DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 97

[Docket No. 31252; Amdt. No. 3852]

Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures; Miscellaneous Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule amends, suspends, or removes Standard Instrument
Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures for operations at certain airports. These
regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption of new or revised
criteria, or because of changes occurring in the National Airspace
System, such as the commissioning of new navigational facilities,
adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements. These
changes are designed to provide for the safe and efficient use of the
navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under
instrument flight rules at the affected airports.

DATES: This rule is effective May 23, 2019. The compliance date for
each SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, and ODP is specified in the
amendatory provisions.
    The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in
the regulations is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as
of May 23, 2019.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matter incorporated by reference in the
amendment is as follows:

For Examination

    1. U.S. Department of Transportation, Docket Ops-M30, 1200 New
Jersey Avenue SE, West Bldg., Ground Floor, Washington, DC 20590-0001;
    2. The FAA Air Traffic Organization Service Area in which the
affected airport is located;
    3. The office of Aeronautical Navigation Products, 6500 South
MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma City, OK 73169 or,
    4. The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).
    For information on the availability of this material at NARA, call
202-741-6030, or go to:  http://www.archives.gov/federal_register/code_of_federal_regulations/ibr_locations.html.

Availability

    All SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs are available online free
of charge. Visit the National Flight Data Center online at nfdc.faa.gov
to register. Additionally, individual SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and ODP
copies may be obtained from the FAA Air Traffic Organization Service
Area in which the affected airport is located.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Thomas J. Nichols, Flight Procedures
and Airspace Group, Flight Technologies and Procedures Division, Flight
Standards Service, Federal Aviation Administration. Mailing Address:
FAA Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, Flight Procedures and Airspace
Group, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd., Registry Bldg. 29. Room 104,
Oklahoma City, OK 73125. Telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by amending the referenced SIAPs.
The complete regulatory description of each SIAP is listed on the
appropriate FAA Form 8260, as modified by the National Flight Data
Center (NFDC)/Permanent Notice to Airmen (P-NOTAM), and is incorporated
by reference under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 CFR 97.20.
The large number of SIAPs, their complex nature, and the need for a
special format make their verbatim publication in the Federal Register
expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use the regulatory
text of the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic depiction on charts
printed by publishers of aeronautical materials. Thus, the advantages
of incorporation by reference are realized and publication of the
complete description of each SIAP contained on FAA form documents is
unnecessary.
    This amendment provides the affected CFR sections, and specifies
the SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs with their applicable effective
dates. This amendment also identifies the airport and its location, the
procedure and the amendment number.

Availability and Summary of Material Incorporated by Reference

    The material incorporated by reference is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section.
    The material incorporated by reference describes SIAPs, Takeoff

Minimums and ODPs as identified in the amendatory language for part 97
of this final rule.

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and ODP as amended in the
transmittal. For safety and timeliness of change considerations, this
amendment incorporates only specific changes contained for each SIAP
and Takeoff Minimums and ODP as modified by FDC permanent NOTAMs.
    The SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, as modified by FDC
permanent NOTAM, and contained in this amendment are based on the
criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for Terminal Instrument
Procedures (TERPS). In developing these changes to SIAPs and Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs, the TERPS criteria were applied only to specific
conditions existing at the affected airports. All SIAP amendments in
this rule have been previously issued by the FAA in a FDC NOTAM as an
emergency action of immediate flight safety relating directly to
published aeronautical charts.
    The circumstances that created the need for these SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments require making them effective in less than
30 days.
    Because of the close and immediate relationship between these
SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find
that notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are
impracticable and contrary to the public interest and, where
applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), good cause exists for making these
SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore--(1) is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Railroad Administration

[Docket Number FRA-2018-0102]

