Selection Panel; and Prohibit any Ex Parte Communications During and
Regarding the Selection Process between the DMM Units and the
Individuals Serving on the Exchange Selection Panel

August 4, 2009.
    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 July 27, 2009, NYSE Amex LLC (the ``Exchange'' or ``NYSE
Amex'') 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 amend NYSE Amex Equities Rule 103B
(``Security Allocation and Reallocation'') to: (1) Modify the
composition of the Exchange Selection Panel; and (2) prohibit any ex
parte communications during and regarding the selection process between
the DMM units and the individuals serving on the Exchange Selection

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

    \4\ The Commission notes that the Exchange inadvertently marked
certain portions of the rule text incorrectly. Specifically, in
paragraph (III)(B)(1) of Rule 103B the Exchange failed to indicate
the deletion of a comma after ``his or her designee''and failed to
mark ``; (b)'' as new text. In addition, the Exchange marked as new
text one letter in a sentence being deleted from paragraph
(III)(B)(1) of Rule 103B.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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
    NYSE Amex LLC (``NYSE Amex'' or ``Exchange''), formerly the
American Stock Exchange LLC, proposes to amend NYSE Amex Equities Rule
103B (``Security Allocation and Reallocation'') to: (1) Modify the
composition of the Exchange Selection Panel; and (2) Prohibit any ex
parte communications during and regarding the selection process between
the DMM units and the individuals serving on the Exchange Selection
Panel.
    The Exchange notes that parallel changes are proposed to be made to
the rules of the New York Stock Exchange LLC (``NYSE'').\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See SR-NYSE-2009-74.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background
    As described more fully in a related rule filing,\6\ NYSE Euronext
acquired The Amex Membership Corporation (``AMC'') pursuant to an
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated January 17, 2008 (the ``Merger'').
In connection with the Merger, the Exchange's predecessor, the American
Stock Exchange LLC (``Amex''), a subsidiary of AMC, became a subsidiary
of NYSE Euronext called NYSE Alternext US LLC, and continues to operate
as a national securities exchange registered under Section 6 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the ``Act'').\7\ The
effective date of the Merger was October 1, 2008.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58673 (September 29,
2008), 73 FR 57707 (October 3, 2008) (SR-NYSE-2008-60 and SR-Amex
2008-62) (approving the Merger).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In connection with the Merger, on December 1, 2008, the Exchange
relocated all equities trading conducted on the Exchange legacy trading
systems and facilities located at 86 Trinity Place, New York, New York,
to trading systems and facilities located at 11 Wall Street, New York,
New York (the ``Equities Relocation''). The Exchange's equity trading
systems and facilities at 11 Wall Street (the ``NYSE Amex Trading

Systems'') are operated by the NYSE on behalf of the Exchange.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58705 (October 1,
2008), 73 FR 58995 (October 8, 2008) (SR-Amex 2008-63) (approving
the Equities Relocation).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As part of the Equities Relocation, NYSE Amex adopted NYSE Rules 1-
1004, subject to such changes as necessary to apply the Rules to the
Exchange, as the NYSE Amex Equities Rules to govern trading on the NYSE
Amex Trading Systems.\9\ The NYSE Amex Equities Rules, which became
operative on December 1, 2008, are substantially identical to the
current NYSE Rules 1-1004 and the Exchange continues to update the NYSE
Amex Equities Rules as necessary to conform with rule changes to
corresponding NYSE Rules filed by the NYSE.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58705 (October 1,
2008), 73 FR 58995 (October 8, 2008) (SR-Amex 2008-63) (approving
the Equities Relocation); Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58833

to Rule 62--NYSE Alternext Equities to track changes to
corresponding NYSE Rule 62).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

