SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-73159; File No. SR-NYSEMKT-2014-78]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE MKT LLC; Notice of Filing and
Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Amend Commentary .01
to Rule 341 To Specify the Registration and Examination Requirements
for Certain Persons Engaged in Supervisory Activities

September 22, 2014.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act'') \2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that on September 16, 2014, NYSE MKT LLC (the ``Exchange'' or
``NYSE MKT'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II
below, which Items have been prepared by the self-regulatory
organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

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

    The Exchange proposes to proposes [sic] to amend Commentary .01 to
Rule 341 to specify the registration and examination requirements for
certain persons engaged in supervisory activities. The text of the
proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's Web site at
www.nyse.com, at the principal office of the Exchange, and at the
Commission's Public Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization
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 those 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 parts of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
(a) Purpose [sic]
    The Exchange proposes to amend Commentary .01 to Rule 341 to
specify the registration and examination requirements for a person
engaged in the supervision of register [sic] representatives (``General
Securities Representatives'') and Proprietary Traders.
    Rule 341(a) and Commentary .01 to Rule 341 prescribe the
registration and qualification requirements for individuals performing
certain duties on behalf of a member or member organization, including
regarding General Securities Representatives and their supervisors and
Proprietary Traders and their supervisors. A General Securities
Representative is any person engaged in the purchase or sale of
securities or other similar instruments on an agency basis or for the
proprietary account of a member or member organization with which he or
she is associated, as an employee or otherwise. A Proprietary Trader is
any person engaged in the purchase or sale of securities or other
similar instruments for the proprietary account of a member or member
organization with which he or she is associated, as an employee or
otherwise, and who does not transact any business with the public.\4\
The General Securities Registered Representative Examination (``Series
7'') is the qualifying examination for General Securities
Representatives and the Proprietary Traders Examination (``Series 56'')
is the qualifying examination for Proprietary Traders. \5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The term ``Proprietary Trader'' does not include a person
who is required to be registered as a Market Maker in accordance
with Rule 921NY or a Market Maker Authorized Trader in accordance
with Rule 921.1NY. See Commentary .01 to Rule 341.
    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 66453 (February 23,
2012), 77 FR 12345 (February 29, 2012) (SR-NYSEAmex-2012-11). An
individual may also register as a Proprietary Trader by passing the
General Securities Registered Representative Examination (``Series 7
Examination'') without passing the Series 56 Examination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to prescribe within Commentary .01 to Rule
341 that a supervisor of a General Securities Representative must
register and qualify as a General Securities Principal in Web CRD \6\
by passing the General Securities Principal Qualification Examination
(``Series 24''). The Exchange presently requires persons acting in a
supervisory capacity to be registered as a General Securities Principal
and pass the Series 24 and Series 7. This filing serves to codify the
existing registration and examination requirements and does not impart
any new obligations on individuals registered as a [sic] General
Securities Principal. The Exchange also proposes to prescribe within
Commentary .01 to Rule 341 that a supervisor of a Proprietary Trader
may choose to register and qualify as a Proprietary Trader Principal in
Web CRD if such supervisor's supervisory responsibilities are limited
solely to supervising Proprietary Traders, by passing the Series 24
Examination and registering pursuant to Exchange Rules as a Proprietary
Trader. The Proprietary Trader Principal registration would be a
limited principal registration and would not authorize an individual to
supervise non-Proprietary Traders. Therefore, the Exchange also
proposes to specify within Commentary .01 to Rule 341 that a
Proprietary Trader Principal would not be qualified to function in a
Principal or supervisory capacity with responsibility over any area of
business other than that involves [sic] proprietary trading.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Web CRD is the central licensing and registration system for
the U.S. securities industry and its regulators operated by the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (``FINRA'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed change is not otherwise intended to address any other
issues and the Exchange is not aware of any problems that Amex Trading
Permit Holders (``ATP Holders'') \7\ or their registered persons would
have in complying with the proposed change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Rule 900.2NY(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange is also proposing to amend Commentary .01 to Rule 341
by renumbering existing rule text. This non-substantive change is being
proposed simply to structure the rule in a more clear and concise
format.
2. Statutory Basis
(b) Statutory Basis [sic]
    The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(c) of the
Act,\8\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(c)(3) of
the Act,\9\ in particular, which authorizes the Exchange to prescribe
standards of training, experience and competence for registered persons
of ATP Holders. The Exchange believes that the proposed examination
requirements for General Securities Principals and Proprietary Trader
Principals will help to ensure that they are competent to perform such
supervisory functions and the registration requirements will result in
their being subject to ongoing training

