Discussion

    EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD No. 2018-0140-E, dated June 29, 2018
(EASA AD 2018-0140-E), to correct an unsafe condition for Airbus
Helicopters (formerly Eurocopter, Eurocopter France, Aerospatiale)
Model AS 332 C, AS 332 C1, AS 332 L, AS 332 L1, AS 332 L2, and EC 225
LP helicopters. EASA advises that during a jettison test of the RH side
sliding door, the sliding door became blocked between the hoist,
airframe, and access step. Interference was identified between the
hoist arm and the sliding door median fitting (reinforced bracket).
EASA identifies the reinforced bracket as Airbus Helicopter
modification (MOD) 0726841, which was required by EASA AD No. 2015-
0167, dated August 12, 2015. EASA states that this condition could
prevent jettisoning of the RH sliding door in an emergency,
subsequently obstructing evacuation, and possibly resulting in injury
to occupants. To correct this unsafe condition, EASA AD 2018-0140-E
requires removing the hoist arm, or alternatively revising the
applicable RFM and installing placards to specify using the normal door
handle instead of the jettison handle for the RH side sliding door.
    EASA states that Airbus Helicopters is developing a modification to
eliminate the interference between the hoist arm and the reinforced
bracket. As a result, EASA considers its AD an interim action and
states that further AD action may follow.

FAA's Determination

    These helicopters have been approved by EASA and are approved for
operation in the United States. Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral
agreement with the European Union, EASA has notified the FAA of the
unsafe condition described in its AD. The FAA is issuing this AD after
evaluating all information provided by EASA and determining the unsafe
condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other helicopters
of these same type designs.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus Helicopters has co-published as one document Emergency Alert
Service Bulletin (EASB) No. 01.00.89, Revision 1, dated June 28, 2018,
for Model AS332-series helicopters; No. 04A014, Revision 1, dated June
28, 2018, for Model EC225 helicopters; and No. 01.00.52, Revision 1,
dated June 28, 2018, for non-FAA type certificated Model AS532
helicopters. EASB Nos. 01.00.89 and 04A014 are proposed for
incorporation by reference in this proposed AD. EASB No. 01.00.52 is
not proposed for incorporation by reference in this proposed AD. This
service information provides pages to add to the emergency and normal
procedures sections of the RFM, and specifies either removing the hoist
arm or installing placards that require using the normal door handle
instead of the jettison handle for the RH side sliding door. This
service information further allows installing the placards during each
installation of the hoist arm and removing the placards with each
removal of the hoist arm.
    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.

Other Related Service Information

    Airbus Helicopters has issued Service Bulletin (SB) No. AS332-
52.00.43 for Model AS332C, AS332C1, AS332L, AS332L1, and AS332L2
helicopters and SB No. EC225-52-008 for Model EC225LP helicopters, both
Revision 0 and dated June 23, 2015. This service information contains
procedures for installing the reinforced bracket identified as MOD
0726841.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would require revising the RFM for your helicopter
by adding emergency and normal procedures and installing placards to
require using the normal door handle instead of the jettison handle for
the RH side sliding door. Alternatively, this proposed AD would allow
removing the hoist arm instead of installing the placards.

Differences Between This Proposed AD and the EASA AD

    The EASA AD requires either removing the hoist arm or prohibiting
use of the RH sliding door jettison handle by revising the RFM and
installing placards. This proposed AD would require revising the
applicable RFM for your helicopter regardless of whether the hoist arm
is removed.

Interim Action

    The FAA considers this proposed AD to be an interim action. The
design approval holder is currently developing a modification that will
address the unsafe condition identified in this proposed AD. Once this
modification is developed, approved, and available, the FAA might
consider additional rulemaking.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this proposed AD would affect 36 helicopters
of U.S. Registry. Labor costs are estimated at $85 per work-hour. Based
on these numbers, the FAA estimates the following costs to comply with
this proposed AD.
    Revising the RFM for your helicopter would take about 1 work-hour
for an estimated cost of $85 per helicopter or $3,060 for the U.S.
fleet.
    Installing the placards would take about 1 work-hour for an
estimated cost of $85 per helicopter or $3,060 for the U.S. fleet.
Alternatively, removing the hoist arm would take about 1 work-hour for
an estimated cost of $85 per helicopter.

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

    The FAA determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would 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, I certify this proposed regulation:
    (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.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-80848; File No. SR-LCH SA-2017-003]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; LCH SA; Order Approving Proposed
Rule Change Relating to Recovery Risk Margin

June 2, 2017.

