SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), 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.

Medical Device Accessories

OMB Control Number 0910-0823--Extension

    FDA's guidance document ``Medical Device Accessories--Describing
Accessories and Classification Pathways'' (the Accessories guidance)
\1\ is intended to provide guidance to industry and FDA staff about the
regulation of accessories to medical devices, to describe FDA's policy
concerning the classification of accessories, and to discuss the
application of this policy to devices that are commonly used as
accessories to other medical devices. In addition, the guidance
explains what devices FDA generally considers an ``accessory'' and
describes the processes under section 513(f)(6) of the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360c(f)(6)) to allow
requests for risk- and regulatory control-based classification of
accessories.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The guidance document is available on FDA's website (https://www.fda.gov/ucm/groups/fdagov-public/@fdagov-meddev-gen/documents/document/ucm429672.pdf).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We are requesting OMB approval to revise this information
collection request (ICR) by adding burden estimates for two new
accessory classification pathways created by the FDA Reauthorization
Act of 2017 (FDARA) (Pub. L. 115-52).
    FDARA changed how FDA regulates medical device accessories.
Specifically, section 707 of FDARA added section 513(f)(6) to the
statute and requires that FDA, upon request, classify existing and new
accessories notwithstanding the classification of any other device with
which such accessory is intended to be used. This means that the
classification of an accessory may not be the same as its parent
device, depending on the risks of the accessory when used as intended
and the level of regulatory controls necessary for reasonable assurance
of safety and effectiveness of the accessory. Until an accessory is
distinctly classified, its existing classification will continue to
apply. This provision does not preclude a manufacturer from submitting
a De Novo request for an accessory.
    When the Accessories guidance originally issued, FDA encouraged the
use of the De Novo classification process to allow manufacturers to
request risk- and regulatory control-based classification of
accessories of a new type. FDA's recommendations in the guidance
represented a new information collection as an accessory classification
De Novo request. The information collected for an accessory
classification De Novo request is substantially the same as a De Novo
request (since approved under OMB control number 0910-0844), is
submitted in the same manner, and has the same estimated information
collection burden. The burden estimate associated with ``De Novo
request under 21 U.S.C. 513(f)(2)(i)'' and ``De Novo request under 21
U.S.C. 513(f)(2)(ii),'' in

OMB control number 0910-0844, includes De Novo requests for
accessories. We have determined that the burden estimate for
``Accessory Classification De Novo Requests'' in this ICR (Accessory
Classification Requests; OMB control number 0910-0823) is redundant and
have, therefore, removed it.
    Depending on an accessory's regulatory history, there are different
submission types, tracking mechanisms, and deadlines:
    (1) Existing accessory types are those that have been identified in
a classification regulation or granted marketing authorization as part
of a 510(k), pre-market application (PMA), or De Novo request (approved
under OMB control numbers 0910-0120, 0910-0231, and 0910-0844,
respectively). Manufacturers with marketing authorization for an
existing accessory may request appropriate classification through a new
stand-alone premarket submission (Existing Accessory Request). Upon
request, FDA is required to meet with a manufacturer or importer to
discuss the appropriate classification of an existing accessory prior
to submitting a written request. Existing Accessory Requests will be
initially tracked as ``Q-submissions'' (approved under OMB control
number 0910-0756). FDA has a statutory deadline of 85 calendar days to
respond to an Existing Accessory Request.
    (2) New accessory types are those that have not been granted
marketing authorization as part of a 510(k), PMA, or De Novo request.
Manufacturers may include new accessories into a 510(k) or PMA with the
parent device (New Accessory Request). New Accessory Requests will have
the same deadline as the 510(k) or PMA. Therefore, new accessory types
should follow the applicable Medical Device User Fee Amendments of 2017
deadline for the parent submission. The decision for New Accessory
Requests will be separate from the decision for the marketing
application.
    For both Existing and New Accessory Requests, manufacturers must
request proper classification of their accessory in the submission and
include draft special controls, if requesting classification into class
II. The processes that we use to classify an accessory will be like
those used for De Novo requests. If FDA grants the Accessory Request,
FDA must issue an order establishing a new classification regulation
for the accessory type. If FDA denies the Accessory Request, FDA must
issue a letter with a detailed description and justification for our
determination.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

                                                  Number of    responses      Total       Average

New Accessory Request..........................           10            1           10           40          400
                                                ----------------------------------------------------------------
    Total......................................  ...........  ...........  ...........  ...........        1,000
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of
  information.

