workplace. Consequently, if a test 

standard also covers any products for 

which OSHA does not require such 

testing and certification, a NRTL’s scope 

of recognition does not include these 

products. 

The American National Standards 

Institute (ANSI) may approve the test 

standards listed above as American 

National Standards. However, for 

convenience, the designation of the 

standards-developing organization for 

the standard as opposed to the ANSI 

designation may be used. Under the 

NRTL Program’s policy (see OSHA 

Instruction CPL 1–0.3, Appendix C, 

paragraph XIV), any NRTL recognized 

for a particular test standard may use 

either the proprietary version of the test 

standard or the ANSI version of that 

standard. Contact ANSI to determine 

whether a test standard is currently 

ANSI-approved. 

A. Conditions 

In addition to those conditions 

already required by 29 CFR 1910.7, ARL 

must abide by the following conditions 

of the recognition: 

1. ARL must inform OSHA as soon as 

possible, in writing, of any change of 

ownership, facilities, or key personnel, 

and of any major change in the 

operations as a NRTL, and provide 

details of the change(s); 

2. ARL must meet all the terms of the 

recognition and comply with all OSHA 

policies pertaining to this recognition; 

and 

3. ARL must continue to meet the 

requirements for recognition, including 

all previously published conditions on 

ARL’s scope of recognition, in all areas 

for which it has recognition. 

Pursuant to the authority in 29 CFR 

1910.7, OSHA hereby expands the scope 

of recognition of ARL, subject to the 

conditions specified above.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Summary 

Food is a critical component of 

human space exploration missions. 

When humans return to the lunar 

surface, the early missions are expected 

to use prepackaged foods similar to 

those in use on the International Space 

Station (ISS) today, but extending the 

duration of lunar missions requires 

reducing resupply dependency on 

Earth. Thus, testing a sustainable system 

on the Moon that meets lunar crews’ 

needs is a fundamental step for both 

lunar sustainability and will also 

support Mars exploration. As part of 

this, space agencies are focused on how 

to furnish crew members with a viable 

system that produces food for all long 

duration space missions. The food 

system will need to be an integrated 

solution that: 

• Provides all daily nutritional needs 

• Provides a variety of palatable and 

safe food choices 

• Enables acceptable, safe, and quick 

preparation methods 

• Limits resource requirements with no 

dependency on direct periodic 

resupply from Earth over durations 

increasing from months to years 

In short, space agencies will need to 

provide their future crew members with 

nutritious foods they will enjoy eating 

within all of the constraints of current 

technology for life away from Earth. 

They must also ensure that the process 

to create, grow, and/or prepare the food 

is not time consuming and not 

unpleasant. Although there are many 

food systems on Earth that may offer 

benefits to space travelers, the ability of 

these systems to meet spaceflight 

demands has not yet been established. 

Additionally, food insecurity is a 

significant chronic problem on Earth in 

urban, rural and harsh environments 

and communities. In places like the 

Arctic and Canada’s North, the cost of 

providing fresh produce on the shelves 

can be incredibly high. This can also 

support greater food production in other 

milder environments, including major 

urban centers where vertical farming, 

urban agriculture and other novel food 

production techniques can play a more 

significant role.

5Section 1.1 of the CAT NMS Plan defines an 

‘‘Allocation Report’’ as ‘‘a report made to the 

Central Repository by an Industry Member that 

identifies the Firm Designated ID for any account(s), 

including subaccount(s), to which executed shares 

are allocated and provides the security that has 

been allocated, the identifier of the firm reporting 

the allocation, the price per share of shares 

allocated, the side of shares allocated, the number 

of shares allocated to each account, and the time of 

the allocation; provided for the avoidance of doubt, 

any such Allocation Report shall not be required to 

be linked to particular orders or executions.’’ 

6See letter from the Participants to Vanessa 

Countryman, Secretary, Commission, dated August 

27, 2020 (the ‘‘Exemption Request’’). 

Disasters can also disrupt supply 

chains, on which all people depend, 

and further aggravate food shortages. 

Developing compact and innovative 

advanced food system solutions can 

further enhance local production and 

reduce food supply chain challenges, 

providing new solutions for 

humanitarian responses to floods and 

droughts, and new technologies for 

rapid deployment following disasters. 