NYSE Amex Equities Rule 103B--Allocation Process
    Currently, pursuant to NYSE Amex Equities Rule 103B, an issuer may
select the DMM unit that will be assigned its security or delegate the
selection of the DMM unit to the Exchange. If the issuer authorizes the
Exchange to select the DMM unit to trade its security, an Exchange
Selection Panel (the ``ESP'' or the ``Panel'') is convened to select
the DMM unit based on a review of all information that would be
available to the issuer. The Panel is comprised of three members of the
Exchange's Senior Management, as designated by the Chief Executive
Officer (``CEO'') of the Exchange or his or her designee, one non-DMM
Executive Floor Governor (``EFG'') and two non-DMM Floor Governors
(``FGs''). The non-DMM EFG and non-DMM FGs are designated on a rotating
basis. The Panel's decision is made by majority vote. In the event of a
tie, the CEO of the Exchange or his/her designee makes the final
decision. The Exchange then informs the issuer of the DMM unit selected
by the Panel.
Proposed Amendments
    The Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Amex Equities Rule 103B to
modify the composition of the Panel in order to ensure consistent Floor
participation in the selection process and minimize delays due to
scheduling conflicts.
    The current composition of the Panel has proven difficult when
scheduling the required participants within five days of the issuer's
request. The Exchange therefore seeks to amend NYSE Amex Equities Rule
103B to modify the representation on the Panel to include: (1) At least
one member of the Exchange's Senior Management; (2) any combination of
two Exchange Senior Management or Exchange Floor Operations Staff, to
be designated by the Executive Vice-President of Exchange Floor
Operations or his/her designee; and (3) any combination of three non-
DMM EFGs or non-DMM FGs for a total of six members.
    Finally, to reinforce the integrity and objectivity of the ESP
selection process, the Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Amex Equities
Rule 103B to explicitly prohibit any communications regarding the
selection process between the Panelists and the DMM units. The Exchange
proposes to have communication regarding the selection process cease
from the time the issuer delegates the selection responsibility to the
Exchange until the Panel selects the DMM unit to trade the issuer's
security.
2. Statutory Basis
    The basis under the Act for the proposed rule change is the
requirement under Section 6(b)(5),\10\ which requires that an exchange
have rules that are designed 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. The Exchange believes that
the proposed amendments are consistent with these objectives. The
amendments sought herein seek to streamline and facilitate the process
of assigning securities to DMM units by allowing for more flexibility
in composing the Panel which ultimately facilitates and expedites the
allocation and ultimately the trading of securities on the Exchange.
Furthermore, the proposed amendment to prohibit communications between
the Panel and the DMM units preserves the integrity and impartiality of
the allocation process and therefore protects the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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 that is 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 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 foregoing proposed rule change: (1) Does not
significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (2) does not impose any significant burden on competition;
and (3) by its terms does not become operative for 30 days after the
date of this filing, 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) \11\ of the Act and Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
thereunder.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \12\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii)
requires a self-regulatory organization to provide the Commission
with 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 Exchange has fulfilled this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \13\ normally
may not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of filing.
However, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) \14\ permits the Commission to designate
a shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest. The Exchange requests that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative delay, as specified in Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii),\15\ which would make the rule change operative upon
filing. The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay
is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest
because such waiver will allow the Exchange to immediately streamline
the process of allocating securities to

DMM units. In addition, by prohibiting communications regarding the
selection process between members of the Panel and DMM units, the
Exchange will be able to immediately reinforce impartiality and
fairness during the selection process.\16\ Accordingly, the Commission
designates the proposed rule change operative upon filing with the
Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ Id.
    \14\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \15\ Id.
    \16\ For purposes only of waiving the operative delay for this
proposal, 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 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.

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Leonardo S.p.A. (Leonardo) Model AB139, AW139, AW169, and AW189
helicopters. This AD was prompted by reports of uncommanded deployment
of the emergency flotation system (EFS) due to improper accomplishment
of the reset procedure of the shape memory alloy (SMA) inflation system
actuation device. This AD requires removal of affected SMA inflation
systems and installation of serviceable SMA inflation systems. The FAA
is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective September 3, 2020.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Leonardo Model
AB139, AW139, AW169, and AW189 helicopters. The NPRM published in the
Federal Register on April 14, 2020 (85 FR 20618). The NPRM was prompted
by reports of uncommanded deployment of

the EFS due to improper accomplishment of the reset procedure of the
SMA inflation system actuation device. The NPRM proposed to require
removal of affected SMA inflation systems and installation of
serviceable SMA inflation systems. The FAA is issuing this AD to
address uncommanded EFS deployment, which could result in reduced
control of the helicopter.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (now European Union Aviation
Safety Agency) (EASA), which is the Technical Agent for the Member
States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD 2018-0208, dated
September 20, 2018 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe
condition for certain Leonardo Model AB139, AW139, AW169, and AW189
helicopters. You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the internet
at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No.
FAA-2020-0215.

Comments

    The FAA gave the public the opportunity to participate in
developing this final rule. After the NPRM was published, the FAA
received a comment from one commenter. However, the comment addressed
neither the proposed actions nor the determination of the cost to the
public. Therefore, the FAA has made no changes based on this comment.

Conclusion

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

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Leonardo Helicopters has issued Alert Service Bulletin (ASB) No.
139-533, dated August 30, 2018; ASB No. 169-099, dated August 30, 2018;
and ASB No. 189-195, dated August 30, 2018. This service information
describes procedures for removal of affected SMA inflation systems and
installation of serviceable SMA inflation systems (including correcting
the SMA inflation system by performing a reset procedure). These
documents are distinct since they apply to different helicopter models.
    This service information is reasonably available because the
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of
business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 138 helicopters of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                      Estimated Costs for Required Actions

               Labor cost                   cost         Cost per product            Cost on U.S. operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Up to 7 work-hours x $85 per hour = Up          $*  Up to $595 *.............  Up to $82,110.*
 to $595.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The FAA has received no definitive data that would enable the FAA to provide parts cost estimates for the
  actions specified in this AD.

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
