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

    The NASDAQ Exchange is proposing to modify and simplify pricing for
NASDAQ's Portal Reference Database. The text of the proposed rule
change is below. Proposed new language is italicized; proposed
deletions are in brackets.
* * * * *

7045. PORTAL Reference Database

    The Following Charges shall Apply To Access to the PORTAL Reference
Database

    [(1) For PORTAL data for 2008 and future years, the annual fee is:
1-20 Users $20,000
21 to 100 Users $50,000
101+ Users $100,000]

    [(2)] (1) [For PORTAL data for 1990 to 2007,] [the] The fee for
each year of reference data shall be:
1-20 Users $20,000 (not to exceed $200,000 for access to all PORTAL
historical data files) [from 1990 to 2007)]
21 [to 100]  Users $50,000 (not to exceed $500,000 for
access to all PORTAL historical data files) [from 1990 to 2007)]
[101+ Users] [$100,000 (not to exceed $1,000,000 for access to all
PORTAL historical data files from 1990 to 2007)]

    PORTAL securities are restricted securities, as defined in SEC Rule
144(a)(3) under the Securities Act; or securities that, pursuant to
contract or through terms of the security, upon issuance and
continually thereafter only can be sold pursuant to Regulation S under
the Securities Act, SEC Rule 144A, or SEC Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, or in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of
the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4 thereof and not involving any
public offering that were designated for inclusion in the PORTAL Market
by Nasdaq. PORTAL equity securities are PORTAL securities that
represent an ownership interest in a legal entity, including but not
limited to any common, capital, ordinary, preferred stock, or warrant
for any of the foregoing, shares of beneficial interest, or the
equivalent thereof (regardless of whether voting or non-voting,
convertible or non-convertible, exchangeable or non-exchangeable,

* * * * *

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 NASDAQ Exchange included
statements concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule
change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule
change. The text of these statements may be examined at the places
specified in Item IV below. The NASDAQ Exchange has prepared summaries,
set forth in Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant
aspects of such statements.

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

a. Purpose
    As part of NASDAQ's continuing efforts to enhance the transparency
and efficiency of trading in Rule 144A issues, NASDAQ created and makes
publicly available, for a fee, a consolidated electronic reference
database of information culled from offering documents and applications
for securities seeking designation as a PORTAL security submitted to
NASDAQ since 1990.\4\ The database is fully electronic and allows users
to determine, in addition to other information, a PORTAL issue's name
and offering description, CUSIP, country of incorporation, security
class, maturity class and date, currency denomination, applicable
interest and credit rating, convertibility and call provisions, total
number of shares offered, and date of PORTAL designation. As new issues
sought PORTAL designation, they too were added to the database. Access
to the database is open to all market participants. There is no pro-
rating of these fees. The total cost of access to the full database is
capped based on the number of users at a particular firm. In this
filing, NASDAQ is proposing to the [sic] modify and simplify fees for
users of this database. Under the proposal, NASDAQ will: (1) Eliminate
the separate pricing schedule for more recent PORTAL data; and (2) only
use two tiers, 1-20 users, and 21+ users, for pricing all PORTAL data.
For example, under the old fee structure a firm seeking PORTAL data for
125 users for the years 2008 and 1996 would have been charged $100,000
for the 2008 data, and $100,000 for the 1996 data, for a total of
$200,000. Under the new structure, that same firm will now pay $50,000
for the 2008 data, and $50,000 for the 1996 data, for a total of
$100,000.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ For more information related to the background of The PORTAL
Market, see Securities Exchange Act Release No. 55669 (April 25,
2007); 72 FR 23874 (May 1, 2007). NASDAQ no longer designates
securities as PORTAL securities, and has filed with the Commission a
rule proposal to eliminate its PORTAL Market rules. See Securities
Exchange Act Release No. 60991 (November 12, 2009); 74 FR 60006
(November 19, 2009).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NASDAQ believes that the above price modifications with respect to
the PORTAL Reference Database will encourage the use of historical
information about issuances of restricted equity and debt and provide a
more reliable background upon which market participants can make
investment decisions regarding such securities.
b. Statutory Basis
    NASDAQ believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with
the provisions of Section 6 of the Act,\5\ in general, and with
Sections 6(b)(5) of the Act,\6\ in particular, in that the proposal 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
mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and,
in general, to protect investors and the public interest. NASDAQ also
believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 6 of the Act,\7\ in general, and with Section
6(b)(4) of the Act,\8\ in particular, in that it provides for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and other charges among
members and issuers and other persons using any facility or system
which NASDAQ operates or controls. In connection with the fees, NASDAQ
notes that creation of the PORTAL reference database required the
retrieval, organization, and review of hundreds of thousands of pages
of hard-copy documents as well as the conversion of retrieved
information into electronic form, and its subsequent importation into
the database itself. On an ongoing basis, NASDAQ will also incur
hardware and software costs for the maintenance and storage of PORTAL
reference data.