requirements under the Exchange's rules.\10\ The Exchange believes that
the proposed rule change is reasonable because the Proprietary Trader
Principal category is limited and tailored to persons supervising
proprietary trading functions and because other markets already
recognize Proprietary Trader Principal registration and related
examination requirements.\11\ The Exchange also believes that it is
reasonable to prescribe the Series 24 Examination as the appropriate
examination for persons acting in a supervisory capacity because the
Series 24 Examination tests knowledge and understanding of supervision-
related rules, including but not limited to rules governing sales
practices, books and records, account suitability, trade review and
trade reporting requirements.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(c).
    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(c)(3).
    \10\ Rule 341A specifies the continuing education requirements
for registered persons subsequent to their initial qualification and
registration, which consist of a Regulatory Element and a Firm
Element. The S201 Regulatory Element Program is required for
registered Supervisors/Principals.
    \11\ See, e.g., Commentary .08 to Chicago Board Options Exchange
(``CBOE'') Rule 3.6A and Securities Exchange Act Release No. 67000
(May 16, 2012), 77 FR 30338 (May 22, 2012) (SR-CBOE-2012-039). See
also NASDAQ OMX BX (``BX'') Rule 1022(h) and Securities Exchange Act
Release No. 65056 (August 8, 2011), 76 FR 50279 (August 12, 2011)
(SR-BX-2011-053).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange also believes that the proposed rule change is
consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act,\12\ in general, and furthers
the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\13\ in particular,
because it is 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 mechanisms of, a free and open market and a national market
system and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest
and because it is not designed to permit unfair discrimination between
customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers. The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change accomplishes these objectives by enabling
individuals to qualify for registration with the Exchange by passing a
qualification examination that specifically addresses industry topics
that establish the foundation for the regulatory and procedural
knowledge necessary for such persons electing to register as a General
Securities Principal or a Proprietary Trader Principal.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For these reasons, the Exchange believes that the proposal is
consistent with the Act.

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

Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition [sic]

    In accordance with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,\14\ the Exchange
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. Specifically, the Exchange does not believe
that the introduction of examination requirements for General
Securities Principal and Proprietary Trader Principal registration will
affect intermarket competition because the Exchange anticipates that
other markets will similarly adopt, or other markets have adopted,
rules requiring such registration and examination.\15\ In addition, the
Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will affect
intramarket competition because all similarly situated registered
persons of ATP Holders, e.g., registered persons maintaining the same
categories of registration, are required to complete the same
qualification examinations and maintain the same registrations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(8).
    \15\ See supra note 9 [sic].
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

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

    Because the proposed rule change does not: (i) Significantly affect
the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any
significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative prior to
30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as
the Commission may designate, if consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest, the proposed rule change has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \16\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day operative
delay so that the proposal may become operative upon filing. The
Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest, as
this proposed rule change will make NYSE MKT's rules consistent with
those of the other markets which already provide for the Proprietary
Trader Principal category of registration and set forth the
qualification requirements for Proprietary Trader Principals.\17\
Therefore, the Commission designates the proposal operative upon
filing.\18\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ The Commission notes that, with respect to the General
Securities Principal registration category, NYSE MKT states that it
is codifying an existing requirement.
    \18\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,
the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact on
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings under
Section 19(b)(2)(B) \19\ of the Act to determine whether the proposed
rule change should be approved or disapproved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(B).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Why is EPA using a direct final rule?

    EPA is publishing this rule without a prior proposed rule because
EPA views this as a noncontroversial action and anticipates no adverse
comment. EPAAR Parts 1501, 1505, 1516, 1528, 1529, 1532, and 1552 are
being amended to make administrative changes to the EPAAR. If EPA
receives adverse comment, a timely withdrawal will be published in the
Federal Register informing the public that the rule will not take
effect. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time.

II. Does this action apply to me?

    The EPAAR applies to contractors who have a contract with the EPA.

III. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

    A. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
http://www.regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of
the information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk
or CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM
as CBI, and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    B. Tips for Preparing Your Comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
     Identify the rulemaking by docket number and other
identifying information (subject heading, Federal Register date and
page number).
     Follow directions--The agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
     Explain why you agree or disagree, suggest alternatives,
and substitute language for your requested changes.
     Describe any assumptions and provide any technical
information and/or data that you used.
     If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how
you arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
     Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns, and
suggest alternatives.
     Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the
use of profanity or personal threats.

     Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.

IV. Background

    EPAAR Parts 1501, 1505, 1516, 1528, 1529, 1532, and 1552 are being
amended to make administrative changes.

V. Final Rule

    This direct final rule makes the following changes: (1) Corrects
references in EPAAR 1501.370 to read ``1511.011-70 and 1511.011-72''
instead of ``1510.011-70 and 1510.011-72'' and ``1552.211-72'' instead
of ``1552.210-72''; (2) corrects EPAAR 1505.203(a) to read ``Government
Point of Entry (GPE)'' instead of ``Commerce Business Daily (CBD)'';
(3) corrects reference in EPAAR 1516.301-70 to read ``1552.211-73''

commercial time and materials'' instead of ``fixed rate''; (8) corrects
EPAAR 1552.211-78 to read ``Contracting Officer's Representative
(COR)'' instead of ``Project Officer''; (9) corrects the web address in
EPAAR 1552.211-79(d) to read ``http://www2.epa.gov/irmpoli8/current-information-directives'' instead of ``http://wpa.gov/docs/irmpoli8/policies/index.htlm''; (10) corrects the prescription in EPAAR

materials'' instead of ``fixed rate''; (17) increases the number of
fill-in lines in paragraph (a) of EPAAR clause 1552.237-72 from two to
15; and (18) corrects the EPAAR 1552.242-70 prescription to add ``and
non-commercial time and materials'' after ``cost-reimbursement.''

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive
Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review

    This action is not a significant regulatory action and was
therefore not submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
for review.

B. Paperwork Reduction Act

    This action does not impose an information collection burden under
the PRA because it does not contain any information collection
activities.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), as Amended by the Small Business
Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (SBREFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et
seq.

    I certify that this action will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the RFA. In
making this determination, the impact of concern is any significant
adverse economic impact on small entities. An agency may certify that a
rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities if the rule relieves regulatory burden, has no
net burden or otherwise has a positive economic effect on the small
entities subject to the rule. This action amends EPAAR Parts 1501,
1505, 1516, 1528, 1529, 1532, and 1552 to make administrative changes.
We have therefore concluded that this action will have no net
regulatory burden for all directly regulated small entities.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    This action does not contain an unfunded mandate of $100 million or
more as described in UMRA, 2 U.S.C. 1531-1538, and does not
significantly or uniquely affect small governments. The action imposes
no enforceable duty on any state, local or tribal governments or the
private sector.

E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism

    This action does not have federalism implications. It will not have
substantial direct effects 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.

F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments

    This action does not have tribal implications, as specified in
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). Thus, Executive
Order 13175 does not apply to this action. In the spirit of Executive
Order 13175, and consistent with EPA policy to promote communication
between EPA and Tribal governments, EPA specifically solicits
additional comment on this rule from Tribal officials.

G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks

    EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997)
as applying only to those regulatory actions that concern health or
safety risks, such that the analysis required under section 5-501 of
the Executive Order has the potential to influence the regulation. This
action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it does not
establish an environmental standard intended to mitigate health or
safety risks.

H. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use

    This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355
(May 22, 2001)), because it is not a significant regulatory action
under Executive Order 12866.

I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995

    This rulemaking does not involve technical standards.

J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations

    Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, (February 16, 1994)) establishes
federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision
directs federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and
permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission
by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high
and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs,
policies, and activities on minority populations and low-income
populations in the United States. EPA has determined that this final
rule will not have disproportionately high and adverse human health or
environmental effects on minority or low-income populations because it
does not affect

the level of protection provided to human health or the environment.

K. Congressional Review

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. Section 804 exempts from section 801 the following types
of rules (1) rules of particular applicability; (2) rules relating to
agency management or personnel; and (3) rules of agency organization,
procedure, or practice that do not substantially affect the rights or
obligations of non-agency parties. 5 U.S.C. 804(3). EPA is not required
to submit a rule report regarding this action under section 801 because
this is a rule of agency organization, procedure, or practice that does
not substantially affect the rights or obligations of non-agency
parties.

