III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
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 for 30 days from the date on
which it was filed (or such shorter time
as the Commission may designate),9 the
proposed rule change has become
effective pursuant to section 19(b)(3)(A)
of the Act 10 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6)
thereunder.11
The Exchange has requested that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative
delay and designate the proposed rule
change as operative upon filing. The
Commission believes that waiving the
30-day operative delay is consistent
with the protection of investors and the
public interest because this proposal is
solely intended to correlate the
definition of Exchange-Traded Fund
Share in the Phlx Options Rules and is
not intended to change which securities

Act (5 U.S.C. 552a) by describing the
conditions under which computer
matching involving the Federal
government could be performed and
adding certain protections for
individuals applying for and receiving
Federal benefits. Section 7201 of the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of
1990 (Pub. L. 101–508) further amended
the Privacy Act regarding protections for
such individuals.
The Privacy Act, as amended,
regulates the use of computer matching
by Federal agencies when records in a
system of records are matched with
other Federal, State, or local government
records. It requires Federal agencies
involved in computer matching
programs to:
(1) Negotiate written agreements with
the other agency or agencies
participating in the matching programs;
(2) Obtain the approval of the
matching agreement by the Data
Integrity Boards (DIB) of the
participating Federal agencies;
(3) Publish notice of the computer
matching program in the Federal
Register;
(4) Furnish detailed reports about
matching programs to Congress and
OMB;
AGENCY:
Social Security Administration
(SSA).
Notice of the renewal of an
existing computer matching program,
which is scheduled to expire on June
30, 2008.
ACTION:
In accordance with the
provisions of the Privacy Act, as
amended, this notice announces the
renewal of an existing computer
matching program that SSA is currently
conducting with the IRS.
DATES: IRS will file a report of the
subject matching program with the
Committee on Homeland Security and
Governmental Affairs of the Senate; the
Committee on Oversight and
Government Reform of the House of
Representatives, and the Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB). The renewal of the matching
program will be effective as indicated
below.