Finally, NASDAQ notes that the Commission has previously approved the
PORTAL Reference Database and that this filing simplifies and modifies
fees for the database.

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

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

    The NASDAQ Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change
will result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended.

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

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

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

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i)
Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii)
become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \9\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6) thereunder.\10\

requires that a self-regulatory organization submit to the
Commission written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule
change, along with a brief description and text of the proposed rule
change, at least five business days prior to the date of filing of
the proposed rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the
Commission. The Commission notes that the Exchange has satisfied the
five-day pre-filing notice requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission may summarily abrogate 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.L.Hill -Payroll No:43370 -

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC; Notice of
Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change to SPY
Position Limits

July 9, 2015.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on July 8, 2015, NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC (``Phlx'' or ``Exchange'')
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``SEC'' or
``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II
below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The Commission
is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule
change from interested persons.

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

    The Exchange proposes to extend for another twelve (12) month time
period the pilot program to eliminate position limits for options on
the SPDR[supreg] S&P 500[supreg] exchange-traded fund (``SPY ETF'' or
``SPY''),\3\ which list and trade under the symbol SPY (``SPY Pilot
Program'').

are registered trademarks of Standard & Poor's Financial Services
LLC. The SPY ETF represents ownership in the SPDR S&P 500 Trust, a
unit investment trust that generally corresponds to the price and
yield performance of the SPDR S&P 500 Index.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
Web site at http://nasdaqomxphlx.cchwallstreet.com/, at the principal
office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such
statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The purpose of the proposed rule change is to amend Rule 1001,
entitled ``Position Limits,'' to extend the current pilot, which
expires on July 12, 2015 for an additional twelve (12) month time
period to July 12, 2016 (``Extended Pilot''). This filing does not
propose any substantive changes to the SPY Pilot Program. In proposing
to extend the SPY Pilot Program, the Exchange reaffirms its
consideration of several factors that supported the original proposal
of the SPY Pilot Program, including (1) the availability of
economically equivalent products and their respective position limits;
(2) the liquidity of the option and the underlying security; (3) the
market capitalization of the underlying security and the related index;
(4) the reporting of large positions and requirements surrounding
margin; and (5) the potential for market on close volatility.
    The Exchange submitted a report to the Commission on June 11, 2015,
which report reflects, during the time period from December 2014
through May 2015, the trading of standardized SPY options with no
position limits consistent with option exchange provisions.\4\ The
report was prepared in the manner specified in Phlx's prior filing
extending the SPY Pilot Program.\5\ The Exchange notes that it is
unaware of any problems created by the SPY Pilot Program and does not
foresee any as a result of the proposed extension. The proposed
extension will allow the Exchange and the Commission additional time to
further evaluate the pilot program and its effect on the market.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The report is attached as Exhibit 3.
    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 74099 (January 20,
2015), 80 FR 4021 (January 26, 2015) (SR-Phlx-2015-07).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As with the original proposal, related to the SPY Pilot Program,
the Exchange represents that a Pilot Report will be submitted at least
thirty (30) days before the end of the Extended Pilot and would analyze
that period. The Pilot Report will detail the size and different types
of strategies employed with respect to positions established as a
result of the elimination of position limits in SPY. In addition, the
report will note whether any problems resulted due to the no limit
approach and any other information that may be useful in evaluating the
effectiveness of the Extended Pilot. The Pilot Report will

