10. Abstract: As set forth under 29 

CFR 1614, the Equal Employment 

Opportunity (EEO) complaint process 

prescribes that when an aggrieved 

individual believes that they have been 

discriminated against on the basis of 

their race, color, religion, sex (including 

sexual orientation, gender identity and 

expressions, and pregnancy), national 

origin, age, disability, genetic 

information (including family medical 

history), marital status, parental status, 

political affiliation, military service, and 

reprisal and seeks EEO counseling, the 

assigned EEO Counselor will conduct 

the pre-complaint (Informal) with the 

intentions of resolving the complaint 

within the Agency. At the conclusion of 

the pre-complaint (Informal) process 

and if the resolution was unsuccessful, 

the EEO Counselor during the final 

interview with the aggrieved person 

must discuss what occurred during the 

counseling process and provide the 

aggrieved with information to move the 

matter forward. Pursuant to 29 CFR 

1614.105(c), if the aggrieved individual 

decides to file a Formal complaint (i.e., 

NRC Form 646), the EEO Counselor 

must submit a written report (i.e., EEO 

Counselors Report) within 15 calendar 

days to the Office of Small Business and 

Civil Rights Director or designated 

official that will contain relevant 

information about the aggrieved 

individual, jurisdiction, claims, bases, 

Responding Management Officials, 

witnesses, requested remedies, and the 

EEO Counselor’s checklist. Once 

received by the NRC, an authorized NRC 

representative will place the completed 

NRC Form 646 in a secure folder created 

specifically for the aggrieved individual 

within an automated tracking system. 

III. Specific Requests for Comments 

The NRC is seeking comments that 

address the following questions:

information necessary for the NRC to 

properly perform its functions? Does the

2. Is the estimate of the burden of the 

information collection accurate? 

3. Is there a way to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected? 

4. How can the burden of the 

information collection on respondents 

be minimized, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology?

Corporation 

February 7, 2022. 

On July 22, 2021, The Depository 

Trust Company (‘‘DTC’’) filed with the 

Securities and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) proposed rule change 

SR–DTC–2021–014 (‘‘Proposed Rule 

Change’’) pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of 

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 

(‘‘Act’’) 1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder.2

The Proposed Rule Change was 

published for comment in the Federal 

Register on August 11, 2021.3 The 

Commission received no comment 

letters on the Proposed Rule Change. 

On September 2, 2021, pursuant to 

Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,4 the 

Commission designated a longer period 

within which to approve, disapprove, or 

institute proceedings to determine 

whether to approve or disapprove the 

Proposed Rule Change.5 On November 

5, 2021, the Commission instituted 

proceedings pursuant to Section 

19(b)(2)(B) of the Act,6 to determine 

whether to approve or disapprove the 

Proposed Rule Change.7

Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 8 provides 

that proceedings to determine whether 

to approve or disapprove a proposed 

rule change must be concluded within 

180 days of the date of publication of 

notice of filing of the proposed rule 

change. The time for conclusion of the 

proceedings may be extended for up to 

60 days if the Commission determines 

that a longer period is appropriate and 

publishes the reasons for such 

determination.9 The 180th day after 

publication of the Notice in the Federal 

Register is February 7, 2022. 

The Commission is extending the 

period for Commission action on the 

Proposed Rule Change. The Commission 

finds that it is appropriate to designate 

a longer period within which to take 

action on the Proposed Rule Change so 

that the Commission has sufficient time 

to consider the issues raised by the 

Proposed Rule Change and to take 

action on the Proposed Rule Change. 

Accordingly, pursuant to Section 

19(b)(2)(B)(ii)(II) of the Act,10 the 

Commission designates April 8, 2022, as 

the date by which the Commission 

should either approve or disapprove the 

Proposed Rule Change SR–DTC–2021– 

014. 

For the Commission, by the Division of 

Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated 

authority.11