I. Introduction

    On April 4, 2017, Banque Centrale de Compensation, which conducts
business under the name LCH SA (``LCH SA''), filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4
thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change (SR-LCH SA-2017-003) to revise
its margin methodology with respect to credit default swaps (``CDS'')
in the Reference Guide: CDS Margin Framework (``Reference Guide''). The
proposed rule change was published for comment in the Federal Register
on April 19, 2017.\3\ The Commission received no comment letters
regarding the proposed change. For the reasons discussed below, the
Commission is approving the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34-80450 (April 13,
2017), 82 FR 18488 (April 19, 2017) (SR-LCH SA-2017-003) (the
``Notice'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change

    The proposed rule change seeks to amend the Reference Guide by
eliminating the recovery rate risk charge as a component of the margin
methodology, as it applies to index CDS. LCH SA, however, does not
propose to alter the recovery rate risk charge as a component of the
margin methodology, as it applies to single name CDS. The proposed rule
change also seeks to make minor updates and clarifications to the
Reference Guide.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ LCH SA has proposed changes to the Reference Guide to (i)
correct a hyperlink and (ii) add a cross reference and hyperlink to
the general inputs considered by LCH SA in constructing the CDS
pricing for European and U.S. dollar denominated contracts. See
Notice, 82 FR at 18489.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With respect to the portion of the proposed rule change that
eliminates the recovery rate risk charge as a margin component for
index CDS positions, LCH SA believes that recovery rate risk is
irrelevant to index CDS in normal market conditions and it therefore
should not need to charge margin to address it. In support, LCH SA
represents that ``[the] market convention is to assume a pre-defined
recovery rate for pricing an index CDS, such as a CDS on iTraxx
indices.'' \5\ Therefore, according to LCH SA, there is no need to
charge margin for an adverse recovery rate movement for an index CDS
position because, pursuant to market convention for pricing an index
CDS in normal market conditions, the rate will not move. Moreover, LCH
SA characterizes any drop in the recovery rate for index CDS as a
stress loss, and states that applying a margin charge to address this
risk ``would be trying to capture a stress loss incurred in a Clearing
Member's portfolio should the pre-defined recovery rate for these index
CDS change, which is not consistent with market convention in normal
market conditions.'' \6\ Furthermore, while LCH SA does expect
deviations from this market convention in extreme market conditions,
LCH SA believes that these deviations--and any resultant recovery rate
risk on the affected index CDS positions--should not be addressed
through its margin framework but rather ``would be captured by LCH SA's
stress scenarios used to size the Default Fund.'' \7\ Therefore, LCH SA
maintains that elimination of recovery rate risk charge from its margin
framework is appropriate and consistent with applicable provisions of
the Exchange Act and Commission Rules promulgated thereunder.

III. Discussion and Commission Findings

    Section 19(b)(2)(C) of the Act directs the Commission to approve a
proposed rule change of a self-regulatory organization if it finds that
such proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to such
organization.\8\ Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act requires,\9\ among
other things, that the rules of a registered clearing agency be
designed to assure the safeguarding of securities and funds which are
in the custody or control of the clearing agency or for which it is
responsible. Rule 17Ad-22(b)(2) requires that a registered clearing
agency that performs central counterparty services shall establish,
implement, maintain, and enforce written policies and procedures
reasonably designed to use margin requirements to limit its credit
exposures to participants under normal market conditions.\10\ Rule
17Ad-22(e)(6) requires that a covered clearing agency \11\ shall
establish, implement, maintain, and enforce written policies and
procedures reasonably designed to cover its credit exposures to its
participants by establishing a risk-based margin system that, at a
minimum, calculates margin sufficient to cover its potential future
exposure to participants in the interval between the last margin
collection and the close out of positions following a participant
default and uses an appropriate method for measuring credit exposure
that accounts for relevant product risk factors and portfolio effects
across products.\12\ Rule 17Ad-22(e)(1) requires that a covered
clearing agency shall establish, implement, maintain, and enforce
written policies and procedures reasonably designed to provide for a
well-founded, clear, transparent, and enforceable legal basis for each
aspect of its activities in all relevant jurisdictions.\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(C).
    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1(b)(3)(F).
    \10\ 17 CFR 240.17Ad-22(b)(2).
    \11\ See 17 CFR 240.17Ad-22(a)(5) (defining ``covered clearing
agency'').
    \12\ See 17 CFR 240.17Ad-22(e)(6)(iii), (e)(6)(v).
    \13\17 CFR 240.17Ad-22(e)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 17A of the Act and Rule 17Ad-22 thereunder. In particular,
the Commission finds that the elimination of recovery rate risk charges
is consistent with market convention for pricing index CDS, as
represented by LCH SA and discussed above. Moreover, the Commission
notes that the elimination of this component of LCH SA's margin is
expected to have only a minor impact on the total amount of margin LCH
SA collects with respect to index CDS. Furthermore, the Commission
notes that LCH SA will continue to consider and address recovery rate
risk on index CDS in its stress scenarios used to size its default
fund. Based on these findings and considerations, the Commission
believes that the proposed rule change is reasonably designed to use
margin requirements to limit its credit exposures to participants under
normal market conditions, calculate margin sufficient to cover its
potential future exposure to participants in the interval between the
last margin collection and the close out of positions following a
participant default and use an appropriate method for measuring credit
exposure that accounts for relevant product risk factors and portfolio
effects across products, consistent with Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the
Exchange Act,\14\ and Rules 17Ad-22(b)(2), (e)(6)(iii), and (e)(6)(v)
thereunder.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1(b)(3)(F).
    \15\ 17 CFR 240.17Ad-22(b)(2), (e)(6)(iii), and (e)(6)(v).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With respect to the portion of the proposed rule change that
revises the Reference Guide to (i) correct a hyperlink and (ii) add a
cross reference and hyperlink to the general inputs considered by LCH
SA in constructing the CDS pricing for European and U.S. dollar
denominated contracts, the Commission believes that correcting an
erroneous hyperlink and providing an additional cross-reference and
hyperlink would make the Reference Guide more clear to those who use
it, consistent with Rule 17Ad-22(e)(1).\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ 17 CFR 240.17Ad-22(e)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Conclusion