    We expect to receive approximately 15 Existing Accessory Requests
and 10 New Accessory Requests per year. Based on estimates by FDA
administrative and technical staff who are familiar with the submission
process for accessory classification requests, we estimate that the
``Average Burden per Response'' for both Existing and New Accessory
Requests will be approximately 40 hours per submission.
    Our estimated burden for the information collection reflects an
overall decrease of 440 hours and an increase of 17 responses. Factors
contributing to the revision of the burden estimate include the
addition of the two new accessory classification pathways created by
FDARA and the removal of redundant burden described earlier in this
document.

Agency Response

    During the public comment period provided, EPA received three
requests from registrants, withdrawing their requests for cancellation
in response to the June 26, 2013, Federal Register notice (78 FR 38319)
(FRL-9388-4) announcing the Agency's receipt of requests for voluntary

IV. Cancellation Order

the provisions for disposition of existing stocks set forth in Unit

V. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?

    Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a pesticide

be canceled. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request,
EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such request in the Federal
Register. Thereafter, following the public comment period, the EPA
Administrator may approve such a request. The notice of receipt for
this action was published for comment in the Federal Register of June

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-53690; File No. SR-PCX-2005-122]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Pacific Exchange, Inc. (n/k/a NYSE
Arca, Inc.); Order Granting Accelerated Approval of Proposed Rule
Change and Amendment No. 1 Thereto and Notice of Filing and Order
Granting Accelerated Approval to Amendment No. 2 to the Proposed Rule
Change Relating to Amending Exchange Delisting Rules to Conform to
Recent Amendments to Commission Rules Regarding Removal From Listing
and Withdrawal From Registration

April 20, 2006.

I. Introduction

    On October 24, 2005, the Pacific Exchange, Inc. (n/k/a NYSE Arca,
Inc.) (``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``SEC'' or ``Commission''), pursuant to section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4
thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to amend Exchange delisting rules
to conform to recent amendments to Commission rules regarding removal
from listing and withdrawal from registration.\3\ On January 6, 2006,
the Exchange filed Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule change.\4\ The
proposed rule change, as amended by Amendment No. 1, was published for
comment in the Federal Register on March 23, 2006.\5\ On March 21,
2006, the Exchange filed Amendment No. 2 to the proposed rule
change.\6\ No comments were received regarding the proposal. This order
approves the proposed rule change, as amended, on an accelerated basis,
publishes notice of Amendment No. 2 to the proposed rule change, and
grants accelerated approval to Amendment No. 2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ On March 6, 2006, the Exchange filed with the Commission a
proposed rule change, which was effective upon filing, to change the
name of the Exchange, as well as several other related entities, to
reflect the recent acquisition of the Pacific Exchange, Inc. by
Archipelago Holdings, Inc. (``Archipelago'') and the merger of NYSE
with Archipelago. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 53615
(April 7, 2006), 71 FR 19226 (April 13, 2006) (File No. SR-PCX-2006-
24). All references herein have been changed to reflect the
aforementioned rule change.
    \4\ In Amendment No. 1, the Exchange made changes to its rule
text to clarify that the delisting procedures set forth therein
apply to instances where the Exchange is considering delisting for
reasons other than those set forth in amended Rule 12d2-2(a) under
the Act.
    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 53497 (March 16,
2006), 71 FR 14763.
    \6\ In Amendment No. 2, the Exchange amended its rule text to
clarify that an issuer that is below the continued listing policies
and standards of the Exchange and seeks to voluntarily apply to
withdraw a class of securities from listing must disclose that it is
no longer eligible for continued listing in its statement of
material facts relating to the reason for withdrawal from listing,
its public press release, and its Web site notice. In addition, the
Exchange revised its rule text to clarify that applications to
voluntarily withdraw a class of securities from listing must be
filed on Form 25 and that the previous rule text would be operative
until April 23, 2006.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change