Petition for Waiver of Compliance

    Under part 211 of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), this
document provides the public notice that on November 16, 2018, the
Regional Transportation District (RTD), the City of Arvada, Colorado,
and the City of Wheat Ridge, Colorado, petitioned the Federal Railroad
Administration (FRA) for a waiver of compliance from certain provisions
of the Federal railroad safety regulations contained at 49 CFR part
222. FRA assigned the petition Docket Number FRA-2018-0102.
    Specifically, petitioners seek a waiver from the provisions of 49
CFR 222.35(b)(1) to establish a new quiet zone consisting of thirteen
public highway-rail grade crossings with active grade crossing warning
devices comprising both flashing lights and gates that are not equipped
with constant warning time devices. The crossing warning devices on the
proposed ``RTDC/BNSF Gold Line-Arvada Quiet Zone'' on the RTD G-Line
are primarily activated by a wireless crossing activation system (WCAS)
using ``GPS-determined train speed and location to predict how many
seconds a train is from the crossing.'' Petitioners assert that this
information is communicated wirelessly to the crossing warning devices
and seeks to provide constant warning times. Additionally, this system
is supplemented by a conventional track warning system in case the WCAS
is unavailable.
    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
Avenue SE, W12-140, Washington, DC 20590. The Docket Operations
Facility is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except
Federal Holidays.
    Interested parties are invited to participate in these proceedings
by submitting written views, data, or comments. FRA does not anticipate
scheduling a public hearing in connection with these proceedings since
the facts do not appear to warrant a hearing. If any interested parties
desire an opportunity for oral comment and a public hearing, they
should notify FRA, in writing, before the end of the comment period and
specify the basis for their request.
    All communications concerning these proceedings should identify the
appropriate docket number and may be submitted by any of the following
methods:
     Website: http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online
instructions for submitting comments.
     Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.
     Mail: Docket Operations Facility, U.S. Department of
Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, W12-140, Washington, DC
20590.
     Hand Delivery: 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Room W12-140,
Washington, DC 20590, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday,
except Federal Holidays.
    Communications received by January 28, 2019 will be considered by
FRA before final action is taken. Comments received after that date
will be considered if practicable.
    Anyone can search the electronic form of any written communications
and comments received into any of our dockets by the name of the
individual submitting the comment (or signing the document, if
submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor union, etc.).
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(c), DOT solicits comments from the public to better
inform its processes. DOT posts these comments, without edit, including
any personal information the commenter provides, to
www.regulations.gov, as described in the system of records notice (DOT/
ALL-14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at https://www.transportation.gov/privacy. See also https://www.regulations.gov/privacyNotice for the

Applicants' Representations

    1. The Trust is an open-end management investment company
registered under the Act and organized as a Delaware statutory trust.
The Trust is comprised of separate series (each a ``Fund'' and
collectively, the ``Funds''). The Adviser is registered as an
investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940
(``Advisers Act'') and serves as investment adviser for each of the
Funds. The Distributor is registered as a broker dealer under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Exchange Act'') and serves as
the Funds' distributor. Both the Adviser and the Distributor are
Delaware limited liability companies.
    2. Applicants request an order to permit (a) registered open-end
management investment companies (the ``Investing Funds'') that are not
part of the same ``group of investment companies,'' within the meaning
of section 12(d)(1)(G)(ii) of the Act, as the Trust, to acquire shares
of the Funds in excess of the limits in section 12(d)(1)(A) of the Act,
and (b) the Funds, any principal underwriter for a Fund, and any broker
or dealer registered under the Exchange Act (``Broker'') to sell shares
of the Funds to the Investing Funds in excess of the limits of section
12(d)(1)(B) of the Act.\1\ Applicants also request an order under
sections 6(c) and 17(b) of the Act to exempt applicants from section
17(a) to the extent necessary to permit a Fund to sell its shares to
and redeem its shares from an Investing Fund.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ All entities that currently intend to rely on the requested
order are named as applicants. Any other entity that relies on the
order in the future will comply with the terms and conditions of the
application. Certain of the Funds created in the future may be
registered under the Act as open-end management investment companies
and may have received exemptive relief to permit their shares to be
listed and traded on a national securities exchange at negotiated
prices (``ETFs'').
    \2\ Applicants request that the relief apply to: (1) Each
registered open-end management investment company or series thereof
that currently or subsequently is part of the same ``group of
investment companies,'' within the meaning of section
12(d)(1)(G)(ii) of the Act, as the Trust and is advised by the
Adviser (included in the term ``Funds''); (2) each Investing Fund
that enters into a Participation Agreement (as defined below) with a
Fund to purchase shares of the Fund; and (3) any principal
underwriter to a Fund or Broker (as defined below) selling shares of
a Fund.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    3. Each Investing Fund will be advised by an ``investment
adviser,'' within the meaning of section 2(a)(20)(A) of the Act, and
such adviser will be registered as an investment adviser under the
Advisers Act (each, an ``Investing Fund Adviser''). Some Investing
Funds may also be advised by an investment adviser that meets the
definition of section 2(a)(20)(B) of the Act (each, an ``Investing Fund
Subadviser'').