compare the impact of the SPY Pilot Program, if any, on the volumes of
SPY options and the volatility in the price of the underlying SPY
shares, particularly at expiration during the Extended Pilot. In
preparing the report the Exchange will utilize various data elements
such as volume and open interest. In addition the Exchange will make
available to Commission staff data elements relating to the
effectiveness of the SPY Pilot Program.
    Conditional on the findings in the Pilot Report, the Exchange will
file with the Commission a proposal to extend the pilot program, adopt
the pilot program on a permanent basis or terminate the pilot. If the
SPY Pilot Program is not extended or adopted on a permanent basis by
the expiration of the Extended Pilot, the position limits for SPY
options would revert to limits in effect prior to the commencement of
the SPY Pilot Program.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section
6(b) of the Act \6\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section
6(b)(5) of the Act \7\ in particular, in that it is designed to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination
with persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, to
remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open
market and a national market system and, in general, to protect
investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change would be
beneficial to market participants, including market makers,
institutional investors and retail investors, by permitting them to
establish greater positions when pursuing their investment goals and
needs. The Exchange also believes that economically equivalent products
should be treated in an equivalent manner so as to avoid regulatory
arbitrage, especially with respect to position limits. Treating SPY and
SPX options differently by virtue of imposing different position limits
is inconsistent with the notion of promoting just and equitable
principles of trade and removing impediments to perfect the mechanisms
of a free and open market. At the same time, the Exchange believes that
the elimination of position limits for SPY options would not increase
market volatility or facilitate the ability to manipulate the market.

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

    The proposed rule change does not impose any burden on competition
that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of
the Act. In this regard, the Exchange notes that the rule change is
being proposed as a competitive response to similar filings that the
Exchange expects to be filed by other options exchanges. The Exchange
believes this proposed rule change is necessary to permit fair
competition among the options exchanges and to establish uniform
position limits for a multiply listed options class.

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

    No written comments were either solicited or received.

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

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i)
Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii)
become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6) thereunder.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). As required under Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii), the Exchange provided the Commission with written
notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a
brief description and the text of the proposed rule change, at least
five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6) under the
Act \9\ normally does not become operative for 30 days after the date
of its filing. However, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) \10\ permits the
Commission to designate a shorter time if such action is consistent
with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange
has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that
the proposal may become operative immediately upon filing. The Exchange
believes that waiver of the operative delay is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest because it will permit
the SPY Pilot Program to continue without interruption. The Commission
believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest. Therefore, the
Commission hereby waives the operative delay and designates the
proposed rule change operative upon filing.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \11\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,
the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact on
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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:

Electronic Comments

     Use the Commission's Internet comment form (http://www.sec.gov/rules/sro.shtml); or