    It is therefore ordered pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act
that the proposed rule change (SR-LCH SA-2017-003) be, and hereby is,
approved.\17\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ In approving the proposed rule change, the Commission
considered the proposal's impact on efficiency, competition, and
capital formation. 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \18\ 17 CFR 200.30-3(a)(12).

    For the Commission by the Division of Trading and Markets,
pursuant to delegated authority.\18\

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2022-0017; Project Identifier AD-2022-00058-T;
Amendment 39-21937; AD 2022-03-20]

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
The Boeing Company Model 737-8, 737-9, and 737-8200 airplanes. This AD
was prompted by a determination that radio altimeters cannot be relied
upon to perform their intended function if they experience interference
from wireless broadband operations in the 3.7-3.98 GHz frequency band
(5G C-Band), and a recent determination that, during takeoffs and
landings, as a result of this interference, certain airplane systems
may not properly function, resulting in longer than normal landing or
rejected takeoff distances due to the effect on thrust reverser
deployment, spoilers, speedbrake deployment, and increased idle thrust,
regardless of the approach type or weather. This AD requires revising
the limitations and operating procedures sections of the existing
airplane flight manual (AFM) to incorporate limitations prohibiting the
use of certain minimum equipment list (MEL) items, and to incorporate
operating procedures for calculating takeoff and landing distances,
when in the presence of 5G C-Band interference as identified by Notices
to Air Missions (NOTAMs). The FAA is issuing this AD to address the
unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective January 31, 2022.
    The FAA must receive comments on this AD by March 17, 2022.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    In March 2020, the United States Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) adopted final rules authorizing flexible use of the 3.7-3.98 GHz
band for next generation services, including 5G and other advanced
spectrum-based services.\1\ Pursuant to these rules, C-Band wireless
broadband deployment was permitted to occur in phases with the
opportunity for operations in the lower 0.1 GHz of the band (3.7-3.8
GHz) in certain markets beginning on January 19, 2022. This AD refers
to ``5G C-Band'' interference, but wireless broadband technologies,
other than 5G, may use the same frequency band.\2\ These other uses of
the same frequency band are within the scope of this AD since they
would introduce the same risk of radio altimeter interference as 5G C-
Band.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The FCC's rules did not make C-Band wireless broadband
available in Alaska, Hawaii, and the U.S. Territories.
    \2\ The regulatory text of the AD uses the term ``5G C-Band''
which, for purposes of this AD, has the same meaning as ``5G'', ``C-
Band'' and ``3.7-3.98 GHz.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The radio altimeter is an important aircraft instrument, and its
intended function is to provide direct height-above-terrain/water
information to a variety of aircraft systems. Commercial aviation radio
altimeters operate in the 4.2-4.4 GHz band, which is separated by 0.22
GHz from the C-Band telecommunication systems in the 3.7-3.98 GHz band.
The radio altimeter is more precise than a barometric altimeter and for
that reason is used where aircraft height over the ground needs to be
precisely measured, such as autoland, manual landings, or other low
altitude operations. The receiver on the radio altimeter is typically
highly accurate, however it may deliver erroneous results in the
presence of out-of-band radio frequency emissions from other frequency
bands. The radio altimeter must detect faint signals reflected off the
ground to measure altitude, in a manner similar to radar. Out-of-band
signals could significantly degrade radio altimeter functions during
critical phases of flight, if the altimeter is unable to sufficiently
reject those signals.
    The FAA issued AD 2021-23-12, Amendment 39-21810 (86 FR 69984,
December 9, 2021) (AD 2021-23-12) to address the effect of 5G C-Band
interference on all transport and commuter category airplanes equipped
with a radio (also known as radar) altimeter. AD 2021-23-12 requires
revising the limitations section of the existing AFM to incorporate
limitations prohibiting certain operations, which require radio
altimeter data to land in low visibility conditions, when in the
presence of 5G C-Band interference as identified by NOTAM. The FAA
issued AD 2021-23-12 because radio altimeter anomalies that are
undetected by the automation or pilot, particularly close to the ground
(e.g., landing flare), could lead to loss of continued safe flight and
landing.
    Since the FAA issued AD 2021-23-12, Boeing has continued to
evaluate potential 5G C-Band interference on

