SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-89285; File No. SR-CBOE-2020-062]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Cboe Exchange, Inc.; Notice of
Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change To Amend
the Silexx Trading Platform Fees Schedule

July 10, 2020.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on July 1, 2020, Cboe Exchange, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or ``Cboe
Options'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II,
and III below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The
Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the
proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    Cboe Exchange, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or ``Cboe Options'') proposes
to amend the Silexx trading platform (``Silexx'' or the ``platform'')
Fees Schedule. The text of the proposed rule change is provided in
Exhibit 5.
    The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the
Exchange's website (http://www.cboe.com/AboutCBOE/CBOELegalRegulatoryHome.aspx), at the Exchange's Office of the
Secretary, 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 the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The purpose of this filing is to amend the Silexx Fees Schedule to
(1) waive certain fees for FLEX and Cboe Silexx, (2) introduce a new
``CAT File'' fee and (3) eliminate obsolete references to an expired
upgrade opportunity, effective July 1, 2020.
    By way of background, the Silexx platform consists of a ``front-
end'' order entry and management trading platform (also referred to as
the ``Silexx terminal'') for listed stocks and options that supports
both simple and complex orders,\3\ and a ``back-end'' platform which
provides a connection to the infrastructure network. From the Silexx
platform (i.e., the collective front-end and back-end platform), a
Silexx user

has the capability to send option orders to U.S. options exchanges,
send stock orders to U.S. stock exchanges (and other trading centers),
input parameters to control the size, timing, and other variables of
their trades, and also includes access to real-time options and stock
market data, as well as access to certain historical data. The Silexx
platform is designed so that a user may enter orders into the platform
to send to an executing broker (including Trading Permit Holders
(``TPHs'')) of its choice with connectivity to the platform, which
broker will then send the orders to Cboe Options (if the broker is a
TPH) or other U.S. exchanges (and trading centers) in accordance with
the user's instructions. With the exception of Silexx FLEX and Cboe
Silexx, users cannot directly route orders through any of the current
versions of Silexx to an exchange or trading center nor is the platform
integrated into or directly connected to Cboe Option's System. The
Exchange recently made available additional versions of the Silexx
platform, Silexx FLEX and Cboe Silexx, which do support the trading of
FLEX and non-FLEX Options, respectively, and allows authorized Users
with direct access to the Exchange. The Silexx front-end and back-end
platforms are a software application that are installed locally on a
user's desktop. Silexx grants users licenses to use the platform, and a
firm or individual does not need to be a TPH to license the platform.
Use of Silexx is completely optional.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The platform also permits users to submit orders for
commodity futures, commodity options and other non-security products
to be sent to designated contract markets, futures commission
merchants, introducing brokers or other applicable destinations of
the users' choice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Additional Functionality Fee Waiver
    The Exchange first proposes to waive the following fees for
additional functionality users may purchase for FLEX and Cboe Silexx:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Additional functionality for        Functionality
           platforms                  description              Fee

                                 Silexx platform for
                                 routing.
Staged Orders, Drop Copies,     Ability to receive      $250/month/FIX

 Functionality for FIX           receive ``drop

                                 fill messages, and
                                 route orders to
                                 executing brokers.
Staged Orders, Drop Copies,     Ability to receive      $500/month/FIX
 and Order Routing               staged orders,          Connection.
 Functionality for FIX           receive ``drop

