B S/B 72-1074,
Revision 01, dated December 5, 2018; CFM SB CFM56-5C S/B 72-0794,
Revision 01, dated January 2, 2019; and CFM SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1042,
Revision 01, dated January 2, 2019. CFM SB CFM56-5B S/B 72-1074,
Revision 01, describes procedures for replacement of the affected
rotating air HPT front seal on CFM CFM56-5B model turbofan engines. CFM
SB CFM56-5C S/B 72-0794, Revision 01, describes procedures for
replacement of the affected rotating air HPT front seal on CFM CFM56-5C
model turbofan engines. CFM SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1042, Revision 01,
describes procedures for replacement of the affected rotating air HPT
front seal on CFM CFM56-7B model turbofan engines.

FAA's Determination

    The FAA is proposing this AD because it evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would retain all requirements of AD 2019-12-05.
This proposed AD would add CFM CFM56-5B, CFM56-5C, and CFM56-7B model
turbofan engines to the applicability.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this proposed AD affects four engines
installed on airplanes of U.S. registry.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:

 seal.                                   hour = $85.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.
    The FAA is 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.
    This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to engines, propellers, and
associated appliances to the Manager, Engine and Propeller Standards
Branch, Policy and Innovation Division.

Regulatory Findings

    The FAA has 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 that the proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, 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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Background: FMCSA registers for-hire motor carriers of regulated
commodities and of passengers, under 49 U.S.C. 13902(a); surface
freight forwarders, under 49 U.S.C. 13903; property brokers, under 49
U.S.C. 13904; and certain Mexico-domiciled motor carriers, under 49
U.S.C. 13902(c). These motor carriers may conduct transportation
services in the United States only if they are registered with FMCSA.
Each registration is effective from the date specified and remains in
effect for such period as the Secretary of Transportation (Secretary)
determines by regulations.
    The final rule titled ``Unified Registration System,'' (78 FR
52608) dated August 23, 2013, implemented statutory provisions for an
online registration system for entities that are subject to FMCSA's
licensing, registration, and certification regulations. URS streamlines
the registration process and serves as a clearinghouse and repository
of information on motor carriers, brokers, freight forwarders,
intermodal equipment providers, hazardous materials safety permit
applicants, and cargo tank facilities required to register with FMCSA.
When developing URS, FMCSA planned that the OP-1 series of forms
(except for OP-1(MX)) would ultimately be folded into one overarching
form (MCSA-1), which would be used by all motor carriers seeking
authority.
    FMCSA began a phased rollout of URS in 2015. The first phase, which
became effective on December 12, 2015, impacts only first-time
applicants seeking an FMCSA-issued registration. FMCSA had planned
subsequent rollout phases for existing registrants; however, there have
been substantial delays, and subsequent phases have not been rolled out
to date.
    On January 17, 2017, FMCSA issued a final rule titled ``Unified
Registration System; Suspension of Effectiveness,'' which indefinitely
suspended URS effectiveness dates for existing registrants only (82 FR
5292). Pursuant to this final rule, FMCSA is still

accepting forms OP-1, OP-1(P), OP-1(FF), and OP-1(NNA) for existing
registrants wishing to apply for additional authorities. Separately,
FMCSA requires Form OP-1(MX) for Mexico-domiciled carriers that wish to
operate beyond the U.S. municipalities on the U.S.-Mexico border and
their commercial zones.
    As described above, only first-time applicants seeking an FMCSA-
issued registration must apply for authority via URS, using Form MCSA-
1. Under URS, all forms described in the current ICR, except OP-1(MX),
are folded into Form MCSA-1. Information collection activities
associated with the OP-1 series of forms are covered under a different
ICR, titled ``Licensing Applications for Motor Carrier Operating
Authority,'' OMB Control No. 2126-0016.
    Form MCSA-1 requests information to identify the applicant, the
nature and scope of its proposed operations, safety-related details,
and information regarding the drivers and vehicles it plans to use in
U.S. operations. FMCSA and the States use registration information
collected via Form MCSA-1 to track motor carriers, freight forwarders,
brokers, and other entities they regulate. Registering motor carriers
is essential to being able to identify carriers so that their safety
performance can be tracked and evaluated. The data make it possible to
link individual trucks to the responsible motor carrier, thus
implementing the mandate under 49 U.S.C. 31136(a)(1); that is, ensuring
that CMVs are maintained and operated safely). In general, registration
information collected via Form MCSA-1 informs prioritization of the
Agency's activities and aids in assessing and statistically analyzing
the safety outcomes of those activities.
    The current information collection supports the DOT Strategic Goal
of Safety. It streamlines registration processes and ensures that FMCSA
can more efficiently track motor carriers, freight forwarders, brokers,
and other entities regulated by the Agency.
    Title: Unified Registration System, FMCSA Registration/Updates.
    OMB Control Number: 2126-0051.
    Type of Request: Renewal of a currently approved ICR.
    Respondents: Carrier compliance officer or equivalent from
transportation entities subject to FMCSA's licensing, registration, and
certification regulations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 283,857 (94,619 annualized).
    Estimated Time per Response: 1.34 hours.
    Expiration Date: April 30, 2023.
    Frequency of Response: One-time information collection.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 380,368 (126,789 annualized).
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including: (1) whether the proposed
collection is necessary for the performance of FMCSA's functions; (2)
the accuracy of the estimated burden; (3) ways for FMCSA to enhance the
quality, usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and (4)
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of
the collected information. The Agency will summarize or include your
comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this ICR.