 Applicants' Legal Analysis

A. Section 12(d)(1)

    1. Section 12(d)(1)(A) of the Act, in relevant part, prohibits a
registered investment company from acquiring shares of an investment
company if the securities represent more than 3% of the total
outstanding voting stock of the acquired company, more than 5% of the
total assets of the acquiring company, or, together with the securities
of any other investment companies, more than 10% of the total assets of
the acquiring company. Section 12(d)(1)(B) of the Act prohibits a
registered open-end investment company, its principal underwriter, and
any Broker from knowingly selling the investment company's shares to
another investment company if the sale will cause the acquiring company
to own more than 3% of the acquired company's total outstanding voting
stock, or if the sale will cause more than 10% of the acquired
company's total outstanding voting stock to be owned by investment
companies generally.
    2. Section 12(d)(1)(J) of the Act provides that the Commission may

exempt any person, security, or transaction, or any class or classes of
persons, securities or transactions, from any provision of section
12(d)(1) if the exemption is consistent with the public interest and
the protection of investors. Applicants seek an exemption under section
12(d)(1)(J) of the Act to permit Investing Funds to acquire shares of
the Funds in excess of the limits in section 12(d)(1)(A), and a Fund,
any principal underwriter for a Fund and any Broker to sell shares of a
Fund to an Investing Fund in excess of the limits in section
12(d)(1)(B) of the Act.
    3. Applicants state that the proposed arrangement will not give
rise to the policy concerns underlying sections 12(d)(1)(A) and (B),
which include concerns about undue influence by a fund of funds over
underlying funds, excessive layering of fees, and overly complex fund
structures. Accordingly, applicants believe that the requested
exemption is consistent with the public interest and the protection of
investors.
    4. Applicants believe that the proposed arrangement will not result
in the exercise of undue influence by an Investing Fund or an Investing
Fund Affiliate over the Funds.\3\ To limit the control that an
Investing Fund may have over a Fund, applicants propose a condition
prohibiting the Investing Fund's Advisory Group from controlling
(individually or in the aggregate) a Fund within the meaning of section
2(a)(9) of the Act.\4\ The same prohibition would apply to any
Investing Fund's Subadvisory Group.\5\ Applicants propose other
conditions to limit the potential for undue influence over the Funds,
including that no Investing Fund or Investing Fund Affiliate (except to
the extent it is acting in its capacity as an investment adviser to a
Fund) will cause a Fund to purchase a security in an offering of
securities during the existence of any underwriting or selling
syndicate of which a principal underwriter is an Underwriting Affiliate
(``Affiliated Underwriting'').\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ An ``Investing Fund Affiliate'' is the Investing Fund
Adviser, any Investing Fund Subadviser, promoter or principal
underwriter of an Investing Fund, as well as any person controlling,
controlled by, or under common control with any of those entities. A
``Fund Affiliate'' is an investment adviser, sponsor, promoter, or
principal underwriter of a Fund, as well as any person controlling,
controlled by, or under common control with any of those entities.
    \4\ An ``Investing Fund's Advisory Group'' is the Investing Fund
Adviser, any person controlling, controlled by or under common
control with the Investing Fund Adviser, and any investment company
or issuer that would be an investment company but for section
3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the Act that is advised or sponsored by the
Investing Fund Adviser or any person controlling, controlled by or
under common control with the Investing Fund Adviser.
    \5\ An ``Investing Fund's Subadvisory Group'' is an Investing
Fund Subadviser, any person controlling, controlled by or under
common control with the Investing Fund Subadviser, and any