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

    BOX Options Exchange LLC (the ``Exchange'') proposes to amend its
Fee Schedule for trading on its options facility, BOX Market LLC
(``BOX''). While changes to the fee schedule pursuant to this proposal
will be effective upon filing, the changes will become operative on
July 1, 2012. The text of the proposed rule change is available from
the principal office of the Exchange, at the Commission's Public
Reference Room and also on the Exchange's Internet Web site at http://boxexchange.com.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such
statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend its Fee Schedule. While changes to
the fee schedule pursuant to this proposal will be effective upon
filing, the changes will become operative on July 1, 2012.
    The Exchange proposes to amend Market Maker Exchange Fees for
Auction Transaction responses in Section I of its fee schedule to
implement a tiered schedule to provide potentially discounted fees
based upon a Market Maker's monthly average daily volume (``ADV'').
Market Makers will be assessed a per contract execution fee based on
ADV considering all of their executed transactions on BOX as calculated
at the end of each month. All executions for the month will be charged
the same per contract fee according to the Market Maker's ADV,
according to the table below:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
               Market maker monthly ADV                 Per contract fee
------------------------------------------------------------------------
150,001 contracts and greater........................              $0.13
100,001 contracts to 150,000 contracts...............               0.16
50,001 contracts to 100,000 contracts................               0.18
10,001 contracts to 50,000 contracts.................               0.25
5,001 contracts to 10,000 contracts..................               0.30
1 contract to 5,000 contracts........................               0.35
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This proposal will potentially lower Market Maker fees for all
transactions on BOX. In particular, this may potentially lower Market
Maker fees for Improvement Orders in the Price Improvement Period
(``PIP'') and Responses in the Solicitation or Facilitation Auction
mechanisms on BOX, allowing Market Makers to more effectively compete
for customer order flow in these mechanisms. Currently, Market Makers
may achieve a discounted Exchange Fee rate in these Auction
Transactions as their ADV in Auction Transactions (those transactions
executed through the PIP, Solicitation Auction mechanism, and
Facilitation Auction mechanism) increases past certain break points
(e.g., 20,000 contracts, 50,000 contracts, etc.). The proposed change
would provide Market Makers a potentially discounted Exchange Fee rate
for all of their BOX trades as their monthly ADV for all transactions
on BOX reaches certain break points.
    The Exchange believes that providing this potential discount for
Market Makers in connection with their ADV considering all of their
transactions on BOX rather than only their Auction Transactions will
allow additional Market Makers to benefit from the potential discounts
in the tiered Exchange Fee schedule, and will provide an incentive for
Market Makers to potentially provide greater liquidity on BOX. The
Exchange also believes this may provide an incentive for Market Makers
to provide more competition in BOX Auction Transactions.
    The Exchange also proposes to amend the Market Maker Tiered Fee
Schedule to modify the break point tiers and increase the per contract
fees for Market Makers with monthly ADV of 50,000 contracts or less.
Currently, Market Makers with monthly ADV of up to 10,000 contracts pay
an Exchange Fee of $0.25, and those with ADV of 10,001 to 50,000
contracts pay $0.20. As set forth in the table above, the Exchange
proposes to increase the per contract Exchange Fee for Market Makers
with monthly ADV of 10,001 to 50,000 contracts to $0.25, increase the
per contract Exchange Fee to $0.30 for Market Makers with monthly ADV
of 5,001 to 10,000 contracts, and increase the per contract Exchange
Fee to $0.35 for Market Makers with monthly ADV of 5,000 contracts or
less.
    The Exchange proposes to amend the Tiered Fee Schedule for
Participants that initiate Auction Transactions (``Initiating
Participants''). Currently, Initiating Participants pay a per contract
fee, regardless of account type, that is reduced as the Participant's
monthly ADV in Auction Transactions increases past certain break
points. Currently, Initiating Participants pay $0.25 per contract for
monthly ADV up to 20,000 contracts. The Exchange proposes to amend the
tiers and increase the fees for those Participants with monthly ADV in
Auction Transactions of 10,000 or less. The Exchange proposes to
maintain the $0.25 fee for Initiating Participants with monthly ADV of
10,001 to 20,000 contracts. Additionally, the Exchange proposes to
increase the fee to $0.30 for monthly ADV of 5,001 to 10,000 contracts,
and to $0.35 for monthly ADV of 5,000 contracts or less.
    The proposed tiered fee schedule for Initiating Participants is set
forth below:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                        Per contract fee
    Initiating participant monthly ADV in auction         (all account
                     transactions                            types)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
150,001 contracts and greater........................              $0.10
100,001 contracts to 150,000 contracts...............               0.12
50,001 contracts to 100,000 contracts................               0.15
20,001 contracts to 50,000 contracts.................               0.17
10,001 contracts to 20,000 contracts.................               0.25
5,001 contracts to 10,000 contracts..................               0.30
1 contract to 5,000 contracts........................               0.35
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Finally, the Exchange proposes to increase the fee in Section I of
the Fee Schedule for Broker-Dealer Improvement Orders in the PIP and
Responses in the Solicitation and Facilitation Auction Mechanisms from
$0.25 to $0.35.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposal is consistent with the
requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act,\5\ in general, and Section
6(b)(4) of the Act,\6\ in particular, in that it provides for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among
BOX Options Participants and other persons using its facilities. The
impact of the proposal upon the net fees paid by any particular market
participant will depend on multiple variables, including whether the
Participant is most active on the BOX Book or within Auction
Transactions on BOX.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With regard to Market Maker exchange fees, the Exchange believes it
is reasonable, equitable, and not unfairly discriminatory for BOX
Market Makers to have the opportunity to benefit from potentially
discounted fees based on all of their transactions on BOX. The Exchange
believes that the proposed tiered and potentially discounted fees for
Market Makers that on a daily basis, trade an average daily volume (as
calculated at the end of the month) of more than 5,000 contracts on BOX
represents a fair and equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees,
and other charges as it is aimed at incentivizing these participants to
provide a greater volume of liquidity. The Exchange believes that
giving incentives for this activity will result in increased liquidity
on BOX, and within its auction mechanisms, to the benefit of