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

    \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, pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Act \3\ and Rule
19b-4 thereunder,\4\ proposes to delete Exchange Rule 793,
Affiliations--Dual and [sic] Multiple and amend Rule 908, Rights and
Privileges of A-1 Permits, and Option Floor Procedure Advices
(``OFPAs'') F-9, Dual Affiliations, and F-11, Splitting Order [sic],
and Regulation 3, Identification Badges/Access Cards to provide that a

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \4\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange is also proposing to make a clarifying amendment to
Rule 908(h) regarding permit transfer. Finally, the Exchange desires to
amend Exchange Rule 900.2 to add a provision for lapsed applications.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
Web site at http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/micro.aspx?id=PHLXRulefilings,
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 purpose of the proposed rule change is to eliminate and reserve
Exchange Rule 793 titled Affiliations--Dual or Multiple and adopt a
simple standard for multiple affiliations. Currently, Exchange Rule 793
provides that no person shall at the same time be a partner, officer,
director, stockholder, or associated person of more than one member or
participant organization, nor shall he be affiliated in any manner with
a non-member or non-participant organization which is engaged in the
securities business, unless such affiliation has been disclosed to and
approved in writing by the member and/or participant organization and
such approval has been filed with the Office of the Secretary.
    Currently, a permit holder may affiliate with more than one member
or participant organization so long as the Exchange is notified, in
writing, of the affiliation. The affiliation involves an agreement
between the member organizations and the permit holder. The Exchange is
not a party to that arrangement. The Exchange requires: (i) An
explanation of the business purpose for the arrangement; and (ii)
identification of the individuals who shall supervise the business
conduct of the permit holder that is multiply affiliated for compliance
with the By-Laws and Rules. The Exchange may disapprove multiple
affiliations which are inconsistent with Exchange standards of
financial responsibility, operational capability, or compliance
responsibility.
    Currently, an affiliation pursuant to Rule 793 allows a person to
be associated with multiple member organizations for different
purposes. Specifically, if a broker dealer sought membership on the
Exchange for the purpose of electronic access to the Exchange's trading
system, that broker dealer could seek an affiliation pursuant to Rule
793. In this example, the affiliation would serve to provide membership
status to a broker dealer without the need for the broker dealer to
secure a permit. If a member organization is solely gaining electronic
access to the Exchange, that member organization only requires one
permit to qualify as a member organization.
    Another purpose for the dual affiliation could involve access to
the Exchange's trading floor and the ability for permit holders to
affiliate with multiple member organizations for greater flexibility.
In this example floor traders could become affiliated with various
related member organizations in order to satisfy certain trading and/or
staffing requirements. If a member organization is conducting business
on the Exchange's trading floor, each person associated with that
member organization on the trading floor who functions in a trading
capacity is required to have a permit. Every trader on the Exchange's
trading floor is required to obtain a Series A-1 permit.
    The Exchange is proposing to eliminate this Rule \5\ and instead
amend Exchange Rule 908 to allow a Series A-1 permit holder on the
Exchange's trading floor to affiliate with up to two member
organizations (a primary and a secondary member organization) that are
under common ownership, a primary and a secondary member
organization.\6\ The common ownership would be at least 75% common
ownership between the member organizations. Both the primary and
secondary member organizations would be required to notify the
Membership Department of such an affiliation. Notification of such
affiliation pursuant to 908(b)(i) would include: (i) An attestation of
common ownership; (ii) the names of the individuals responsible for
supervision of the permit holder; and (iii) the Exchange account
numbers for billing purposes.\7\ A Series A-1 permit holder would also
be required to comply with all current membership By-Laws and Rules.
Specifically, By-Laws 13-2, 13-4 and 13-6, among others, would still
condition membership.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The Commission notes the Exchange is proposing to reserve
Rule 793.
    \6\ Notwithstanding applicable By-Laws and Rules conditioning
membership, a Series A-1 permit holder on the Exchange's trading
floor may be affiliated with up to two (2) member organizations that
are under common ownership.
    \7\ Both the primary and secondary member organizations would be
required to execute a form which the Membership Department shall
make available once the Membership Department is notified of the
proposed affiliation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    While a Series A-1 permit holder who is already affiliated with a
member organization (primary affiliation) may affiliate with a member
organization under common ownership (a secondary affiliation) as
proposed herein, the permit holder must comply with all applicable
registration, qualification and examination requirements. The proposed
amendment to Rule 908(b)(i) allows the Series A-1 permit holder the
ability to engage in trading activity on behalf of either the primary
or secondary member organization that the permit holder is affiliated
with as per Rule 908(b)(i). The Exchange's By-Laws and Rules would
continue to apply to affiliated permit holders (permit holders with a
primary and a secondary affiliation) and the affiliated member
organizations (primary and secondary affiliations) with respect to
trading, registration, qualifications, examinations and other
membership requirements. Further, the Exchange would have access to
information on the affiliate in order to allow it to carry out its
regulatory responsibility with respect to the member organization and
its affiliated persons.
    For example, an affiliated Series A-1 permit holder (a permit
holder with a primary and a secondary affiliation) is required to
display a badge on the Exchange's trading floor identifying on behalf
of which member organization the permit holder is trading for on a
particular day. For example whether the Series A-1 permit holder is
trading for the primary or secondary member organization.\8\ The badge
is used to identify the member organization with which the Series A-1
permit holder is affiliated. The Series A-1 permit holder is required
to maintain all the requisite qualifications, registrations and comply
with all applicable trading rules at all times. The Series A-1 permit
holder is required to specifically obtain and maintain all necessary
registrations to trade for an affiliated member organization, as well
as the necessary qualifications.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ The Exchange requires a Series A-1 permit holder on the
Exchange's trading floor to wear a badge which is provided by the
Exchange and contains identifying information. The affiliated Series
A-1 permit holder cannot simultaneously trade for both the primary
and secondary member organization on the same day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In particular, the Exchange requires certain information from the
Series A-1 permit holder seeking affiliation in order to assure
compliance with Rule 908 and other membership requirements

