A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b–4(f)(6)12 normally does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b4(f)(6)(iii),13 the Commission may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has asked the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that the proposal may become operative immediately upon filing. The Commission believes that it is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest to waive the 30-day operative delay. Waiver of the 30-day operative delay will allow persons engaged solely in proprietary trading to use the Proprietary Traders Qualification Examination (‘‘Series 56’’) as soon as it is available for NYSEAmex in Web CRD. Therefore, the Commission designates the proposal operative upon filing.14 At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of 10 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii). 11 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). 12 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). 13 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii). 14 For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay, the Commission has considered the proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation.

China North East Petroleum Holdings Limited, Order of Suspension 
of Trading

March 1, 2012.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(``Commission'') that there is a lack of current and accurate 
information concerning the securities of China North East Petroleum 
Holdings Limited (``NEP''), a Nevada corporation with principal 
executive offices in New York and oil drilling operations in the 
People's Republic of China. NEP's common stock is registered with the 
Commission pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 
1934 (the ``Exchange Act'') and is traded on NYSE Amex.
    Questions have arisen regarding the accuracy and completeness of 
information contained in NEP's public filings with the Commission 
concerning, among other things, certain transfers of cash from the 
company's bank accounts to the personal bank accounts of related 
parties.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the 
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the 
securities of NEP.
    Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Exchange 
Act, that trading in the above-listed company is suspended for the 
period from 9:30 a.m. EST, March 1, 2012, through 11:59 p.m. EDT, on 
March 14, 2012.

    By the Commission.
Elizabeth M. Murphy,
Secretary.
