Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 217 / Thursday, November 9, 2006 / Notices 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 treat PACE trades that interact with NMS Linkage orders the same as Intermarket Trading System (‘‘ITS’’) commitments with respect to the Exchange’s Charge.7 The NMS Linkage Plan is the successor Plan to the ITS Plan. While there are some operational differences between the two Plans, both Plans facilitate intermarket linkage among market centers trading certain listed securities and the Exchange believes the NMS Linkage Plan is used in a similar manner as the ITS Plan by its members and member organizations. Therefore, the Exchange proposes to apply the Charge to PACE trades that interact with NMS Linkage orders in the identical manner as PACE trades that interact with ITS commitments. This is accomplished by adding the words ‘‘or NMS Linkage order’’ to footnote 1 in the Summary of Equity Charges section of the Exchange’s Fee Schedule. 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that its proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act,8 in general, and furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(4) of the Act,9 in particular, regarding the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among exchange members and other persons using exchange facilities. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES The Exchange has neither solicited nor received comments on the proposed rule change. 7 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 47245 (January 24, 2003), 68 FR 5069 (January 31, 2003) (adopting the current fee treatment of PACE trades that interact with ITS commitments). 8 15 U.S.C. 78f(b). 9 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4). VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:26 Nov 08, 2006 Jkt 211001 III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action The proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act 10 and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 thereunder,11 because it establishes or changes a due, fee, or other charge imposed by the Phlx. 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. IV.

E6–19033 Filed 11–8–06; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910–9X–P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration Approval of Noise Compatibility Program, Columbia Metropolitan Airport, Columbia, SC Federal Aviation Administration, DOT. ACTION: Notice. sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES AGENCY: SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces its findings on the Noise Compatibility Program submitted by the RichlandLexington Airport District under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. (the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act, hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the Act)’’ and 14 CFR part 150. These findings are made in recognition of the description of Federal and nonfederal responsibilities in Senate Report No. 96–52 (1980). On July 29, 2005, the FAA determined that the noise exposure maps submitted by the RichlandLexington Airport District under Part 150 were in compliance with applicable requirements. On September 18, 2006, the FAA approved the Columbia Metropolitan Airport noise compatibility program. Most of the recommendations of the program were approved. VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:26 Nov 08, 2006 Jkt 211001 Effective Date: The effective date of the FAA’s approval of the Columbia Metropolitan Airport Noise Compatibility Program is September 18, 2006. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bonnie Baskin, Federal Aviation Administration, Atlanta Airports District Office, 1701 Columbia Avenue, Campus Building, Suite 2–260, College Park, Georgia 30337, phone number: 404–305–7152. Documents reflecting this FAA action may be reviewed at this same location. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA has given its overall approval to the Noise Compatibility Program for Columbia Metropolitan Airport, effective September 18, 2006. Under Section 47504 of the Act, an airport operator who has previously submitted a Noise Exposure Map may submit to the FAA a Noise Compatibility Program which sets forth the measures taken or proposed by the airport operator for the reduction of existing non-compatible land uses and prevention of additional non-compatible land uses within the area covered by the Noise Exposure Maps. The Act requires such programs to be developed in consultation with interested and affected parties including local communities, government agencies, airport users, and FAA personnel. Each airport noise compatibility program developed in accordance with Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 150 is a local program, not a Federal Program. The FAA does not substitute its judgment for that of the airport operator with respect to which measure should be recommended for action. The FAA’s approval or disapproval of FAR Part 150 program recommendations is measures according to the standards expressed in FAR Part 150 and the Act, and is limited to the following determinations: a. The Noise Compatibility Program was developed in accordance with the provisions and procedures of FAR Part 150; b. Program measures are reasonably consistent with achieving the goals of reducing existing non-compatible land uses around the airport and preventing the introduction of additional noncompatible land uses; c. Program measures would not create an undue burden on interstate or foreign commerce, unjustly discriminate against types of classes of aeronautical uses, violate the terms of airport grant agreements, or intrude into areas preempted by the Federal government; and DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00102 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 d. Program measures relating to the use of flight procedures can be implemented within the period covered by the program without derogating safety, adversely affecting the efficient use and management of the navigable airspace and air traffic control systems, or adversely affecting other powers and responsibilities of the Administrator prescribed by law. Specific limitations with respect to FAA’s approval of an airport Noise Compatibility Program are delineated in FAR Part 150 § 150.5. Approval is not a determination concerning the acceptability of land uses under Federal, State, or local law. Approval does not by itself constitute an FAA implementing action. A request for Federal action or approval to implement specific noise compatibility measures may be required, and an FAA decision on the request may require an environmental assessment of the proposed action. Approval does not constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially assist in the implementation of the program nor a determination that all measures covered by the program are eligible for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA. Where Federal funding is sought, requests for project grants must be submitted to the FAA Airports District Office in Atlanta, Georgia. The Richland-Lexington Airport District submitted to the FAA on April 13, 2005, the Noise Exposure Maps, descriptions, and other documentation produced during the noise compatibility planning study conducted from September 17, 2001, through March 21, 2006. The Columbia Metropolitan Airport Noise Exposure Maps determined by FAA to be in compliance with applicable requirements on July 29, 2005. Notice of this determination was published in the Federal Register on July 29, 2005. The Columbia Metropolitan Airport study contains a proposed Noise Compatibility Program comprised of actions designed for phased implementation by airport management and adjacent jurisdictions from March 21, 2006 to the year 2011. It was requested that FAA evaluate and approved this material as a Noise Compatibility Program as described in Section 47504 of the Act. The FAA began its review of the Program on March 22, 2006, and was required by a provisions of the Act to approve or disapprove the program with 180 days (other than the use of new or modified flight procedures for noise control). Failure to approve or disapprove such program within the 180-day period shall be deemed to be an approval of such program. E:\FR\FM\09NON1.SGM 09NON1
