DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

[Docket ID FEMA-2013-0002: Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-B-1343]

Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: Comments are requested on proposed flood hazard
determinations, which may include additions or modifications of any
Base Flood Elevation (BFE), base flood depth, Special Flood Hazard Area
(SFHA) boundary or zone designation, or regulatory floodway on the
Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and where applicable, in the
supporting Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports for the communities
listed in the table below. The purpose of this notice is to seek
general information and comment regarding the preliminary FIRM, and

where applicable, the FIS report that the Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) has provided to the affected communities. The FIRM and
FIS report are the basis of the floodplain management measures that the
community is required either to adopt or to show evidence of having in
effect in order to qualify or remain qualified for participation in the
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). In addition, the FIRM and FIS
report, once effective, will be used by insurance agents and others to
calculate appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new buildings
and the contents of those buildings.

DATES: Comments are to be submitted on or before December 18, 2013.

ADDRESSES: The Preliminary FIRM, and where applicable, the FIS report
for each community are available for inspection at both the online
location and the respective Community Map Repository address listed in
the tables below. Additionally, the current effective FIRM and FIS
report for each community are accessible online through the FEMA Map
Service Center at www.msc.fema.gov for comparison.
    You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. FEMA-B-1343, to
Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering Management Branch, Federal Insurance
and Mitigation Administration, FEMA, 500 C Street SW., Washington, DC
20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or (email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering
Management Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration,
FEMA, 500 C Street SW., Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or
(email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or visit the FEMA Map Information
eXchange (FMIX) online at www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/fmx_main.html.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FEMA proposes to make flood hazard
determinations for each community listed below, in accordance with
section 110 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C.
4104, and 44 CFR 67.4(a).
    These proposed flood hazard determinations, together with the
floodplain management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum
that are required. They should not be construed to mean that the
community must change any existing ordinances that are more stringent
in their floodplain management requirements. The community may at any
time enact stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies
established by other Federal, State, or regional entities. These flood
hazard determinations are used to meet the floodplain management
requirements of the NFIP and also are used to calculate the appropriate
flood insurance premium rates for new buildings built after the FIRM
and FIS report become effective.
    The communities affected by the flood hazard determinations are
provided in the tables below. Any request for reconsideration of the
revised flood hazard information shown on the Preliminary FIRM and FIS
report that satisfies the data requirements outlined in 44 CFR 67.6(b)
is considered an appeal. Comments unrelated to the flood hazard
determinations also will be considered before the FIRM and FIS report
become effective.
    Use of a Scientific Resolution Panel (SRP) is available to
communities in support of the appeal resolution process. SRPs are
independent panels of experts in hydrology, hydraulics, and other
pertinent sciences established to review conflicting scientific and
technical data and provide recommendations for resolution. Use of the
SRP only may be exercised after FEMA and local communities have been
engaged in a collaborative consultation process for at least 60 days
without a mutually acceptable resolution of an appeal. Additional
information regarding the SRP process can be found online at http://floodsrp.org/pdfs/srp_fact_sheet.pdf.
    The watersheds and/or communities affected are listed in the tables
below. The Preliminary FIRM, and where applicable, FIS report for each
community are available for inspection at both the online location and
the respective Community Map Repository address listed in the tables.
Additionally, the current effective FIRM and FIS report for each
community are accessible online through the FEMA Map Service Center at
www.msc.fema.gov for comparison.

Applicants' Representations

    1. Lord Abbett Global Fund, Inc. is organized as a Maryland
corporation; Lord Abbett Investment Trust and Lord Abbett Securities
Trust each are organized as a Delaware statutory trust. Each Company is
registered under the Act as an open-end management investment company.
Lord Abbett, a Delaware limited liability company, is an investment
adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as
amended (the ``Advisers Act'') and serves as investment adviser to each
Company. Lord Abbett Distributor is organized as a New York limited
liability company, and is a registered broker-dealer under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (``1934 Act''); Lord Abbett
Distributor is the principal underwriter of each Company.
    2. Applicants request the exemption to the extent necessary to
permit any existing or future series of each Company and of any other
registered open-end management investment company that (i) Is advised
by Lord Abbett or any person controlling, controlled by or under common
control with Lord Abbett (any such adviser or Lord Abbett, an
``Adviser'') and (ii) is in the same group of investment companies, as
defined in section 12(d)(1)(G) of the Act, as the Companies and invests
in other registered open-end management investment companies in that
same group (``Underlying Funds'') in reliance on section 12(d)(1)(G) of
the Act; and (iii) is also eligible to invest in securities (as defined
in section 2(a)(36) of the Act) in reliance on rule 12d1-2 under the
Act (each a ``Fund of Funds''), to also invest, to the extent
consistent with its investment objectives, policies, strategies and
limitations, in financial instruments that may not be securities within
the meaning of section 2(a)(36) of the Act (``Other Investments'').\1\
Applicants also request that the order exempt any entity, including any
entity controlled by or under common control with an Adviser, that in
the future acts as principal underwriter, or broker or dealer if
registered under the 1934 Act, with respect to the transactions
described in the application.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Every existing entity that currently intends to rely on the
requested order is named as an applicant. Any entity that relies on
the order in the future will do so only in accordance with the terms
and condition in the application.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    3. Consistent with its fiduciary obligations under the Act, each
Fund of Funds' board of directors or trustees, as the case may be, will
review the advisory fees charged by the Fund of Funds' Adviser to
ensure that they are based on services provided that are in addition
to, rather than duplicative of, services provided pursuant to the
advisory agreement of any investment company in which the Fund of Funds
may invest.