    Section 12 of the Act \7\ and Rule 12d2-2 thereunder \8\ (``SEC
Rule 12d2-2'') govern the process for the delisting and deregistration
of securities listed on national securities exchanges. Recent
amendments to SEC Rule 12d2-2 (``amended SEC Rule 12d2-2'') and other
Commission rules require the electronic filing of revised Form 25 \9\
on the Commission's Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval
(``EDGAR'') system by exchanges and issuers for all delistings, other
than delistings of standardized options and securities futures, which
are exempted.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78l.
    \8\ 17 CFR 240.12d2-2.
    \9\ 17 CFR 249.25.
    \10\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 52029 (July 14,
2005), 70 FR 42456 (July 22, 2005) (``SEC Rule 12d2-2 Approval
Order'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the case of exchange-initiated delistings, amended SEC Rule
12d2-2(b) states that a national securities exchange may file an
application on Form 25 to strike a class of securities from listing
and/or withdraw the registration of such securities, in accordance with
its rules, if the rules of such exchange, at a minimum, provide for:
    (i) Notice to the issuer of the exchange's decision to delist its
securities;
    (ii) An opportunity for appeal to the exchange's board of
directors, or to a committee designated by the board; and
    (iii) Public notice of the national securities exchange's final
determination to remove the security from listing and/or registration,
by issuing a press release and posting notice on its Web site. Public
notice must be disseminated no fewer than 10 days before the delisting
becomes effective pursuant to amended SEC Rule 12d2-2(d)(1), and must
remain posted on its Web site until the delisting is effective.
    NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.5(m) provides the applicable procedures
when the Exchange considers removing securities from listing. The
Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Arca Equities

Rule 5.5(m) to comply with new requirements set forth in amended SEC
Rule 12d2-2(b). The provisions set forth in current NYSE Arca Equities
Rule 5.5(m), which provide for notification to the issuer in the event
that the Exchange determines to delist the issuer's securities and the
right to appeal the Exchange's determination, satisfy the minimum
provisions set forth in amended SEC Rule 12d2-2(b)(1)(i)-(ii). The
Exchange's rules do not currently provide for the mandated public
notice, and accordingly, proposed NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.5(m)(3)
would require the Exchange to provide public notice, pursuant to
amended SEC Rule 12d2-2(b)(iii). Specifically, the Exchange proposes to
state that, in the event the Exchange makes a final decision to remove
the security of an issuer from listing, the Exchange will take the
following actions, no fewer than ten (10) days before the delisting
becomes effective: (i) An application on Form 25 will be submitted by
the Exchange to the Commission to strike the security from listing and
registration in accordance with Rule 12d2-2; (ii) a copy of such
application will be provided to the issuer in accordance with Rule
12d2-2; and (iii) public notice of the Exchange's final determination
to delist the security will be made via a press release and posting on
the Exchange's website until the delisting is effective. In connection
with this proposed change, the Exchange also proposes to make reference
to the above public notice procedures in the appeal procedures
discussion in new NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.5(m)(2)(f). In addition,
the Exchange proposes to state in NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.5(m)(1)(b)
that the Exchange, after making its initial determination to delist a
security, will notify the issuer in writing, if possible, rather than
by telephone.
    NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.4(b) sets forth the Exchange procedures
that apply when an issuer proposes to withdraw a security from listing
on the Exchange. The Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule
5.4(b) to provide that the Exchange, upon receiving notification by an
issuer of its intent to withdraw its securities from listing and
registration, will post notice of such intent on the Exchange's Web
site by the next business day and will continue to post the notice
until the delisting becomes effective. These proposed changes reflect
the requirements set forth in amended SEC Rule 12d2-2(c). The Exchange
also proposes a new requirement that an issuer submit to the Exchange a
copy of the Form 25 that it has filed with the Commission no later than
the date of such filing.
    In addition, the Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule
5.4(b) to clarify that the issuer, when proposing to withdraw its
securities from listing and registration, must submit to the Exchange a
``letter from an authorized officer of the issuer providing the
specific reasons cited by the board of directors of the issuer for the
proposed withdrawal,'' rather than a ``statement setting forth in
detail the reasons for the proposed withdrawal and the facts in support
thereof.''
    The Exchange also proposes to amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.4(b)
to state that an issuer seeking to voluntarily apply to withdraw a
class of securities from listing on NYSE Arca that has received notice
from NYSE Arca, pursuant to Rule 5.3, Rule 5.5 or otherwise, that it is
below NYSE Arca's continued listing policies and standards, or that is
aware that it is below such continued listing policies and standards
notwithstanding that it has not received such notice from NYSE Arca,
must disclose that it is no longer eligible for continued listing
(identifying the specific continued listing policies and standards with
which it does not comply) in: (i) Its statement of all material facts
relating to the reasons for withdrawal from listing provided to NYSE
Arca along with written notice of its determination to withdraw from
listing required by amended SEC Rule 12d2-2(c)(2)(ii); and (ii) its
public press release and Web site notice required by amended SEC Rule
12d2-2(c)(2)(iii).\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See Amendment No. 2, supra note 6.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Finally, the Exchange has made changes in its rules to clarify that
the Form 25 serves as the application to remove a security from listing
and/or registration and to specify that the proposed changes will be
effective as of April 24, 2006 as required by amended SEC Rule 12d2-2.

