This proposed rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in subtitle VII, part, A, subpart I, section 40103. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace. This proposed regulation is within the scope of that authority as it would amend Class D and existing Class E airspace and establish Class E airspace designated as surface areas at Patuxent River NAS, Patuxent River, MD.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background Regulation 1.20 (17 CFR 1.20) requires futures commission merchants (FCMs) that accept customer funds and derivatives clearing organizations (DCOs) that accept customer funds from FCMs to segregate and separately account for those funds.1 Currently, Regulation 1.20 requires such FCMs and DCOs to obtain from the bank, trust company, FCM or DCO 2 holding customer funds in the capacity of a depository (each, a ‘‘Depository’’) a written acknowledgment that the Depository was informed that the customer funds deposited therein are those of commodity or option customers and are being held in accordance with the provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act (Act) 3 and CFTC regulations.4 Regulation 1.26 (17 CFR 1.26), which requires FCMs and DCOs to segregate and separately account for instruments purchased with customer funds, repeats the requirement to obtain an acknowledgment letter. FCMs also must obtain a similar written acknowledgment from Depositories holding ‘‘secured amount’’ funds 5 required under Regulation 30.7 (17 CFR 30.7), which governs the treatment of money, securities, and property held for or on behalf of the FCM’s foreign futures and foreign options customers. On February 20, 2009, the Commission published proposed amendments to Regulations 1.20, 1.26, and 30.7 for public comment.6 The proposed amendments set out specific representations that would be required in the acknowledgment letters in order to reaffirm and clarify the obligations that Depositories incur when accepting 1 See 17 CFR 1.3(gg) (defining the term ‘‘customer funds’’). 2 Regulation 1.20(a) does not require a written acknowledgment to be obtained from ‘‘a derivatives clearing organization that has adopted and submitted to the Commission rules that provide for the segregation as customer funds, in accordance with all relevant provisions of the Act and the rules and orders promulgated thereunder, of all funds held on behalf of customers.’’ 3 7 U.S.C. 1 et seq. 4 17 CFR parts 1–199. 5 See 17 CFR 1.3(rr) (defining the term ‘‘foreign futures or foreign options secured amount’’). 6 74 FR 7838 (February 20, 2009).

In response, the Commission received comment letters from the Futures Industry Association (‘‘FIA’’), Joint Audit Committee (‘‘JAC’’), National Futures Association (‘‘NFA’’), Managed Funds Association (‘‘MFA’’), and Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP (‘‘Katten’’), which are discussed below. In light of the comments received, the Commission has determined to re-propose the amendments to Regulations 1.20, 1.26, and 30.7, with several changes made in response to the comments. In addition, the Commission is proposing standard template acknowledgment letters that would be required to be used. These are proposed for inclusion in a new Appendix A to each of Regulations 1.20, 1.26, and 30.7. The Commission invites public comment on all aspects of the proposed regulations and the proposed letters. II. Comments Received FIA generally supported the proposed regulations but requested that the effective date of the final rule be extended beyond the proposed date of 180 days from the date of publication in the Federal Register to allow FCMs, DCOs, and Depositories sufficient time to negotiate and put in place acknowledgment letters satisfying the proposed Commission regulations and also to allow them an opportunity to work together to develop a standard template acknowledgment letter that would satisfy the proposed regulations. In addition, FIA expressed interest in having its member Depositories work with the Commission on a standardized notice, authentication, and instruction protocol and encouraged the Commission to develop a system for electronic filing of the new acknowledgment letters. The JAC supported the proposed regulations but requested guidance regarding the circumstances that would necessitate updating acknowledgment letters (e.g., name change of FCM or depository, merger of FCM or depository, addition or deletion of account number) as well as acceptable timeframes for such updating. In addition, the JAC questioned the benefit of requiring submission of acknowledgment letters to the Commission without also requiring documentation necessary for verification. Finally, the JAC requested that the Commission amend Regulation 30.7 to provide relief, similar to that provided under Regulations 1.20 and 1.26, that would exempt DCOs from having to provide acknowledgment E:\FR\FM\09AUP1.SGM 09AUP1
