the Exchange’s regulatory level of effort
that is expected to be attributable to the
regulation of orders that execute on the
Exchange; (c) the anticipated percentage
of ORF revenue that is expected to be
derived from away-market transactions
compared to the anticipated percentage
of ORF revenue that is expected to be
derived from executions on the
Exchange; and (d) more detail on the
regulatory activities the exchange
expects to perform for trades that do not
occur on the Exchange.
4. Information on the Exchange’s
Regulatory Program Concerning
Clearing Brokers. The Exchange states
that ORF is collected on ‘‘customer
range’’ options transactions cleared or
ultimately cleared by an Exchange
member regardless of the exchange on
which the transaction occurs.54 The
Exchange also will collect ORF from a
non-Member clearing broker where a
member was the executing firm and a
non-Member was the ultimate clearing
firm. Do commenters believe that the
Exchange has provided sufficiently
detailed quantitative and qualitative
evidence in support of this aspect of its
proposal? Specifically, examples of
information that would be helpful to
provide context for the collection of
ORF from member and non-member
clearing brokers and determine whether
a sufficient nexus exists between the
ORF and the Exchange’s regulation of
clearing activity, include: (a) the
percentage of the Exchange’s regulatory
expenses and level of regulatory activity
that is expected to pertain to clearance
and settlement activity and the
percentage this is expected to account
for with respect to the Exchange’s
overall regulatory costs and regulatory
activity, and if that differs depending on
whether the ultimate clearing firm is an
Exchange member or not and whether
the contract executes on the Exchange
or not; (b) the number of ‘‘ultimate
clearing firms’’ that are Exchange
members compared to the number of
‘‘ultimate clearing firms’’ that are nonMembers from which ORF is expected
to be collected on behalf of the
Exchange; and (c) the percentage of ORF
revenues that is expected to be collected
from Member clearing firms compared
to the percentage of ORF revenue that is
expected to be collected from nonMember clearing firms.
The Commission is instituting
proceedings to allow for additional
consideration and comment on the
issues raised herein, including as to
whether the proposed fees are
consistent with the Act, and
specifically, with the requirements that

oral presentation.56

Reallocation of Unused Fiscal Year
2024 WTO Tariff-Rate Quota Volume
for Raw Cane Sugar
Office of the United States
Trade Representative.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Office of the United
States Trade Representative (USTR) is
providing notice of country-by-country
reallocations of the fiscal year (FY) 2024
in-quota quantity of the World Trade
Organization (WTO) tariff-rate quota
(TRQ) for imported raw cane sugar.
DATES: This notice is applicable on
November 30, 2023.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Erin
Nicholson, Office of Agricultural
Affairs, at 202–395–9419 or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to Additional U.S. Note 5 to Chapter 17
of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
the United States (HTSUS), the United
States maintains WTO TRQs for imports
of raw cane and refined sugar. Section
404(d)(3) of the Uruguay Round
Agreements Act (19 U.S.C. 3601(d)(3))
authorizes the President to allocate the
in-quota quantity of a TRQ for any
agricultural product among supplying
countries or customs areas. The
President delegated this authority to the
U.S. Trade Representative under
Presidential Proclamation 6763 (60 FR
1007).
On July 5, 2023, U.S. Department of
Agriculture established the FY2024 TRQ
for imported raw cane sugar at the
minimum quantity to which the United
States is committed pursuant to the
WTO Uruguay Round Agreements
(1,117,195 metric tons raw value
(MTRV) conversion factor: 1 metric ton
= 1.10231125 short tons). On July 19,
2023, USTR provided notice of countryby-country allocations of the FY2024 inquota quantity of the WTO TRQ for
imported raw cane sugar. See 88 FR
46363. Based on consultation with
quota holders, the U.S. Trade
Representative has determined to
reallocate 223,740 MTRV of the original
TRQ quantity from those countries that
