Administrative Judge, or if he or she is
unavailable, another administrative
judge, or an administrative law judge
with jurisdiction pursuant to 10 CFR
2.318(a); or (c) if another officer has
been designated to rule on information
access issues, with that officer.
H. Review of Grants of Access. A party
other than the requester may challenge
an NRC staff determination granting
access to SUNSI whose release would
harm that party’s interest independent
of the proceeding. Such a challenge
must be filed with the Chief
Administrative Judge within 5 days of
ATTACHMENT
the notification by the NRC staff of its
grant of access.
If challenges to the NRC staff
determinations are filed, these
procedures give way to the normal
process for litigating disputes
concerning access to information. The
availability of interlocutory review by
the Commission of orders ruling on
such NRC staff determinations (whether
granting or denying access) is governed
by 10 CFR 2.311.3
I. The Commission expects that the
NRC staff and presiding officers (and
any other reviewing officers) will
consider and resolve requests for access
to SUNSI, and motions for protective
43737
orders, in a timely fashion in order to
minimize any unnecessary delays in
identifying those petitioners who have
standing and who have propounded
contentions meeting the specificity and
basis requirements in 10 CFR part 2.
Attachment 1 to this Order summarizes
the general target schedule for
processing and resolving requests under
these procedures.
It is so ordered.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland this 15th day
of July, 2011.
For the Commission.
Annette L. Vietti-Cook,
Secretary of the Commission.
1—GENERAL TARGET SCHEDULE FOR PROCESSING AND RESOLVING REQUESTS FOR ACCESS TO SENSITIVE
UNCLASSIFIED NON-SAFEGUARDS INFORMATION IN THIS PROCEEDING
Day
Event/activity
0 ........................
Publication of Federal Register notice of hearing and opportunity to petition for leave to intervene, including order with instructions for access requests.
Deadline for submitting requests for access to Sensitive Unclassified Non-Safeguards Information (SUNSI) with information:
supporting the standing of a potential party identified by name and address; describing the need for the information in order
for the potential party to participate meaningfully in an adjudicatory proceeding.
Deadline for submitting petition for intervention containing: (i) Demonstration of standing; (ii) all contentions whose formulation
does not require access to SUNSI (+25 Answers to petition for intervention; +7 petitioner/requestor reply).
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff informs the requester of the staff’s determination whether the request for access
provides a reasonable basis to believe standing can be established and shows need for SUNSI. (NRC staff also informs
any party to the proceeding whose interest independent of the proceeding would be harmed by the release of the information.) If NRC staff makes the finding of need for SUNSI and likelihood of standing, NRC staff begins document processing
(preparation of redactions or review of redacted documents).
If NRC staff finds no ‘‘need’’ or no likelihood of standing, the deadline for petitioner/requester to file a motion seeking a ruling
to reverse the NRC staff’s denial of access; NRC staff files copy of access determination with the presiding officer (or Chief
Administrative Judge or other designated officer, as appropriate). If NRC staff finds ‘‘need’’ for SUNSI, the deadline for any
party to the proceeding whose interest independent of the proceeding would be harmed by the release of the information to
file a motion seeking a ruling to reverse the NRC staff’s grant of access.
Deadline for NRC staff reply to motions to reverse NRC staff determination(s).
(Receipt +30) If NRC staff finds standing and need for SUNSI, deadline for NRC staff to complete information processing and
file motion for Protective Order and draft Non-Disclosure Affidavit. Deadline for applicant/licensee to file Non-Disclosure
Agreement for SUNSI.
If access granted: Issuance of presiding officer or other designated officer decision on motion for protective order for access
to sensitive information (including schedule for providing access and submission of contentions) or decision reversing a
final adverse determination by the NRC staff.
Deadline for filing executed Non-Disclosure Affidavits. Access provided to SUNSI consistent with decision issuing the protective order.
Deadline for submission of contentions whose development depends upon access to SUNSI. However, if more than 25 days
remain between the petitioner’s receipt of (or access to) the information and the deadline for filing all other contentions (as
established in the notice of hearing or opportunity for hearing), the petitioner may file its SUNSI contentions by that later
deadline.
(Contention receipt +25) Answers to contentions whose development depends upon access to SUNSI.