all market participants. The increased liquidity also benefits all
investors by deepening the BOX liquidity pool, supporting the quality
of price discovery, promoting market transparency and improving
investor protection. The Exchange believes that the volume based
discounts such as the reducing tiered execution fee proposed for Market
Makers are reasonable and equitable because they are open to all Market
Makers on an equal basis and provide discounts that are reasonably
related to the value of an exchange's market quality associated with
higher levels of market activity, such as higher levels of liquidity
provision and introduction of higher volumes of orders into the price
and volume discovery processes. Finally, Market Makers have obligations
that other Participants do not. In particular, they must maintain
active two-sided markets in the classes in which they are appointed,
and must meet certain minimum quoting requirements. As such, the
Exchange believes it is reasonable and appropriate that Market Makers
be charged fees on BOX that may be comparably lower than other market
participants in certain circumstances, when they provide greater
volumes of liquidity to the market.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Note that if a Market Maker has ADV over 5,000 contracts the
fee that Market Maker is charged for Improvement Orders in the PIP
and Responses in other Auction Transactions may be lower than a
particular Broker-Dealer is charged for an Improvement Order in the
PIP or Response in another Auction Transaction. Note also that if a
Market Maker has ADV over 150,000 contracts, the fee that Market
Maker is charged for Improvement Orders in the PIP and Responses in
other Auction Transactions may be lower than a particular customer
is charged for such orders. As mentioned above, the Exchange
believes this is equitable and not unfairly discriminatory given a
Market Maker's value in providing liquidity to the market and other
related obligations in acting as a Market Maker.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes the Market Maker fees proposed, including an
increase in the fees at the bottom of the tiered schedule for Market
Makers with ADV less than 10,000 contracts, are reasonable, equitable,
and not unfairly discriminatory. BOX operates within a highly
competitive market in which market participants can readily direct
order flow to any other competing venue if they deem fees at a
particular venue to be excessive. Additionally, Market Makers may
choose on which markets they undertake their associated obligations and
fees are a factor in their decision. The proposed Market Maker fees are
intended to attract additional liquidity to BOX by offering market
participants incentives to submit their quotes and orders. The Exchange
believes that we are providing Market Makers a greater opportunity to
receive discounted fees for their BOX transactions. To help offset the
potentially discounted fees for Market Makers providing greater
liquidity, the Exchange believes it is reasonable and equitable to
increase the fees for Market Makers with ADV less than 10,000 contracts
as these Market Makers are not providing the same level of liquidity to
the market.
    The Exchange believes it is equitable and non-discriminatory to
provide Initiating Participants the proposed fees in a tiered structure
to provide potential discount related to participation in BOX Auction
Transactions. The proposed fees related to trading activity in BOX
Auction Transactions are available to all BOX Options Participants that
initiate Auction Transactions, and they may choose to trade on BOX to
take advantage of the discounted fees for doing so, or not. The
Exchange also believes the proposed fees for BOX Participants
initiating Auction Transactions to be reasonable.\8\ Further, the
Exchange believes Participants benefit from the opportunity to
aggregate their trading in the BOX Facilitation and Solicitation
Auction mechanisms with their PIP transactions to attain a discounted
fee tier. The tiered fee structure proposed for trading in the BOX
auction mechanisms aims to attract order flow to BOX, providing greater
potential liquidity within the overall BOX market, and its auction
mechanisms, to the benefit of all BOX market participants.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ The Exchange notes the proposed fees are comparable to fees
currently in place at other exchanges. See International Securities
Exchange, LLC (``ISE'') Schedule of Fees.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that providing a volume discount to Options
Participants that initiate auctions on customer orders is appropriate
to provide an incentive to BOX Participants to submit their customer
orders to BOX, particularly into the PIP for potential price
improvement. Such a discount is necessary to limit the exposure that
Initiating Participants will have to liquidity removal fees, because as
Initiating Participants they will be adding liquidity and will be
charged a fee should their principal order execute against the customer
order in any BOX Auction Transaction. Further, the Exchange believes it
is reasonable and equitable to increase the fees paid by Participants
that have monthly Auction Transaction ADV of 10,000 contracts or less
because the fees will be comparable to that of Market Makers trading on
BOX.
    Further, the Exchange believes the proposed $0.35 fee per executed
contract for Broker-Dealer Improvement Orders in the PIP and Responses
in the Solicitation and Facilitation Auction Mechanisms to be
equitable, reasonable, and not unfairly discriminatory. The Exchange
believes the proposed fee is reasonable because the Exchange does not
charge broker-dealers fees other than transaction fees (e.g., ongoing
systems access fees, ongoing fees for access to BOX market data, or
fees related to order cancellation) as other exchanges. Additionally,
the proposed increase in trading fees charged to broker-dealer
proprietary accounts is designed to be comparable to the costs that
such accounts would be charged at competing venues.\9\ Further, the
Exchange believes that these participants that add liquidity on BOX
will not be impaired by this proposed increase to fees on broker-dealer
proprietary accounts. Broker-Dealer proprietary trading draws on BOX
system resources and results in ongoing operational costs to BOX. As
such, BOX aims to recover its costs by assessing these accounts a
market competitive trading fee for BOX transactions, including Auction
Transactions. The Exchange believes this proposed fee is reasonable
considering, in part, that such accounts are assessed a higher fee
($0.40) for Non-Auction Transactions on BOX. Sending orders to and
trading on BOX are entirely voluntary. Under these circumstances, BOX
transaction fees must be competitive to attract order flow, execute
orders, and grow its market. As such, BOX believes its trading fees
proposed for these Broker-Dealer orders are fair and reasonable. The
Exchange believes other parts of the proposed BOX fee structure (e.g.,
tiered Initiating Participant fees and Liquidity Fees and Credits) will
provide incentives for broker-dealers to send order flow to the BOX PIP
and other auction mechanisms, even with this increased trading fee.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The proposed fee is lower than that for similar orders on
the ISE Schedule of Fees.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes it is equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory to offer BOX Market Makers in Auction Transactions an
opportunity to be charged potentially lower fees than broker-dealers.
Market Makers have obligations that other Participants do not. In
particular, they must maintain active two-sided markets in the classes
in which they are appointed, and must meet certain minimum quoting
requirements. As such, the Exchange believes it is appropriate that
Market Makers be charged potentially lower transaction fees on BOX and
within BOX Auction Transactions. As such, the

