48126 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 198 / Monday, October 16, 2017 / Notices 

After issuing Revision 3, the Nuclear 

Energy Institute (NEI) submitted a letter 

to NRC stating that Revision 3 requires 

licensees to consider exposures received 

by employees during prior employment 

at a different facility when determining 

whether monitoring is required 

pursuant to section 10 CFR 20.1502, 

which was a change in agency position 

from: (1) The staff position that was in 

both Revisions 1 and 2 of Regulatory 

Guide 8.7, (2) the staff position that is 

in Regulatory Guide 8.34, and (3) over 

two decades of industry practice 

developed in accordance with these 

staff positions. 

In response, the NRC staff reassessed 

the requirements in 10 CFR part 20 and 

concluded that another revision to RG 

8.7 was warranted. This revision 

contains essentially the staff position as 

set forth in Revisions 1 and 2 of RG 8.7. 

However, the staff is not rescinding 

Revision 3 because it allows a more 

conservative option for those licensees 

who want to consider prior 

occupational dose when making 10 CFR 

20.1502 determinations. DG–8056 

retains clarifying changes made in 

Revision 3. 

III. Use of NRC Forms 4 and 5 

DG–8056 references NRC Form 4, 

‘‘Cumulative Occupational Dose History 

(04–2015),’’ or its electronic equivalent, 

which is available for use by NRC 

licensees to record an individual’s 

cumulative occupational dose history. 

DG–8056 also references NRC Form 5, 

‘‘Occupational Dose Record for a 

Monitoring Period (04–2015),’’ or its 

electronic equivalent, which is available 

for use by NRC licensees to record the 

occupational dose for any monitoring 

period beginning on or after January 1, 

2016. As noted in the December 8, 2016 

Federal Register notice for Revision 3, 

all NRC licensees should have begun 

using the updated NRC Form 5, 

‘‘Occupational Dose Record for a 

Monitoring Period (04–2015),’’ or its 

equivalent, for any monitoring period 

beginning on or after January 1, 2017. 

Both forms are available online through 

the NRC Library on the NRC’s public 

Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/readingrm/doc-collections. 

IV. Backfitting 

This DG addresses compliance with 

the NRC’s requirements in 10 CFR part 

20 to record and report an individual’s 

cumulative occupational dose history 

and the occupational dose received by 

an individual for a specific monitoring 

period. The NRC regards these 

requirements as constituting 

information collection and reporting 

requirements. The NRC has long taken 

the position that information collection 

and reporting requirements are not 

subject to the NRC’s backfitting and 

issue finality regulations in 10 CFR 

50.109, 10 CFR 70.76, 10 CFR 72.62, 10 

CFR 76.76, and 10 CFR part 52 (e.g., 

‘‘Material Control and Accounting 

Methods,’’ December 23, 2002 (67 FR 

78130); and ‘‘Regulatory Improvements 

to the Nuclear Materials Management 

and Safeguards System,’’ June 9, 2008 

(73 FR 32453)). Therefore, the NRC has 

determined that its backfitting and issue 

finality regulations would not apply to 

this DG, if ultimately issued as a RG, 

because the DG does not include any 

provisions within the scope of matters 

covered by the backfitting provisions in 

10 CFR parts 50, 70, 72, or 76, or the 

issue finality provisions of 10 CFR part 

52.

4A Managed Fund Share is a security that 

represents an interest in an investment company 

registered under the Investment Company Act of 

1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–1) (‘‘1940 Act’’) organized as 

an open-end investment company or similar entity 

that invests in a portfolio of securities selected by 

its investment adviser consistent with its 

investment objectives and policies. In contrast, an 

open-end investment company that issues 

Investment Company Units, listed and traded on 

the Exchange under NYSE Arca Rule 5.2–E(j)(3), 

seeks to provide investment results that correspond 

generally to the price and yield performance of a 

specific foreign or domestic stock index, fixed 

income securities index or combination thereof. 

5The Commission has previously approved 

listing and trading on the Exchange of other series 

of the Trust that are actively managed funds under 

Rule 8.600–E. See, e.g., Securities Exchange Act 

Release Nos. 79683 (December 23, 2016) (SR– 

NYSEArca–2016–82) (order approving a proposed 

rule change to list and trade shares of the JPMorgan 

Diversified Event Driven ETF under NYSE Arca 

Equities Rule 8.600); 77904 (May 25, 2016) (SR– 

NYSEArca–2016–17) (order approving a proposed 

rule change to list and trade of shares of the 

JPMorgan Diversified Alternatives ETF under NYSE 

Arca Equities Rule 8.600). 

