SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title 49 of the U.S. Code 47134 authorizes
the Secretary of Transportation, and through delegation, the FAA
Administrator, to exempt a sponsor of a public use airport that has
received Federal assistance, from certain Federal requirements in
connection with the privatization of the airport by sale or lease to a
private party. Specifically, the Administrator may exempt the sponsor
from all or part of the requirements to use airport revenues for
airport-related purposes, to pay back a portion of Federal grants upon
the sale of an airport, and to return airport property deeded by the
Federal Government upon transfer of the airport. The Administrator is
also authorized to exempt the private purchaser or lessee from the
requirements to use all airport revenues for airport-related purposes,
to the extent necessary to permit the purchaser or lessee to earn
compensation from the operations of the airport.
    On September 16, 1997, the Federal Aviation Administration issued a
notice of procedures to be used in applications for exemption under
Airport Privatization Pilot Program (Notice of final application
procedures for the Airport Privatization Pilot program: Application
Procedures, 62 Federal Register 48693-48708 (September 16, 1997)
(Notice) (as modified, 62 FR 63211, Nov. 26, 1997). A request for
participation in the Pilot Program must be initiated by the filing of
either a preliminary or final application for exemption with the
Federal Aviation Administration.
    The Puerto Rico Ports Authority and Puerto Rico Public-Private
Partnerships Authority submitted a preliminary application to the
Airport Privatization Pilot Program for Luis Mu[ntilde]oz Mar[iacute]n
International Airport on December 1, 2009, the filing date of the
preliminary application. On December 22, 2009, the Federal Aviation
Administration advised the Puerto Rico Ports Authority and Puerto Rico
Public-Private Partnerships Authority that the agency accepted the
application for review and that they may select a private operator,
negotiate an agreement and submit a final application. The preliminary
application is posted on http://www.regulations.gov in Docket Number
FAA 2009-1144 and is available for public review.
    On September 10, 2012, the Puerto Rico Ports Authority and Puerto
Rico Public-Private Partnerships Authority filed its final application.
The Puerto Rico Ports Authority and Puerto Rico Public-Private
Partnerships Authority selected Aerostar Airport Holdings, LLC,
(AEROSTAR) to operate the Airport under a 40-year lease. The Puerto
Rico Ports Authority will receive $615 million upon signing the lease
and annual revenue payments over the life of the lease. In the final
application, the Puerto Rico Ports Authority requested an exemption
under 49 U.S.C. 47134(b)(1) to permit the Puerto Rico Ports Authority
to use revenue from the lease of airport property for non-airport
purposes and under 49 U.S.C. 47134(b)(2) to forego the repayment of
Federal grants; and AEROSTAR asked for an exemption under 49 U.S.C.
47134(b)(3) to permit them to earn compensation from the operation of
the airport.
    The purpose of the public meeting scheduled for September 28, 2012,
is to accept oral comments on the Luis Mu[ntilde]oz Mar[iacute]n
International Airport final application, for inclusion in Docket Number
FAA 2009-1144. The meeting will be recorded by a court reporter. A
transcript of the meeting and any material accepted by the panel during
the meeting will be included in the public docket posted on http://www.regulations.gov. The Federal panel will not be able to discuss the
application or the pending agency decision because the final
application is presently before the agency for a decision. Spanish/
English translation will be made available at the meeting. Sign and
oral interpretation can be made available at the meeting, if requested
10 calendar days before the meeting.
    As part of its review of the final application, the FAA will
consider all comments, written and oral, that are submitted by
interested parties during the 60-day comment period for this notice.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on September 11, 2012.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-53343; File No. SR-CBOE-2006-13]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Chicago Board Options Exchange,
Incorporated; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed
Rule Change and Amendment No. 1 Thereto To Amend CBOE Rule 8.3 Relating
to Market-Maker Appointments

February 22, 2006.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on February 2, 2006, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated
(``Exchange'' or ``CBOE'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in
Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange.
The Exchange filed the proposal as a ``non-controversial'' proposed
rule change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \3\ and
Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\4\ On February 17, 2006, the Exchange
filed Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule change.\5\ The Commission is
publishing this notice, as amended, to solicit comments on the proposed
rule change from interested persons.

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \4\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \5\ Amendment No. 1 is incorporated in this notice. Amendment
No. 1 clarifies that for purposes of the proposed amendment to CBOE
Rule 8.3, the Exchange is using the specific Tiers set forth in CBOE
Rule 8.4(d) that have been structured for purposes of Remote Market-
Maker appointments.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The CBOE proposes to amend CBOE Rule 8.3 relating to Market-Maker
appointments. The text of the proposed rule change is available on the
CBOE's Web site (http://www.cboe.com), at the CBOE's Office of the

Secretary, and at the Commission.