Director, Office of Acquisition Management.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-261, OMB Control No. 3235-0274]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736

Extension:
    Rule 17Ad-11

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (``OMB'') a request for approval of

extension of the previously approved collection of information provided
for in Rule 17Ad-11 (17 CFR 240.17Ad-11), under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
    Rule 17Ad-11 requires every registered recordkeeping transfer agent
to report certain information to issuers and its appropriate regulatory
agency in the event that the aggregate market value of an ``aged record
difference'' exceeds certain thresholds. A ``record difference'' occurs
when the number of shares or principal dollar amount of securities in
an issuer's records do not equal those in the master securityholder
file as indicated, for instance, on certificates presented to the
transfer agent for purchase, redemption or transfer. An ``aged record
difference'' is a record difference that has existed for more than 30
calendar days. In addition, the rule requires every registered
recordkeeping transfer agent to report certain information to issuers
and its appropriate regulatory agency concerning buy-ins of all issues
for which it acts as recordkeeping transfer agent. Further, the rule
requires every registered recordkeeping transfer agent to report to its
appropriate regulatory agency when it has failed to post certificate
detail to the master securityholder file within five business days of
the time required by Rule 17Ad-10 (17 CFR 240.17Ad-10). Transfer agents
must also maintain a copy of any report required under Rule 17Ad-11 for
a period of not less than three years following the date of the report,
the first year in an easily accessible place.
    Because the information required by Rule 17Ad-11 is already
available to transfer agents, any collection burden for small transfer
agents is minimal. Based on a review of the number of Rule 17Ad-11
reports the Commission, the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, and the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (collectively, the ``appropriate regulatory
agencies'') received since 2015, the Commission staff estimates that 8
respondents will file a total of approximately 10 reports annually. The
Commission staff estimates that, on average, each report can be
completed in 30 minutes. Therefore, the total annual time burden for
the entire transfer agent industry is approximately 5 hours (0.5 hours
x 10 reports). Assuming an average hourly rate of $72 for a compliance
staff employee at a transfer agent, the average total internal
compliance cost for each report is $36. The total annual internal cost
of compliance for the estimated 8 respondents is thus approximately
$360 ($36 per report x 10 reports).
    The retention period for the recordkeeping requirement under Rule
17Ad-11 is not less than three years following the date of a report
prepared pursuant to the rule. The recordkeeping requirement under Rule
17Ad-11 is mandatory to assist the Commission and other regulatory
agencies in monitoring transfer agents who are not performing their
functions promptly and accurately. This rule does not involve the
collection of confidential information.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    The public may view background documentation for this information
collection at the following website: www.reginfo.gov. Find this
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information
collection should be sent by June 13, 2022 to (i) www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain and (ii) David Bottom, Director/Chief Information
Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o John Pezzullo, 100 F

[Docket No. USCG-2015-0221]
RIN 1625-AA00

Safety Zone: Giants Enterprises Fireworks Display, San Francisco
Bay, San Francisco, CA

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary safety zone in the
navigable waters of the San Francisco Bay near AT&T Park in support of
Giants Enterprises Fireworks Display on May 22, 2015. This safety zone
is established to ensure the safety of participants and spectators from
the dangers associated with pyrotechnics. Unauthorized persons or
vessels are prohibited from entering into, transiting through, or
remaining in the safety zone without permission of the Captain of the
Port or their designated representative.

DATES: This rule is effective on May 22, 2015. This rule will be
enforced from 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. on May 22, 2015.