(Answer receipt +7) Petitioner/Intervenor reply to answers.
Decision on contention admission.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission, the
Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for
the proposed rule change and discussed
any comments it received on the

I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange is filing with the
Commission a proposal to amend
Exchange Rule 1020 (Registration and
Function of Options Specialists) to
correct a typographical error.
The text of the proposed rule change
is available on the Exchange’s Web site
at https://
nasdaqomxphlx.cchwallstreet.com/
NASDAQOMXPHLX/Filings/, at the
principal office of the Exchange, on the
Commission’s Web site at https://
www.sec.gov, and at the Commission’s
Public Reference Room.
1. Purpose
The purpose of this proposal is to
correct a typographical error in
subsection (a)(v)(B) of Rule 1020. On
June 1, 2011, the Exchange filed an
immediately effective proposal
regarding Remote Specialists (the
‘‘Remote Specialist filing’’) that
expanded the Remote Specialist
concept.3 By the Remote Specialist
filing, the Exchange enhanced the
existing Remote Specialist 4 model so
that all eligible ROTs 5 on the Exchange
3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 64591
(June 2, 2011), 76 FR 33383 (June 8, 2011) (SR–
Phlx–2011–79) (notice of filing and immediate
effectiveness). The rule text proposed in this filing
reflects language changes made in SR–Phlx–2011–
79, which became operative on or about July 2,
2011.
4 A Remote Specialist is an options specialist in
one or more classes that does not have a physical
presence on an Exchange floor and is approved by
the Exchange pursuant to Rule 501. A Remote
Specialist has all the rights and obligations of an
options specialist, unless Exchange rules provide
otherwise. See Rule 1020.
5 An ROT is a regular member or a foreign
currency options participant of the Exchange
located on the trading floor who has received
permission from the Exchange to trade in options
for his own account. See Rule 1014(b)(i).

could function as Remote Specialists;
and eliminated the requirement that an
option may only be allocated to an
RSQT 6 acting as a Remote Specialist if
an option cannot be allocated to (or
retained by) an on-floor specialist. The
Exchange confirmed that all of the key
principles would remain applicable to
Remote Specialists: (a) Remote
Specialists would be subject to all of the
obligations and privileges of floor-based
specialists unless otherwise noted in
Exchange rules; (b) Remote Specialists
and on-floor specialists would have
equivalent quoting requirements; and (c)
RSQTs approved to act as Remote
Specialists would have heightened
quoting obligations when acting as
Remote Specialists in contrast to when
acting as RSQTs. The Exchange also
established in subsection (a)(v) of Rule
1020 that Remote Specialists may have
a representative known as a ‘‘Designee’’
on the trading floor of the Exchange
during trading hours that may represent
the specialist in open outcry trades in a
trading crowd.
There is a typographical error in new
subsection (a)(v)(B) of Rule 1020 as
established in the Remote Specialist
filing whereby a Registered Options
Trader is inadvertently referred to as a
‘‘registered Remote Options Trader.’’
The Exchange is hereby correcting the
error by deleting the word ‘‘Remote’’ so
that the reference in subsection (a)(v)(B)
would be to Registered Options Trader.
The Exchange notes that the proposed
change is wholly in conformity with the
types of traders (market makers) on the
Exchange. That is, unlike Registered
Options Traders, which are defined in
Exchange Rules and the Remote
Specialist filing, there is no defined
category of traders on the Exchange
known as registered Remote Options
Traders. Moreover, the term Registered
Options Trader is used elsewhere in
Rule 1020 as well as throughout
Exchange rules, whereas the term
registered Remote Options Trader is
used only once in error.
The Exchange believes that it is clear
from the context of Rule 1020, Exchange
Rules in general, and the Remote
Specialist filing that the Exchange
intended to refer to Registered Options
Trader in Rule 1020. The Exchange
therefore now corrects the noted
typographical error by referring in
6 An RSQT is an ROT that is a member or member
organization with no physical trading floor
presence who has received permission from the
Exchange to generate and submit option quotations
electronically in options to which such RSQT has
been assigned. An RSQT may only submit such
quotations electronically from off the floor of the
Exchange. See Rule 1014(b)(ii)(B).