                                 route orders to

                                 through a third-party
                                 FIX router.
Equity Order Reports (paid by   Daily transmission of   $250/month/
 the trading firm).              equity order reports.   trading firm.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Particularly, the above additional functionality permits users to
add features in accordance with their use of the Silexx platform. The
Exchange offers each type of additional functionality as a convenience
and use of each type of additional functionality is discretionary and
not compulsory. More specifically, the crossing functionality provides
users who choose to regularly cross orders with access to additional
crossing order tickets. The port fee applies to connections from users
to executing brokers, which provides users with access to an executing
broker with connectivity to the Silexx platform for routing. Financial
Information eXchange (``FIX'') is an industry-standard, non-proprietary
API that permits market participants to connect to exchanges. FIX
connectivity provides users with the ability to receive ``drop copy''
order fill messages from their executing brokers. These fill messages
allow customers to update positions, risk calculations, and streamline
back-office functions. Additionally, FIX connections can be updated to
permit the platform to receive orders sent from another system and then
route these orders through the platform for execution (staged orders)
as well as provide users with the ability to route orders in various
ways to executing brokers (such as designation of a market to which the
broker is to route an order received from the platform and use of a
broker's ``smart router'' functionality). Some users have connections
to third-party FIX routers, who currently normalize the format of
messages of their client. To the extent a FIX router has a connection
to the Silexx platform, users that also have connections to these
routers may elect to receive staged orders, drop copies, and order
routing functionality through a fix router. Additionally, the Silexx
platform permits users to elect to receive daily transmission of equity
order reports related to order users submit through the platform. As
noted above, the Exchange recently adopted Silexx FLEX and Cboe Silexx.
The Exchange wishes to waive the fees for these additional types of
functionality \4\ as an incentive to market participants to start or
continue using these new Silexx platforms as trading tools on their
trading desks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Exchange is not waiving Additional Functionality fees
for API, PULSe Routing Network via Silexx or Market Data.
Particularly, the API functionality is not applicable or available
for Silexx Flex or Cboe Silexx and the PULSe Network via Silexx fee
is already only applicable to non-Silexx (and non-PULSe)
workstations. The Exchange lastly does not wish to waive fees for
market data.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAT File Fee
    The Exchange next wishes to adopt a fee for CAT Files.
Particularly, Silexx intends to make Consolidated Audit Trail
(``CAT'')-formatted files available to Silexx users for orders
processed by the user via Silexx applications. Users may also elect to
have Silexx, which is a CAT Reporter Agent, submit these files to CAT
on their behalf. Similar to the fee assessed for Equity Order
Reports,\5\ the Exchange proposes to adopt a monthly fee of $250 per
CAT Industry Member ID (``IMID''),\6\ payable by the trading firm for
CAT Files. The Exchange also proposes to waive this fee for Silexx FLEX
and Cboe Silexx.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The Equity Order Reports fee is assessed to Silexx users
that elect to receive daily transmission of Order Audit Trail System
(``OATS'') reports for its orders submitted through their Silexx
platform.
    \6\ CAT uses the IMID to determine the firm for which data is
submitted and to facilitate event linkages within a firm and between
venues.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange lastly proposes to eliminate obsolete language in the
``Silexx Platform Version'' table. Particularly, the notes section
provides that: ``All users of Basic may be upgraded to Pro at no
additional cost through May 31, 2020''. As that date has passed, and
the free upgrade is no longer available, the Exchange proposes to
delete that language in its entirety to avoid potential confusion.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'') and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular,
the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\7\ Specifically, the
Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the
Section

6(b)(5) \8\ requirements 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,
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. Additionally, the Exchange
believes the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(4) of
the Act,\9\ which requires that Exchange rules provide for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among
its Trading Permit Holders and other persons using its facilities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In particular, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change to
waive certain additional functionality fees for Silexx FLEX and Cboe
Silexx is reasonable because users using the functionality for these
newer platforms would not be subject to such fees. The Exchange
believes not assessing these fees for Silexx FLEX and Cboe Silexx also
serves as an incentive to market participants to start using these
recently adopted Silexx platforms as additional trading tools on their
trading desks. Moreover, the Exchange notes that Silexx FLEX and Cboe
Silexx are available to all market participants at no cost.\10\ The
proposal is equitable and not unfairly discriminatory as it applies to
all users of Silexx FLEX and Cboe Silexx uniformly. Additionally, the
Exchange notes that use of each version of the platform, including each
type of additional functionality, is discretionary and not compulsory.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See Silexx Fees Schedule, Silexx Platform Version Table.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes the proposed monthly fee for CAT Files is
reasonable as it is the same rate for other similar reports (i.e.,
Equity Order Reports). Additionally, the Exchange believes the proposed
fee is reasonable as the Exchange believes it is substantially lower
than the cost assessed by third-party vendors for similar CAT files.
The proposal is equitable and not unfairly discriminatory as it applies
to all users other than Silexx FLEX and Cboe Silexx. As discussed
above, the Exchange believes waiving additional functionality fees,
including the proposed fee for CAT files, for Silexx FLEX and Cboe
Silexx is reasonable, equitable and not unfairly discriminatory as such
platforms are new and the Exchange wishes to incentivize their use to
market participants. Finally, the Exchange notes receipt of the CAT
files is completely voluntary and not compulsory.
    Lastly, the Exchange believes its proposal to eliminate language
regarding an outdated free upgrade alleviates potential confusion and
maintains clarity in the fees schedule, thereby removing impediments
to, and perfecting, the mechanism of a free and open market and a
national market system, and, in general, protecting investors and the
public interest.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    Cboe Options does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange believes that
the proposed rule change will not impose any burden on intramarket
competition because the proposed rule changes apply to all similarly
situated users of Silexx uniformly. The Exchange notes that each
additional type of Silexx functionality, including the new CAT Files,
are available to all market participants, and users have discretion to
determine which, if any, types of functionality and reports to
purchase.
    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule changes will
impose any burden on intermarket competition that is not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act because the
proposed change applies only to Cboe Options. To the extent that the
proposed changes make Cboe Options a more attractive marketplace for
market participants at other exchanges, such market participants are
welcome to become Cboe Options market participants.