The Deep Space Food Challenge will 

identify technology solutions that can: 

• Help fill food gaps for a three-year 

round-trip mission with no resupply 

• Feed a crew of four (4) 

• Improve the accessibility of food on 

Earth, in particular, via production 

directly in urban centers and in 

remote and harsh environments 

• Achieve the greatest amount of food 

output with minimal inputs and 

minimal waste 

• Create a variety of palatable, 

nutritious, and safe foods that 

requires little processing time for 

crew members 

This Challenge seeks to incentivize 

Teams to develop novel technologies, 

systems and/or approaches for food 

production that need not meet the full 

nutritional requirements of future 

crews, but can contribute significantly 

to and be integrated into a 

comprehensive food system. 

I. Prize Amounts 

Up to 20 top scoring U.S. Teams that 

achieve a score in five or more of the 

scoring categories will receive $25,000 

USD each from NASA and be invited to 

compete in Phase 2 (should Phase 2 

open for competition). Teams must meet 

the eligibility requirements for the 

NASA Prize in order to be eligible to 

receive a prize from NASA. 

II. Eligibility To Participate and Win 

Prize Money 

To be eligible to win a prize, 

competitors must register and comply 

with all requirements in the Official 

Rules. Interested Teams should refer to 

the official Challenge website

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[Release No. 34–90887; File No. SR–FINRA– 

2021–001] 

Self-Regulatory Organizations; 

Financial Industry Regulatory 

Authority, Inc.; Notice of Filing and 

Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed 

Rule Change To Amend the FINRA 

Rule 6800 Series (Consolidated Audit 

Trail Compliance Rule) Relating to 

Allocation Reporting Requirements 

January 11, 2021. 

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 January 4, 

2021, the Financial Industry Regulatory 

Authority, Inc. (‘‘FINRA’’) filed with the 

Securities and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘SEC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) the proposed 

rule change as described in Items I, II, 

and III below, which Items have been 

prepared by FINRA. 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 

FINRA is proposing to amend the 

FINRA Rule 6800 Series, FINRA’s 

compliance rule (‘‘Compliance Rule’’) 

regarding the National Market System 

Plan Governing the Consolidated Audit 

Trail (the ‘‘CAT NMS Plan’’ or ‘‘Plan’’) 3

to be consistent with a conditional 

exemption granted by the Commission 

from certain allocation reporting 

requirements set forth in Sections 

6.4(d)(ii)(A)(1) and (2) of the CAT NMS 

Plan (‘‘Allocation Exemption’’).4

The text of the proposed rule change 

is available on FINRA’s website at 

http://www.finra.org, at the principal 

office of FINRA 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, 

FINRA 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. FINRA has prepared 

summaries, set forth in sections A, B, 

and C below, of the most significant 

aspects of such statements. 

A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

1. Purpose 

The purpose of this proposed rule 

change is to amend the Rule 6800 Series 

to be consistent with the Allocation 

Exemption. The Commission granted 

the relief conditioned upon the 

Participants’ adoption of Compliance 

Rules that implement the alternative 

approach to reporting allocations to the 

Central Repository described in the 

Allocation Exemption (referred to as the 

‘‘Allocation Alternative’’). 

(1) Request for Exemptive Relief 

Pursuant to Section 6.4(d)(ii)(A) of the 

CAT NMS Plan, each Participant must, 

through its Compliance Rule, require its 

Industry Members to record and report 

to the Central Repository, if the order is 

executed, in whole or in part: (1) An 

Allocation Report; 5 (2) the SROAssigned Market Participant Identifier 

of the clearing broker or prime broker, 

if applicable; and the (3) CAT-Order-ID 

of any contra-side order(s). Accordingly, 

FINRA and the other Participants 

implemented Compliance Rules that 

require their Industry Members that are 

executing brokers to submit to the 

Central Repository, among other things, 

Allocation Reports and the SROAssigned Market Participant Identifier 

of the clearing broker or prime broker, 

if applicable. 

On August 27, 2020, the Participants 

submitted to the Commission a request 

for an exemption from certain allocation 

reporting requirements set forth in 

Sections 6.4(d)(ii)(A)(1) and (2) of the 

CAT NMS Plan (‘‘Exemption 

Request’’).6 In the Exemption Request, 

the Participants requested that they be 

permitted to implement the Allocation 

Alternative, which, as noted above, is an