Exchange believes the proposed fees for broker-dealers, as compared to
Market Makers, is appropriate and not unfairly discriminatory because
it promotes enhanced BOX market quality.
    The Exchange believes that the proposed Exchange Fees will keep BOX
competitive with other exchanges and apply in such a manner so as to be
equitable among BOX Participants. The Exchange believes the proposed
fees are fair and reasonable and must be competitive with fees in place
on other exchanges. Further, the Exchange believes that this
competitive marketplace impacts the fees proposed for BOX. Greater
liquidity and additional volume executed on BOX aids the price and
volume discovery process.

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. The Exchange believes the
proposed fee changes are reasonably designed to potentially enhance
competition in BOX Auction Transactions, particularly in the PIP.
    The proposed fee changes modify the tiered fees charged to
Initiating Participants based on their monthly ADV in Auction
Transactions. This may result in higher fees for Initiating
Participants with monthly Auction Transaction ADV of less than 20,000
contracts. The proposed changes also increases the fee charged to
broker-dealers for Improvement Orders in the PIP and Responses in the
Solicitation and Facilitation Auction Mechanisms from $0.25 to $0.35.
The Exchange believes this increase will not impair broker-dealers from
adding liquidity and competing in Auction Transactions, so that they
may gain the opportunity to interact with the customer orders seeking
to remove liquidity in Auction Transactions.
    Further, the proposed changes modify the tiered fees for Market
Makers based on their ADV considering all of their BOX transactions.
This may potentially increase or decrease any particular Market Maker's
fees on BOX, including those fees for Auction Transactions, based on
their monthly ADV. The Exchange believes it is likely that more Market
Makers may benefit from lower fees as a result of this proposed change,
lowering their cost to compete in BOX Auction Transactions.
    Considering all of the above, the Exchange believes the proposed
fee changes are reasonably designed to potentially enhance competition
in BOX Auction Transactions, particularly in the PIP, and 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.

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

    No written comments were either solicited or received.

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

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary safety zone on the
navigable waters of Myrtle Beach, SC. This safety zone is necessary to
protect the public from hazards associated with launching fireworks
over navigable waters of the United States. This rule will prohibit
persons and vessels from being in the safety zone unless authorized by
the Captain of the Port Charleston or a designated representative.