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 CBOE 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
    The purpose of this rule change is to amend CBOE Rule 8.3 relating
to Market-Maker appointments, other than appointments for Remote
Market-Makers. Currently, CBOE Rule 8.3(c) provides that a Market-Maker
can quote (i) electronically in all classes traded on the Hybrid
Trading System that are located in one designated trading station
(``appointed trading station'') provided, however, that with respect to
Hybrid 2.0 Classes, a Market-Maker may submit electronic quotations in
up to 40 classes for each Exchange membership it owns or up to 30
classes for each Exchange membership it leases; and (ii) in open outcry
all classes traded on the Exchange.
    CBOE proposes to allow a Market-Maker that is submitting electronic
quotations in his or her appointed Hybrid and Hybrid 2.0 Classes to
quote electronically in either two additional Hybrid 2.0 Classes in
Tier A or Tier B that are not located in the Market-Maker's appointed
trading station, or five additional Hybrid 2.0 Classes in Tiers C, D,
or E that are not located in the Market-Maker's appointed trading
station.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ For purposes of Remote Market-Maker appointments, CBOE has
assigned approximately 604 Hybrid 2.0 Classes to five separate tiers
structured according to trading volume statistics and an ``A+'' Tier
which consists of five option classes listed in CBOE Rule 8.4(d).
Tiers A though E each consist of approximately 120 Hybrid 2.0
Classes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    CBOE Rule 8.3 also would provide that the Market-Maker cannot be
affiliated with an e-DPM or RMM that holds an appointment in one of
these additional Hybrid 2.0 Classes, which is consistent with the
current restriction in CBOE Rule 8.3 on Market-Makers streaming
electronic quotations from outside of their appointed trading stations
in classes in which an affiliated e-DPM or RMM submits electronic
quotations.\7\ Moreover, pursuant to a Pilot Program that expires on
September 14, 2006, a Market-Maker could be affiliated with another
Market-Maker (``Affiliated Market-Maker'') who holds an appointment in
one of these additional Hybrid 2.0 Classes, provided that the Market-
Maker could not submit electronic quotations in these additional Hybrid
2.0 Classes if the Affiliated Market-Maker is submitting electronic
quotations from outside its appointed trading station. Pursuant to a
separate Pilot Program that expires on March 14, 2006 (see CBOE Rule
8.4(c)(ii)), if both Market-Makers operate as multiple aggregation
units under the criteria set forth in CBOE Rule 8.4(c)(ii), the
preceding restriction would not apply.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ CBOE Rule 8.3(c) states that: ``Any Market-Maker affiliated
with an e-DPM or RMM shall be ineligible to submit electronic
quotations from outside of its appointed trading station prusuant to
this rule in any class in which the affiliated e-DPM or RMM has an
appointment.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With respect to the additional Hybrid 2.0 Classes, the provisions
of CBOE Rule 8.3A would continue to apply, and a Market-Maker would be
able to quote electronically in the options classes provided the Class
Quoting Limit (``CQL'') for the option class has not been met (unless
the CQL has been otherwise increased under the provisions of CBOE Rule
8.3A).
    CBOE believes it would be appropriate and beneficial to permit
Market-Makers to quote electronically in an additional number of Hybrid
2.0 Classes which are not located in the Market-Maker's appointed
trading station. The Exchange believes that allowing Market-Makers the
opportunity to quote electronically in up to either two additional
Hybrid 2.0 Classes in Tier A or Tier B that are not located in the
Market-Maker's appointed trading station, or five additional Hybrid 2.0
Classes in Tiers C, D, or E that are not located in the Market-Maker's
appointed trading station would increase competition and liquidity in
the classes, while providing Market-Makers with additional trading
opportunities outside of their appointed trading stations.
    CBOE also proposes to eliminate the 40/30 restriction on quoting
Hybrid 2.0 Classes electronically depending on whether the Market-Maker
owns or leases a membership. Instead, the CBOE proposes to allow a
Market-Maker to submit electronic quotations in all Hybrid and Hybrid
2.0 Classes located in his/her appointed trading station. CBOE does not
believe that the limitation on only quoting electronically

in either 40 Hybrid 2.0 Classes (if a market-Maker owns a membership)
or 30 Hybrid 2.0 Classes (if the market-Maker leases a membership) is
necessary since the average number of Hybrid 2.0 Classes in a trading
crowd is 14.9, and the highest number of Hybrid 2.0 Classes in one
trading crowd is 28.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change, as amended, is
consistent with the Act and the rules and regulations under the Act
applicable to a national securities exchange and, in particular, the
requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\8\ Specifically, the Exchange
believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Section
6(b)(5) Act \9\ requirements that the rules of an exchange be designed
to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and, in general, to protect investors
and the public interest.

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

    CBOE does not believe that the proposed rule change, as amended,
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

    The Exchange neither solicited nor received comments on the
proposal.

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

    Because the foregoing rule 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 if consistent with the protection of investors
and the public interest, provided that the Exchange has given the
Commission written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule
change prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule change or such
shorter time as designated by the Commission, the proposed rule change
has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \10\
and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ For purposes of calculating the 60-day abrogation date, the
Commission considers the 60-day period to have commenced on February
17, 2006, the date CBOE filed Amendment No. 1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Under Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) of the Act,\13\ the proposal does not
become operative for 30 days after the date of its filing, or such
shorter time as the Commission may designate if consistent with the
protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has
requested that the Commission accelerate the 30-day operative date. The
Commission, consistent with the protection of investors and the public
interest, has determined to accelerate the 30-day operative date
because the proposal does not raise any unique regulatory issues.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
    \14\ For purposes only of accelerating the 30-day operative
period for this proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed
rule's impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. 15

    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State
of Nebraska resulting from severe storms, flooding, and tornadoes
during the period of June 5-26, 2009, is of sufficient severity and
magnitude to warrant a major disaster declaration under the Robert
T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C.
5121 et seq. (the ``Stafford Act''). Therefore, I declare that such
a major disaster exists in the State of Nebraska.

authorized to allocate from funds available for these purposes such
amounts as you find necessary for Federal disaster assistance and
administrative expenses.
    You are authorized to provide Public Assistance in the
designated areas, Hazard Mitigation throughout the State, and any
other forms of assistance under the Stafford Act that you deem
appropriate. Consistent with the requirement that Federal assistance
is supplemental, any Federal funds provided under the Stafford Act
for Public Assistance and Hazard Mitigation will be limited to 75
percent of the total eligible costs. If Other Needs Assistance under
section 408 of the Stafford Act is later requested and warranted,
Federal funding under that program will also be limited to 75
percent of the total eligible costs.
    Further, you are authorized to make changes to this declaration
to the extent allowable under the Stafford Act.
