SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-61280; File No. SR-NFA-2009-01]

National Futures Association; Notice of Filing and Immediate
Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change Relating to Amendments to
Compliance Rule 2-29(h) and the Adoption of an Interpretive Notice
Regarding the Use of On-Line Social Networking Groups To Communicate
With the Public

January 4, 2010.
    Pursuant to Section 19b(7) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-7 under the Act,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on December 4, 2009, National Futures Association (``NFA'') filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``SEC'' or ``Commission'')
the proposed rule change described in Items I, II, and III below, which
Items have been substantially prepared by the self-regulatory
organization.\3\ The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons. NFA also
has filed this proposed rule change concurrently with the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission (``CFTC'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(7).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-7.
    \3\ NFA filed a letter from the CFTC notifying the NFA that it
had determined not to review the proposed rule change. See note 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On December 4, 2009, the NFA requested that the CFTC make a
determination that review of the proposed rule change of NFA is not
necessary. On December 24, 2009, the CFTC notified the NFA that the
CFTC has determined not to review the proposed rule change.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See letter from William Penner, Deputy Director, CFTC, to
Thomas W. Sexton III, Esq., General Counsel, NFA, dated December 24,
2009.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Description and Text of the Proposed
Rule Change

    The amendments to Compliance Rule 2-29(h) require that certain
audio and video advertisements that appear on the Internet--like
similar radio and television advertisements--be submitted to NFA in
advance for review and approval. The proposed Interpretive Notice
reminds Members that on-line communications are subject to the same
standards as other types of communications.
    The text of the proposed rule change and Interpretive Notice is
available on the NFA's Web site (www.nfa.futures.org), at the NFA's

principal office, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the 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 these statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The self-regulatory organization
has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the
most significant aspects of such statements.

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

1. Purpose
    Section 15A(k) of the Act \5\ makes NFA a national securities
association for the limited purpose of regulating the activities of NFA
Members (``Members'') who are registered as brokers or dealers under
Section 15(b)(11) of the Act.\6\ NFA Compliance Rule 2-29(h) applies to
all Members including those registered under Section 15(b)(11).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(k).
    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78o(b)(11).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In December 2008, NFA's FCM, IB, and CPO/CTA Advisory Committees
considered the growing use of social networking groups such as blogs,
chat rooms, and forums to communicate with and solicit customers. As a
result of those discussions, all three committees felt it would be
helpful to issue written guidance reminding Members of their
responsibilities in connection with these on-line communications.
    As part of the process, NFA staff reviewed guidance from the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (``FINRA'') on the same issue.
FINRA guidance states that blogs and bulletin boards are considered
advertisements and are subject to the same requirements as other
advertisements, while participating in a chat room is a public
appearance subject to FINRA rules. The guidance also states that
``[m]ember firms must supervise the operation of any securities-related
blog, bulletin board or chat room hosted by [a registered
representative] or by the firm itself to ensure compliance with FINRA
Conduct Rules and the Federal securities laws.'' \7\ The FINRA guidance
also reminds FINRA members that their supervisory procedures can
prohibit employees from using electronic media to discuss securities
investments if the firm decides the medium is too hard to supervise.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ FINRA, ``Guide to the Internet for Registered
Representatives,'' http://www.finra.org/Industry/Issues/Advertising/
p006118, accessed July 20, 2009.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FINRA has also produced several podcasts discussing on-line
communications. In one podcast, FINRA staff suggest limiting posting
access to a firm's blog or bulletin board to the firm's registered
representatives. If the firm opens it up to a wider audience, however,
FINRA staff advise requiring users to register and agree to the firm's
terms of use.\8\ In another podcast, FINRA staff states that publicly
available social networking sites are advertisements and those with
restricted access are sales literature, subject to the same content,
pre-approval, filing, and recordkeeping requirements applicable to
other types of advertisements and sales literature.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ FINRA February 23, 2009 podcast on ``Electronic
Communications: Blogs, Bulletin Boards and Chat Rooms,'' http://
www.finra.org/Industry/Education/OnlineLearning/Podcasts/index.htm,
accessed July 20, 2009.
    \9\ FINRA March 10, 2009 podcast on ``Electronic Communications:
Social Networking Sites,'' http://www.finra.org/Industry/Education/
OnlineLearning/Podcasts/index.htm, accessed July 20, 2009.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed Interpretive Notice provides guidance that is similar
to the FINRA guidance. It reminds Members that on-line communications
are subject to the same standards as other types of communications.
    NFA has also noticed that profit claims that used to appear on
radio and television are moving to the Internet and showing up on sites
such as YouTube. Therefore, the proposed amendments to Compliance Rule
2-29(h) require that these videos--like similar radio and television
advertisements--be submitted to NFA in advance for review and approval.
Amendments to Compliance Rule 2-29 were previously filed in SR-NFA-
2001-01.
2. Statutory Basis
    The rule change is authorized by, and consistent with, Section
15A(k)(2)(B) of the Act.\10\ That section requires NFA to have rules
that are designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, and, in
general, to protect investors and the public interest, including rules
governing sales practices and advertising of security futures products.
The NFA believes the proposed rule change accomplishes this by
requiring that videos showing profit claims that appear on the
Internet--like similar radio and television advertisements--be
submitted to NFA in advance for review and approval. Additionally, the
NFA believes the proposed Interpretive Notice makes clear that
communications through on-line social networking groups are subject to
the same standards as other types of communications.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(k)(2)(B).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This proposal is not designed to regulate, by virtue of any
authority conferred by the Act, matters not related to the purposes of
the Act or the administration of the association. To the extent that
this proposal regulates activities and transactions other than security
futures, the authority for regulating those activities and transactions
comes from the Commodity Exchange Act rather than the federal
securities laws.