III. Commission's Findings and Order Granting Accelerated Approval of
Proposed Rule Change and Amendment Nos. 1 and 2

    The Commission finds that the proposed rule change, as amended, is
consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities exchange
\12\ and, in particular, the requirements of section 6 of the Act.\13\
Specifically, as discussed below, the Commission finds that the
proposal, as amended, is consistent with section 6(b)(5) of the
Act,\14\ which requires, in part, that the rules of an exchange be
designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to
promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation
and coordination with persons engaged in regulating, clearing,
settling, and processing information with respect to, and facilitating
transactions in securities, 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. Further, as
noted in more detail below, the changes being adopted by the Exchange
meet the requirements of amended SEC Rule 12d2-2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ In approving this proposal, the Commission has considered
the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition, and capital
formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78f.
    \14\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

A. Exchange Delisting

    Amended SEC Rule 12d2-2(b) states that a national securities
exchange may file an application on Form 25 to strike a class of
securities from listing and/or withdraw the registration of such
securities, in accordance with its rules, if the rules of such
exchange, at a minimum, provide for notice to the issuer of the
exchange's decision to delist, opportunity for appeal, and public
notice of the exchange's final determination to delist. The Commission
believes that the Exchange's current rules and proposal comply with the
dictates of amended SEC Rule 12d2-2(b).
    The Exchange's rules currently provide the requisite issuer notice
as well as an opportunity for appeal to the Board Appeals Committee, a
committee appointed by the Board of Directors.\15\ In addition, the
proposed rule change will provide for public notice of the Exchange's
final determination to remove the security from listing and/or
registration. The Exchange also proposes to state in NYSE Arca Equities
Rule 5.5(m)(1)(b) that the Exchange, after making its initial
determination that a security should be delisted, will notify the
issuer in writing, if possible, of the decision rather than by
telephone. The Commission notes that this provision is a clarification
of the Exchange's current practices. Overall, the proposed Exchange
amendments should ensure that investors have adequate notice of an
exchange delisting and is consistent with the protection of investors
under section 6(b)(5) of the Act.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ See NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.5(m)(2)(c).
    \16\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).

