Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 188 / Friday, September 26, 2008 / Notices 55881 

Source Suppliers and Producers 

Association (ISSPA), both dated 

September 19, 2008, for extension of the 

comment period from September 30 to 

October 30, 2008. 

Response to Request 

The request for an extension to the 

comment period is approved for 15 

days. 

The staff understands that NEI, 

CRCPD and ISSPA requested an 

extension of 30 days. However, NRC can 

not grant the full extension because the 

comments are needed by mid-October 

for development of future NRC actions 

for Commission consideration by 

November 2008. Therefore, the staff is 

approving a 15-day extension to the 

original public comment period, with 

the public comment period to end on 

October 15, 2008. The staff recognizes 

that the public and other stakeholder 

comments may be impacted by the 

discussions that will occur during the 

two-day public meeting which 

concludes on September 30, 2008, and 

therefore agrees to extend the comment 

period an additional 15 days. 

Members of the public are invited and 

encouraged to submit comments 

electronically to http:// 

www.regulations.gov. Search on Docket 

ID: [NRC–2008–0419] and follow the 

instructions for submitting comments.

BILLING CODE 7590–01–P 

RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD 

Agency Forms Submitted for OMB 

Review, Request for Comments 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. Chapter 35), the Railroad 

Retirement Board (RRB) is forwarding 

an Information Collection Request (ICR) 

to the Office of Information and 

Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) to 

request an extension without change of 

a currently approved collection of 

information: 3220–0038, Medical 

Reports. Our ICR describes the 

information we seek to collect from the 

public. Review and approval by OIRA 

ensures that we impose appropriate 

paperwork burdens. 

The RRB invites comments on the 

proposed collection of information to 

determine (1) The practical utility of the 

collection; (2) the accuracy of the 

estimated burden of the collection; (3) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility and 

clarity of the information that is the 

subject of collection; and (4) ways to 

minimize the burden of collections on 

respondents, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

Comments to RRB or OIRA must contain 

the OMB control number of the ICR. For 

proper consideration of your comments, 

it is best if RRB and OIRA receive them 

within 30 days of publication date. 

Under Sections 2(a)(1)(iv), 2(a)(2) and 

2(a)(3) of the Railroad Retirement Act 

(RRA), annuities are payable to qualified 

railroad employees whose physical or 

mental condition is such that they are 

unable to (1) work in their regular 

occupation (occupational disability); or 

(2) work at all (permanent total 

disability). The requirements for 

establishment of disability and proof of 

continuance of disability are prescribed 

in 20 CFR 220. 

Under Sections 2(c)(1)(ii)(c) and 

2(d)(1)(ii) of the RRA, annuities are also 

payable to qualified spouses and 

widow(ers), respectively, who have a 

qualified child who is under a disability 

which began before age 22. Annuities 

are also payable to surviving children 

on the basis of disability under Section 

2(d)(1)(iii)(C) if the child’s disability 

began before age 22 and to widow(ers) 

on the basis of disability under section 

2(d)(1) (i)(B). To meet the disability 

standard, the RRA provides that 

individuals must have a permanent 

physical or mental condition such that 

they are unable to engage in any regular 

employment. 

Under section 2(d)(1)(v) of the RRA, 

annuities are also payable to remarried 

and surviving divorced spouses on the 

basis of, inter alia, disability or having 

a qualified disabled child in care. 

However, the disability standard in 

these cases is that found in the Social 

Security Act. That is, individuals must 

be able to engage in any substantial 

gainful activity by reason of any 

medically determinable physical or 

mental impairment. The RRB also 

determines entitlement to a period of 

early disability and early Medicare 

entitlement for qualified claimants in 

accordance with Section 216 of the 

Social Security Act. 

When making disability 

determinations, the RRB needs evidence 

from acceptable medical sources. The 

RRB currently utilizes Forms G–3EMP, 

Report of Medical Condition by 

Employer; G–197, Authorization to 

Release Medical Information, G–250, 

Medical Assessment; G–250a, Medical 

Assessment of Residual Functional 

Capacity; G–260, Report of Seizure 

Disorder; RL–11b, Disclosure of 

Hospital Medical Records; RL–11d, 

Disclosure of Medical Records from a 

State Agency; and RL–250, Request for 

Medical Assessment, to obtain the 

necessary medical evidence. The RRB 

proposes no changes to the information 

collection. Completion of the forms is 

voluntary. One response is requested of 

each respondent. 

Previous Requests for Comments: The 

RRB has already published the initial 

60-day notice (73 FR 22183 on April 24,

Abstract: The Railroad Retirement Act 

provides disability annuities for 

qualified railroad employees whose

regular occupation (occupational 

disability) or any occupation (total

information needed for determining the 

nature and severity of the impairment.

collection.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[Release No. 34–58603; File No. SR–CBOE– 

2008–97] 

Self-Regulatory Organizations; 

Chicago Board Options Exchange, 

Incorporated; Notice of Filing of a 

Proposed Rule To Establish a CBSXOnly Order Type 

September 19, 2008. 

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

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 

‘‘Exchange Act’’) 1 and Rule 19b–4 

thereunder,2 notice is hereby given that 

on September 16, 2008, the Chicago 

Board Options Exchange, Incorporated 

(the ‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘CBOE’’) filed with 

the Securities and Exchange 

Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the 

proposed rule change as described in 

Items I and II below, which Items have 

been prepared by the Exchange. 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 change 

CBOE Stock Exchange (‘‘CBSX’’) Rule 

51.8, to adopt a CBSX-Only order. The 

text of the proposed rule change is 

available on the Exchange’s Web site 

(http://www.cboe.com), at the Office of 

the Secretary, CBOE 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 purpose of this proposed rule 

change is to revise CBOE Stock 

Exchange (‘‘CBSX’’) Rule 51.8 to adopt 

a CBSX-Only order type. A CBSX-only 

order is an order to buy or sell that is 

to be executed in whole or in part on 

CBSX, and the portion not so executed 

is to be cancelled, without routing the 

order to another market center or market 

participant, and without being 

‘‘flashed’’ at the NBBO price to CBSX 

Traders pursuant to Rule 52.6 when 

CBSX is not at the NBBO and the order 

is marketable against the NBBO. Thus, 

a CBSX-Only order would either 

immediately execute on CBSX, get 

booked on CBSX (provided it does not 

cause a locked or crossed market), or 

cancel. Many exchanges have similar 

order-types (e.g. NSX Rule 11.11(c)(6)). 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes the proposed 

rule change is consistent with section 

6(b) of the Act 3 in general and furthers 

the objectives of section 6(b)(5) of the 

Act 4 in particular in that, by offering 

users greater control over order routing, 

it is designed to promote just and 

equitable principles of trade, serve to 

remove impediments to and perfect the 

mechanism of a free and open market 

and a national market system.
