Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 226 / Wednesday, November 23, 2016 / Notices
implementation period of the proposal
from one year to 18 months.
The Commission finds that requiring
members to include a reference or
hyperlink to a security-specific TRACE
Web page and include the time of trade
on all retail customer confirmations is
responsive to commenters’ requests for
harmonization of the FINRA Proposal
and MSRB Proposal and therefore
helped the Commission find that the
proposed rule change, as modified by
Amendment No. 1, is consistent with
Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act,244 which
requires, among other things, that
FINRA’s rules be designed to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, and, in general, to
protect investors and the public interest,
and Section 15A(b)(9) of the Act,245
which requires, among other things, that
FINRA’s rules do not impose any
burden on competition not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the
purposes of the Act. The Commission
notes that the addition of the term
‘‘offsetting’’ to the rule is solely a
clarification for the avoidance of doubt
and that the change does not alter the
substance of the rule. Furthermore,
extension of the implementation period
of the proposal from one year to 18
months is appropriate and responsive to
the operational and implementation
concerns raised by commenters. The
Commission also notes that after
consideration of the comments the
MSRB received on its proposal to
require a security-specific hyperlink to
EMMA and the execution time of the
transaction, the MSRB amended its
proposal in a manner that is identical to
the Amendment No. 1 that FINRA has
filed.246 The Commission notes that it
today has approved the MSRB Proposal,
as modified by MSRB Amendment No.
1, and believes that in the interests of
promoting efficiency in the
implementation of both proposals, it is
appropriate to approve FINRA’s
proposal, as modified by Amendment
No. 1, concurrently. Accordingly, the
Commission finds good cause, pursuant
to Section 19(b)(2) of the Exchange
Act,247 to approve the proposed rule
change, as modified by Amendment No.
1, on an accelerated basis.

[Docket No. FD 36069]
Kokomo Rail, LLC—Acquisition and
Operation Exemption—Rail Line of
Kokomo Rail Co., Inc.
Kokomo Rail, LLC (KR), a noncarrier,
has filed a verified notice of exemption 1
under 49 C.F.R 1150.31 to acquire, from
Kokomo Rail Co., Inc. (KRC),2 and to
operate, approximately 12.55 miles of
rail line between milepost 134.48 at or
near Marion and milepost 147.07 at or
near Amboy, in Howard and Grant
Counties, Ind. (the Line).
According to KR, KRC acquired the
12.55-mile line from CSX
Transportation, Inc.3 KR states that KRC
was voluntarily dissolved as a
corporation, and that dissolution makes
it necessary to transfer KRC’s authority
to own and operate the Line from KRC
to KR.
KR states that the proposed
transaction does not involve any
interchange commitments. KR certifies
that its projected annual revenues as a
result of this transaction will not result
in the creation of a Class I or Class II rail
carrier and that its projected annual
revenues do not exceed $5 million.
The transaction may be consummated
on or after December 7, 2016, the
effective date of the exemption (30 days
after the verified notice was filed).
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the
exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d)
may be filed at any time. The filing of
a petition to revoke will not
automatically stay the effectiveness of
249 17
CFR 200.30–3(a)(12).
verified notice was originally filed on
October 27, 2016. On November 7, 2016, KR filed
supplemental information, including the relevant
mileposts, and noted that KRC was dissolved in
1999. Therefore, November 7, 2016, is the official
filing date.
2 KR is an affiliate of Kokomo Grain Co., Inc., as
was KRC.

Aviation Boulevard, Lawndale,
California 90261. Telephone: 310/725–

action may be reviewed at this same
location.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice announces that the FAA has
given its overall approval to the noise
compatibility program for Bob Hope
Airport, effective October 24, 2016.
Under section 47504 of the Act, an
airport operator who has previously
submitted a noise exposure map may
submit to the FAA a noise compatibility
program which sets forth the measures
taken or proposed by the airport
operator for the reduction of existing
non-compatible land uses and
prevention of additional non-compatible
land uses within the area covered by the
noise exposure maps. The Act requires
such programs to be developed in
consultation with interested and
affected parties including local
communities, government agencies,
airport users, and FAA personnel.
Each airport noise compatibility
program developed in accordance with
Part 150 is a local program, not a
Federal program. The FAA does not
substitute its judgment for that of the
airport proprietor with respect to which
measures should be recommended for
action. The FAA’s approval or
disapproval of Part 150 program
recommendations is measured
according to the standards expressed in
Part 150 and the Act and is limited to
the following determinations:
a. The noise compatibility program
was developed in accordance with the
provisions and procedures of Part 150;
PO 00000
Frm 00128
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
b. Program measures are reasonably
consistent with achieving the goals of
reducing existing non-compatible land
uses around the airport and preventing
the introduction of additional noncompatible land uses;
c. Program measures would not create
an undue burden on interstate or foreign
commerce, unjustly discriminate against
types or classes of aeronautical uses,
violate the terms of airport grant
agreements, or intrude into areas
preempted by the Federal Government;
and
d. Program measures relating to the
use of flight procedures can be
implemented within the period covered
by the program without derogating
safety, adversely affecting the efficient
use and management of the navigable
airspace and air traffic control systems,
or adversely affecting other powers and
responsibilities of the Administrator
prescribed by law.
Specific limitations with respect to
FAA’s approval of an airport noise
compatibility program are delineated in
Part 150, section 150.5. Approval is not
a determination concerning the
acceptability of land uses under Federal,
state, or local law. Approval does not by
itself constitute an FAA implementing
action. A request for Federal action or
approval to implement specific noise
compatibility measures may be
required. Prior to an FAA decision on a
request to implement the action, an
environmental review of the proposed
action may be required. Approval does
not constitute a commitment by the
FAA to financially assist in the
implementation of the program nor a
determination that all measures covered
by the program are eligible for grant-inaid funding from the FAA. Where
federal funding is sought, requests for
project grants must be submitted to the
FAA Los Angeles Airports District
Office in the Western-Pacific Region.
Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport
Authority submitted to the FAA on June
27, 2013 the noise exposure maps,
descriptions and other documentation
produced during the noise compatibility
planning study conducted from
September 13, 2011 through October 24,
2016. The Bob Hope Airport noise
exposure maps were determined by
FAA to be in compliance with
applicable requirements on October 10,
2013. Notice of this determination was
published in the Federal Register (78
FR 64048) on October 25, 2013.
The Bob Hope Airport study contains
a proposed noise compatibility program
comprised of actions designed for
phased implementation by airport
management and adjacent jurisdictions
from December 30, 2014 to the year

Central of Georgia Railroad Company--Abandonment Exemption--in
Newton County, Ga.
AGENCY: Surface Transportation Board.
ACTION: Correction to notice of exemption.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
On July 1, 2013, Central of Georgia Railroad Company (CGA) \1\
filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR pt. 1152 subpart F--
Exempt Abandonments to abandon approximately 14.90 miles of rail line
between milepost E 65.80 and milepost E 80.70, in Newton County, Ga.
The notice was served and published in the Federal Register on July 19,
2013 (78 FR 43,273).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ CGA is a wholly owned subsidiary of Norfolk Southern Railway
Company.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before the exemption became effective, Newton County Trail-Path
Foundation, Inc. (Newton Trail) filed a request for a notice of interim
trail use (NITU). The Board issued a NITU on August 19, 2013, and on
September 28, 2016, CGA and Newton Trail filed a notice informing the
Board that they had entered into a lease agreement for interim trail
use and rail banking for the 14.90 miles of rail line that was subject