investment company or issuer that would be an investment company but
for section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the Act (or portion of such
investment company or issuer) advised or sponsored by the Investing
Fund Subadviser or any person controlling, controlled by or under
common control with the Investing Fund Subadviser.
    \6\ An ``Underwriting Affiliate'' is a principal underwriter in
any underwriting or selling syndicate that is an officer, director,
trustee, advisory board member, Investing Fund Adviser, Investing
Fund Subadviser, or employee of the Investing Fund, or a person of
which any such officer, director, trustee, advisory board member,
Investing Fund Adviser, Investing Fund Subadviser, or employee is an
affiliated person. An Underwriting Affiliate does not include any
person whose relationship to the Fund is covered by section 10(f) of
the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    5. To ensure that the Investing Funds comply with the terms and
conditions of the requested relief, prior to an Investing Fund's
investment in the shares of a Fund in excess of the limit in section
12(d)(1)(A) of the Act, the Investing Fund and the Fund will execute an
agreement stating, without limitation, that their Boards (as defined
below) and their investment advisers understand the terms and
conditions of the order and agree to fulfill their responsibilities
under the order (``Participation Agreement'').\7\ Applicants note that
each of the Funds (other than an ETF whose shares are purchased by an
Investing Fund in the secondary market) will retain its right at all
times to reject any investment by an Investing Fund.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ The board of directors or trustees, as applicable, of a
specified entity is referred to herein as a ``Board.''
    \8\ A Fund, including an ETF, would retain its right to reject
any initial investment by an Investing Fund in excess of the limit
in section 12(d)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by declining to execute the
Participation Agreement with the Investing Fund.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    6. Applicants state that they do not believe that the proposed
arrangement will involve excessive layering of fees. The Board of each
Investing Fund, including a majority of the directors or trustees who
are not ``interested persons'' (within the meaning of section 2(a)(19)
of the Act) (``Disinterested Directors''), will find that the advisory
fees charged under investment advisory contract(s) are based on
services provided that will be in addition to, rather than duplicative
of, the services provided under the advisory contract(s) of any Fund in
which the Investing Fund may invest. In addition, the Investing Fund
Adviser will waive fees otherwise payable to it by an Investing Fund in
an amount at least equal to any compensation (including fees received
pursuant to any plan adopted by a Fund under rule 12b-1 under the Act)
received from a Fund by the Investing Fund Adviser, or an affiliated
person of the Investing Fund Adviser, other than any advisory fees paid
to the Investing Fund Adviser or its affiliated person by the Fund, in
connection with the investment by the Investing Fund in the Fund. Any
sales charges and/or service fees charged with respect to shares of an
Investing Fund will not exceed the limits applicable to a fund of funds
as set forth in Rule 2830 of the Conduct Rules of the NASD (``NASD
Conduct Rule 2830'').\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ Any references to NASD Conduct Rule 2830 include any
successor or replacement FINRA rule to NASD Conduct Rule 2830.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    7. Applicants submit that the proposed arrangement will not create
an overly complex fund structure. Applicants note that no Fund will
acquire securities of any investment company or company relying on
section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the Act in excess of the limits contained
in section 12(d)(1)(A) of the Act, except in certain circumstances
identified in condition 12 below.

