DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Railroad Administration

[Docket Number FRA-2007-28812]

Petition for Waiver of Compliance

    Under part 211 of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), this
provides the public notice that by a letter dated March 23, 2018 (and
amended April 30, 2018), BNSF Railway Company (BNSF) petitioned the
Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) for an extension of its waiver of
compliance from certain provisions of the Federal railroad safety
regulations contained at 49 CFR part 232. FRA assigned the petition
Docket Number FRA-2007-28812.
    BNSF originally received conditional relief in 2008 from 49 CFR
232.205, Class I brake test-initial terminal inspection, and 49 CFR
part 215, Freight car safety standards, for freight cars received in
interchange at the United States/Mexico border crossing in Eagle Pass,
TX, to permit required inspections to be conducted at Ryan's Ruin and
Horan Siding, 14 miles north of the international border at Eagle Pass.
BNSF's relief was extended for an additional five years in a decision
letter dated March 26, 2013. In support of its present petition to
extend its relief, BNSF states that the change in inspection point has
proven a more efficient and safer operating environment.
    A copy of the petition, as well as any written communications
concerning the petition, is available for review online at
www.regulations.gov and in person at the U.S. Department of
Transportation's (DOT) Docket Operations Facility, 1200 New Jersey

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 180

[EPA-HQ-OPP-2010-1079; FRL-9344-9]

Thiamethoxam; Pesticide Tolerances; Technical Correction

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule; technical correction.

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

SUMMARY: EPA issued a final rule in the Federal Register of March 2,
2012, concerning the establishment of tolerances for the insecticide
thiamethoxam on multiple commodities. This document is being issued to
correct various typographical omissions, specifically, the omission of
previously established tolerances for caneberry subgroup 13-07A;
mustard, seed; onion, dry bulb; papaya; safflower, seed; and nut, tree,
group 14.

DATES: This final rule is effective May 2, 2012.

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under docket
identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-OPP-2010-1079. All documents in the
docket are listed in the docket index available in http://www.regulations.gov. Although listed in the index, some information is
not publicly available, e.g., Confidential Business Information (CBI)
or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain
other material, such as copyrighted material, is not placed on the
Internet and will be publicly available only in hard copy form.
Publicly available docket materials are available in the electronic
docket at http://www.regulations.gov, or, if only available in hard
copy, at the OPP Regulatory Public Docket in Rm. S-4400, One Potomac
Yard (South Bldg.), 2777 S. Crystal Dr., Arlington, VA. The Docket
Facility is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday,
excluding legal holidays. The Docket Facility telephone number is (703)
305-5805.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Julie Chao, Registration Division
(7505P), Office of Pesticide Programs, Environmental Protection Agency,
1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington, DC 20460-0001; telephone
number:<PHONE_NUMBER>; email address<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Does this action apply to me?

    The Agency included in the final rule a list of those who may be
potentially affected by this action. If you have questions regarding
the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the
person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

II. What does this technical correction do?

    This technical correction reinstates previously established
tolerances for the insecticide thiamethoxam in or on: Caneberry
subgroup 13-07A at 0.35 parts per million (ppm); mustard, seed at 0.02
ppm; nut, tree, group 14 at 0.02 ppm; onion, dry bulb at 0.03 ppm;
papaya at 0.40 ppm; and safflower, seed at 0.02 ppm. These tolerances
were inadvertently deleted from the table in paragraph (a) under 40 CFR
Part 180.565 in the final rule establishing new tolerances for
thiamethoxam on several commodities that published in the Federal
Register of March 2, 2012 (77 FR 12731) (FRL-9331-8).

III. Why is this correction issued as a final rule?

    Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B), provides that, when an Agency for good cause finds that
notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary or contrary
to the public interest, the Agency may issue a final rule without
providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. EPA has
determined that there is good cause for making this technical
correction final without prior proposal and opportunity for comment,
because the tolerances being reinstated in the table in paragraph (a)
of 40 CFR 180.565 are permanent tolerances that were inadvertently
omitted from that table in the course of a rulemaking that amended the
table to establish several new tolerances. As part of that rulemaking,
EPA prepared a revised table listing the current and new tolerances. In
preparing the revised table, that contains tolerances on over 80
commodities, EPA inadvertently overlooked the tolerances identified in
Unit II. It is clear on the face of the rulemaking document that the
omission of the tolerances identified in Unit II

was a typographical error because the document in no place mentions, or
suggests, an intention of removing those tolerances. Public comment is
unnecessary on an action to correct such a clear inadvertent error. EPA
finds that this constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B).