aircraft systems that rely on radio altimeter inputs. Boeing issued
Boeing Multi Operator Message MOM-MOM-22-0016-01B(R1), dated January
16, 2022, and Boeing Flight Crew Operations Manual Bulletin TBC-26,
``Radio Altimeter Anomalies due to 5G C-Band Wireless Broadband
Interference in the United States,'' dated January 17, 2022.
    Based on Boeing's data, the FAA identified an additional hazard
presented by 5G C-Band interference on The Boeing Company 737-8, 737-9,
and 737-8200 airplanes. The FAA determined anomalies due to 5G C-Band
interference may affect multiple other airplane systems using radio
altimeter data, regardless of the approach type or weather. These
anomalies may not be evident until very low altitudes. Impacted systems
include, but are not limited to: Autopilot flight director system;
autothrottle system; engines; thrust reversers; flight controls; flight
instruments; traffic alert and collision avoidance system (TCAS);
ground proximity warning system (GPWS); and configuration warnings.
    As a result of erroneous radio altimeter data provided to these
systems in the event of 5G C-Band interference, takeoff and landing
performance can be adversely impacted. This may have multiple effects,
including:
     Autothrottle may remain in speed (SPD) mode and may
increase thrust to maintain speed during flare instead of reducing the
thrust to IDLE at 27 feet radio altitude (RA) or may reduce thrust to
IDLE prematurely.
     Thrust reversers may not deploy during rejected takeoff or
landing roll.
     Engines may be at higher idle during rejected takeoff or
remain at approach idle after touchdown.
     Automatic speedbrake may not deploy after touchdown during
the landing roll.
     SPEEDBRAKE EXTENDED light may not be available or may
illuminate erroneously during the landing roll.
     SPEEDBRAKE time critical visual and aural warnings may not
be available during the landing roll.
     Spoilers may be limited to their maximum in-flight
position during manual deployment after rejected takeoff or touchdown
during the landing roll.
     Landing Attitude Modifier may be erroneous.
     Other simultaneous flight deck effects associated with the
5G C-Band interference could increase pilot workload.
    As a result of these effects, lack of thrust reverser and
speedbrake deployment, limited spoiler extension, and increased idle
thrust may occur; and brakes may be the only means to slow the
airplane. Therefore, the presence of 5G C-Band interference can result
in degraded deceleration performance, subsequently resulting in longer
than normal landing or rejected takeoff distances, which could lead to
a runway excursion. This is an unsafe condition.
    The severity of the hazard created by a lack of thrust reverser and
speedbrake deployment, limited spoiler extension, and by increased idle
thrust, increases when the runway is contaminated with frozen or liquid
precipitation. The FAA categorizes runway surface conditions with codes
from 6 through 0, with 6 being a dry runway and therefore no
detrimental effect on braking, and a code of 0 denoting surface
conditions, such as wet ice, in which braking may not be effective.
    This AD mandates procedures for operators to account for this
longer than normal landing or rejected takeoff distances, for all
runway conditions, in the presence of 5G C-Band interference as
identified by NOTAM. It prohibits operators from dispatching or
releasing airplanes to or from affected airports when certain braking
and anti-skid functions on the airplane are inoperable. It also
prohibits operators from dispatch or release to, or takeoff or landing
on, runways with condition codes 1 and 0.
    The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

FAA's Determination

    The FAA is issuing this AD because the agency has determined the
unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop in
other products of the same type design.