B. Section 17(a)

    1. Section 17(a) of the Act generally prohibits sales or purchases
of securities between a registered investment company and any
affiliated person of the company. Section 2(a)(3) of the Act defines an
``affiliated person'' of another person to include (a) any person
directly or indirectly owning, controlling, or holding with power to
vote, 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the other
person; (b) any person 5% or more of whose outstanding voting
securities are directly or indirectly owned, controlled, or held with
power to vote by the other person; and (c) any person directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the
other person.
    2. Applicants state that an Investing Fund and a Fund might be
deemed to be affiliated persons of one another if the Investing Fund
acquires 5% or more of a Fund's outstanding voting securities.
Accordingly, section 17(a) could prevent a Fund from selling shares to
and redeeming shares from an Investing Fund.
    3. Section 17(b) of the Act authorizes the Commission to grant an
order permitting a transaction otherwise prohibited by section 17(a) if
it finds that (a) the terms of the proposed transaction are fair and
reasonable and do not involve overreaching on the part of any person
concerned; (b) the proposed transaction is consistent with the policies
of each registered investment company involved; and (c)

the proposed transaction is consistent with the general purposes of the
Act. Section 6(c) of the Act permits the Commission to exempt any
persons or transactions from any provision of the Act if such exemption
is necessary or appropriate in the public interest and consistent with
the protection of investors and the purposes fairly intended by the
policy and provisions of the Act.
    4. Applicants submit that the proposed transactions satisfy the
standards for relief under sections 17(b) and 6(c) of the Act.\10\
Applicants state that the terms of the transactions are reasonable and
fair and do not involve overreaching. Applicants state that the terms
upon which a Fund will sell its shares to or purchase its shares from
an Investing Fund will be based on the net asset value of the Fund.\11\
Applicants state that the proposed transactions will be consistent with
the policies of each Investing Fund and each Fund and with the general
purposes of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ Applicants acknowledge that receipt of any compensation by
(a) an affiliated person of an Investing Fund, or an affiliated
person of such person, for the purchase by an Investing Fund of
shares of a Fund or (b) an affiliated person of a Fund, or an
affiliated person of such person, for the sale by the Fund of its
shares to an Investing Fund may be prohibited by section 17(e)(1) of
the Act. The Participation Agreement also will include this
acknowledgement.
    \11\ Applicants note that an Investing Fund generally would
purchase and sell shares of a Fund that operates as an ETF through
secondary market transactions rather than through principal
transactions with the Fund. The requested relief is intended to
cover, however, transactions directly between Funds and Investing
Funds. Applicants are not seeking relief from section 17(a) for, and
the requested relief will not apply to, transactions where an ETF
could be deemed an affiliated person, or an affiliated person of an
affiliated person of an Investing Fund because an investment adviser
to the ETF is also an investment adviser to the Investing Fund.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Applicants' Conditions

