SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
I. Abstract
Based on the management regime
specified each year, designated
regulatory areas in the commercial
ocean salmon fishery off the coasts of
Washington, Oregon, and California
may be managed by numerical quotas.
To accurately assess catches relative to
quota attainment during the fishing
season, catch data by regulatory area
must be collected in a timely manner.
Requirements to land salmon within
specific time frames and in specific
areas may be implemented in the
preseason regulations to aid in timely
and accurate catch accounting for a
regulatory area. State landing systems
normally gather the data at the time of
landing. If unsafe weather conditions or
mechanical problems prevent
compliance with landing requirements,
fishermen need an alternative to allow
for a safe response. Fishermen would be
exempt from landing requirements if the
appropriate notifications are made to
provide the name of the vessel, the port
where delivery will be made, the
approximate amount of salmon (by
species) on board, and the estimated
time of arrival.

SUMMARY: On May 14, 2007, the
Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (‘‘CFTC’’ or the
‘‘Commission’’) published for public
comment in the Federal Register 1 a
proposal to exempt from the CEA 2 the
trading and clearing of certain products
called credit default options (‘‘CDOs’’)
and credit default basket options
(‘‘CDBOs’’) that are proposed to be
traded on the Chicago Board Options
Exchange (‘‘CBOE’’), a national
securities exchange registered under
Section 6 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (‘‘1934 Act’’),3 and cleared

Corporation (‘‘OCC’’), a registered
securities clearing agency registered
under Section 17A of the 1934 Act,4 and
Derivatives Clearing Organization
registered under Section 5b of the CEA.5
The proposed order was preceded by a
request from OCC to approve rules that
would permit it to clear these CDOs and
CDBOs in its capacity as a registered
securities clearing agency. OCC’s
request presented novel and complex
issues of jurisdiction and the
Commission determined that an order
exempting the trading and clearing of
such instruments from pertinent
requirements of the CEA may be
appropriate. The Commission has
reviewed the comments made in
response to its proposal and the entire
record in this matter and has
determined to issue an order exempting
the trading and clearing of these
contracts from the CEA.
Authority for this exemption is found
in Section 4(c) of the CEA.6