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

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

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

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \11\ and paragraph (f) of Rule 19b-4 \12\
thereunder. 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 will institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or
disapproved.

[EPA-R09-OAR-2021-0222; FRL-10022-80-Region 9]

Air Plan Approval; California; Mojave Desert Air Quality
Management District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
approve a revision to the Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District
(MDAQMD or ``District'') portion of the California State Implementation
Plan (SIP). This revision concerns the regulation of emissions of
volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from wood products coating
operations. We are proposing to approve a local rule to regulate these
emission sources under the Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act). We are
taking comments on this proposal and plan to follow with a final
action.

I. The State's Submittal

A. What rule did the State submit?

    Table 1 lists the rule addressed by this proposal with the date
that it was amended by the local air agency and submitted by the
California Air Resources Board (CARB).

                                             Table 1--Submitted Rule
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
           Local agency                Rule No.              Rule title               Amended        Submitted
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MDAQMD............................            1114  Wood Products Coating             08/24/2020      11/18/2020
                                                     Operations.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On March 12, 2021, the EPA determined that the submittal for MDAQMD
Rule 1114 met the completeness criteria in 40 CFR part 51 Appendix V,
which must be met before formal EPA review.

B. Are there other versions of this rule?

    We approved an earlier version of Rule 1114 into the SIP on July 2,
2019 (84 FR 31682). The MDAQMD adopted revisions to the SIP-approved
version on August 24, 2020, and CARB submitted them to us on November
18, 2020. If we take final action to approve the August 24, 2020
version of Rule 1114, this version will replace the previously approved
version of the rule in the SIP.

C. What is the purpose of the submitted rule revisions?

    Emissions of VOCs contribute to the production of ground-level
ozone, smog and particulate matter, which harm human health and the
environment. Section 110(a) of the CAA requires states to submit
regulations that control VOC emissions. Rule 1114 establishes VOC
content limits for coatings and adhesives used on new wood surface
coated room furnishings (``products''), and those used for refinishing,
repairing, preserving or restoring wood products. It also establishes
requirements for coatings application methods, surface preparation and
cleanup, add-on control systems, and work practices. The District
revised Rule 1114 by reducing the VOC content limit for high solids
stains, reducing the allowable volume of coatings and/or strippers used
in order to qualify for an exemption to the rule, and incorporating
work practice standards and implementation plans consistent with the
EPA's Control Techniques Guideline (CTG) for this source category.\1\
The EPA's technical support document (TSD) has more information about
this rule.

Furniture Manufacturing Operations'' (EPA-453/R-96-007, April 1996).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. The EPA's Evaluation and Action