AD Requirements

    This AD requires revising the limitations and operating procedures
sections of the existing AFM to incorporate limitations prohibiting the
use of certain MEL items, and to incorporate operating procedures for
calculating takeoff and landing distances, when in the presence of 5G
C-Band interference as identified by NOTAMs.

Compliance With AFM Revisions

    Section 91.9 prohibits any person from operating a civil aircraft
without complying with the operating limitations specified in the AFM.
FAA regulations also require operators to furnish pilots with any
changes to the AFM (14 CFR 121.137) and pilots in command to be
familiar with the AFM (14 CFR 91.505).

Interim Action

    The FAA considers this AD to be an interim action. If final action
is later identified, the FAA might consider further rulemaking.

Justification for Immediate Adoption and Determination of the Effective
Date

    Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies to dispense with notice and
comment procedures for rules when the agency, for ``good cause,'' finds
that those procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to
the public interest.'' Under this section, an agency, upon finding good
cause, may issue a final rule without providing notice and seeking
comment prior to issuance. Further, section 553(d) of the APA
authorizes agencies to make rules effective in less than thirty days,
upon a finding of good cause.
    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of
this AD without providing an opportunity for public comments prior to
adoption. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public
justifies forgoing notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule
because during takeoffs and landings, as a result of 5G C-Band
interference, certain airplane systems may not properly function,
resulting in longer than normal landing or rejected takeoff distances
due to the effect on thrust reverser deployment, spoilers, speedbrake
deployment, and increased idle thrust, regardless of the approach type
or weather. This could result in a runway excursion. The urgency is
based on C-Band wireless broadband deployment, which was expected to
occur in phases with operations beginning on January 19, 2022.
Accordingly, notice and opportunity for prior public comment are
impracticable and contrary to the public interest pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B).
    In addition, the FAA finds that good cause exists pursuant to 5
U.S.C. 553(d) for making this amendment effective in less than 30 days,
for the same reasons the FAA found good cause to forgo notice and
comment.

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written data, views, or arguments
about this final rule. Send your comments to an address listed under
ADDRESSES. Include Docket No. FAA-2022-0017 and Project Identifier AD-
2022-00058-T at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful
comments reference a specific portion of the final rule, explain the
reason for any recommended

change, and include supporting data. The FAA will consider all comments
received by the closing date and may amend this final rule because of
those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to
https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you
provide. The agency will also post a report summarizing each
substantive verbal contact received about this final rule.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this AD contain commercial
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to
this AD, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public
docket of this AD. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Dean
Thompson, Senior Aerospace Engineer, Systems and Equipment Section,
FAA, Seattle ACO Branch, 2200 South 216th St., Des Moines, WA 98198;
phone and fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>; email: [email protected]. Any
commentary that the FAA receives that is not specifically designated as
CBI will be placed in the public docket for this rulemaking.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) do not
apply when an agency finds good cause pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt
a rule without prior notice and comment. Because the FAA has determined
that it has good cause to adopt this rule without notice and comment,
RFA analysis is not required.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 177 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with 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, and
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska.

more RIA comments (but a shorter list!)

Ron,

A few more comments and key next steps on review of the RIA :

1) we spoke today on table 5-1 on pg 5-8 about the cost per ton for EGUs seeming low, and the explanation that it averages out across the year - can we speak on that again briefly?  I'm afraid that it doesn't make sense to me, although it might make perfect sense when you add the clarifying bullet we agreed to explain what is represented in the table  We can try again tomorrow, we can bring in the OAP people if needed

2) Chap 9 Appendix A - I would like to move the sentence "Cost for all standards .... $1.8 Bcosts, ... benefits at 3% ... benes at 7%" forward to one of the first 2 paragraphs.  The point of the appendix is to provide this result, and yet the result is somewhat buried at the end of a paragraph a couple of pages into the appendix  No problem with bringing the result forward.

3) Same sentence as #2 (the cost and bene consequence of the alt baseline); can we please place that sentence in other mentions of the alternative baseline, namely the ES and Intro paragraphs and also in the body of Chapter 9?  Thank you.  The sentence should appear in the body of 9 already, look near the summary table.  I think we have also included in the ES but I don't see a problem finding a place if not.  I would like to match the presentation in chapter 9 for the ES.  The only question may be in the intro to chapter 9, if we don't mention the costs of our approach in the intro to 9 I would not want the alternative there, but if it is we can provide some balance.