    Applicants agree that the relief to permit Investing Funds to
invest in Funds shall be subject to the following conditions:
    1. The members of an Investing Fund's Advisory Group will not
control (individually or in the aggregate) a Fund within the meaning of
section 2(a)(9) of the Act. The members of an Investing Fund's
Subadvisory Group will not control (individually or in the aggregate) a
Fund within the meaning of section 2(a)(9) of the Act. If, as a result
of a decrease in the outstanding voting securities of a Fund, the
Investing Fund's Advisory Group or the Investing Fund's Subadvisory
Group, each in the aggregate, becomes a holder of more than 25 percent
of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund, it will vote its shares
of the Fund in the same proportion as the vote of all other holders of
the Fund's shares. This condition does not apply to the Investing
Fund's Subadvisory Group with respect to a Fund for which the Investing
Fund Subadviser or a person controlling, controlled by, or under common
control with the Investing Fund Subadviser acts as the investment
adviser within the meaning of section 2(a)(20)(A) of the Act.
    2. No Investing Fund or Investing Fund Affiliate will cause any
existing or potential investment by the Investing Fund in shares of a
Fund to influence the terms of any services or transactions between the
Investing Fund or an Investing Fund Affiliate and the Fund or a Fund
Affiliate.
    3. The Board of an Investing Fund, including a majority of the
Disinterested Directors, will adopt procedures reasonably designed to
ensure that the Investing Fund Adviser and any Investing Fund
Subadviser(s) are conducting the investment program of the Investing
Fund without taking into account any consideration received by the
Investing Fund or an Investing Fund Affiliate from a Fund or a Fund
Affiliate in connection with any services or transactions.
    4. Once an investment by an Investing Fund in the securities of a
Fund exceeds the limit in section 12(d)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, the Board
of the Fund, including a majority of the Disinterested Directors, will
determine that any consideration paid by the Fund to the Investing Fund
or an Investing Fund Affiliate in connection with any services or
transactions: (a) Is fair and reasonable in relation to the nature and
quality of the services and benefits received by the Fund; (b) is
within the range of consideration that the Fund would be required to
pay to another unaffiliated entity in connection with the same services
or transactions; and (c) does not involve overreaching on the part of
any person concerned. This condition does not apply with respect to any
services or transactions between a Fund and its investment adviser(s)
or any person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with
such investment adviser(s).
    5. No Investing Fund or Investing Fund Affiliate (except to the
extent it is acting in its capacity as an investment adviser to a Fund)
will cause a Fund to purchase a security in any Affiliated
Underwriting.
    6. The Board of a Fund, including a majority of the Disinterested
Directors, will adopt procedures reasonably designed to monitor any
purchases of securities by the Fund in an Affiliated Underwriting once
an investment by an Investing Fund in the securities of the Fund
exceeds the limit of section 12(d)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, including any
purchases made directly from an Underwriting Affiliate. The Board of
the Fund will review these purchases periodically, but no less
frequently than annually, to determine whether the purchases were
influenced by the investment by the Investing Fund in shares of the
Fund. The Board will consider, among other things, (i) whether the
purchases were consistent with the investment objectives and policies
of the Fund; (ii) how the performance of securities purchased in an
Affiliated Underwriting compares to the performance of comparable
securities purchased during a comparable period of time in
underwritings other than Affiliated Underwritings or to a benchmark
such as a comparable market index; and (iii) whether the amount of
securities purchased by the Fund in Affiliated Underwritings and the
amount purchased directly from an Underwriting Affiliate have changed
significantly from prior years. The Board will take any appropriate
actions based on its review, including, if appropriate, the institution
of procedures designed to ensure that purchases of securities in
Affiliated Underwritings are in the best interest of shareholders.
    7. Each Fund will maintain and preserve permanently in an easily
accessible place a written copy of the procedures described in the
preceding condition, and any modifications to such procedures, and will
maintain and preserve for a period of not less than six years from the
end of the fiscal year in which any purchase in an Affiliated
Underwriting occurred, the first two years in an easily accessible
place, a written record of each purchase of securities in Affiliated
Underwritings once an investment by an Investing Fund in the securities
of a Fund exceeds the limit in section 12(d)(1)(A)(i) of the Act,
setting forth from whom the securities were acquired, the identity of
the underwriting syndicate's members, the terms of the purchase, and
the information or materials upon which the Board's determinations were
made.
    8. Before investing in shares of a Fund in excess of the limits in
section 12(d)(1)(A), each Investing Fund and Fund will execute a
Participation Agreement stating, without limitation, that their Boards
and their investment advisers understand the terms and conditions of
the order and agree to fulfill their responsibilities under the order.
At the time of its investment in

