RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
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
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Title and purpose of information
collection: Application for Survivor
Death Benefits; OMB 3220–0031.
Under Section 6 of the Railroad
Retirement Act (RRA), lump-sum death
benefits are payable to surviving
widow(er)s, children, and certain other
dependents. Lump-sum death benefits
are payable after the death of a railroad
employee only if there are no qualified
survivors of the employee immediately
eligible for annuities. With the
exception of the residual death benefit,
eligibility for survivor benefits depends
on whether the deceased employee was
‘‘insured’’ under the RRA at the time of
death. If the deceased employee was not
insured, jurisdiction of any survivor
benefits payable is transferred to the
Social Security Administration and
survivor benefits are paid by that agency
instead of the RRB. The requirements
for applying for benefits are prescribed
in 20 CFR 217, 219, and 234.
The collection obtains the information
required by the RRB to determine
entitlement to and amount of the
survivor death benefits applied for. To
collect the information, the RRB uses
Forms AA–21, Application for LumpSum Death Payment and Annuities
Unpaid at Death; AA–21cert,
Application Summary and Certification;
G–131, Authorization of Payment and
Release of All Claims to a Death Benefit
or Accrued Annuity Payment; and G–
273a, Funeral Director’s Statement of
Burial Charges. One response is
requested of each respondent.
Completion is required to obtain
benefits.
The RRB proposes the following
changes to Forms AA–21, AA–21cert,
and G–273a:
• Forms AA–21 and AA–21cert—
Update the fraud language in the
Certification statement to make it
consistent with other RRB applications;
• Form G–273a—Add clarifying
language above Item 10 to inform a
funeral home when to file for a lumpsum death benefit.
The RRB proposes no changes to
Form G–131.

Change

Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed
Rule Change To Relocate the
Exchange’s Options Exercise and
Delivery Rules
November 27, 2018.
Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2
notice is hereby given that on November
14, 2018, Nasdaq BX, Inc. (‘‘BX’’ or
‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule
change as described in Items I and II
below, which Items have been prepared
by the Exchange. The Commission is
publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change
from interested persons.
I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Terms of Substance of
the Proposed Rule Change
The Exchange proposes to relocate the
Exchange’s options exercise and
delivery rules, currently in Chapter VIII
of the Exchange’ rulebook (‘‘Rulebook’’),
to Options 5, Section 100 in the
Rulebook’s shell structure.3
The text of the proposed rule change
is available on the Exchange’s website at
https://nasdaqbx.cchwallstreet.com/, at
the principal office of the Exchange, and
at the Commission’s Public Reference
Room.
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
proposed rule change. The text of these
statements may be examined at the
places specified in Item IV below. The
Exchange has prepared summaries, set
forth in sections A, B, and C below, of
1 15
U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
CFR 240.19b–4.
3 In 2017 the Exchange added a shell structure to
its Rulebook with the purpose of improving
efficiency and readability and to align its rules
closer to those of its five sister exchanges, The
Nasdaq Stock Market LLC; Nasdaq PHLX LLC;
Nasdaq ISE, LLC; Nasdaq GEMX, LLC; and Nasdaq
MRX, LLC (‘‘Affiliated Exchanges’’). See Securities
Exchange Act Release No. 82174 (November 29,
2017), 82 FR 57492 (December 5, 2017) (SR–BX–
2017–054).

1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to relocate the
Exchange’s options exercise and
delivery rules, currently in Chapter VIII
of the Rulebook, to Options 5, Section
100 in the Rulebook’s shell structure.
The relocation of the options exercise
and delivery rules is part of the
Exchange’s continued effort to promote
efficiency and the structural conformity
of its processes with those of its
Affiliated Exchanges.4 The Exchange
believes that the migration of the
options exercise and delivery rules to
their new location will facilitate the use
of the Rulebook by members of the
Exchange who are members of other
Affiliated Exchanges. Moreover, the
proposed changes are of a nonsubstantive nature and will not amend
the relocated rules other than to update
their numbers, redesignate the current
‘‘Supplementary Material’’ as
‘‘Commentary’’, and make conforming
cross-reference changes.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that its
proposal is consistent with Section 6(b)
of the Act,5 in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,6
in particular, in that it is designed to
promote just and equitable principles of
trade, to remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanism of a free and
open market and a national market
system, and, in general to protect
investors and the public interest, by
promoting efficiency and structural
conformity of the Exchange’s processes
with those of the Affiliated Exchanges
and by making the Exchange’s Rulebook
easier to read and more accessible to its
members. The Exchange believes that
the relocation of the options exercise
and delivery rules and the crossreference updates are of a nonsubstantive nature.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that
the proposed rule change will impose
any burden on competition not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. The
proposed changes do not impose a
burden on competition because, as
