COMMISSION 

[Release No. 34–83356; File No. SR–NYSE– 

2018–25] 

Self-Regulatory Organizations; New 

York Stock Exchange LLC; Notice of 

Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of 

Proposed Rule Change To Amend Rule 

7.37 and Rule 17 With Respect to NYSE 

National’s Reopening of Trading and 

Reactivating Connection to the 

Securities Information Processors 

May 31, 2018. 

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) 1 of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 

‘‘Act’’) 2 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,3

notice is hereby given that on May 18, 

2018, New York Stock Exchange LLC 

(‘‘NYSE’’ or the ‘‘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 self-regulatory 

organization. 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 the Substance 

of the Proposed Rule Change 

The Exchange proposes to: (1) Amend 

Rule 7.37 to specify in Exchange rules 

the Exchange’s use of data feeds from 

NYSE National, Inc. (‘‘NYSE National’’) 

for order handling and execution, order 

routing, and regulatory compliance; and 

(2) amend Rule 17 to reflect that 

Archipelago Securities LLC (‘‘Arca 

Securities’’) would function as a routing 

broker for the Exchange’s affiliate, NYSE 

National. The proposed rule change is 

available on the Exchange’s website at 

www.nyse.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 

self-regulatory organization 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 those 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 the most significant parts of such 

statements. 

A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

1. Purpose 

The Exchange proposes to update and 

amend the table in Rule 7.37 that sets 

forth on a market-by-market basis the 

specific network processor and 

proprietary data feeds that the Exchange 

utilizes for the handling, execution and 

routing of orders, and for performing the 

regulatory compliance checks related to 

each of those functions. Specifically, the 

table would be amended to include 

NYSE National, which intends to 

reopen trading and reactivate its 

connections to the securities 

information processors (‘‘SIPs’’). To 

reflect that, the Exchange proposes to 

amend Rule 7.37 to specify which data 

feeds the Exchange would use for NYSE 

National. As proposed, the Exchange 

would use the direct data feeds for 

NYSE National and would use the SIP 

data feeds as a secondary source. 

Additionally, the Exchange proposes 

to amend Rule 17 to reflect that Arca 

Securities would function as a routing 

broker for the Exchange’s affiliate, NYSE 

National. Specifically, the Exchange 

proposes to amend Rule 17(c)(2)(A) and 

(B) to reference NYSE National as an 

affiliate of the Exchange for the 

purposes of the inbound routing 

function performed by Arca Securities. 

The proposed rule change would 

provide more clarity and transparency 

to all the functions that Arca Securities 

performs on behalf of the Exchange and 

its affiliates, which now includes NYSE

6 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). 

7 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). As required under Rule 

19b–4(f)(6)(iii), the Exchange provided the 

Commission with written notice of its intent to file 

the proposed rule change, along with a brief 

description and the text of the proposed rule 

change, at least five business days prior to the date 

of filing of the proposed rule change, or such 

shorter time as designated by the Commission.

9 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii). 

10For purposes only of waiving the 30-day 

operative delay, the Commission has also 

considered the proposed rule’s impact on 

efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 

15 U.S.C. 78c(f). 

National. The Exchange is not proposing 

any substantive change to the rule. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The proposed rule change is 

consistent with Section 6(b) of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 

‘‘Act’’),4 in general, and furthers the 

objectives of Section 6(b)(5),5 in 

particular, because it is designed to 

prevent fraudulent and manipulative 

acts and practices, to promote just and 

equitable principles of trade, to foster 

cooperation and coordination with 

persons engaged in facilitating 

transactions in securities, 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. The Exchange believes 

its proposal to update the table in Rule 

7.37 to include NYSE National will 

ensure that Rule 7.37 correctly identifies 

and publicly states on a market-bymarket basis all of the specific network 

processor and proprietary data feeds 

that the Exchange utilizes for the 

handling, execution and routing of 

orders, and for performing the 

regulatory compliance checks to each of 

those functions. The proposed rule 

change also removes impediments to 

and perfects the mechanism of a free 

and open market and protects investors 

and the public interest because it 

provides additional specificity, clarity 

and transparency. The Exchange 

believes the proposed rule change to 

amend Rule 17 also removes 

impediments to and perfects the 

mechanism of a free and open market 

and protects investors and the public 

interest because the proposed rule 

change would enhance the clarity and 

transparency in Exchange Rules 

surrounding the inbound routing 

function performed by Arca Securities 

for the Exchange’s affiliate, NYSE 

National. 

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 that is not 

necessary or appropriate in furtherance 

of the purposes of the Act. The 

proposed change is not designed to 

address any competitive issue but rather 

would provide the public and investors 

with information about which data 

feeds the Exchange uses for execution 

and routing decisions, and provide 

clarity in Exchange rules that Arca 

Securities would perform the inbound 

routing function on behalf on the 

Exchange’s affiliate, NYSE National. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