shares of a Fund in excess of the limit in section 12(d)(1)(A)(i), an
Investing Fund will notify the Fund of the investment. At such time,
the Investing Fund will also transmit to the Fund a list of the names
of each Investing Fund Affiliate and Underwriting Affiliate. The
Investing Fund will notify the Fund of any changes to the list of the
names as soon as reasonably practicable after a change occurs. The Fund
and the Investing Fund will maintain and preserve a copy of the order,
the Participation Agreement, and the list with any updated information
for the duration of the investment and for a period of not less than
six years thereafter, the first two years in an easily accessible
place.
    9. Prior to approving any advisory contract under section 15 of the
Act, the Board of each Investing Fund, including a majority of the
Disinterested Directors, will find that the advisory fees charged under
such advisory contracts are based on services provided that will be in
addition to, rather than duplicative of, the services provided under
the advisory contract(s) of any Fund in which the Investing Fund may
invest. These findings and their basis will be recorded fully in the
minute books of the appropriate Investing Fund.
    10. An Investing Fund Adviser will waive fees otherwise payable to
it by the Investing Fund in an amount at least equal to any
compensation (including fees received pursuant to a plan adopted by a
Fund under Rule 12b-1 under the Act) received from a Fund by the
Investing Fund Adviser, or an affiliated person of the Investing Fund
Adviser, other than any advisory fees paid to the Investing Fund
Adviser or its affiliated person by the Fund, in connection with the
investment by the Investing Fund in the Fund. Any Investing Fund
Subadviser will waive fees otherwise payable to the Investing Fund
Subadviser, directly or indirectly, by the Investing Fund in an amount
at least equal to any compensation received from a Fund by the
Investing Fund Subadviser, or an affiliated person of the Investing
Fund Subadviser, other than any advisory fees paid to the Investing
Fund Subadviser or its affiliated person by the Fund, in connection
with the investment by the Investing Fund in the Fund made at the
direction of the Investing Fund Subadviser. In the event that the
Investing Fund Subadviser waives fees, the benefit of the waiver will
be passed through to the Investing Fund.
    11. Any sales charges and/or service fees charged with respect to
shares of an Investing Fund will not exceed the limits applicable to a
fund of funds as set forth in NASD Conduct Rule 2830.
    12. No Fund will acquire securities of any investment company or
company relying on section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the Act in excess of
the limits contained in section 12(d)(1)(A) of the Act, except to the
extent permitted by exemptive relief from the Commission permitting the
Fund to purchase shares of other investment companies for short-term
cash management purposes.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Investment Management,
pursuant to delegated authority.
Kevin O'Neill,
Deputy Secretary.

