processing information with respect to,
and facilitating transactions in
securities, to remove impediments to
and perfect the mechanism of a free and
open market and a national market
system, and, in general, to protect
investors and the public interest. In
particular, the proposal will permit
members to provide liquidity to
customer orders on a timelier basis, thus
providing investors with more speedy
executions. At the same time, it will
preserve a reasonable period for orders
to interact in the auction market.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The BSE does not believe that the
proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act.

Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others

III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
Because the foregoing proposed rule
change does not: (i) Significantly affect
the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) impose any significant
burden on competition; and (iii) become
operative for 30 days from the date on
which it was filed, or such shorter time
as the Commission may designate, it has
become effective pursuant to section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 8 and Rule 19b–
4(f)(6) thereunder.9
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the
Commission may summarily abrogate
such rule change if it appears to the
Commission that such action is
necessary or appropriate in the public
interest, for the protection of investors,
or otherwise in furtherance of the
purposes of the Act.
A proposed rule change filed under
Rule 19b–4(f)(6) normally may not
become operative prior to 30 days after
the date of filing.10 However, Rule 19b–
4(f)(6)(iii) 11 permits the Commission to
designate a shorter time if such action
is consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest. The
BSE provided the Commission with
written notice of its intent to file this
U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).

provisions of 5 U.S.C. 552, will be
available for inspection and copying in
the Commission’s Public Reference
Room. Copies of such filing also will be
available for inspection and copying at
the principal office of the BSE. All
comments received will be posted
without change; the Commission does
not edit personal identifying
information from submissions. You
should submit only information that
you wish to make available publicly. All

IV. Solicitation of Comments
For the Commission, by the Division of
Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated
authority.14
Nancy M. Morris,
Secretary.
[FR Doc. E6–8357 Filed 5–30–06; 8:45 am]
Interested persons are invited to
submit written data, views and
arguments concerning the foregoing,
including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act.
Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:
Electronic Comments
The BSE has neither solicited nor
received comments on the proposed
rule change.
8 15
proposed rule change at least five
business days prior to the date of filing
of the proposed rule change. In
addition, the BSE has requested that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative
delay. The Commission believes that
waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest
because the proposed rule change is
based on rules recently approved by the
Commission for two other exchanges.12
For this reason, the Commission
designates the proposal to be effective
and operative upon filing with the
Commission.13

Notice Convening an Accountability
Review Board To Examine the
Circumstances of the Death of Mr.
David E. Foy and Mr. Iftikhar Ahmed in
March 2006
Pursuant to section 301 of the
Omnibus Diplomatic Security and
Antiterrorism Act of 1986, as amended
(22 U.S.C. 4831 et seq.), the Secretary of
State has determined that a recent attack
on an official motorcade in Karachi,
Pakistan involved loss of life that was at
or related to a U.S. mission abroad.
Therefore, the Secretary has convened
an Accountability Review Board to
examine the facts and the circumstances
of the attacks and to report to me such
findings and recommendations as it
deems appropriate, in keeping with the
attached mandate.
The Secretary has appointed David C.
Fields, a retired U.S. Ambassador, as
Chair of the Board. He will be assisted
by Carolee Heileman, William Pope,
Melvin Harrison, John Weber and the
Executive Secretary to the Board, Hugo
Carl Gettinger. They bring to their
deliberations distinguished backgrounds
in government service and/or in the
private sector.
The Board will submit its conclusions
and recommendations to Secretary Rice
within 60 days of its first meeting,
unless the Chair determines a need for
additional time. Appropriate action will
be taken and reports submitted to
Congress on any recommendations
made by the Board.
Anyone with information relevant to
the Board’s examination of these
incidents should contact the Board
promptly at (202) 647–5204 or send a
fax to (202) 647–3282.
This notice shall be published in the
Federal Register.

BILLING CODE 4710–35–P
Federal Railroad Administration
Petition for Waiver of Compliance
In accordance with part 211 of title 49
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR),
notice is hereby given that the Federal
Railroad Administration (FRA) received
a request for a waiver of compliance
with certain requirements of its safety
standards. The individual petition is
described below, including the party
seeking relief, the regulatory provisions
involved, the nature of the relief being
requested, and the petitioner’s
arguments in favour of relief.
Burlington Northern Sante Fe
Corporation
[Docket Number FRA–2006–24812]
The Burlington Northern Sante Fe
Corporation (BNSF), seeks a temporary
waiver of compliance from certain
provisions of 49 CFR part 232, Brake
System Safety Standards for Freight and
Other Non-Passenger Trains and
Equipment. Specifically, the mileage
and inspection requirements contained
in § 232.213, Extended Haul Trains.
BNSF would like to perform the 1500
mile extended haul inspection for
thirteen select trains at points which
slightly exceed the 1500 mile point for
inbound and outbound inspections for a
period of six months. BNSF does not
believe that this increase will in any
way compromise the safety of BNSF’s
operations. BNSF claims this request is
critical given the increased rate of
demand for coal by the utility industry.
BNSF believes that granting this waiver
for a period of six months will
significantly improve their ability to
transport coal without any degradation
to the safe operation of the following
train sets: E–PAMATM, E–PAMBAM,
E–PAMBTM, E–PAMNAM, E–
PAMSBM, E–PAMEBM, E–MHSATM,
E–MHSBKM, E–MHSCAM, E–
MHSEBM, E–MHSJRM, E–MHSNAM,
E–MHSRWM.
BNSF states that mechanical and
operating forces would be provided the
list of trains allowed to operate past the
1500 mile threshold. Additionally,
BNSF would keep records of any defects
discovered during the inspections, as
required, to include any defective cars
set out enroute.