A. How is the EPA evaluating the rule?

    Rules in the SIP must be enforceable (see CAA section 110(a)(2)),
must not interfere with applicable requirements concerning attainment
and reasonable further progress or other CAA requirements (see CAA
section 110(l)), and must not modify certain SIP control requirements
in nonattainment areas without ensuring equivalent or greater emissions
reductions (see CAA section 193).
    Generally, SIP rules must require reasonably available control
technology (RACT) for each category of sources covered by a CTG
document as well as each major source of VOCs in ozone nonattainment
areas classified as Moderate or above (see CAA section 182(b)(2)). The
MDAQMD regulates an ozone nonattainment area classified as a Severe-15
nonattainment area for the 2008 8-hour ozone national ambient air
quality standard (NAAQS), and as a Severe-15 nonattainment area for the
2015 8-hour ozone NAAQS (40 CFR 81.305). Therefore, this rule must
implement RACT.
    Guidance and policy documents that we used to evaluate
enforceability, revision/relaxation and rule stringency requirements
for the applicable criteria pollutants include the following:
    1. ``State Implementation Plans; General Preamble for the
Implementation of Title I of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990,'' 57
FR 13498 (April 16, 1992); 57 FR 18070 (April 28, 1992).
    2. ``Issues Relating to VOC Regulation Cutpoints, Deficiencies, and
Deviations,'' EPA, May 25, 1988 (the Bluebook, revised January 11,
1990).
    3. ``Guidance Document for Correcting Common VOC & Other Rule
Deficiencies,'' EPA Region 9, August 21, 2001 (the Little Bluebook).
    4. ``Control Techniques Guidelines: Control of Volatile Organic
Compound Emissions from Wood Furniture Manufacturing Operations.'' EPA
453/R-96-007, April 1996.

B. Does the rule meet the evaluation criteria?

    This rule meets CAA requirements and is consistent with relevant
guidance regarding enforceability, RACT, and SIP revisions. The TSD has
more information on our evaluation.

C. Public Comment and Proposed Action

    As authorized in section 110(k)(3) of the Act, the EPA proposes to
fully approve the submitted rule because it fulfills all relevant
requirements. We will accept comments from the public on this proposal
until May 21, 2021. If we take final action to approve the submitted
rule, our final action will incorporate this rule into the federally
enforceable SIP.

III. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, the EPA is proposing to include in a final EPA rule
regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance
with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is proposing to incorporate by
reference the MDAQMD rule described in Table 1 of this preamble. The
EPA has made, and will continue to make, these materials available
through https://www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region IX Office
(please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section of this preamble for more information).

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, the EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this proposed action merely proposes to approve state law
as meeting federal requirements and does not impose additional
requirements beyond those imposed by state law. For that reason, this
proposed action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21,
2011);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     Does not provide the EPA with the discretionary authority
to address disproportionate human health or environmental effects with
practical, appropriate, and legally permissible methods under Executive
Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area where the EPA or an Indian tribe
has demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of
Indian country, the rule does not have tribal implications and will not
impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal
law as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9,
2000).

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Municipal Securities Rulemaking
Board; Notice of Filing of Proposed Rule Change Relating to the
Continuing Disclosure Service of the MSRB Electronic Municipal Market
Access (EMMA) System