IV. Do any of the statutory and executive order reviews apply to this
action?

    This final rule corrects a technical error and does not otherwise
change the requirements in the final rule. As a technical correction,
this action is not subject to the statutory and Executive Order review
requirements. For information about the statutory and Executive Order
review requirements as they related to the final rule, see Unit IV. in
the Federal Register of March 2, 2012.

V. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the Agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to
the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report
containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate,
the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the
United States prior to publication of this final rule in the Federal
Register. This final rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
U.S.C. 804(2).

List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 180

    Environmental protection, Administrative practice and procedure,
Agricultural commodities, Pesticides and pests, Reporting and
recordkeeping requirements.

    Dated: April 18, 2012.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Nasdaq PHLX LLC; Notice of Filing
and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Amend Various
Phlx Rules Related to Routing, Remote Specialist, and Assistant Lead
Market Maker

April 27, 2020.
    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 April 15, 2020, Nasdaq PHLX LLC (``Phlx'' or ``Exchange'') filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the
proposed rule change as described in Items I and II 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 Rules at Options 2, Section 3,
Allocation Application, Allocation, Reallocation, Transfer and
Voluntary Resignation''; Options 2, Section 4, Obligations of Market
Makers; Options 2, Section 11, Lead Market Maker Appointments; Options
5, Section 4, Order Routing; Options 8, Section 11, Floor Market Maker
and Lead Market Maker Appointment; Options 8, Section 25, Floor
Allocation; and Options 8, Section 39, Option Minor Rule Violations and
Order and Decorum Regulations at E-2, Allocation, Time Stamping,
Matching and Access to Matched Trades.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
website at http://nasdaqphlx.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 Rules at Options 2, Section 3,
Allocation Application, Allocation, Reallocation, Transfer and
Voluntary Resignation''; Options 2, Section 4, Obligations of Market
Makers; Options 2, Section 11, Lead Market Maker Appointments; Options
5, Section 4, Order Routing; Options 8, Section 11, Floor Market Maker
and Lead Market Maker Appointment; Options 8, Section 25, Floor
Allocation; and Options 8, Section 39, Option Minor Rule Violations and
Order and Decorum Regulations at E-2, Allocation, Time Stamping,
Matching and Access to Matched Trades. Each change is described below.
Remote Specialist
    The Exchange proposes to amend Options 2, Section 4, Obligations of
Market Maker, to replace rule text currently within Options 2, Section
4(b)(2) with more precise rule text. Currently, the rule text in the
last two sentences of Options 2, Section 4(b)(2) provides, ``An RSQT
shall not submit option quotations in eligible options to which such
RSQT is assigned to the extent that the RSQT is also approved as a
Remote Lead Market Maker in the same options. An RSQT may only trade in
a market making capacity in classes of options in which he is assigned
or approved as a Remote Lead Market Maker.'' The Exchange would like to
replace this text with more precise language which it believes more
clearly conveys the meaning of those sentences. The Exchange proposes
to state, ``An RSQT may not simultaneously quote both as RSQT and
Remote Lead Market

Maker in a particular security. If an RSQT is a Remote Lead Market
Maker in a particular security, the Remote Lead Marker Maker must make
a market as a Remote Lead Market Maker and may not make a market as an
RSQT in that particular security.'' This rule text, which the Exchange
believes is clear and precise, is taken from the Order which approved
this rule text.\3\ This amendment is a non-substantive rule change
which is merely intended to bring greater clarity to the obligation of
an RSQT who is also the Remote Lead Market Maker in a particular
security.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 63717 (January 14,
2011), 76 FR 4141at 4143 (January 24, 2011) (SR-Phlx-2010-145)
(``Order Granting Accelerated Approval to a Proposed Rule Change, as
Modified by Amendment No. 1 Thereto, Relating to the Establishment
of Remote Specialists'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assistant Lead Market Maker
    The Exchange proposes to amend rule text within Options 2, Section
3, Allocation Application, Allocation, Reallocation, Transfer and
Voluntary Resignation; Options 2, Section 11, Lead Market Maker
Appointments; Options 8, Section 11, Floor Market Maker and Lead Market
Maker Appointment; Options 8, Section 25, Floor Allocation; and Options
8, Section 39, Option Minor Rule Violations and Order and Decorum
Regulations at E-2, Allocation, Time Stamping, Matching and Access to
Matched Trades to replace the term ``assistant'' with ``back-up.'' This
amendment is non-substantive. The Exchange believes that the word
``back-up'' is a more precise term that emphasizes that the Market
Maker must be able to take on all the duties of the Lead Market Maker.
No obligations are being amended with respect to this role.
Routing
    Phlx previously filed a rule proposal \4\ to amend this Options 5,
Section 4, ``Order Routing,'' which was previously numbered Rule
1093.\5\ At this time, the Exchange proposes to remove two sentences
within Options 5, Section 4 for FIND and SRCH Orders. These sentences
were inadvertently not removed in the Prior Rule Change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 87811 (December 20,
2019), 84 FR 72017 (December 30, 2019) (SR-Phlx-2019-56) (``Prior
Rule Change'').
    \5\ Phlx has recently renumbered its rules in connection with a
Rulebook relocation to a new Rulebook shell. See SR-Phlx-2020-03.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