DATES: This rule is effective on July 4, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Table of Abbreviations

CFR Code of Federal Regulations
DHS Department of Homeland Security
NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
Sec.  Section
U.S.C. United States Code

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    On April 14, 2016, The North Myrtle Beach Chamber of Commerce
notified the Coast Guard that it will be conducting a fireworks display
from 9:30 p.m. to 9:55 p.m. on July 4, 2016. In response, on June 7,
2016, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed rulemaking titled
North Myrtle Beach 4th of July Fireworks Display. There we stated why
we issued the NPRM, and invited comments on our proposed regulatory
action related to this rule. During the comment period that ended June
22, 2016, we received no comments.
    Under good cause provisions in 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), we are making
this rule effective less than 30 days after its publication in the
Federal Register. The Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective starting July 4, 2016 because it was
impracticable to publish a NPRM and a final rule 30 days or more before
this event due to the limited time available between when the Coast
Guard was notified of this event and the date of the event. This safety
zone is necessary to ensure the safety of life and property during the
Fireworks display and it would be contrary to public interest not to
make this rule effective by July 4, 2016.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The legal basis for the rule is the Coast Guard's authority to
establish a safety zone: 33 U.S.C. 1231. The purpose of this rulemaking
is to ensure the safety of vessels and the navigable waters within a
500-yard radius of the Cherry Grove Fishing Pier before, during, and
after the scheduled event.

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule

    As noted above, we received no comments on our NPRM published June
7, 2016. There are no changes in the regulatory text of this rule from
the proposed rule in the NPRM.
    On July 4, 2016, the North Myrtle Beach Chamber of Commerce will
host a fireworks display from 9:30 p.m. to 9:55 p.m. The safety zone
will cover all navigable waters within 500 yards of the Cherry Grove
Fishing Pier located in Myrtle Beach, SC. The duration of the zone is
intended to ensure the safety of vessels and these navigable waters
before, during, and after the scheduled 9:30 p.m. to 9:55 p.m.
fireworks display. No vessel or person is permitted to enter the safety
zone without obtaining permission from the COTP or a designated
representative. The Coast Guard will provide notice of the regulated
areas by Local Notice to Mariners, Broadcast Notice to Mariners, and
on-scene designated representatives.

V. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
Executive Orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on a number of these statutes and Executive Orders, and we
discuss First Amendment rights of protestors.

A. Regulatory Planning and Review

    Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess the
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits. Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of
quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing
rules, and of promoting flexibility. This rule has not been designated
a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order 12866.
Accordingly, it has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and
Budget.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, duration, and time-of-day of the safety zone. Vessel traffic
will be able to safely transit around this safety zone which would
impact a small designated area of the Atlantic Ocean for less than 1
hour during the evening when vessel traffic is normally low. Moreover,
the Coast Guard will issue a Broadcast Notice to Mariners via VHF-FM
marine channel 16 about the zone, and the rule would allow vessels to
seek permission to enter the zone.

B. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, 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. The Coast Guard received no comments from the Small Business
Administration on this rulemaking. The Coast Guard certifies under 5
U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the
safety zone may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section
IV.A above this rule will not have a significant economic impact on any
vessel owner or operator.
    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
section.
    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.

C. 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).

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Governments

    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 have
determined that it is consistent with the fundamental federalism
principles and preemption requirements described in Executive Order
13132.
    Also, 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. If you believe this rule has implications for federalism or
Indian tribes, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.

E. 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.

F. 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 (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 lasting less than 1 hour that would
prohibit entry within 500 yards of the Veterans Pier. Normally such
actions are categorically excluded from further review under paragraph
34(g) of Figure 2-1 of Commandant Instruction M16475.lD. A preliminary
environmental analysis checklist and 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.

G. 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.

List of Subjects in 33 CFR Part 165

    Harbors, Marine safety, Navigation (water), Reporting and
recordkeeping requirements, Security measures, Waterways.

    For the reasons discussed in the preamble, the Coast Guard amends
33 CFR part 165 as follows:

to enter, transit through, or remain within the regulated area is
granted by the Captain of the Port Charleston or a designated
representative, all persons and vessels receiving such authorization
must comply with the instructions of the Captain of the Port Charleston
or a designated representative.
    (3) The Coast Guard will provide notice of the regulated area by
Local Notice to Mariners, Broadcast Notice to Mariners, and on-scene
designated representatives.
    (d) Enforcement period. This rule will be enforced on July 4, 2016

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP20-493-000]

Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, L.L.C.; Notice of Availability of
the Environmental Assessment for the Proposed; East 300 Upgrade Project