6The Trust is registered under the 1940 Act. On 

July 18, 2017, the Trust filed with the Commission 

an amendment to its registration statement on Form 

N–1A under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 

77a) (‘‘Securities Act’’) and the 1940 Act relating to 

the Fund (File Nos. 333–191837 and 811–22903) 

(the ‘‘Registration Statement’’). The description of 

the operation of the Trust and the Fund herein is 

based, in part, on the Registration Statement. In 

addition, the Commission has issued an order 

granting certain exemptive relief to the Trust under 

the 1940 Act. See Investment Company Act Release 

No. 31990 (February 9, 2016) (‘‘Exemptive Order’’). 

Investments made by the Fund will comply with 

the conditions set forth in the Exemptive Order. 

7An investment adviser to an open-end fund is 

required to be registered under the Investment 

Advisers Act of 1940 (the ‘‘Advisers Act’’). As a 

result, the Adviser and its related personnel are 

subject to the provisions of Rule 204A–1 under the 

Advisers Act relating to codes of ethics. This Rule 

requires investment advisers to adopt a code of 

ethics that reflects the fiduciary nature of the 

relationship to clients as well as compliance with 

other applicable securities laws. Accordingly, 

procedures designed to prevent the communication 

and misuse of non-public information by an 

investment adviser must be consistent with Rule 

204A–1 under the Advisers Act. In addition, Rule 

206(4)–7 under the Advisers Act makes it unlawful 

for an investment adviser to provide investment 

advice to clients unless such investment adviser has 

(i) adopted and implemented written policies and 

procedures reasonably designed to prevent 

violation, by the investment adviser and its 

supervised persons, of the Advisers Act and the 

Commission rules adopted thereunder; (ii) 

implemented, at a minimum, an annual review 

regarding the adequacy of the policies and 

procedures established pursuant to subparagraph (i) 

above and the effectiveness of their 

implementation; and (iii) designated an individual 

(who is a supervised person) responsible for 

administering the policies and procedures adopted 

under subparagraph (i) above. 

The following individuals will serve 

as members of the NRC PRB Panel that 

was established to review appraisals 

and make recommendations to the 

appointing and awarding authorities for 

NRC PRB members: 

Brooke P. Clark, Director, Office of 

Commission Appellate Adjudication 

Daniel H. Dorman, Regional 

Administrator, Region I 

Andrea D. Veil, Executive Director, 

Advisory Committee on Reactor 

Safeguards 

All appointments are made pursuant 

to Section 4314 of Chapter 43 of Title 

5 of the United States Code.

notice is hereby given that, on 

September 26, 2017, NYSE Arca, Inc. 

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

with the Securities and Exchange 

Commission (‘‘Commission’’) the 

proposed rule change as described in 

Items I and II below, which Items have 

been prepared by the self-regulatory 

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 list and 

trade shares of the following under 

NYSE Arca Equities 8.600–E (‘‘Managed 

Fund Shares’’): JPMorgan Equity Long/ 

Short ETF. The proposed change is 

available on the Exchange’s Web site at 

www.nyse.com, at the principal office of 

the Exchange, 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 the 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

1. Purpose 

The Exchange proposes to list and 

trade shares (‘‘Shares’’) of the following 

under NYSE Arca Rule 8.600–E, which 

governs the listing and trading of 

Managed Fund Shares 4 on the 

Exchange: 5 JPMorgan Equity Long/ 

Short ETF (the ‘‘Fund’’).6

The Fund is a series of J.P. Morgan 

Exchange-Traded Fund Trust (‘‘Trust’’), 

a Delaware statutory trust. J.P. Morgan 

Investment Management Inc. (‘‘Adviser’’ 

or ‘‘Administrator’’) will be the 

investment adviser to the Fund and also 

provide administrative services for and 

oversee the other service providers for 

the Fund. The Adviser is a whollyowned subsidiary of JPMorgan Asset 

Management Holdings Inc., which is an 

indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of 

JPMorgan Chase & Co. (‘‘JPMorgan 

Chase’’), a bank holding company. 

JPMorgan Distribution Services, Inc. 

(‘‘Distributor’’) will be the distributor of 

the Fund’s Shares. 

Commentary .06 to Rule 8.600–E 

provides that, if the investment adviser 

to the investment company issuing 

Managed Fund Shares is affiliated with 

a broker-dealer, such investment adviser 

shall erect a ‘‘fire wall’’ between the 

investment adviser and the brokerdealer with respect to access to 

information concerning the composition 

and/or changes to such investment 

company portfolio.7 In addition, 

Commentary .06 further requires that 

personnel who make decisions on the 

open-end fund’s portfolio composition 

must be subject to procedures designed 

to prevent the use and dissemination of 

material nonpublic information 

regarding the open-end fund’s portfolio. 

The Adviser is not registered as a 

broker-dealer but is affiliated with a 

broker-dealer and has implemented and 

will maintain a fire wall with respect to 

such broker-dealer affiliate regarding 

access to information concerning the 

composition and/or changes to the 

portfolio. In the event (a) the Adviser 

becomes registered as a broker-dealer or