FIND Orders
    The Exchange proposes to delete a sentence within FIND Orders at
Options 5, Section 4(a)(iii)(B)(5) which states, ``If during the Route
Timer, the ABBO moves and crosses the FIND Order, any new interest
arrives opposite the FIND Order that is marketable against the FIND
Order will trade at the FIND Order price.'' This sentence is incorrect
in that it contradicts a sentence at the end of Options 5, Section
4(a)(iii)(B)(5) which states, ``If during the Route Timer any new
interest arrives opposite the FIND Order that is marketable against the
FIND Order such interest will trade against the FIND Order at the ABBO
price unless the ABBO is improved to a price which crosses the FIND
Order's already displayed price, in which case the incoming order will
execute at the previous ABBO price as the away market crossed a
displayed price.'' The current last sentence within Options 5, Section
4(a)(iii)(B)(5) accurately describes the scenario for new interest
arriving opposite the FIND Order that is marketable against the FIND
Order.

By way of example, assume a PHLX BBO: 1 x 1.25 and a CBOE BBO: 1.05
x 1.15.

If a FIND Order was entered to Buy 1 @1.20
FIND Order to buy is exposed on Phlx market data feeds @1.15 (then
ABBO) and displayed on OPRA at 1.14
Route Timer begins
During Route Timer a Limit Order to sell 1 @1.15 arrives
CBOE adjusts its BBO to 1.05 x 1.10
The Route Timer ends and the Find Order will trade with the sell
Limit Order at 1.15 in this example.

The incorrect sentence provides that if the ABBO moves and crosses the
FIND Order, any new interest that arrives opposite the FIND Order,
which is marketable against the FIND Order, will trade at the FIND
Order Price. This is incorrect because the new interest would trade
against the FIND Order at the ABBO price, unless the ABBO is improved
to a price which crosses the FIND Order's already displayed price, in
which case the incoming order will execute at the previous ABBO price
as the away market crossed a displayed price. The current sentence is
incorrect because the FIND Order will not trade at the FIND Order price
as noted in the first quoted sentence, rather it would execute at the
previous ABBO price because the away market crossed a displayed price.
The Exchange would display the order one MPV inferior to the away
market offer, at 1.14. The FIND Order would execute at 1.15 which was
the previous ABBO bid, as the away market crossed the displayed price
of 1.14. Today, the System does not execute this trade at the FIND
Order price as incorrectly noted. The Exchange would not trade-through
the ABBO in this circumstance, Phlx would be bound by the Cboe's price
in the above example. This specific rule text does not properly reflect
the System operation. The rule text which provides that if the away
market crossed Phlx's already displayed price the FIND Order will
execute at the previous ABBO price, reflects the current System
handling.
    The Exchange proposes to correct the rule text by deleting the
contradictory sentence. The remaining rule text will properly reflects
the current System handling. Further, the Exchange proposes to relocate
the correct sentence within Options 5, Section 4(a)(iii)(B)(5) to the
same location as the deleted text to improve the flow of information
presented within Options 5, Section 4(a)(iii)(B)(5).
SRCH Orders
    The Exchange proposes a similar correction to the SRCH Orders rule
text. The Exchange proposes to similarly remove rule a contradictory
sentence within current Options 5, Section 4(a)(iii)(C)(4) which
provides, ``If during the Route Timer, the ABBO moves and crosses the
SRCH Order, any new interest arrives opposite the SRCH Order that is
marketable against the SRCH Order will trade at the SRCH Order price.''
Also, the Exchange proposes to replicate the last sentence of Options
5, Section 4(a)(iii)(C)(6), which contains the accurate scenario for
new interest arriving opposite the SRCH Order that is marketable
against the SRCH Order, to the same location as the deleted text within
Options 5, Section 4(a)(iii)(C)(4) to improve the flow of information
presented within that paragraph. The Exchange proposes to retain the
exact sentence within Options 5, Section 4(a)(iii)(C)(6) because it
applies equally to the scenarios described within Options 5, Section
4(a)(iii)(C)(6).
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section
6(b) of the Act,\6\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,\7\ in particular, in that it is designed to promote
just and equitable principles of trade and to protect investors and the
public interest.