Applicants' Legal Analysis

    1. Section 12(d)(1)(A) of the Act provides that no registered
investment company (``acquiring company'') may acquire securities of
another investment company (``acquired company'') if such securities
represent more than 3% of the acquired company's outstanding voting
stock or more than 5% of the acquiring company's total assets, or if
such securities, together with the securities of other investment
companies, represent more than 10% of the acquiring company's total
assets. Section 12(d)(1)(B) of the Act provides that no registered
open-end investment company may sell its securities to another
investment company if the sale will cause the acquiring company to own
more than 3% of the acquired company's voting stock, or cause more than
10% of the acquired company's voting stock to be owned by investment
companies and companies controlled by them.
    2. Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the Act provides, in part, that section
12(d)(1) will not apply to securities of an acquired company purchased
by an acquiring company if: (i) The acquired company and acquiring
company are part of the same group of investment companies; (ii) the
acquiring company holds only securities of acquired companies that are
part of the same group of investment companies, government securities,
and short-term paper; (iii) the aggregate sales loads and distribution-
related fees of the acquiring company and the acquired company are not
excessive under rules adopted pursuant to section 22(b) or section
22(c) of the Act by a securities association registered under section
15A of the 1934 Act, or by the Commission; and (iv) the acquired
company has a policy that prohibits it from acquiring securities of
registered open-end investment companies or registered unit investment
trusts in reliance on section 12(d)(1)(F) or (G) of the Act.
    3. Rule 12d1-2 under the Act permits a registered open-end
investment company or a registered unit investment trust that relies on
section 12(d)(1)(G) of the Act to acquire, in addition to securities
issued by another registered investment company in the same group of
investment companies, government securities, and short-term paper: (i)
Securities issued by an investment company that is not in the same
group of investment companies, when the acquisition is in reliance on
section 12(d)(1)(A) or 12(d)(1)(F) of the Act; (ii) securities (other
than securities issued by an investment company); and (iii) securities
issued by a money market fund, when the investment is in reliance on
rule 12d1-1 under the Act. For the purposes of rule 12d1-2,
``securities'' means any security as defined in section 2(a)(36) of the
Act.
    4. Section 6(c) of the Act provides that the Commission may exempt
any person, security, or transaction from any provision of the Act, or
from any rule

under the Act, if such exemption is necessary or appropriate in the
public interest and consistent with the protection of investors and the
purposes fairly intended by the policies and provisions of the Act.
    5. Applicants state that the Funds of Funds will comply with rule
12d1-2 under the Act, but for the fact that they may invest a portion
of their assets in Other Investments. Applicants request an order under
section 6(c) of the Act for an exemption from rule 12d1-2(a) to allow
the Funds of Funds to invest in Other Investments while investing in
Underlying Funds. Applicants assert that permitting the Funds of Funds
to invest in Other Investments as described in the application would
not raise any of the concerns that the requirements of section 12(d)(1)
were designed to address.

Applicants' Condition

    Applicants agree that any order granting the requested relief will
be subject to the following condition:
    Applicants will comply with all provisions of rule 12d1-2 under the
Act, except for paragraph (a)(2) to the extent that it restricts any
Fund of Funds from investing in Other Investments as described in the
application.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Investment Management,
under delegated authority.

Deputy Secretary.