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

B. Issuer Voluntary Delisting

    The Exchange proposes to set forth in its Exchange rules the
general requirements of amended SEC Rule 12d2-2(c) regarding issuer
voluntary delisting. Accordingly, the Exchange proposes to amend NYSE
Arca Equities Rule 5.4(b) to provide that the Exchange, upon receiving
notification by an issuer of its intent to withdraw its securities from
listing and registration, will post notice of such intent on the
Exchange's Web site by the next business day and will continue to post
the notice until the delisting becomes effective. The Commission
believes that the proposal will better inform issuers of the
requirements for voluntary delisting of their securities under the
Exchange's rules and Federal securities laws.
    The proposal also sets forth a new requirement not in amended SEC
Rule 12d2-2 that would require the issuer to submit to the Exchange a
copy of the Form 25 that the issuer has filed with the Commission no
later than the date of such filing. The Commission believes that this
requirement will allow the Exchange to be fully informed of the filing
of a Form 25 and be prepared to take timely action to delist the
security in accordance with the filing of the Form.
    In addition, the Exchange proposes to revise NYSE Arca Equities
Rule 5.4(b) to require an issuer proposing to withdraw a security from
listing to submit to the Exchange a letter from an authorized officer
of the issuer providing the specific reasons cited by the board of
directors of the issuer for the proposed withdrawal. The Commission
believes that this requirement may help ensure that the decision to
delist a security voluntarily has been well-considered by the issuer's
board.
    The Exchange also proposes to amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.4(b)
to state that an issuer seeking to voluntarily apply to withdraw a
class of securities from listing on the Exchange that has received
notice from the Exchange, pursuant to Rule 5.3, Rule 5.5 or otherwise,
that it is below the Exchange's continued listing policies and
standards, or that is aware that it is below such continued listing
policies and standards notwithstanding that it has not received such
notice from the Exchange, must disclose that it is no longer eligible
for continued listing (identifying the specific continued listing
policies and standards with which it does not comply) in: (i) Its
statement of all material facts relating to the reasons for withdrawal
from listing provided to the Exchange along with written notice of its
determination to withdraw from listing required by amended SEC Rule
12d2-2(c)(2)(ii); and (ii) its public press release and Web site notice
required by amended SEC Rule 12d2-2(c)(2)(iii).\17\ The Commission
believes that this requirement will allow shareholders to be informed
and aware that the issuer has failed to meet Exchange listing standards
and is voluntarily delisting with the consent of the Exchange. Issuers
will therefore not be permitted to delist voluntarily without public
disclosure of their noncompliance with Exchange listing standards.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ See Amendment No. 2, supra note 6.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

C. Accelerated Approval of Proposed Rule Change and Amendment Nos. 1
and 2

    Pursuant to section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\18\ the Commission may not
approve any proposed rule change, or amendment thereto, prior to the
30th day after the date of publication of notice of the filing thereof,
unless the Commission finds good cause for so doing and publishes its
reasons for so finding. The Commission hereby finds good cause for
approving the proposed rule change, as amended, prior to the 30th day
after publishing notice of the proposed rule change and Amendment Nos.
1 and 2 in the Federal Register. In the SEC Rule 12d2-2 Approval Order,
the Commission stated that the compliance date of the amendments is
April 24, 2006.\19\ In addition, no comments were received on the
proposal, as originally published.\20\ Accelerated approval of the
proposal, as amended, would enable the Exchange's amended rules to
become operative by the compliance date set forth by the Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
    \19\ See SEC Rule 12d2-2 Approval Order, supra note 10.
    \20\ See note 5, supra.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission further finds good cause for approving Amendment No.
2 to the proposal, prior to the 30th day after publishing notice in the
Federal Register. In Amendment No. 2, the Exchange amended its rule
text to clarify that an issuer seeking to voluntarily delist that has
received notice from the Exchange that it is below continued listing
policies and standards, or that is aware that it is below such
continued listing policies and standards notwithstanding that it has
not received such notice from the Exchange, must disclose its status.
As previously discussed, the revisions made to the proposal in
Amendment No. 2 will allow shareholders to be informed and aware that
the issuer has failed to meet Exchange listing standards and is
voluntarily delisting with the consent of the Exchange. The Commission
believes that granting accelerated approval of Amendment No. 2 will
permit the Exchange to implement this new provision as expeditiously as
possible, to the benefit of investors. In addition, the Commission
believes that these revisions do not raise new regulatory issues.
    Accordingly, pursuant to section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\21\ the
Commission finds good cause to approve the proposed rule change, as
amended, prior to the thirtieth day after notice of the proposed rule
change and Amendment Nos. 1 and 2 are published in the Federal
Register.