ADDRESSES: Documents mentioned in this preamble are part of docket

NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

A. Regulatory History and Information

    The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary final rule without prior
notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section
4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This
provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and
opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those
procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.'' Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good
cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule as it would be impracticable due to the short
notice of the event. The Coast Guard received the information about the
fireworks display on March 24, 2015, and it would be impracticable to
accept comments before the fireworks display. Because of the dangers
posed by the pyrotechnics used in this fireworks display, the safety
zone is necessary to provide for the safety of event participants,
spectators, spectator craft, and other vessels transiting the event
area.
    Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that good cause
exists for making this rule effective less than 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register due to the short notice of the
event.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for the proposed rule is 33 U.S.C 1231; 46 U.S.C.
Chapter 701, 3306, 3703; 50 U.S.C. 191, 195; 33 CFR 1.05-1, 6.04-1,
6.04-6, 160.5; Public Law 107-295, 116 Stat. 2064; Department of
Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1, which collectively authorize
the Coast Guard to establish safety zones.
    Giants Enterprises will sponsor the Giants Enterprises Fireworks
Display on May 22, 2015, near Pier 48 in San Francisco, CA in
approximate position 37[deg]46'40'' N, 122[deg]22'58'' W (NAD83) as
depicted in National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
Chart 18650. From 11 a.m. until 8:50 p.m. on May 22, 2015, the
fireworks barge will be loading pyrotechnics at Pier 50 in San
Francisco, CA. From 8:50 p.m. to 9 p.m. on May 22, 2015 the loaded
fireworks barge will transit from Pier 50 to the launch site near Pier
48 in approximate position 37[deg]46'40'' N, 122[deg]22'58'' W (NAD 83)
where it will remain until the commencement of the fireworks display. A
10 minute fireworks display is scheduled to begin at 9:20 p.m. on May
22, 2015.
    The fireworks display is meant for entertainment purposes. A
restricted area around the fireworks barge is necessary to protect
spectators, vessels, and other property from the hazards associated
with pyrotechnics.

C. Discussion of the Final Rule

    The Coast Guard will enforce a safety zone in navigable waters
around and under a fireworks barge within a radius of 100 feet during
the loading, transit, and arrival of the fireworks barge to the display
location and until the start of the fireworks display. The safety zone
will increase in size and encompass the navigable waters around and
under the fireworks barge within a radius of 700 feet in approximate
position 37[deg]46'40'' N, 122[deg]22'58'' W (NAD 83) for the Giants
Enterprises Fireworks Display. At the conclusion of the fireworks
display the safety zone shall terminate.
    The effect of the temporary safety zone will be to restrict
navigation in the vicinity of the launch site until the conclusion of
the scheduled display. Except for persons or vessels authorized by the
Coast Guard Patrol Commander, no person or vessel may enter or remain
in the restricted area. These regulations are needed to keep spectators
and vessels away from the immediate vicinity of the launch site to
ensure the safety of participants, spectators, and transiting vessels.

D. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on these statutes and executive orders.

1. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f)
of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, as
supplemented by Executive Order 13563, Improving Regulation and
Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential
costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of Executive Order 12866 or
under section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under those Orders.
    We expect the economic impact of this rule will not rise to the
level of necessitating a full Regulatory Evaluation. The safety zone is
limited in duration, and is limited to a narrowly tailored geographic
area. In addition, although this rule restricts access to the waters
encompassed by the safety zone, the effect of this rule will not be
significant because the local waterway users will be notified via
public Broadcast Notice to Mariners to ensure the safety zone will
result in minimum impact. The entities most likely to be affected are
waterfront facilities, commercial vessels, and pleasure craft engaged
in recreational activities.

2. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601-612, as
amended, requires federal agencies to consider the potential impact of
regulations on small entities during rulemaking. The term ``small
entities'' comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations
that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their
fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than
50,000.
    This rule may affect owners and operators of waterfront facilities,
commercial vessels, and pleasure craft engaged in recreational
activities and sightseeing. This safety zone would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
for the following reasons. This safety zone would be activated, and
thus subject to enforcement, for a limited duration. When the safety
zone is activated, vessel traffic could pass safely around the safety
zone. The maritime public will be advised in advance of this safety
zone via Broadcast Notice to Mariners.

3. Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small
entities in understanding this rule. If the rule would affect your
small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you have
questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance, please
contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT,
above.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or
action of the Coast Guard.

4. Collection of Information

    This rule will not call for a new collection of information under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

5. Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has 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. We have analyzed this rule under that Order and determined
that this rule does not have implications for federalism.

6. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so that
your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or
security of people, places or vessels.

7. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.

8. Taking of Private Property

    This rule will not cause a taking of private property or otherwise
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental
Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property
Rights.

9. Civil Justice Reform

    This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation,
eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

10. Protection of Children

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule
is not an economically significant rule and does not create an
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may
disproportionately affect children.

11. Indian Tribal Governments

    This rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more
Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.

12. Energy Effects

    This action is not a ``significant energy action'' under Executive
Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect
Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use.