as well as other Rules. Specifically, the affiliated permit holder
(permit holder with a primary and a secondary affiliation) would be
required to disclose the individuals at each member organization
(primary and secondary) responsible for supervising the Series A-1
permit holder.\9\ This information is utilized by the Regulatory staff
in its examination of persons trading on the Exchange for appropriate
compliance with the Rules of the Exchange.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The Commission notes that the Exchange has proposed that
both member organizations, not the affiliated permit holder, will be
responsible for notifying the Exchange of the identity of the
individuals supervising the affiliated permit holder. See proposed
Rule 908(b)(i).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If a Series A-1 permit holder who is currently affiliated pursuant
to Rule 793 is not affiliated with entities under common ownership, the
organization that they qualify as a member would be required to obtain
its own permit in order to maintain its membership status. A Series A-1
permit holder who currently affiliates with an unrelated party (not
under common ownership) to qualify a member organization for electronic
access or access to the trading floor would not be permitted to
continue to qualify that member organization under this proposal.
Similarly, if a permit holder had more than two affiliations with a
member organization they would only be permitted to maintain an
affiliation with up to two member organizations. The amended text of
Rule 908 requires that a Series A-1 permit holder can only affiliate
with up to two member organizations that are under common ownership.
    In addition, the Exchange proposes to make conforming amendments to
certain OFPAs \10\ and Regulations,\11\ specifically, OFPA F-9, Dual
Affiliations, OFPA F-11, Splitting Order [sic], and Regulation 3,
Identification Badges/Access Cards.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ The Exchange's minor rule plan consists of options floor
procedure advices (``OFPAs'' or ``Advices'') with preset fines,
pursuant to Rule 19d-1(c) under the Act. 17 CFR 240.19d-1(c). Most
OFPAs have corresponding options rules.
    \11\ Regulation 3 is part of the Exchange's Order and Decorum
Regulations administered pursuant to Exchange Rule 60.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to amend OFPA F-9 by removing references to
``dual'' so that the filing [sic] simply refers to affiliations. The
Exchange is changing the requirement to report to the Office of the
Secretary to the Membership Department to conform with the proposed
amendment to Rule 908. The Exchange proposes to amend the reference to
Rule 793, which is being deleted, and instead refer to Rule 908.
    The Exchange is also proposing to amend the language in OFPA F-9 to
remove the requirements to explain compensation since the only
affiliations that will be acceptable are those under common ownership.
The Exchange is deleting the requirement to file an explanation of all
agreed upon forms of compensation between affiliated firms because the
Exchange believes that the information is not necessary since the firms
would be required to be under common ownership pursuant to this
proposal. The Exchange is also adding a sentence indicating that floor
members must adhere to the requirements in renamed (a) and (b). The
Exchange is proposing to reference Exchange Rule 1020 for the newly
named F-9(ii)(a). The Exchange added this reference to Rule 1020 in
paragraph F-9(ii)(a) in order to cross-reference the Rule concerning
information barriers. This is not a substantive amendment; the purpose
of this amendment is to be more specific with respect to the
information in that paragraph. The Exchange simply renamed (b) for ease
of reference.
    The Exchange is proposing to amend OFPA F-11 by similarly removing
references to ``dual'' and replacing references to Rule 793 with Rule
908. The Exchange is proposing to amend Regulation 3 by removing the
reference to the word ``dual.''
    The Exchange also proposes to amend Exchange Rule 908(h) to add an
``or'' to the text of the Exchange Rule 908(h) to make clear that a
permit may be transferred either intra-firm or to an inactive nominee
registered with the Exchange. This proposal is solely to clarify an
existing practice.
    The Exchange proposes to amend Exchange Rule 900.2, Membership and
Foreign Currency Options Applications, to address lapsed applications.
Pursuant to Exchange Rule 900.2, applicants desiring membership in the
Exchange are required to submit information in a form prescribed by the
Membership Department.\12\ The Exchange expends resources in processing
applications for members. The determination to admit a person for
membership in the Exchange is contingent on the information provided in
the application. After a 90 day calendar period has elapsed, the
information provided by the applicant is stale and no longer a
reasonable basis for the Exchange to make a determination on admitting
a person for membership. The Membership Department expends a
considerable amount of resources requesting updates from members and
researching information to make a reasonable determination when an
application is outdated.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ The Membership Department posts the requisite forms on the
Exchange's Web site at http://www.nasdaqomxtrader.com/Trader.aspx?id=membership_phlx. The Membership Department updates
the forms from time to time and makes them available on this Web
site.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This proposal seeks to amend Exchange Rule 900.2 \13\ to require
persons seeking membership to the Exchange to provide all information
and subsequent requests from the Membership Department for information
within a 90 calendar day period or the application lapses. The Exchange
may extend the timeframe for extraordinary purposes or in the instance
that the Exchange makes a request relatively close to the 90-day
timeframe. If an application lapses, the person would be required to
submit a new application.\14\ The Exchange intends that all applicants
be provided an equal opportunity to seek membership to the Exchange.
Additionally, the Exchange would not refund the fee associated with
submitting an application and the applicant would be required to pay a
new fee to resubmit the application.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ The Commission notes that the Exchange proposes to renumber
Rule 900.2(e) as 900.2(f) due to the new proposed Rule 900.2(e).
    \14\ The purpose of the new application would be to update all
information to provide the Membership Department current information
on which to basis [sic] a decision to accept the applicant for
membership. The Exchange intends to file a proposal with the
Commission to amend its Fee Schedule to reflect the lapsed
application fee.
    \15\ The Exchange's Application Fee can be found on the Fee
Schedule located on the Exchange's Web site at http://www.nasdaqomxtrader.com/content/marketregulation/membership/phlx/feesched.pdf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section
6(b) of the Act \16\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section
6(b)(5) of the Act \17\ 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 continuing to allow a Series A-1 permit holder to
affiliate a permit in certain circumstances.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \17\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Exchange Rule 793 was initially proposed \18\ prior to
demutualization when the Exchange had a seat market and at that time it
was more costly to obtain the right to trade on the