July 13, 2010.
    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 June 30, 2010, the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (``MSRB'')
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the
proposed rule change as described in Items I, II, and III below, which
Items have been prepared by the MSRB. 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 MSRB has filed with the Commission a proposed rule change to
amend the continuing disclosure service of its Electronic Municipal
Market Access (``EMMA'') system to reflect recent Commission amendments
to Securities Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12 (``Exchange Act Rule 15c2-
12''). The MSRB requests an effective date for the proposed rule change
of a date to be announced by the MSRB in a notice published on the MSRB
Web site, which date shall be no later than December 1, 2010 and shall
be announced no later than five (5) business days prior to the
effective date.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the MSRB's Web
site at www.msrb.org/Rules-and-Interpretations/SEC-Filings.aspx, at the
MSRB's principal office, 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 MSRB included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The MSRB 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
    Currently Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12 provides that an underwriter
for a primary offering of municipal securities subject to Exchange Act
Rule 15c2-12 is prohibited from underwriting the offering unless the
underwriter has determined that the issuer or an obligated person for
whom financial information or operating data is presented in the final
official statement has undertaken in writing to provide certain items
of information to the MSRB. Such items include: (A) Annual financial
information; (B) audited financial statements if available and if not
included in the annual financial information; (C) notices of certain
events (``Rule 15c2-12 Event Notices''); \3\ and (D) notices of
failures to provide annual financial information on or before the date
specified in the written undertaking. Written undertakings are to
provide that all continuing disclosure documents submitted to the MSRB
shall be accompanied by identifying information as prescribed by the
MSRB. Such submissions are made by issuers, obligated persons and their
agents to the MSRB through the EMMA continuing disclosure service and
are made available to the public through the EMMA Web site for free and
through paid subscriptions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Under Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12(b)(5)(i)(C), notices of the
following events currently are required to be submitted to the MSRB,
if material: principal and interest payment delinquencies; non-
payment related defaults; unscheduled draws on debt service reserves
reflecting financial difficulties; unscheduled draws on credit
enhancements reflecting financial difficulties; substitution of
credit or liquidity providers, or their failure to perform; adverse
tax opinions or events affecting the tax-exempt status of the
security; modifications to rights of security holders; bond calls;
defeasances; release, substitution, or sale of property securing
repayment of the securities; and rating changes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission has recently amended Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12 to
modify several provisions relating to the submission of continuing
disclosures to the MSRB (the ``Rule 15c2-12 Amendment'').\4\ The Rule
15c2-12 Amendment, among other things: (1) Removes the exemption from
the continuing disclosure provisions of Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12 for
demand securities; \5\ (2) modifies Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12 to
establish a timeliness standard for submission of Rule 15c2-12 Event
Notices of ten business days after the occurrence of the event; (3)
deletes the general materiality condition for certain of the Rule 15c2-
12 Event Notices; (4) modifies the language of the Rule 15c2-12 Event
Notice regarding adverse tax events; \6\ and (5) adds new Rule 15c2-12
Event Notices.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Release No. 34-62184A; File No. S7-15-09 (May 26, 2010).
    \5\ Currently primary offerings for demand securities as
described in Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12(d)(1)(iii) are exempt from
the requirements of Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12.
    \6\ The Rule 15c2-12 Amendment expands the current language of
such Rule 15c2-12 Event Notice category to include adverse tax
opinions, the issuance by the IRS of proposed or final
determinations of taxability, Notices of Proposed Issue (IRS Form
5701-TEB) or other material notices or determinations with respect
to the tax status of the security or other material events affecting
the tax status of the security.
    \7\ The Rule 15c2-12 Amendment includes the following new Rule
15c2-12 Event Notices: tender offers; bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership, or similar event of the issuer or obligated person;
the consummation of a merger, consolidation, or acquisition
involving an obligated person or the sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of the obligated person, other than in the
ordinary course of business, the entry into a definitive agreement
to undertake such an action or the termination of a definitive
agreement relating to any such actions, other than pursuant to its
terms, if material; and the appointment of a successor or additional
trustee, or the change of name of a trustee, if material.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    To permit issuers and obligated persons to meet the provisions of
the Rule 15c2-12 Amendment on or prior to the compliance date of
December 1, 2010 established under the Rule 15c2-12 Amendment, this
proposed rule change would modify the language of the EMMA continuing
disclosure service to reflect the materiality standard changes under
the Rule 15c2-12 Amendment and would modify the list of voluntary
event-based disclosures that may be submitted to the EMMA continuing
disclosure service to reflect changes in the list of Rule 15c2-12 Event
Notices made by the Rule 15c2-12 Amendment.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ The existing language of the EMMA continuing disclosure
service would incorporate the changed list of Rule 15c2-12 Event
Notices made by the Rule 15c2-12 Amendment by reference to the then-
current provisions of Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12 and therefore no
change in the language of the EMMA continuing disclosure service
would be made. In addition, the removal of the exemption for demand
securities from the continuing disclosure provisions of Exchange Act
Rule 15c2-12 does not require changes to the EMMA continuing
disclosure service in order to permit submission of disclosures in
connection with demand securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Upon this proposed rule change becoming effective, the continuing
disclosure service of EMMA would accept submissions of, and make
publicly available through EMMA, the following categories of event-
based continuing disclosure documents: \9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ This proposed rule change does not modify the existing
categories of financial/operating data disclosures available through
the EMMA continuing disclosure service.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rule 15c2-12 Event Notices
     Principal and interest payment delinquencies.
     Non-payment related defaults, if material.
     Unscheduled draws on debt service reserves reflecting
financial difficulties.
     Unscheduled draws on credit enhancements reflecting
financial difficulties.
     Substitution of credit or liquidity providers or their
failure to perform.
     Adverse tax opinions, IRS notices or events affecting the
tax status of the security.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ This category would represent the expansion in the 15c2-12
Amendment of the prior category of ``adverse tax opinions or events
affecting the tax-exempt status of the security'' to ``adverse tax
opinions, the issuance by the Internal Revenue Service of proposed
or final determinations of taxability, Notices of Proposed Issue
(IRS Form 5701-TEB) or other material notices or determinations with
respect to the tax status of the security, or other material events
affecting the tax status of the security.'' See amended Exchange Act
Rule 15c2-12(b)(5)(i)(C)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Modifications to rights of security holders, if material.
     Bond calls, if material.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ The Rule 15c2-12 Amendment expands this category to include
tender offers. See amended Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12(b)(5)(i)(C)(8).
The EMMA continuing disclosure service currently provides a
voluntary event-based notice category of ``tender offers/secondary
market purchases.'' The EMMA continuing disclosure service will
continue to utilize ``bond call'' as a separate category from
``tender offer.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Defeasances.
     Release, substitution or sale of property securing
repayment of the securities, if material.
     Rating changes.
     Tender offers.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ Id. The existing ``tender offers/secondary market
purchases'' category of voluntary event-based notice will be split
into a new Rule 15c2-12 Event Notice category of ``tender offers''
and a voluntary event-based category of ``secondary market
purchases.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar event of
the obligated person \13\.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ The existing ``merger/consolidation/reorganization/
insolvency/bankruptcy'' category of voluntary event-based notice
will be split into a new Rule 15c2-12 Event Notice category of
``bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar event of the
issuer or obligated person'' and a second Rule 15c2-12 Event Notice
category of ``merger, consolidation or acquisition of the obligated
person.'' See amended Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12(b)(5)(i)(C)(12).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Merger, consolidation, or acquisition of the obligated
person, if material \14\.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ Id. The full reference to this category under amended
Exchange Act Rule 15c2-12(b)(5)(i)(C)(13) is ``the consummation of a
merger, consolidation, or acquisition involving an obligated person
or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
obligated person, other than in the ordinary course of business, the
entry into a definitive agreement to undertake such an action or the
termination of a definitive agreement relating to any such actions,
other than pursuant to its terms, if material.''

