Summary: In accordance with the
requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
which provides opportunity for public
comment on new or revised data
collections, the Railroad Retirement
Board (RRB) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed data collections.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed information collection is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information has practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of the information; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden related to
the collection of information on

other forms of information technology.
1. Title and purpose of information
collection: Evidence of Marital
Relationship, Living with Requirements;
OMB 3220–0021.
To support an application for a
spouse or widow(er)’s annuity under
Sections 2(c) or 2(d) of the Railroad
Retirement Act, an applicant must
submit proof of a valid marriage to a
railroad employee. In some cases, the
existence of a marital relationship is not
formalized by a civil or religious
ceremony. In other cases, questions may
arise about the legal termination of a
prior marriage of the employee, spouse,
or widow(er). In these instances, the
RRB must secure additional information
to resolve questionable marital
relationships. The circumstances
requiring an applicant to submit
documentary evidence of marriage are
prescribed in 20 CFR 219.30.
In the absence of documentary
evidence, the RRB needs to determine if
a valid marriage existed between a
spouse or widow(er) annuity applicant
and a railroad employee. The RRB
utilizes Forms G–124, Individual
Statement of Marital Relationship; G–
124a, Certification of Marriage
Information; G–237, Statement
Regarding Marital Status; G–238,
Statement of Residence; and G–238a,
Statement Regarding Divorce or
Annulment, to secure the needed
information. One response is requested
of each respondent. Completion is
required to obtain benefits. The RRB
proposes minor non-burden impacting
changes to the forms in the collection.

2. Title and purpose of information
collection: Voluntary Customer Surveys
in Accordance with E.O. 12862; OMB
3220–0192.
In accordance with Executive Order
12862, the Railroad Retirement Board
(RRB) conducts a number of customer
surveys designed to determine the kinds
and quality of services our beneficiaries,
claimants, employers and members of
the public want and expect, as well as
their satisfaction with existing RRB
services. The information collected is
used by RRB management to monitor
customer satisfaction by determining to
what extent services are satisfactory and
where and to what extent services can
be improved. The surveys are limited to
data collections that solicit strictly
voluntary opinions, and do not collect
information which is required or
regulated. The information collection,
which was first approved by the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) in
1997, provides the RRB with a generic
clearance authority. This generic
authority allows the RRB to submit a
variety of new or revised customer
survey instruments (needed to timely
implement customer monitoring
activities) to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for expedited review
and approval.
The average burden per response for
customer satisfaction activities is
estimated to range from 2 minutes for a
Web site questionnaire to 2 hours for
participation in a focus group. The RRB
estimates an annual burden of 1,620
annual respondents totaling 731 hours
for the generic customer survey
clearance.

To request more information or to

collection justification, forms, and/or

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE
MKT LLC; Order Approving a
Proposed Rule Change, as Modified by
Amendment No. 1, To Establish
Procedures for the Allocation of Cages
to Co-Located Users, Including the
Waiver of Certain Fees, and To Amend
the Visitor Security Escort Fee
April 21, 2016.
I. Introduction
On February 23, 2016 NYSE MKT
LLC (‘‘the Exchange’’) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’), pursuant to Section
19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (‘‘Act’’) 1 and Rule 19b–4
thereunder,2 a proposed rule change to
establish procedures for the allocation
of cages to co-located Users, including
the waiver of certain fees, and to amend
the visitor security escort fee. On March
1, 2016, the Exchange filed Amendment
No. 1 to the proposed rule change. The
proposed rule change, as modified by
Amendment No. 1, was published for
comment in the Federal Register on
March 11, 2016.3 There were no
comments on the proposed rule change.
This order approves the proposed rule
change, as modified by Amendment No.
1.
II. Background and Description of the
Proposal, as Modified by Amendment
No. 1
The Exchange proposes to establish
procedures for the allocation of cages to
its co-located Users,4 including the
waiver of certain fees subject to
specified conditions, and to amend the
visitor security escort fee.5 The
Exchange proposes to amend the NYSE
MKT Equities Price List (‘‘Price List’’)
and the NYSE Amex Options Fee
1 15
U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
CFR 240.19b–4.
3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34–
77304 (March 7, 2016), 81 FR 12981 (‘‘Notice’’).
Amendment No.1 was included in the Notice and
provided certain clarifications, including that that
the proposed waiver of fees for two bundles of 24
cross connects, applicable while a User is on the
waitlist, would only apply to cross-connects used
to connect an individual User’s non-contiguous
cabinets.
4 For purposes of the Exchange’s co-location
services, a ‘‘User’’ means any market participant
that requests to receive co-location services directly
from the Exchange. The Exchange provides colocation services to Users from its data center
(‘‘Data Center’’) in Mahwah, New Jersey.

Schedule (‘‘Fee Schedule’’) to reflect the
changes.6
As more fully set forth in the Notice,
the Exchange offers Users the ability to
rent cages to house their cabinets in the
Data Center,7 and historically has
offered these cages on a first come/first
serve basis.8 The Exchange states that a
cage typically is purchased by a User
that has several cabinets within the Data
Center and wishes to arrange its
cabinets contiguously while also
enhancing privacy around its cabinets.9
The Exchange offers three cage sizes,
corresponding to the number of cabinets
housed therein, and charges fees for the
cages based on the size.10 The physical
footprint of each cage is greater than
that of the cabinets that it houses, as
each cage is constructed so as to include
aisles around the purchasing User’s
cabinets, for accessibility and to comply
with safety regulations.11 In order to
offer the cages, the Exchange must have
sufficient contiguous open space
available for the cage.12
In 2015, the Exchange determined
that to continue to be able to meet its
obligation to accommodate demand, and
in particular to make available more
contiguous, larger spaces for new and
existing Users, it would exercise its
right to move some Users’ equipment
within the Data Center (the
‘‘Migration’’).13 The Exchange
established procedures to manage the
Migration process, and continues to
implement them.14 The Exchange states
that, notwithstanding the Migration,
contiguous open space will still be
limited, and may become more limited
over time.15
Proposed Cage Allocation Procedure
The Exchange has proposed to
establish procedures governing the
allocation of cages should the currently
available open contiguous space in the
Data Center be insufficient to house a
new cage or if the open contiguous