BILLING CODE 8011-01-P


MEMORANDUM
SUBJECT: Emergency Review Justification for the Revision to the Information Collection Request for the 2020 Drinking Water Infrastructure Needs Survey and Assessment (DWINSA) (OMB Control Number 2616.02; EPA ICR Number 2040-NEW)
FROM: Anita Thompkins, Director
Drinking Water Infrastructure Development Division
Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water
THRU: Courtney Kerwin, Director
Regulatory Support Division
Office of Mission Support
TO: OMB Desk Officer for EPA's Office of Water
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs
Office of Management and Budget
Pursuant to section 3507(j) of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), as implemented in the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations at 5 CFR §1320.13, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is hereby requesting emergency processing of a revision to an information collection, the 2020 Drinking Water Infrastructure Needs Survey and Assessment (DWINSA).
Information Collection is Essential to the Mission of the Agency
The purpose of the information collection through the 2020 DWINSA was to identify the infrastructure needs of public water systems for the 20-year period from January 2020 through December 2039. The EPA's Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water collected these data to comply with sections 1452(h) and 1452(i)(4) of the Safe Drinking Water Act (42 U.S.C. 300j-12). In addition, the America's Water Infrastructure Act (AWIA) of 2018 mandated EPA to evaluate and include the cost to replace lead service lines (LSL) in the drinking water infrastructure needs survey.
Data from this LSL collection request were used to calculate allotments of the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) Lead Service Line Replacement (LSLR) funding to states. However, states have expressed interest in a one-time update of the LSL questionnaire for the 2020 DWINSA because service line information is rapidly changing as states and water systems develop inventories required under the Lead and Copper Rule Revisions. This one-time update of the LSL questionnaire will allow water systems and states that provided incomplete submissions to the original LSL questionnaire or are still working on their LSL inventories to provide additional information to the data collected in 2021, resulting in a BIL LSLR allotment for FY24 that reflects the most current understanding of the states' needs.
Information Collection Activities Involved in this Emergency Request
This is a one-time revision to the 2020 DWINSA information collection for the LSL questionnaire only. A supporting statement addendum associated with this information collection is attached. As a summary, information collection activities will include an informational phone call, an e-mail with the data collection instrument to the water systems, and an additional phone call or email to collect LSL data.
EPA Cannot Reasonably Comply with the Normal Clearance Procedures
EPA is requesting an emergency approval of this ICR because EPA intends for the update to affect the BIL LSLR allotments starting in FY2024 (i.e., 3rd year of BIL funding). To achieve this timeline, questionnaires will need to be sent to states in August 2023, with data collection occurring from September to November 2023. This would allow the final release of the FY2024 BIL LSLR funding allotments in early 2024.
Agency Has Taken All Practicable Steps to Consult with Affected Parties in Order to Minimize
Burden
EPA has engaged states for input on details of the process through workgroups and water sector association meetings. Further, this one-time LSL count update to 2020 DWINSA is a request from the states, many of whom felt the quality of data for LSL counts has improved since the 2020 DWINSA data collection timeframe. This collection will only include requests for updated responses from the original 2020 DWINSA-surveyed water systems. EPA intends to provide virtual contractor support for small water systems, similar to services provided for the 2020 DWINSA.
Federal Register Notice
Current with the submission of this request, EPA will publish a notice in the Federal Register stating that we are requesting emergency processing of this revised ICR.
Requested Approval Date
EPA requests that OMB please provide an approval/disapproval determination of this request to
collect information under an emergency clearance by July 31, 2023
If you have any questions or need anything further, please contact Courtney Kerwin
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or Jason Wilcox (wilcox.jason@epa.gov).

Federal Railroad Administration

[Docket Number FRA-2013-0095]

Notice of Application for Approval of Discontinuance or
Modification of a Railroad Signal System

    In accordance with Part 235 of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations
and 49 U.S.C. 20502(a), this document provides the public notice that
by a document dated August 1, 2013, the Grenada Railway, LLC (GRYR)
petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) seeking approval
for the discontinuance or modification of a signal system. FRA assigned
the petition Docket Number FRA-2013-0095.
    Applicant: Grenada Railway, LLC, Ms. Rhonda Nicoloff, Managing
Member, 1505 South Redwood Road, Salt Lake City, UT 84104.
    GRYR seeks approval of the proposed discontinuance and removal of
the automatic block signal (ABS) system between Southaven, MS, Milepost
(MP) 403.0, and Grenada, MS, MP 617.4.
    The reasons given for the proposed changes are that GRYR only
operates one train a day at any given time, under track warrant
control, making the ABS system redundant as well as expensive to
maintain, with replacement parts becoming hard to acquire.
    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
Avenue SE., W12-140, Washington, DC 20590. The Docket Operations
Facility is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except
Federal Holidays.
    Interested parties are invited to participate in these proceedings
by submitting written views, data, or comments. FRA does not anticipate
scheduling a public hearing in connection with these proceedings since
the facts do not appear to warrant a hearing. If any interested party
desires an opportunity for oral comment, they should notify FRA, in
writing, before the end of the comment period and specify the basis for
their request.
    All communications concerning these proceedings should identify the
appropriate docket number and may be submitted by any of the following
methods:
     Web site: http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online
instructions for submitting comments.
     Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.
     Mail: Docket Operations Facility, U.S. Department of
Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., W12-140, Washington, DC

     Hand Delivery: 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Room W12-140,
Washington, DC 20590, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday,
except Federal Holidays.
    Communications received by November 12, 2013 will be considered by
FRA before final action is taken. Comments received after that date
will be considered as far as practicable.
    Anyone is able to search the electronic form of any written
communications and comments received into any of our dockets by the
name of the individual submitting the comment (or signing the document,
if submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor union, etc.).