13. Technical Standards

    This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

14. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have determined
that this action is one of a category of actions that do not
individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human
environment. This rule involves a safety zone of limited size and
duration. This rule is categorically excluded from further review under
paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2-1 of the Commandant Instruction. An
environmental analysis checklist supporting this determination and a
Categorical Exclusion Determination are available in the docket where
indicated under ADDRESSES. We seek any comments or information that may
lead to the discovery of a significant environmental impact from this
rule.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-87077; File No. SR-NYSENAT-2019-21]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE National, Inc.; Notice of
Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Extend
the Pilot Related to the Market-Wide Circuit Breaker in Rule 7.12

September 24, 2019.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act'') \2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that on September 18, 2019, NYSE National, Inc. (``NYSE
National'' or the ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described
in Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by the self-
regulatory organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

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

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

    The Exchange proposes to extend the pilot related to the market-
wide circuit breaker in Rule 7.12. The proposed rule change is
available on the Exchange's website at www.nyse.com, at the principal
office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization
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 those 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 parts of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    Rule 7.12 provides a methodology for determining when to halt
trading in all stocks due to extraordinary market volatility (i.e.,
market-wide circuit breakers). The market-wide circuit breaker
(``MWCB'') mechanism under Rule 7.12 was approved by the Commission to
operate on a pilot basis,\4\ the term of which was to coincide with the
pilot period for the Plan to Address Extraordinary Market Volatility
Pursuant to Rule 608 of Regulation NMS (the ``LULD Plan''),\5\
including any extensions to the pilot period for the LULD Plan.\6\ The
Commission recently approved an amendment to the LULD Plan for it to
operate on a permanent, rather than pilot, basis.\7\ In light of the
proposal to make the LULD Plan permanent, the Exchange amended Rule
7.12 to untie the pilot's effectiveness from that of the LULD Plan and
to extend the pilot's effectiveness to the close of business on October
18, 2019.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 67090 (May 31,
2012), 77 FR 33531 (June 6, 2012) (SR-NSX-2011-11) (approving
amendments to Rule 11.20A). Rule 7.12 replaced Rule 11.20A without
any substantive differences. See Securities Exchange Act Release No.
83289 (May 17, 2018), 83 FR 23968 (May 23, 2018) (SR-NYSENAT-2018-
02).
    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 67091 (May 31,
2012), 77 FR 33498 (June 6, 2012). The LULD Plan provides a
mechanism to address extraordinary market volatility in individual
securities.
    \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 67090 (May 31,
2012), 77 FR 33531 (June 6, 2012) (SR-NSX-2011-11) (Approval Order);
and 68779 (January 31, 2013), 78 FR 8638 (February 6, 2013) (SR-NSX-
2013-04) (Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed
Rule Change to Delay the Operative Date of Rule 11.20A).
    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 85623 (April 11,
2019), 84 FR 16086 (April 17, 2019).
    \8\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 85572 (April 9,
2019), 84 FR 15257 (April 15, 2019) (SR-NYSENAT-2019-08).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange now proposes to amend Rule 7.12 to extend the pilot to
the close of business on October 18, 2020. This filing does not propose
any substantive or additional changes to Rule 7.12. The Exchange will
use the extension period to develop with the other SROs rules and
procedures that would allow for the periodic testing of the performance
of the MWCB mechanism, with industry member participation in such
testing. The extension will also permit the exchanges to consider
enhancements to the MWCB processes such as modifications to the Level 3
process.
    The market-wide circuit breaker under Rule 7.12 provides an
important, automatic mechanism that is invoked to promote stability and
investor confidence during a period of significant stress when
securities markets experience extreme broad-based declines. All U.S.
equity exchanges and FINRA adopted uniform rules on a pilot basis
relating to market-wide circuit breakers in 2012 (``MWCB Rules''),
which are designed to slow the effects of extreme price movement
through coordinated trading halts across securities markets when severe
price declines reach levels that may exhaust market liquidity.\9\
Market-wide circuit breakers provide for trading halts in all equities
and options markets during a severe market decline as measured by a
single-day decline in the S&P 500 Index.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 67090 (May 31,
2012), 77 FR 33531 (June 6, 2012) (SR-BATS-2011-038; SR-BYX-2011-
025; SR-BX-2011-068; SR-CBOE-2011-087; SR-C2-2011-024; SR-CHX-2011-
30; SR-EDGA-2011-31; SR-EDGX-2011-30; SR-FINRA-2011-054; SR-ISE-
2011-61; SR-NASDAQ-2011-131; SR-NSX-2011-11; SR-NYSE-2011-48; SR-
NYSEAmex-2011-73; SR-NYSEArca-2011-68; SR-Phlx-2011-129) (``MWCB
Approval Order'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to Rule 7.12, a market-wide trading halt will be triggered
if the S&P 500 Index declines in price by specified percentages from
the prior day's closing price of that index. Currently, the triggers
are set at three circuit breaker thresholds: 7% (Level 1), 13% (Level
2), and 20% (Level 3). A market decline that triggers a Level 1 or
Level 2 halt after 9:30 a.m. ET and before 3:25 p.m. ET would halt
market-wide trading for 15 minutes, while a similar market decline at
or after 3:25 p.m. ET would not halt market-wide trading. A market
decline that triggers a Level 3 halt, at any time during the trading
day, would halt market-wide trading until the primary listing market
opens the next trading day.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section
6(b) of the Act,\10\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,\11\ in particular, in that it is designed to
promote just and equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments
to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national
market system, and, in general to protect investors and the public
interest. The market-wide circuit breaker mechanism under Rule 7.12 is
an important, automatic mechanism that is invoked to promote stability
and investor confidence during a period of