4) Chapter 9 appendix - you probably want to add the references for studies mentioned in the footnotes, also the study by OTAQ on the uptake of Plug-In Hybrid vehicles  We will ask OTAQ for that

More importantly, asap we need to follow up to earlier comments :

5) Let's talk about your response to Friday email agreed, need to discuss these

- including South Coast and San Joaquin results in body of RIA

- Moving Chap 6 to appendix of 5B

- Other points of disagreement from interagency / OMB comments on Chapter 6

6)  We should also go through the result of your "will review" on other comments from the Friday email and anything in this email

Thanks !!  I look forward to talking tomorrow,

heidi

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-76334; File No. SR-ISE-2015-35]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; International Securities Exchange;
Notice of Filing of Proposed Rule Change To Comply With the
Requirements of Rule 1004 of Regulation SCI

November 3, 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 October 23, 2015, the International Securities Exchange, LLC
(the ``Exchange'' or the ``ISE'') filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission the proposed rule change as described in Items I,
II, and III 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    ISE proposes to designate all members that function as Primary
Market Makers (``PMMs'') and Linkage Handlers (collectively
``designated members'') as necessary for the maintenance of a fair and
orderly market should business continuity and disaster recovery plans
(collectively ``DR Plans'') be activated, and proposes to require
designated members to participate in scheduled functional and
performance testing of the operation of such DR Plans by amending amend
Rules 803, Obligations of Market Makers, and 1903, Order Routing to
Other Exchanges. The text of the proposed rule change is available on
the Exchange's Web site at www.ise.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 self-regulatory organization
included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the
proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of these statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The 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
    Rule 1004 requires the establishment of standards for the
designation of those members the Exchange reasonably determines are,
taken as a whole, the minimum necessary for the maintenance of a fair
and orderly market should the Exchange's business continuity and
disaster recovery plans be activated. Rule 1004 also requires the
Exchange to designate members pursuant to those standards and require
participation by such members in scheduled functional and performance
testing of the operation of such plans, in the manner and frequency
specified by the Exchange, provided that such frequency shall not be
less than once every 12 months. Therefore, in accordance with Rule
1004, the Exchange proposes to designate all PMMs \3\ and Linkage
Handlers,\4\ as the minimum necessary for the maintenance of a fair and
orderly market should the Exchange's DR Plans be activated. This
proposed rule also mandates participation by designated members in
scheduled functional and

performance testing of the operation of such DR Plans.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ A PMM posts two-sided continuous quotations in all of the
options classes to which it is appointed and undertakes special
responsibilities for maintaining fair and orderly markets. PMM
memberships are represented by PMM Trading Rights. The options
classes trading on the ISE are divided into groups or ``bins'', each
with one PMM. One PMM member may, however, represent more than one
bin.
    \4\ A Linkage Handler is a broker that is unaffiliated with the