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

    The proposed rule change will have little or no impact on
competition. The proposed Interpretive Notice does not impose new
requirements on Members, but rather makes clear that existing
requirements regarding communications with the public are the same
regardless of the medium used for such communications. Similarly, the
proposed amendments to Compliance Rule 2-29(h) require that audio or
video advertisements that would have to be submitted to NFA for prior
approval if used on the radio or television must also be submitted to
NFA if they are distributed through publicly accessible media, e.g.,
the Internet. Although there may be some burden on members who have
avoided this requirement by only using the Internet to distribute such
advertisements, it is necessary and appropriate to ensure that
communications by NFA Members are not misleading or otherwise
inappropriate.

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

    NFA worked with Member Committees in developing the rule change.
NFA did not, however, publish the rule change to the membership for
comment. NFA did not receive comment letters concerning the rule
change.

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

    On December 24, 2009, the CFTC notified the NFA that it had
determined not to review the proposed rule change and, therefore, NFA,
is permitted to make the amendments effective as of

this date.\11\ At any time within 60 days of the date of effectiveness
of the proposed rule change, the Commission, after consultation with
the CFTC, may summarily abrogate the proposed rule change and require
that the proposed rule change be refiled in accordance with the
provisions of Section 19(b)(1) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See note 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Solicitation of Comments

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:

14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2012-0771; Airspace Docket No. 12-ASW-7]

Establishment of Class E Airspace; Round Mountain, TX

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action establishes Class E airspace at Round Mountain,
TX. Controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate new Area Navigation
(RNAV) Standard Instrument Approach Procedures at West Ranch Airport.
The FAA is taking this action to enhance the safety and management of
Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) operations at the airport.

DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC, June 27, 2013. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under
1 CFR part 51, subject to the annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and
publication of conforming amendments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Scott Enander, Central Service Center,
Operations Support Group, Federal Aviation Administration, Southwest
Region, 2601 Meacham Blvd., Fort Worth, TX 76137; telephone 817-321-
7716.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On November 30, 2012, the FAA published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to establish Class E airspace for
the West Ranch Airport, Round Mountain, TX (77 FR 71367) Docket No.
FAA-2012-0771. Interested parties were invited to participate in this
rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the
FAA. No comments were received. Class E airspace designations are
published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9W dated August 8, 2012,
and effective September 15, 2012, which is incorporated by reference in
14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
Part 71 by establishing Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface to ensure that required controlled airspace exists
for departing aircraft under instrument flight rules, and arriving
aircraft utilizing new standard instrument approach procedures at West
Ranch Airport, Round Mountain, TX. This action enhances the safety and
management of IFR operations at the airport.
    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.
Therefore, this 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 rule, when promulgated, will 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 of 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 establishes controlled airspace at West Ranch Airport, Round
Mountain, TX.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 311a. This airspace action is not expected to
cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist

that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Additional Information About the Proposed Consent Decree

