processed primarily for its source 

material content, including discrete 

surface wastes resulting from uranium 

solution extraction processes.’’ These 

definitions were added to 10 CFR Part 

40 in a 1979 final rulemaking that the 

ISR industry paper does not discuss. 

The NRC’s regulations in 10 CFR Part 

50 (Domestic Licensing of Production 

and Utilization Facilities) include an 

LWA process that allows the NRC to 

approve the conduct of certain 

construction activities in advance of the 

issuance of a construction permit or 

combined license. However, there are 

no similar provisions in 10 CFR Part 40 

for the use of LWAs in the licensing of 

uranium recovery facilities. Therefore, if 

an applicant wishes to perform prelicensing construction activities apart 

from those permitted under 10 CFR 

40.32(e), an exemption request must be 

submitted for the staff’s review. The 

exemption request must specify the 

particular activity, the purpose and 

need for the activity, the duration of the 

activity, and the potential impacts to 

human health and the environment. The 

request should include drawings that 

provide construction details and the 

location of the proposed activity. 

Depending on the specific activities 

included in the exemption request, the 

staff’s review may include an 

environmental assessment pursuant to 

the requirements of 10 CFR Part 51 

(Environmental Protection Regulations 

for Domestic Licensing and Related 

Regulatory Functions), consistent with 

the guidance in NUREG–1748 

(Environmental Review Guidance for 

Licensing Actions Associated with 

NMSS Programs). Exemption requests 

will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis 

and the granting of any exemptions does 

not ensure subsequent approval of a 

license. As such, any construction 

activities performed by the applicant 

under an exemption and prior to the 

issuance of a license are performed at 

the applicant’s risk. 

Voluntary Response Requested 

All addressees and the public are 

requested to voluntarily submit 

comments regarding the pre-licensing 

policy presented in this RIS. To be of 

use to the NRC, responses should be 

submitted within 30 days of the date of 

this summary.

4PRL orders are for a size within the standard 

unit (round-lot) of trading, which is 100 shares for 

most stocks, but contains a portion that is smaller 

than the standard unit of trading, e.g. 199 shares. 

It should be noted that for certain securities trading 

on the NYSE the standard unit of trading is 10 

shares. 

5See SR–NYSEALTR–2009–27 (to be filed March 

11, 2009). 

6See NYSE Rule 124(a). 

7 Id. Odd-lot orders are in effect netted against 

one another and executed; however, since the DMM 

is buying the same amount that he or she is selling, 

there is no economic consequence to the DMM in 

this type of pairing-off of orders. Any imbalance of 

buy or sell odd-lot market orders are executed 

against the DMM, up to the size of the round-lot 

transaction or the BID/OFFER size whichever is 

less. 

8The volume limitation in section (c) of the rule 

is defined as the lesser of either the number of 

shares in the last round-lot transaction or the 

number of shares available at the national best bid 

(in the case of an odd-lot order to sell), or the 

national best offer (in the case of an odd-lot order 

to buy). 

9Pursuant to NYSE Rule 124(d) odd-lot limit 

orders that are non-marketable upon receipt that 

become marketable are eligible to be netted and 

executed at the price of the next round-lot 

transaction. If odd-lot limit orders do not receive an 

execution pursuant to the netting provision, then 

the orders are eligible to be executed, at its limit 

price, subject to the volume limitation of section (c) 

of the rule. 

10As with marketable odd-lot orders, nonmarketable odd-lot limit orders which would 

otherwise receive a partial execution will be 

executed in full. Non-marketable odd-lot limit 

orders that become marketable, that remain 

unexecuted within 30 seconds of receipt will be 

executed, in time priority of receipt, except that the 

orders will be executed at its limit price. 

Reporting Hours: 5 hours per project. 

Number of Responses: 300 per year. 

Federal Cost: $66,000 per year. 

Authority for Information Collection: 

Sections 231, 234 (b), and (c) of the 

Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as 

amended. 