No written comments were solicited 

or received with respect to the proposed 

rule change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the proposed rule change 

does not (i) significantly affect the 

protection of investors or the public 

interest; (ii) impose any significant 

burden on competition; and (iii) become 

operative for 30 days from the date on 

which it was filed, or such shorter time 

as the Commission may designate, it has 

become effective pursuant to Section 

19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 6 and Rule 19b– 

4(f)(6) thereunder.7

A proposed rule change filed 

pursuant to Rule 19b–4(f)(6) under the 

Act 8 normally does not become 

operative for 30 days after the date of its 

filing. However, Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) 9

permits the Commission to designate a 

shorter time if such action is consistent 

with the protection of investors and the 

public interest. The Exchange has asked 

the Commission to waive the 30-day 

operative delay so that the proposed 

rule change may become operative upon 

filing. The Exchange states that waiver 

of the operative delay would be 

consistent with the protection of 

investors and the public interest 

because it will allow the Exchange to 

immediately provide enhanced 

transparency in Exchange rules 

regarding which data feeds the 

Exchange will use for NYSE National 

and clarify in the Exchange’s rules that 

Arca Securities will perform the 

inbound routing function for NYSE 

National. The Commission believes that 

waiving the 30-day operative delay is 

consistent with the protection of 

investors and the public interest. 

Therefore, the Commission hereby 

waives the operative delay and 

designates the proposal as operative 

upon filing.10

At any time within 60 days of the 

filing of the proposed rule change, the 

Commission summarily may 

temporarily suspend such rule change if 

it appears to the Commission that such 

action is necessary or appropriate in the 

public interest, for the protection of 

investors, or otherwise in furtherance of 

the purposes of the Act. If the 

Commission takes such action, the 

Commission shall institute proceedings 

to determine whether the proposed rule 

should be approved or disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments 

Interested persons are invited to 

submit written data, views, and 

arguments concerning the foregoing, 

including whether the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the Act. 

Comments may be submitted by any of 

the following methods:

1NOPB Corp. states that, because the duration of 

the extended trackage rights is greater than one 

year, it is not filing under the Board’s class 

exemption for temporary trackage rights under 49 

CFR 1180.2(d)(8). Instead, NOPB Corp. has filed 

under the trackage rights class exemption at section 

1180.2(d)(7). Concurrently, NOPB Corp. has filed a 

petition for partial revocation of this exemption to 

permit these proposed trackage rights to expire on 

January 31, 2020, as provided in the agreement. See

SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD 

[Docket No. FD 36198] 

New Orleans Public Belt Railroad 

Corporation—Trackage Rights 

Exemption—Illinois Central Railroad 

Company 

New Orleans Public Belt Railroad 

Corporation (NOPB Corp.), a Class III 

rail carrier, has filed a verified notice of 

exemption under 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(7) 

for its extension of temporary overhead 

trackage rights on rail lines of Illinois 

Central Railroad Company (IC) in New 

Orleans, La., from IC milepost 906.4 at 

East Bridge Junction in Shrewsbury to 

IC milepost 900.8 at Orleans Junction in 

New Orleans and from IC milepost 

444.2 at Orleans Junction to IC milepost 

443.5 at Frellsen Junction in New 

Orleans, a total distance of 

approximately 6.3 miles (the Line). 

NOPB Corp. states that it is a 

switching and terminal railroad and a 

wholly owned subsidiary of the Board 

of Commissioners of the Port of New 

Orleans that provides terminal, 

interline, and intermediate switching 

services to local shippers and six Class 

I railroads in the New Orleans area. 

NOPB Corp. further states that it began 

operations on February 1, 2018, upon 

acquisition of all the railroad operating 

assets of the Public Belt Railroad 

Commission of the City of New Orleans 

(Public Belt). See New Orleans Pub. Belt 

R.R.—Acquis. & Operation Exemption— 

Pub. Belt R.R. Comm’n of New Orleans 

(NOPB Corp. Acquisition), FD 36149 

(STB served Dec. 27, 2017). 

According to NOPB Corp., pursuant to 

a September 16, 2016 temporary 

trackage rights agreement and 

subsequent amendment dated December 

28, 2016, between Public Belt and IC, 

Public Belt previously obtained 

temporary overhead trackage rights on 

the Line to interchange traffic with 

Kansas City Southern Railway Company 

(KCS) on KCS trackage in New Orleans 

on a trial basis. See New Orleans Pub. 

Belt R.R.—Temp. Trackage Rights 

Exemption—Ill. Cent. R.R., FD 36067 

(STB served Oct. 14, 2016); New Orleans 

Pub. Belt R.R.—Temp. Trackage Rights 

Exemption—Ill. Cent. R.R., FD 36067 

(STB served Jan. 30, 2017). NOPB Corp. 

states that, as initially extended, the 

temporary trackage rights were 

scheduled to expire on January 31, 

2018. NOPB Corp. further states that it 

was assigned Public Belt’s interest in 

the temporary trackage rights 

arrangement as part of the transaction 

authorized in the NOPB Corp. 

Acquisition, Docket No. FD 36149. 

According to NOPB Corp., pursuant to 

a second amendment to the temporary 

trackage rights agreement, dated January 

31, 2018, the parties have agreed to a 

further extension of the temporary 

overhead trackage rights until January 

31, 2020.1 NOPB Corp. states that the 

purpose of the transaction is to allow it 

to interchange traffic with KCS on KCS 

trackage, which requires NOPB Corp. to 

operate over IC trackage for 

approximately 6.3 miles. 

NOPB Corp. states that the traffic 

subject to the trackage rights does not 

involve an interchange commitment that 

limits interchange with a third-party 

connecting carrier. (See NOPB Corp. 

Letter 1.) 

Unless stayed, the exemption will be 

effective on June 20, 2018 (30 days after 

the verified notice was filed).2