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

Background
    On November 19, 2014, the Securities and Exchange Commission
unanimously voted to adopt Regulation SCI, which is a set of rules
designed to strengthen the technology infrastructure of the U.S.
securities markets.\5\ Specifically, the rules are designed to reduce
the occurrence of systems issues, improve resiliency when systems
problems do occur, and enhance the Commission's oversight and
enforcement of securities market technology infrastructure.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 73639 (November 19,
2014), 79 FR 72252 (December 5, 2014) (``SCI Adopting Release'').
    \6\ Division of Trading and Markets, Responses to Frequently
Asked Questions Concerning Regulation SCI at https://www.sec.gov/divisions/marketreg/regulation-sci-faq.shtml.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Regulation SCI applies to ``SCI entities,'' a term which includes
SROs such as ISE. Regulation SCI requires SCI entities to, among other
things, (1) establish written policies and procedures reasonably
designed to ensure that their systems have levels of capacity,
integrity, resiliency, availability, and security adequate to maintain
their operational capability; (2) mandate participation by designated
members in scheduled testing of the operation of their business
continuity and disaster recovery plans, including backup systems, and
to coordinate such testing on an industry- or sector-wide basis with
other SCI entities; (3) take corrective action with respect to ``SCI
events'' (such as systems disruptions, systems compliance issues, and
systems intrusions), and to notify the Commission of such events; (4)
disseminate information about certain SCI events to affected members
and, for certain ``major'' SCI events, to all members; and (5) review
their systems by objective, qualified personnel at least annually, to
submit quarterly reports regarding completed, ongoing, and planned
material changes to their SCI systems to the Commission, and to
maintain certain books and records.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Proposed Rule Change
    Rule 1004 of Regulation SCI requires the establishment of standards
for the designation of those members ISE reasonably determines are,
taken as a whole, the minimum necessary for the maintenance of a fair
and orderly market should the Exchange activate its DR Plans. To comply
with this rule, the Exchange proposes to amend .02 of Supplementary
Material to Rule 803, Obligations of Market Makers, and .03 of
Supplementary Material to Rule 1903, Order Routing to Other Exchanges,
by designating all members that function as PMMs and Linkage Handlers,
respectively.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ The Exchange notes that these designations are determined by
the members' respective functions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ISE believes PMMs (together with Linkage Handlers) meet the
requirements of Regulation SCI because they are vital to maintaining a
fair and orderly market. Among other things, PMMs compete with other
market makers \9\ to improve the market in all series of options
classes to which the PMM is appointed; make markets that are honored
for the number of contracts entered into the Exchange's system in all
series of options classes to which the PMM is appointed; update market
quotations in response to changed market conditions in all series of
options classes to which the PMM is appointed; and price option
contracts fairly.\10\ If the DR Plans are activated, PMMs will ensure
ISE's market continues to run smoothly. Similarly, Linkage Handlers
meet the requirements of Regulation SCI because they route orders to
other exchanges when ISE is not at the National Best Bid or Offer
(``NBBO''). Should the DR Plans be activated, Linkage Handlers will
ensure that investors receive the best price available across all
exchanges for their orders.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ Market makers refers to ``Competitive Market Makers'' and
``PMMs'' collectively. See Rule 100(a)(25).
    \10\ See Rule 803.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Rule 1004 also requires that the Exchange mandate participation by
designated members in scheduled functional and performance testing of
the operation of such plans, in the manner and frequency specified by
the Exchange, provided that such frequency shall not be less than once
every 12 months. The Exchange now proposes that PMMs and Linkage
Handlers are required to participate in scheduled functional and
performance testing of such plans at least once every 12 months. This
testing will prepare the designated members for certain SCI events, and
enable the market to continue operating without major issues during
such events.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the requirements of the Act, and the rules and regulations
thereunder that are applicable to a national securities exchange, and,
in particular, with the requirements of section 6(b) of the Act.\11\ In
particular, the proposal is consistent with section 6(b)(5) of the
Act,\12\ because it is designed to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, remove impediments to and perfect the mechanisms
of a free and open market and a national market system and, in general,
to protect investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes the proposed rule is consistent with the
Exchange Act because it complies with Regulation SCI's requirements.
ISE's rule designates members it determines are necessary for the
maintenance of a fair and orderly market if the Exchange's DR Plans are
activated and mandates participation by designated members in scheduled
functional and performance testing of the DR Plans at least once every
12 months.
    The Exchange further believes the proposed rule change is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest
because ISE has designated PMMs, which maintain a fair and orderly
market by making markets that are honored, competing with other market
makers to improve the market, updating market quotations, and pricing
option contracts fairly. Similarly, ISE has also designated Linkage
Handlers, which route certain orders to other exchanges when ISE is not
at the NBBO. This provides investors with the best price available
across exchanges for their orders. Further, the proposed rule is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest
because, as proposed, these designated members are required to
participate in functional and performance testing of the DR Plans. As a
result, if the DR Plans are activated, the designated members and their
systems will be prepared to handle a potential SCI event and ensure
that investors can continue to trade during the event.

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

    This proposed rule change does not impose any burden on competition
that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of
the Exchange Act because ISE is implementing the requirements of
Regulation SCI.

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

    The Exchange has neither solicited nor received written comments on
this proposed rule change. The Exchange

has not received any written comments from members or other interested
parties.

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

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not significantly
affect the protection of investors or the public interest, does not
impose any significant burden on competition, and, by its terms, does
not 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 \13\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6) thereunder.\14\ The Exchange provided 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 the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission, as
required by Rule 19b-4(f)(6).

    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \14\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such 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.

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:

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 71158; File No. SR-NASDAQ-2013-158]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC;
Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change
Relating to Acceptable Trade Range

December 20, 2013.
    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 December 16, 2013, The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (``NASDAQ'' or
``Exchange'') 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 NASDAQ. The Commission is
publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change
from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    NASDAQ proposes to delay the implementation of a recent proposed
amendment to rule text related to Acceptable Trade Range.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's
Web site at http://www.nasdaq.cchwallstreet.com, at the principal
office of the Exchange, at the Commission's Public Reference Room, and
on the Commission's Web site at http://www.sec.gov.