significant stress when securities markets experience extreme broad-
based declines. Extending the market-wide circuit breaker pilot for an
additional year would ensure the continued, uninterrupted operation of
a consistent mechanism to halt trading across the U.S. markets while
the Exchange, with the other SROs, consider and develop rules and
procedures that would allow for the periodic testing of the performance
of the MWCB mechanism, which would include industry member
participation in such testing. The extension will also permit the
exchanges to consider enhancements to the MWCB processes such as
modifications to the Level 3 process.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange also believes that the proposed rule change promotes
just and equitable principles of trade in that it promotes transparency
and uniformity across markets concerning when and how to halt trading
in all stocks as a result of extraordinary market volatility. Based on
the foregoing, the Exchange believes the benefits to market
participants from the MWCB under Rule 7.12 should continue on a pilot
basis because the MWCB will promote fair and orderly markets, and
protect investors and the public interest.

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act because the proposal would
ensure the continued, uninterrupted operation of a consistent mechanism
to halt trading across the U.S. markets while the Exchange, in
conjunction with the other SROs, consider and develop rules and
procedures that would allow for the periodic testing of the performance
of the MWCB mechanism. Furthermore, as noted above, the extension will
permit the exchanges to consider enhancements to the MWCB processes
such as modifications to the Level 3 process.
    Further, the Exchange understands that FINRA and other national
securities exchanges will file proposals to extend their rules
regarding the market-wide circuit breaker pilot. Thus, the proposed
rule change will help to ensure consistency across market centers
without implicating any competitive issues.

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

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

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

    Because the proposed rule change does not: (i) Significantly affect
the protection of investors or the public interest; (ii) impose any
significant burden on competition; and (iii) become operative prior to
30 days from the date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as
the Commission may designate, if consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest, the proposed rule change has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \12\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
requires a self-regulatory organization to give the Commission
written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change at
least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed
rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission.
The Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
    \13\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings under
Section 19(b)(2)(B) \14\ of the Act to determine whether the proposed
rule change should be approved or disapproved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(B).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