Exchange.\19\ Since demutualization, a Series A-1 permit has expanded a
member's ability to gain access to the Exchange at a significantly
lower cost.\20\ Today, there are no restrictions on the number of
permits the Exchange may issue and, assuming the qualifications are
met, a member organization may hold any number of permits, which does
not prevent access to the Exchange.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 21777 (January 9,
1985) [sic], 50 FR 8030, February 21, 1985) [sic] (SR-Phlx-84-14).
    \19\ Prior to demutualization, the Exchange had a limited number
of seats and the dual affiliation allowed for additional access.
There is no fixed number of Series A-1 permits today.
    \20\ The Exchange also allows members on the Exchange's trading
floor to appoint inactive nominees pursuant to By-Law Article XII,
Section 12-10. The inactive nominee allows a Member to have
additional flexibility in obtaining coverage on the trading floor.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that this proposal simplifies the affiliation
process and applies it equally to all members. The Exchange believes
that allowing for affiliation where there is a common ownership and up
to two affiliations is a simple, straightforward process for allowing
access to the Exchange for the purpose of allowing floor traders to
meet Exchange rules and for assistance with staffing issues.
    The Exchange believes that amending the language in Rule 908(h)
will provide members with clarity as to permit transfers. Finally,
requiring applicants to submit their information within a 90 calendar
day period, absent a showing of good cause, provides the Membership
Department with information that can be utilized to make reasonable
decisions concerning membership at the Exchange.