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

     Appointment of a successor or additional trustee, or the
change of name of a trustee, if material.
    Additional/Voluntary Event-Based Disclosures (certain
communications from the Internal Revenue Service, tender offers,
merger/consolidation/reorganization/insolvency/bankruptcy and change of
trustee are no longer reflected as additional/voluntary event-based
disclosures).
     Amendment to continuing disclosure undertaking.
     Change in obligated person.
     Notice to investors pursuant to bond documents.
     Certain communications from the Internal Revenue Service.
     Secondary market purchases.
     Bid for auction rate or other securities.
     Capital or other financing plan.
     Litigation/enforcement action .
     Change of tender agent, remarketing agent, or other on-
going party.
     Derivative or other similar transaction.
     Other event-based disclosures.
2. Statutory Basis
    The MSRB has adopted the proposed rule change pursuant to section
15B(b)(2)(C) of the Act,\15\ which provides that the MSRB's rules
shall:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-4(b)(2)(C).

    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, processing information with respect
to, and facilitating transactions in municipal securities, to remove
impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market
in municipal securities, and, in general, to protect investors and
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
the public interest.

    The MSRB believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Act in that it effectuates the Commission's Rule 15c2-12 Amendment
under the Act. In addition, the proposed rule change serves to remove
impediments to and help perfect the mechanisms of a free and open
market in municipal securities and would serve to promote the statutory
mandate of the MSRB to protect investors and the public interest. The
proposed rule change would aid in providing additional information for
making investment decisions more easily accessible to all participants
in the municipal securities market on an equal basis throughout the
life of the securities without barriers to obtaining such information.
Broad access to additional continuing disclosure documents through the
continuing disclosure service of EMMA should assist in preventing
fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices by improving the
opportunity for public investors to access material information about
issuers and their securities.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The MSRB does not believe the proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of
the purposes of the Act. Documents and information provided through the
continuing disclosure service would be available to all persons
simultaneously. In addition to making the additional documents and
information available for free on the EMMA portal to all members of the
public, the MSRB would make such documents and information available by
subscription on an equal and non-discriminatory basis.

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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received on the
proposed rule change.

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

    Within 35 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period: (i) As the Commission
may designate up to 90 days of such date 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 such proposed rule change; or
    B. institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.
    The MSRB has requested an effective date for the proposed rule
change of a date to be announced by the MSRB in a notice published on
the MSRB Web site, which date shall be no later than December 1, 2010
and shall be announced no later than five (5) business days prior to
the effective date.