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

SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this
notice announces that the Information Collection Requirements (ICRs)
abstracted below have been forwarded to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for review and comment. The ICRs describes the nature of
the information collections and their expected burdens. The Federal
Register notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on the
following collections of information was published on January 23, 2013.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before April 26, 2013.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Robert Brogan, Office of Planning
and Evaluation Division, RRS-21, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200
New Jersey Ave. SE., Mail Stop 25, Washington, DC 20590 (telephone:
(202) 493-6292), or Ms. Kimberly Toone, Office of Information
Technology, RAD-20, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200 New Jersey
Ave. SE., Mail Stop 35, Washington, DC 20590 (telephone: (202) 493-
6132). (These telephone numbers are not toll-free.)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA),
Public Law 104-13, Sec.  2, 109 Stat. 163 (1995) (codified as revised
at 44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), and its implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to issue two notices seeking public
comment on information collection activities before OMB may approve
paperwork packages. 44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.5, 1320.8(d)(1),
1320.12. On January 23, 2013, FRA published a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register soliciting comment on ICRs that the agency was seeking
OMB approval. 78 FR 4978. FRA received no comments after issuing this
notice. Accordingly, DOT announces that these information collection
activities have been re-evaluated and certified under 5 CFR 1320.5(a)
and forwarded to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.12(c).
    Before OMB decides whether to approve these proposed collections of
information, it must provide 30 days for public comment. 44 U.S.C.
3507(b); 5 CFR 1320.12(d). Federal law requires OMB to approve or
disapprove paperwork packages between 30 and 60 days after the 30 day
notice is published. 44 U.S.C. 3507 (b)-(c); 5 CFR 1320.12(d); see also
60 FR 44978, 44983, Aug. 29, 1995. OMB believes that the 30 day notice
informs the regulated community to file relevant comments and affords
the agency adequate time to digest public comments before it renders a
decision. 60 FR 44983, Aug. 29, 1995. Therefore, respondents should
submit their respective comments to OMB within 30 days of publication
to best ensure having their full effect. 5 CFR 1320.12(c); see also 60
FR 44983, Aug. 29, 1995.
    The summaries below describe the nature of the information
collection requirements (ICRs) and the expected burden. The revised
requirements are being submitted for clearance by OMB as required by
the PRA.

    Title: Passenger Train Emergency Preparedness.
    OMB Control Number: 2130-0545.
    Type of Request: Extension without change of a currently approved
collection.
    Affected Public: Railroads.
    Form(s): None.
    Abstract: The collection of information is due to the passenger
train emergency regulations set forth in 49 CFR parts 223 and 239 which
require railroads to meet minimum Federal standards for the
preparation, adoption, and implementation of emergency preparedness
plans connected with the operation of passenger trains, including
freight railroads hosting operations of rail passenger service. The
regulations require luminescent or lighted emergency markings so that
passengers and emergency responders can readily determine where the
closest and most accessible exit routes are located and how the
emergency exit mechanisms are operated. Windows and doors intended for
emergency access by responders for extrication of passengers must be
marked with retro-reflective material so that emergency responders,
particularly in conditions of poor visibility, can easily distinguish
them from the less accessible doors and windows. Records of the
inspection, maintenance, and repair of emergency windows and door
exits, as well as records of operational efficiency tests, will be used
to ensure compliance with the regulations.
    Annual Estimated Burden: 11,520 hours.
    Addressee: Send comments regarding these information collections to
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management
and Budget, 725 Seventeenth Street NW., Washington, DC 20503,
Attention: FRA Desk Officer.
    Comments are invited on the following: Whether the proposed
collections of information are necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Department, including whether the information will
have practical utility; the accuracy of the Department's estimates of
the burden of the proposed information collections; ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and
ways to minimize the burden of the collections of information on
respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
    A comment to OMB is best assured of having its full effect if OMB
receives it within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Federal
Register.

    Authority:  44 U.S.C. 3501-3520.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on March 21, 2013.

procedure.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by modifying Class E airspace at Twin
Falls, ID. Controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate aircraft
using the new VOR SIAP at Twin Falls Joslin Field-Magic Valley
Regional, Twin Falls, ID. This action would enhance the safety and
management of aircraft operations at Twin Falls Joslin Field-Magic
Valley Regional, Twin Falls, ID.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.9S, signed October 3, 2008, and effective October 31,
2008, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in this Order.
    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
Therefore, this proposed regulation; (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. Since
this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures
and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule, when
promulgated, would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106, describes
the authority for the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's authority.
This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it would add additional controlled airspace at Twin Falls Joslin
Field-Magic Valley Regional, Twin Falls, ID.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

    Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me, the Federal
Aviation Administration proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as follows:

PART 71--DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, B, C, D, AND E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIR
TRAFFIC SERVICE ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS

    1. The authority citation for 14 CFR part 71 continues to read as
follows:

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40103, 40113, 40120; E.O. 10854, 24
FR 9565, 3 CFR, 1959-1963 Comp., p. 389.

Sec.  71.1  [Amended]

    2. The incorporation by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 of the FAA Order
7400.9S, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, signed October 3,
2008, and effective October 31, 2008 is amended as follows:

Paragraph 6005 Class E airspace areas extending upward from 700
feet or more above the surface of the earth.