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.

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

    Within 45 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period up to 90 days (i) as the
Commission may designate if it finds such longer period to be
appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission will:
    (A) By order approve or disapprove the proposed rule change, or
    (B) institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

[Docket No. CP20-26-000]

Eastern Gas Transmission and Storage, Inc.; Notice of Request for
Extension of Time

    Take notice that on January 21, 2021, Eastern Gas Transmission and
Storage, Inc.\1\ (Eastern GTS) requested that the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (Commission) grant an extension of time, until
August 22, 2021, to abandon, reconfigure, and relocate storage wells
and related pipelines within its jurisdictional Bridgeport Storage
Field in Harrison County, West Virginia (Project),\2\ as deemed
authorized, effective February 22, 2020. Under the applicable
regulations, the Project was to be completed and made available for
service by February 22, 2021, i.e., within one year of
authorization.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ As of November 1, 2020, Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company
acquired certain companies of Dominion Energy, including Dominion
Energy Transmission, Inc. and has changed its name to Eastern Gas
Transmission and Storage, Inc.
    \2\ Prior Notice of Blanket Certificate Activity, Docket No.
CP20-26-000 (filed December 16, 2019).
    \3\ Pursuant to Section 157.205 of the Commission's regulations,
18 CFR 157.205, a prior notice application is deemed to be
authorized the day after the intervention period lapses if no
protests are filed.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Eastern GTS states that, primarily due to delays related to the
COVID-19 pandemic, as well as weather related delays, Eastern GTS will
be unable to complete all construction activities necessary to complete
the Project within the authorized one-year timeframe. Accordingly,
Eastern GTS requests a six-month extension of time, until August 22,
2021, to complete construction of the Project.
    This notice establishes a 15-calendar day intervention and comment
period deadline. Any person wishing to comment on Columbia's request
for an extension of time may do so. No reply comments or answers will
be considered. If you wish to obtain legal status by becoming a party
to the proceedings for this request, you should, on or before the
comment date stated below, file 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
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10).\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Only motions to intervene from entities that were party to
the underlying proceeding will be accepted. Algonquin Gas
Transmission, LLC, 170 FERC ] 61,144, at P 39 (2020).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As a matter of practice, the Commission itself generally acts on
requests for extensions of time to complete construction for Natural
Gas Act facilities when such requests are contested before order
issuance. For those extension requests that are contested,\5\ the
Commission will aim to issue an order acting on the request within 45
days.\6\ The Commission will address all arguments relating to whether
the applicant has demonstrated there is good cause to grant the
extension.\7\ The Commission will not consider arguments that re-
litigate the issuance of the Certificate Order, including whether the
Commission properly found the project to be in the public convenience
and necessity and whether the Commission's environmental analysis for
the certificate complied with the National Environmental Policy Act.\8\
At the time a pipeline requests an extension of time, orders on
certificates of public convenience and necessity are final and the
Commission will not re-litigate their issuance.\9\ The OEP Director, or
his or her designee, will act on those extension requests that are
uncontested.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Contested proceedings are those where an intervenor disputes
any material issue of the filing. 18 CFR 385.2201(c)(1) (2020).
    \6\ Algonquin Gas Transmission, LLC, 170 FERC 61,144, at P 40
(2020).
    \7\ Id. P 40.
    \8\ Similarly, the Commission will not re-litigate the issuance
of an NGA section 3 authorization, including whether a proposed
project is not inconsistent with the public interest and whether the
Commission's environmental analysis for the permit order complied
with NEPA.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC
20549-0213.