14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2010-0082; Airspace Docket No. 10-AAL-4]

Revision of Class E Airspace; Kaltag, AK

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action revises Class E airspace at Kaltag, AK, to
accommodate an amended Area Navigation (RNAV) Standard Instrument
Approach Procedure (SIAP) at Kaltag Airport. The FAA is taking this
action to enhance safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules
(IFR) operations at Kaltag Airport.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, July 29, 2010. The Director of the Federal
Register approves this incorporation by reference action under title 1,
Code of Federal Regulations, part 51, subject to the annual revision of
FAA Order 7400.9 and publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On Thursday March 11, 2010, the FAA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking in the Federal Register to revise Class E airspace at
Kaltag, AK (75 FR 11479).
    Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking
proceeding by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA.
No comments were received. The rule is adopted as proposed.
    The Class E airspace areas designated as 700/1,200 ft. transition
areas are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9T, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, signed August 27, 2009, and
effective September 15, 2009, which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the Order.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 by revising Class E airspace at Kaltag Airport, AK, to
accommodate an amended RNAV SIAP at Kaltag Airport. This Class E
airspace will provide adequate controlled airspace upward from 700 and
1,200 feet above the surface for safety and management of IFR
operations at Kaltag Airport.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore--(1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. Because this is a routine matter that
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule will not have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle 1, section 106
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII,
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's
authority.
    This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
subtitle VII, part A, subpart 1, section 40103, Sovereignty and use of
airspace. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing
regulations to ensure the safe and efficient use of the navigable
airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because
it creates Class E airspace sufficient in size to contain aircraft
executing instrument procedures for the Kaltag Airport and represents
the FAA's continuing effort to safely and efficiently use the navigable
airspace.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. 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. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it establishes Class E airspace at Wessington Springs Airport,
Wessington Springs, SD.

History

    On November 16, 2016, the FAA published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to establish Class E Airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Wessington Springs
Airport, Wessington Springs, SD (81FR 80618) FAA-2016-9193. Interested
parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by
submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments
were received.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11A, dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15,
2016, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15,
2016. FAA Order 7400.11A is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 establishes Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface within a 6.5-mile radius of Wessington Springs
Airport, Wessington Springs, SD, to accommodate new standard instrument
approach procedures. Controlled airspace is needed for the safety and
management of IFR operations at the airport.
    Class E airspace areas are published in Section 6005 of FAA Order
7400.11A, dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15, 2016, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace
designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in
the Order.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action''
under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26,
1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter
that only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 5-6.5a. This airspace action is not expected to
cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

20549-2736

Extension:
    Form 1-Z; SEC File No. 270-659, OMB Control No. 3235-0723

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget this request for extension of the previously approved
collection of information discussed below.
    Form 1-Z (17 CFR 239.94) is used to report terminated or completed
offerings or to suspend the duty to file ongoing reports under
Regulation A, an exemption from registration under the Securities Act
of 1933 (15 U.S.C 77a et seq.). The purpose of the Form 1-Z is to
collect empirical data for the Commission on offerings conducted under
Regulation A that have terminated or completed, to indicate to the
Commission that issuers that have conducted Tier 2 offering are
suspending their duty to file reports under Regulation A and to provide
such information to the investing public. We estimate that
approximately 17 issuers file Form 1-Z annually. We estimate that Form
1-Z takes approximately 1.5 hours to prepare. We estimate that 100% of
the 1.5 hours per response is prepared by the company for a total
annual burden of 26 hours (1.5 hours per response x 17 responses).
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid control number.
    The public may view background documentation for this information
collection at the following website: www.reginfo.gov. Find this
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice
to (i) www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain and (ii) David Bottom,

Upon written request, copies available from: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Filings and Information Services, Washington, DC
20549.

Extension:
    Rule 489 and Form F-N; SEC File No. 270-361; OMB Control No.
3235-0411.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget requests for extension of the previously approved
collections of information discussed below:
     Rule 489 (17 CFR 230.489) under the Securities Act of 1933
(15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.), Filing of Form by Foreign Banks and Insurance
Companies and Certain of Their Holding Companies and Finance
Subsidiaries; and Form F-N, Appointment of Agent for Service of Process
by Foreign Banks and Foreign Insurance Companies and Certain of Their
Holding Companies and Finance Subsidiaries Making Public Offerings of
Securities in the United States
    Rule 489 (17 CFR 230.489) under the Securities Act of 1933 (15
U.S.C. 77a et seq.) requires foreign banks and foreign insurance
companies and holding companies and finance subsidiaries of foreign
banks and foreign insurance companies that are exempted from the
definition of ``investment company'' by virtue of Rules 3a-1, 3a-5, and
3a-6 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.)
to file Form F-N under the Securities Act of 1933 to appoint an agent
for service of process when making a public offering of securities in
the United States. Approximately seven entities are required by Rule
489 to file Form F-N, which is estimated to require an average of one
hour to complete. The estimated annual burden of complying with the
rule's filing requirement is approximately eleven hours, as some of the
entities submitted multiple filings.
    The estimates of average burden hours are made solely for the
purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.) and are not derived from a comprehensive or even representative
survey or study of the cost of Commission rules and forms.
    The collection of information under Form F-N is mandatory. The
information provided by the Form is not kept confidential. An agency
may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to,
a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid
control number.
    General comments regarding the above information should be directed
to the following persons: (i) Desk officer for the Securities and
Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office
Building, Washington, DC 20503, or e-mail to:
