Procedure Act (APA).4 It follows that 

the requirements of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act 5 do not apply. 

The effective date for the updated 

Filer Manual and the rule amendments 

is April 20, 2015. In accordance with 

the APA,6 we find that there is good 

cause to establish an effective date less 

than 30 days after publication of these 

rules. The EDGAR system upgrade to 

Release 15.1 is scheduled to become 

available on April 13, 2015. The 

Commission believes that establishing 

an effective date less than 30 days after 

publication of these rules is necessary to 

coordinate the effectiveness of the 

updated Filer Manual with the system 

upgrade. 

Statutory Basis

§ 232.301 EDGAR Filer Manual. 

Filers must prepare electronic filings 

in the manner prescribed by the EDGAR 

Filer Manual, promulgated by the 

Commission, which sets out the 

technical formatting requirements for 

electronic submissions. The

forth in the updated EDGAR Filer 

Manual, Volume I: ‘‘General 

Information,’’ Version 20 (April 2015). 

The requirements for filing on EDGAR 

are set forth in the updated EDGAR Filer

provisions applicable to Form N–SAR

Manual, Volume III: ‘‘N–SAR 

Supplement,’’ Version 4 (October 2014). 

All of these provisions have been 

incorporated by reference into the Code 

of Federal Regulations, which action 

was approved by the Director of the 

Federal Register in accordance with 5 

U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. You 

must comply with these requirements in 

order for documents to be timely 

received and accepted. The EDGAR