Extension:
    Rule 22d-1; SEC File No. 270-275; OMB Control No. 3235-0310.

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension of the previously approved collection of
information discussed below.
    Rule 22d-1 (17 CFR 270.22d-1) under the Investment Company Act of
1940 (the ``Act'') (15 U.S.C. 80a et seq.) provides registered
investment companies that issue redeemable securities (``funds'') an
exemption from section 22(d) of the Investment Company Act (15 U.S.C.
80a-22(d)) to the extent necessary to permit scheduled variations in or
elimination of the sales load on fund securities for particular classes
of investors or transactions, provided certain conditions are met. The
rule imposes an annual burden per series of a fund of approximately 15
minutes, so that the total annual burden for the approximately 4,735
series of funds that might rely on the rule is estimated to be 1,184
hours.
    The estimate of average burden hours is made solely for the
purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, and is not derived from a
comprehensive or even a representative survey or study. Responses will
not be kept confidential. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a
person is not required to respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid control number.
    Please direct general comments regarding the above information to
the following persons: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive
Office Building, Washington, DC 20503 or email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>

Proposed Amendment of Air Traffic Service (ATS) Route T-331;
Western United States

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: This action proposes to amend Area Navigation (RNAV) Route T-
331 in the western United States. The modification is necessary due to
the planned decommissioning of Clovis, CA, VOR portion of the VOR/
Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) navigation aid (NAVAID), which
provides navigation guidance for portions of affected ATS route V-23.
The decommissioning has rendered portions of V-23 unusable and amending
T-331 helps overcome affected portions of V-23. The Clovis, CA, VOR is
being decommissioned as part of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational
Network (MON) program.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before January 11, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. 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. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the
efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority as it would modify the route structure as necessary to
preserve the safe and efficient flow of air traffic within the National
Airspace System.

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11C, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 13, 2018, and effective
September 15, 2018. FAA Order 7400.11C is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11C lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

Background

    The FAA is planning decommissioning activities for the Clovis, CA,
VOR in 2019 as one of the candidate VORs identified for discontinuance
by the FAA's VOR MON program and listed in the final policy statement
notice, ``Provision of Navigation Services for the Next Generation Air
Transportation System (NextGen) Transition to Performance-Based
Navigation (PBN) (Plan for Establishing a VOR Minimum Operational
Network),'' published in the Federal Register of July 26, 2016 (81 FR
48694), Docket No. FAA-2011-1082. Although the VOR portion of the
Clovis, CA, VORTAC NAVAID is planned for decommissioning, the Tactical
Air Navigation (TACAN) portion is being retained. The ATS route
effected by the Clovis VOR decommissioning is V-23. RNAV route T-331 is
proposed to be amended to overcome the gap to V-23.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by modifying RNAV route T-331. The
proposed route change is outlined below.
    T-331: T-331 currently extends between the NTELL, CA, waypoint (WP)
and the FONIA, ND, FIX. The FAA proposes to extend the route to the
southeast by 15 miles to connect to the FRAME, CA, FIX, which is the
new proposed starting point of the RNAV route. The extension is needed
for navigation in the low altitude structure as V-23 is being gapped in
a separate rulemaking action due to the decommissioning of the Clovis,
CA, VOR. Additionally, five WPs (ESSOH, CA, HIXUP, NV, WAHNZ, ID,
SPECT, MT, and TRUED, MT) and one FIX (CUTVA, NV) are being removed
from the current legal description as they are unnecessary to the RNAV
route description required by policy. The unaffected portion of the
existing route will remain as charted.
    United States RNAV Routes are published in paragraph 6011 of FAA
Order 7400.11C dated August 13, 2018, and effective September 15, 2018,
which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The RNAV Route
listed in this document will be subsequently published in the Order.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
Department of Transportation (DOT) Regulatory Policies and Procedures
(44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation
of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal.
Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule,
when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

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