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 delay the
implementation of a recent proposed amendment to rule text in Chapter
VI, Section 10 entitled ``Book Processing'' to add additional rule text
regarding Acceptable Trade Range. The Acceptable Trade Range
enhancements would be implemented as of December 23, 2013.\3\ At this
time, the Exchange needs additional time to implement the applicable
technology. Accordingly, the Exchange seeks to be able to implement the
changes in January 2014. The Exchange will announce the specific date
in advance through an Options Trader Alert.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Securities Exchange Act Release No. 70985 (December 4,
2013), 78 FR 74206, (December 10, 2013) (SR-NASDAQ-2013-145).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Acceptable Trade Range is a mechanism to prevent the system \4\
[sic] from experiencing dramatic price swings by creating a level of
protection that prevents the market from moving beyond set thresholds.
The thresholds consist of a Reference Price plus (minus) set dollar
amounts based on the nature of the option and the premium of the
option.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The term ``System'' shall mean the automated System for
order execution and trade reporting owned and operated by The Nasdaq
Options Market LLC. See NOM Rules at Chapter VI, Section 1(a).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With the rule amendment, the System will calculate an Acceptable
Trade Range by taking the reference price, plus or minus a value to be
determined by the Exchange. (i.e., the reference price--(x) for sell
orders and the reference price + (x) for buy orders).\5\ Upon receipt
of a new order, the reference price is the National Best Bid (NBB) for
sell orders and the National Best Offer (NBO) for buy orders or the
last price at which the order is posted whichever is higher for a buy
order or lower for a sell order. If an order reaches the outer limit of
the Acceptable Trade Range (the ``Threshold Price'') without being
fully executed, it will be posted at the Threshold Price for a brief
period, not to exceed one second (``Posting Period''), to allow more
liquidity to be collected. Upon posting, either the current Threshold
Price of the order or an updated NBB for buy orders or the NBO for sell
orders (whichever is higher for a buy order/lower for a sell order)
then becomes the reference price for calculating a new Acceptable Trade
Range. If the order remains unexecuted, a new Acceptable Trade Range
will be calculated and the order will execute, route, or post up to the
new Acceptable Trade Range Threshold Price. Today, this process will
repeat until either (i) the order/quote is executed, cancelled, or
posted at its limit price or (ii) the order has been subject to a
configurable number of instances of the Acceptable Trade Range as
determined by the Exchange.\6\ Once the maximum number of instances has
been reached, the order is returned.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The Acceptable Trade Range settings are tied to the option
premium.
    \6\ NOM Participants may elect to have their orders cancelled by
the System after the first iteration.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange posts a maximum number of Acceptable Trade Range
iterations, until the order is cancelled on its Trading System Settings
page located on the NASDAQTrader.com Web site.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with Section
6(b) of the Act \7\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section
6(b)(5) of the Act \8\ 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 by enhancing the ATR [sic] to make
the Exchange's markets more efficient, to the benefit of the investing
public. Although the Exchange needs additional time to finalize the
enhancements, the delay is expected to be short and will involve
advance notice to the Exchange membership.

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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. The Exchange believes this proposed rule change would provide
NOM Participants greater certainty when transacting orders on the
Exchange and continue to reduce the negative impacts of sudden,
unanticipated volatility in and enhance the price-discovery process.

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 Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \9\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\10\
Because the 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 prior to
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, the proposed rule change has become
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \11\ and Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) thereunder.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)
requires the Exchange to give the Commission written notice of the
Exchange's 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 satisfied this requirement.
    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)
    \12\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \13\ normally
does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the
filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\14\ the Commission
may 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 Commission notes that
waiver of the operative delay would permit the Exchange to delay the
implementation of a recent proposed amendment to rule text related to
Acceptable Trade Range.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \14\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Under the proposal, the Exchange would delay the implementation of
the Acceptable Trade Range rule text changes from December 23, 2013, to
January on a specific date to be announced in advance through an
Options Trader Alert. The Exchange represents that a waiver of the 30-
day operative delay is necessary and appropriate to ensure that the

technology for the changes is ready for implementation. The Exchange
further represents that the delay will be short and that it will
provide advance notice of the implementation date to its membership.
Based on the Exchange's representations, the Commission waives the 30-
day operative delay requirement and designates the proposed rule change
as operative upon filing.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ 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 such 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 under
Section 19(b)(2)(B) \16\ of the Act to determine whether the proposed
rule change should be approved or disapproved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(B).

change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