Airworthiness Directives; Fokker Services B.V. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Fokker Services B.V. Model F.27 Mark 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, and
700 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report of a main landing gear
(MLG) collapse due to a broken drag stay; an investigation revealed
that the drag stay failure was due to fatigue cracks, introduced by
incorrect machining of the affected drag stay tube during production.
This AD requires an inspection of the drag stay unit to determine the
signal indication, and related investigative and corrective actions if
necessary. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on
these products.

DATES: This AD is effective April 8, 2019.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of April 8,
2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to all Fokker Services B.V.
Model F.27 Mark 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, and 700 airplanes. The
NPRM published in the Federal Register on November 8, 2018 (83 FR
55825). The NPRM was prompted by a report of an MLG collapse due to a
broken drag stay; an investigation revealed that the drag stay failure
was due to fatigue cracks, introduced by incorrect machining of the
affected drag stay tube during production. The NPRM proposed to require
an inspection of the drag stay unit to determine the signal indication,
and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary.
    We are issuing this AD to address fatigue cracking, which could
lead to MLG collapse and result in damage to the airplane during
landing and consequent injury to passengers.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2018-0015, dated January 25, 2018 (referred to after this as the
Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to
correct an unsafe condition for all Fokker Services B.V. Model F.27
Mark 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, and 700 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    In 1993, an occurrence was reported concerning an MLG collapse
due to a broken drag stay on a Fokker F27 Mark 500 RFV (rough field
version/configuration). The investigation revealed that the drag
stay failure was due to fatigue cracks, introduced by incorrect
machining (not smooth, with a notch) of the affected drag stay tube
bore during production.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to MLG
collapse, possibly resulting in damage to the aeroplane during
landing and consequent injury to occupants.
    To address this unsafe condition, DALG [Dowty Aerospace Landing
Gear] issued SB [service bulletin] 32-169B and SB 32-82W (both later
revised), and Fokker Services issued SB F27/32-167, to provide
inspection instructions. Consequently, the Civil Aviation Authority
of the Netherlands (CAA-NL) issued AD (BLA) 93-169 (later revised)
[which corresponded to FAA AD 97-04-08, Amendment 39-9932 (62 FR
7924, February 21, 1997), and applies to certain Fokker Model F27
Mark 050, 100, 200, 300, 400, 600, and 700 airplanes], requiring a
one-time ultrasonic inspection to identify the type of drag stay
tube installed (with stepped or straight bore) on each affected drag
stay unit, inspection of the affected drag stay tubes for the
presence of cracks, and, depending on findings, re-identification.
    After CAA-NL AD (BLA) 93-169/2 was issued, another occurrence
was reported on an F27 Mark 500 RFV. Investigation results
determined that the drag stay tube of the second occurrence had not
been inspected as required by CAA-NL AD (BLA) 93-169, due to
misinterpretation of the instructions of Fokker SB F27/32-167.
Prompted by these findings, Fokker Services issued SB F27-32-171,
providing additional inspection instructions, and CAA-NL issued AD
NL-2005-003 (EASA approval 2005-3869) [which corresponds to FAA AD
2006-25-06, Amendment 39-14847 (71 FR 71475, December 11, 2006) and
applies to Fokker Services B.V. Model F.27 Mark 500 airplanes] to
require repetitive inspections of the affected drag stay tubes to
detect cracks and,

depending on findings, rework or replacement.
    Since those SBs and [CAA-NL] ADs were issued, the applicable CMM
[component maintenance manual] were changed, although with incorrect
P/N information, as a result of which an affected drag stay tube
with a non-conforming bore radius may inadvertently have been
installed on an aeroplane. Prompted by these findings, the
applicable CMM were corrected and re-issued, and SLS issued Service
Letter (SL) F27-W-8 to inform the operators, and Fokker Services
introduced the relevant corrections in the F27 Mark 100 through Mark
700 Illustrated Parts Catalogue (IPC) in September 2017.
    Installation of an affected drag stay tube with a non-conforming
bore radius, on an MLG drag stay unit that has been re-identified,
i.e. not subject to the repetitive inspections as required by CAA-NL
AD NL-2005-003, would reintroduce the unsafe condition as originally
addressed by the SBs and ADs referred to above. To address this
potential unsafe condition, Fokker Services issued SBF27-32-173 to
provide instructions to inspect, remove/discard or re-identify the
affected drag stay tubes.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires a one-
time inspection of the affected drag stay units to determine whether
an affected drag stay tube is installed, repetitive inspections of
those that have an affected drag stay tube installed, and, depending
on findings, accomplishment of applicable corrective action(s)
[which includes replacement of the drag stay tube].