    The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for the East
300 Upgrade Project, proposed by Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, L.L.C.
(Tennessee) in the above-referenced docket. Tennessee requests
authorization to modify two existing compressor stations and construct
one new compressor station in Pennsylvania and New Jersey to create 115
million cubic feet per day of firm transportation capacity on
Tennessee's existing 300 Line. The facilities are proposed to meet the
market need of Tennessee's shipper, Consolidated Edison Company of New
York, Inc.
    The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the East 300 Upgrade Project in
accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy
Act. The FERC staff concludes that approval of the proposed project,
with appropriate mitigating measures, would not constitute a major
federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human
environment.
    The proposed East 300 Upgrade Project includes the following
facilities:
     Modifications at existing Compressor Station 321 in
Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, including the installation of one
Solar Taurus 70

turbine with an International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
rating of 11,107 horsepower and auxiliary facilities;
     modifications at existing Compressor Station 325 in Sussex
County, New Jersey, including installation of one Solar Titan 130
turbine with an ISO rating of 20,500 horsepower and auxiliary
facilities; and
     one new 19,000-horsepower electric-driven Compressor
Station 327 and associated auxiliary facilities in Passaic County, New
Jersey.
    The Commission mailed a copy of the Notice of Availability to
federal, state, and local government representatives and agencies;
elected officials; environmental and public interest groups; Native
American tribes; potentially affected landowners and other interested
individuals and groups; and newspapers and libraries in the project
area. The EA is only available in electronic format. It may be viewed
and downloaded from the FERC's website (www.ferc.gov), on the natural
gas environmental documents page (https://www.ferc.gov/industries-data/natural-gas/environment/environmental-documents). In addition, the EA
may be accessed by using the eLibrary link on the FERC's website. Click
on the eLibrary link (https://elibrary.ferc.gov/eLibrary/search),
select ``General Search'' and enter the docket number in the ``Docket
Number'' field (i.e., CP20-493). Be sure you have selected an
appropriate date range. For assistance, please contact FERC Online
Support at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or toll free at<PHONE_NUMBER>,
or for TTY, contact<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    The EA is not a decision document. It presents Commission staff's
independent analysis of the environmental issues for the Commission to
consider when addressing the merits of all issues in this proceeding.
Any person wishing to comment on the EA may do so. Your comments should
focus on the EA's disclosure and discussion of potential environmental
effects, reasonable alternatives, and measures to avoid or lessen
environmental impacts. The more specific your comments, the more useful
they will be. To ensure that the Commission has the opportunity to
consider your comments prior to making its decision on this project, it
is important that we receive your comments in Washington, DC on or
before 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on March 22, 2021.
    For your convenience, there are three methods you can use to file
your comments to the Commission. The Commission encourages electronic
filing of comments and has staff available to assist you at (866) 208-
3676 or<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Please carefully follow these
instructions so that your comments are properly recorded.
    (1) You can file your comments electronically using the eComment
feature on the Commission's website (www.ferc.gov) under the link to
FERC Online. This is an easy method for submitting brief, text-only
comments on a project;
    (2) You can also file your comments electronically using the
eFiling feature on the Commission's website (www.ferc.gov) under the
link to FERC Online. With eFiling, you can provide comments in a
variety of formats by attaching them as a file with your submission.
New eFiling users must first create an account by clicking on
``eRegister.'' You must select the type of filing you are making. If
you are filing a comment on a particular project, please select
``Comment on a Filing''; or
    (3) You can file a paper copy of your comments by mailing them to
the Commission. Be sure to reference the project docket number (CP20-
493-000) on your letter. Submissions sent via the U.S. Postal Service
must be addressed to: Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Room 1A, Washington, DC
20426. Submissions sent via any other carrier must be addressed to:
Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,
12225 Wilkins Avenue, Rockville, MD 20852.
    Filing environmental comments will not give you intervenor status,
but you do not need intervenor status to have your comments considered.
Only intervenors have the right to seek rehearing or judicial review of
the Commission's decision. At this point in this proceeding, the
timeframe for filing timely intervention requests has expired. Any
person seeking to become a party to the proceeding must file a motion
to intervene out-of-time pursuant to Rule 214(b)(3) and (d) of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedures (18 CFR 385.214(b)(3) and
(d)) and show good cause why the time limitation should be waived.
Motions to intervene are more fully described at https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/ferc-online/how-guides.
    Additional information about the project is available from the
Commission's Office of External Affairs, at (866) 208-FERC, or on the
FERC website (www.ferc.gov) using the eLibrary link. The eLibrary link
also provides access to the texts of all formal documents issued by the
Commission, such as orders, notices, and rulemakings.
    In addition, the Commission offers a free service called
eSubscription which allows you to keep track of all formal issuances
and submittals in specific dockets. This can reduce the amount of time
you spend researching proceedings by automatically providing you with
notification of these filings, document summaries, and direct links to
the documents. Go to https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-online/overview to