Abstract (Needs and Uses): The OPIC 

129 form is the principal document 

used by OPIC to determine the 

investor’s and project’s eligibility, assess 

the environmental impact and 

developmental effects of the project, 

measure the economic effects for the 

United States and the host country 

economy, and collect information for 

underwriting analysis.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[Release No. 34–59613; File No. SR–NYSE– 

2009–27] 

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Notice 

of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness 

of Proposed Rule Change by New York 

Stock Exchange LLC Amending NYSE 

Rule 124 To Execute the Odd-Lot 

Portion of a Part of a Round-Lot Order 

Pursuant to the Same Pricing 

Methodology Used for Odd-Lot Orders 

March 20, 2009. 

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 March 

11, 2009, New York Stock Exchange 

LLC (‘‘NYSE’’ or the ‘‘Exchange’’) filed 

with the Securities and Exchange 

Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the 

proposed rule change as described in 

Items I, II, and III below, which Items 

have been prepared by the selfregulatory 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 Substance of 

the Proposed Rule Change 

The Exchange proposes to amend 

NYSE Rule 124 (Odd-Lot Orders) to 

execute the odd-lot portion of a part of 

a round-lot (‘‘PRL’’) order pursuant to 

the same pricing methodology used for 

odd-lot orders. 

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 

New York Stock Exchange LLC 

(‘‘NYSE’’ or the ‘‘Exchange’’) proposes 

to amend Exchange Rule 124 (Odd-Lot 

Orders) to execute the odd-lot portion of 

a part of a round-lot (‘‘PRL’’) order 

pursuant to the same pricing 

methodology used for odd-lot orders.4

The Exchange notes that parallel 

changes are proposed to be made to the 

rules of the NYSE Alternext Exchange 

(formerly the American Stock 

Exchange).5

Background 

Currently, odd-lot orders on the 

Exchange are processed in a separate 

system on the Exchange from the 

Exchange systems that execute roundlot orders. Odd-lots are executed 

systemically by Exchange systems 

designated solely for odd-lot orders (the 

‘‘Odd-lot System’’).6 The odd-lot System 

executes all odd-lot orders against the 

DMM as the contra party.7

Pursuant to NYSE Rule 124(c), after 

odd-lot market orders and marketable 

odd-lot limit orders are received by the 

Odd-lot System, they are automatically 

executed at the price of the next roundlot transaction in the subject security on 

the Exchange. Specifically, marketable 

odd-lot orders and marketable odd-lot 

limit orders are executed in time 

priority of receipt at the price of the 

next round-lot transaction, pursuant to 

the net process described in footnote 6 

[sic]. The imbalance of marketable oddlot orders that do not receive an 

execution as a result of the netting 

provision are executed in time priority 

of receipt at the price of the NBBO, 

subject to a volume limitation.8 Any 

imbalances of odd-lot limit orders that 

were non-marketable upon receipt that 

subsequently become marketable 

receive an execution at their limit 

price.9 Marketable odd-lot orders which 

would otherwise receive a partial 

execution pursuant to the volume 

limitation are executed in full.10

Any marketable odd-lot orders that do 

not receive an execution because of the 

volume limitation are executed, in time 

priority of receipt at the price of the 

next round-lot transaction, following 

pricing and execution procedures 

described above. Marketable odd-lot 

orders (including odd-lot limit orders 

that were non-marketable upon receipt 

and subsequently become marketable) 

that remain unexecuted within 30 

seconds of receipt will be executed, in 

time priority of receipt, at the price of 

the NBBO (or at its limit price if the 

order is a non-marketable odd-lot limit 

order upon receipt that has become 

marketable). These orders are also 

subject to the volume limitation. 

Marketable odd-lot orders and nonmarketable odd-lot limit orders that 

have become marketable and remain 

unexecuted prior to the close of trading 

shall be executed, in time priority of 

receipt at the price of the closing 

transaction, subject to the netting 

provision and a volume restriction