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this final rule. We received no comments on the NPRM or on the
determination of the cost to the public.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting this final rule as proposed,
except for minor editorial changes. We have determined that these minor
changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will 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 this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities

under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

collapse due to a broken drag stay; an investigation revealed that
the drag stay failure was due to fatigue cracks, introduced by
incorrect machining of the affected drag stay tube during
production. We are issuing this AD to address fatigue cracking,
which could lead to MLG collapse and result in damage to the
airplane during landing and consequent injury to passengers.

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket ID FEMA-2019-0003; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-8583]

Suspension of Community Eligibility

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule identifies communities where the sale of flood
insurance has been authorized under the National Flood Insurance
Program

(NFIP) that are scheduled for suspension on the effective dates listed
within this rule because of noncompliance with the floodplain
management requirements of the program. If the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) receives documentation that the community has
adopted the required floodplain management measures prior to the
effective suspension date given in this rule, the suspension will not
occur and a notice of this will be provided by publication in the
Federal Register on a subsequent date. Also, information identifying
the current participation status of a community can be obtained from
FEMA's Community Status Book (CSB). The CSB is available at https://www.fema.gov/national-flood-insurance-program-community-status-book.

DATES:  The effective date of each community's scheduled suspension is
the third date (``Susp.'') listed in the third column of the following
tables.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:  If you want to determine whether a
particular community was suspended on the suspension date or for
further information, contact Adrienne L. Sheldon, PE, CFM, Federal
Insurance and Mitigation Administration, Federal Emergency Management
Agency, 400 C Street SW, Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP enables property owners to purchase
Federal flood insurance that is not otherwise generally available from
private insurers. In return, communities agree to adopt and administer
local floodplain management measures aimed at protecting lives and new
construction from future flooding. Section 1315 of the National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits the sale
of NFIP flood insurance unless an appropriate public body adopts
adequate floodplain management measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed in this document no longer meet that
statutory requirement for compliance with program regulations, 44 CFR
part 59. Accordingly, the communities will be suspended on the
effective date in the third column. As of that date, flood insurance
will no longer be available in the community. We recognize that some of
these communities may adopt and submit the required documentation of
legally enforceable floodplain management measures after this rule is
published but prior to the actual suspension date. These communities
will not be suspended and will continue to be eligible for the sale of
NFIP flood insurance. A notice withdrawing the suspension of such
communities will be published in the Federal Register.
    In addition, FEMA publishes a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) that
identifies the Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) in these communities.
The date of the FIRM, if one has been published, is indicated in the
fourth column of the table. No direct Federal financial assistance
(except assistance pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief
and Emergency Assistance Act not in connection with a flood) may be
provided for construction or acquisition of buildings in identified
SFHAs for communities not participating in the NFIP and identified for
more than a year on FEMA's initial FIRM for the community as having
flood-prone areas (section 202(a) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act
of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4106(a), as amended). This prohibition against
certain types of Federal assistance becomes effective for the
communities listed on the date shown in the last column. The
Administrator finds that notice and public comment procedures under 5
U.S.C. 553(b), are impracticable and unnecessary because communities
listed in this final rule have been adequately notified.
    Each community receives 6-month, 90-day, and 30-day notification
letters addressed to the Chief Executive Officer stating that the
community will be suspended unless the required floodplain management
measures are met prior to the effective suspension date. Since these
notifications were made, this final rule may take effect within less
than 30 days.
    National Environmental Policy Act. FEMA has determined that the
community suspension(s) included in this rule is a non-discretionary
action and therefore the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) does not apply.
    Regulatory Flexibility Act. The Administrator has determined that
this rule is exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act because the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
Section 1315, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits flood insurance coverage unless
an appropriate public body adopts adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement measures. The communities listed no
longer comply with the statutory requirements, and after the effective
date, flood insurance will no longer be available in the communities
unless remedial action takes place.
    Regulatory Classification. This final rule is not a significant
regulatory action under the criteria of section 3(f) of Executive Order