    On October 6, 2016, Plaintiffs filed a complaint alleging that EPA
failed to perform duties mandated by CAA to take final action to
approve or disapprove the December 9, 2013 submitted by the Plaintiff
states, all of which are currently part of the OTR, requesting EPA to
expand the OTR pursuant to 42 U.S.C 7506a(a) to include several upwind
states. Under the terms of the proposed consent decree, EPA must sign a
notice for public comment that proposes certain actions regarding the
December 9, 2013 Petition, no later than January 18, 2017, and must

that are available electronically. Once in the system, key in the
appropriate docket identification number then select ``search''.
    It is important to note that EPA's policy is that public comments,
whether submitted electronically or in paper, will be made available
for public viewing online at www.regulations.gov without change, unless
the comment contains copyrighted material, CBI, or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Information claimed as CBI
and other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute is not
included in the official public docket or in the electronic public
docket. EPA's policy is that copyrighted material, including
copyrighted material contained in a public comment, will not be placed
in EPA's electronic public docket but will be available only in
printed, paper form in the official public docket. Although not all
docket materials may be available electronically, you may still access
any of the publicly available docket materials through the EPA Docket
Center.

B. How and to whom do I submit comments?

    You may submit comments as provided in the ADDRESSES section.
Please ensure that your comments are submitted within the specified
comment period. Comments received after the close of the comment period
will be marked ``late.'' EPA is not required to consider these late
comments.
    If you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you
include your name, mailing address, and an email address or other
contact information in the body of your comment and with any disk or CD
ROM you submit. This ensures that you can be identified as the
submitter of the comment and allows EPA to contact you in case EPA
cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties or needs further
information on the substance of your comment. Any identifying or
contact information provided in the body of a comment will be included
as part of the comment that is placed in the official public docket,
and made available in EPA's electronic public docket. If EPA cannot
read your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot contact you
for clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment.
    Use of the www.regulations.gov Web site to submit comments to EPA
electronically is EPA's preferred method for receiving comments. The
electronic public docket system is an ``anonymous access'' system,
which means EPA will not know your identity, email address, or other
contact information unless you provide it in the body of your comment.
In contrast to EPA's electronic public docket, EPA's electronic mail
(email) system is not an ``anonymous access'' system. If you send an
email comment directly to the Docket without going through
www.regulations.gov, your email address is automatically captured and
included as part of the comment that is placed in the official public

docket, and made available in EPA's electronic public docket.

information about EPA's public docket, visit: http://www.epa.gov/dockets.
    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Hazardous Waste Combustors (40 CFR part 63,
subpart EEE) apply to the following types of new and existing
combustion units that burn hazardous waste: Incinerators, cement kilns,
lightweight aggregate kilns, solid fuel boilers, liquid fuel boilers,
and hydrochloric acid production facilities. In general, all NESHAP
standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and
periodic reports by the owners/

operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to
maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup,
shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or
any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These
notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining
compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to
NESHAP.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of hazardous
waste combustors.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63,
subpart EEE).
    Estimated number of respondents: 180 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, semiannually, and
quarterly.
    Total estimated burden: 62,500 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $9,560,000 (per year), which includes
$2,890,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance
costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the
total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program changes. The
adjustment decrease in burden is due to a decrease in the number of
respondents based on more accurate estimates of the number of existing
and new respondents as provided by the Agency and industry
consultations. The decrease in burden is also a result of the removal
of burden items related to requirements that are not associated with
the standard, testing and installation activities that are not
information collection activities, submittal of certain conditional or
optional information that is not required by the rule, and one-time
activities that have been completed. These changes are further
discussed below. These changes also result in an adjustment decrease in
the number of responses. The number of responses also reflects updates
to clarify those responses related to reporting and that related to
recordkeeping activities where reports are not submitted.
    There is an adjustment increase in the total capital and O&M costs
based on the revised estimates of the number of new respondents. As
discussed below, because this ICR assumes one new HWC unit per year, we
have included capital and O&M costs for CO and O2 CEMS, PM
CEMS, COMs, and CMS. These items were not included in the previously
approved ICR because it was assumed that existing sources had the
equipment required to meet the standard already installed.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
