Title and Purpose of Information 

Collection 

Appeal Under the Railroad 

Retirement and Railroad Unemployment 

Insurance Act; OMB 3220–0007 Under 

Section 7(b)(3) of the Railroad 

Retirement Act (RRA), and section 5(c) 

of the Railroad Unemployment 

Insurance Act (RUIA) any person 

aggrieved by a decision on his or her 

application for an annuity or benefit 

under that Act has the right to appeal to 

the RRB. This right is prescribed in 20 

CFR part 260 and 20 CFR part 320. The 

notification letter sent to the individual 

at the time of the original action on the 

application informs the applicant of 

such right. When an individual protests 

a decision, the concerned bureau 

reviews the entire file and any 

additional evidence submitted and 

sends the applicant a letter explaining 

the basis of the determination. The 

applicant is then notified that if he or 

she wishes to protest further, they can 

appeal to the RRB’s Bureau of Hearings 

and Appeals. The procedure pertaining 

to the filing of such an appeal is 

prescribed in 20 CFR 260.5 and 260.9 

and 20 CFR 320.12 and 320.38. 

The form prescribed by the RRB for 

filing an appeal under the RRA or RUIA 

is form HA–1, Appeal Under the 

Railroad Retirement Act or Railroad 

Unemployment Insurance Act. The form 

asks the applicant to furnish the basis 

for the appeal and what additional 

evidence, if any, is to be submitted. 

Completion is voluntary, however if the 

information is not provided the RRB 

cannot process the appeal. 

The RRB proposes to remove items 

from Form HA–1 that request the 

appellant to provide their social security 

number or RRB Claim number. No other 

changes are proposed. The completion 

time for the HA–1 is estimated at 20 

minutes per response. The RRB 

estimates that approximately 650 Form 

HA–1’s are completed annually. Annual 

burden for the collection is estimated at 

217 hours. 

Additional Information or Comments: 

To request more information or to 

obtain a copy of the information 

collection justification, forms, and/or 

supporting material, please call the RRB 

Clearance Officer at (312) 751–3363 or 

send an e-mail request to 

Charles.Mierzwa@RRB.GOV. Comments 

regarding the information collection 

should be addressed to Ronald J. 

Hodapp, Railroad Retirement Board, 844 

North Rush Street, Chicago, Illinois 

60611–2092 or send an e-mail to 

Ronald.Hodapp@RRB.GOV. Written 

comments should be received within 60 

days of this notice.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

Release No. 34–58454] 

Order Granting Application for 

Exemption Pursuant to Section 36(a) of 

the Exchange Act by the Philadelphia 

Stock Exchange, Inc. From the Rule 

Filing Requirements of Section 19(b) of 

the Exchange Act With Respect to 

Certain Rules Incorporated by 

Reference 

September 3, 2008. 

I. Introduction 

On June 27, 2007,1 the Philadelphia 

Stock Exchange, Inc., n/k/a NASDAQ 

OMX PHLX, Inc., (‘‘Phlx’’ or the 

‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities 

and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) pursuant to Rule 0–12 2

under the Securities Exchange Act of 

1934 (‘‘Exchange Act’’) an application 

for an exemption under Section 36(a)(1) 

of the Exchange Act 3 from the rule 

filing requirements of Section 19(b) of 

the Exchange Act 4 with respect to 

certain margin rules of other selfregulatory organizations (‘‘SROs’’) that 

the Exchange seeks to incorporate by 

reference. 

II. Application for Section 36 

Exemption From Section 19(b) Rule 

Filing Requirements for SRO Rules 

Incorporated by Reference 

On August 11, 2008, the Commission 

approved a proposed rule change—SRPhlx–2007–33—which, among other 

things, permits Phlx members to elect to 

be bound by the margin rules of either 

the New York Stock Exchange LLC 

(‘‘NYSE’’) or the Chicago Board Options 

Exchange, Incorporated (‘‘CBOE’’).5

More specifically, Phlx amended its 

Rule 721 to state a member organization 

must elect to be bound by the initial and 

maintenance margin requirements of 

either the NYSE or CBOE as the same 

may be in effect and amended from time 

to time.6 Phlx Rule 721 further states 

that upon the filing of such election, a 

Phlx member shall be bound to comply 

with the margin rules of the NYSE or 

CBOE, as applicable, as though said 

rules were part of Phlx’s margin rules. 

On June 26, 2007, Phlx submitted a 

formal request, pursuant to Rule 0–12 

under the Exchange Act,7 seeking an 

exemption under Section 36 of the 

Exchange Act from the rule filing 

procedures of Section 19(b) of the 

Exchange Act with respect to changes to 

the margin rules of either the NYSE or 

CBOE.8

III. Order Granting Section 36 

Exemption 

Section 36 of the Exchange Act 9

authorizes the Commission to 

conditionally or unconditionally 

exempt any person, security, or 

transaction, or any class thereof, from 

any provision of the Exchange Act or 

rule thereunder, if necessary or 

appropriate in the public interest and 

consistent with the protection of 

investors. The Commission believes that 

it is appropriate to issue exemptions, 

subject to the conditions described 

below, to allow SROs to incorporate by 

reference the rules of other SROs 

without being subject to the rule filing 

requirements of Section 19(b) of the 

Exchange Act whenever the SRO’s rules 

that are incorporated by reference 

change. Such exemptions promote 

efficient use of Commission and SRO 

resources by avoiding duplicative rule 

filings based on simultaneous changes 

to identical rule text sought by more 

than one SRO. 

The Commission will consider 

granting requests for exemption, 

pursuant to Section 36 of the Exchange 

Act, from the rule filing requirements 

imposed by Section 19(b) of the 

Exchange Act, provided that:10