Remote Specialist
    The Exchange's proposal to amend Options 2, Section 4, Obligations
of Market Maker, to replace rule text currently within Options 2,
Section 4(b)(2) with more precise rule text is consistent with the Act.
The proposed new rule text is taken from the order approving the rule
and more clearly explains the obligation of an RSQT who

is also the Remote Lead Market Maker in a particular security. This
rule change is non-substantive and will benefit market participants by
bringing greater clarity to the rule text.
Assistant Lead Market Maker
    The Exchange's proposal to amend rule text within Options 2,
Section 3, Allocation Application, Allocation, Reallocation, Transfer
and Voluntary Resignation; Options 2, Section 11, Lead Market Maker
Appointments; Options 8, Section 11, Floor Market Maker and Lead Market
Maker Appointment; Options 8, Section 25, Floor Allocation; and Options
8, Section 39, Option Minor Rule Violations and Order and Decorum
Regulations at E-2, Allocation, Time Stamping, Matching and Access to
Matched Trades, to replace the term ``assistant'' with ``back-up'' is
consistent with the Act. This amendment is non-substantive. The
Exchange believes that the word ``back-up'' is a more precise term that
emphasizes that the Market Maker must be able to take on all the duties
of the Lead Market Maker and will benefit market participants by
bringing greater clarity to the rule text. No obligations are being
amended with respect to this role.
Routing
    With respect to the amendments to the Order Routing Rule, the
Exchange's removal of two contradictory sentences is consistent with
the Act because this will bring clarity and transparency to the rule.
Further, relocating the correct rule text within the FIND and adding
the correct rule text within SRCH rule language are non-substantive
amendments which will improve the flow of information.

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.
Remote Specialist
    The Exchange's proposal to amend Options 2, Section 4, Obligations
of Market Maker'' to replace rule text currently within Options 2,
Section 4(b)(2) with more precise rule text does not impose an undue
burden on competition. This non-substantive amendment more clearly
explains the obligation of an RSQT who is also the Remote Lead Market
Maker in a particular security.
Assistant Lead Market Maker
    The Exchange's proposal to amend rule text within Options 2,
Section 3, Allocation Application, Allocation, Reallocation, Transfer
and Voluntary Resignation; Options 2, Section 11, Lead Market Maker
Appointments; Options 8, Section 11, Floor Market Maker and Lead Market
Maker Appointment; Options 8, Section 25, Floor Allocation; and Options
8, Section 39, Option Minor Rule Violations and Order and Decorum
Regulations at E-2, Allocation, Time Stamping, Matching and Access to
Matched Trades, to replace the term ``assistant'' with ``back-up'' does
not impose an undue burden on competition. This non-substantive
amendment will bring greater clarity to the rule text. No obligations
are being amended with respect to this role.
Routing
    The Exchange believes that deleting the two contradictory sentences
will bring greater clarity to the rule. Further, relocating the correct
rule text within the FIND and adding the correct rule text within the
SRCH language is a non-substantive amendment which will improve the
flow of information.

2. 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 \8\ and
subparagraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b-4 thereunder.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
requires the Exchange to give the Commission written notice of its
intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief
description and text of the proposed rule change, at least five
business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. The
Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \10\ normally
does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the
filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\11\ the Commission
may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange requests
that the Commission waive the 30-day operative delay so that it may
immediately remove incorrect and contradictory sentences in Phlx
Options 5, Section 4, to bring greater clarity and transparency to the
Phlx routing rules. The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day
operative delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the
public interest. Accordingly, the Commission waives the 30-day
operative delay and designates the proposed rule change operative upon
filing.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    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 necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
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.
