49918 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 207 / Friday, October 27, 2017 / Notices 

18 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A). 

19 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b– 

4(f)(6)(iii) requires the Exchange to give the 

Commission written notice of the Exchange’s intent 

to file the proposed rule change, along with a brief 

description and text of the proposed rule change, 

at least five business days prior to the date of filing 

of the proposed rule change, or such shorter time 

as designated by the Commission. The Exchange 

has satisfied this requirement. 

20 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). 

21 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6)(iii). 

22For purposes only of waiving the 30-day 

operative delay, the Commission has also 

considered the proposed rule’s impact on 

efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 

15 U.S.C. 78c(f). 23 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

corrected cross-reference is substantially 

identical to the cross reference in 

Nasdaq Rule 4619(d) to Nasdaq Rule 

4620, which in turn is substantially 

identical to IEX Rule 11.153. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

IEX does not believe that the 

proposed rule change will result in any 

burden on competition that is not 

necessary or appropriate in furtherance 

of the purposes of the Act. The 

proposed rule change is designed to 

provide appropriate, objective and 

transparent criteria for Market Maker 

excused withdrawals in securities listed 

on IEX. The Exchange does not believe 

that the proposed rule change will result 

in any burden on intramarket 

competition because all Market Makers 

will be subject to the same criteria. The 

Exchange also does not believe that the 

proposed rule change will result in any 

burden on intermarket competition, 

since Nasdaq has substantially similar 

criteria for excused withdrawals and 

other exchanges are free to adopt 

comparable criteria. The Exchange also 

believes that the proposed rule change 

will serve to promote clarity and 

consistency, as noted in the Statutory 

Basis section, thereby reducing burdens 

on competition and facilitating investor 

protection. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

Written comments were neither 

solicited nor received. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the proposed rule change 

does not (i) significantly affect the 

protection of investors or the public 

interest; (ii) impose any significant 

burden on competition; and (iii) become 

operative for 30 days from the date on 

which it was filed, or such shorter time 

as the Commission may designate if 

consistent with the protection of 

investors and the public interest, the 

proposed rule change has become 

effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) 

of the Act 18 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 

thereunder.19

A proposed rule change filed under 

Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 20 normally does not 

become operative for 30 days after the 

date of filing. However, pursuant to 

Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii),21 the Commission 

may designate a shorter time if such 

action is consistent with the protection 

of investors and the public interest. The 

Exchange has asked the Commission to 

waive the 30-day operative delay so that 

the proposal may become operative 

immediately upon filing. The 

Commission believes that waiver of the 

operative delay is consistent with the 

protection of investors and the public 

interest because the Exchange’s 

proposed rule change will conform 

IEX’s rules to a substantially similar 

provision in the rules of Nasdaq, and 

the Exchange’s proposal does not raise 

any new or novel issues. Accordingly, 

the Commission hereby waives the 30- 

day operative delay requirement and 

designates the proposed rule change as 

operative upon filing.22

At any time within 60 days of the 

filing of the proposed rule change, the 

Commission summarily may 

temporarily suspend such rule change if 

it appears to the Commission that such 

action is necessary or appropriate in the 

public interest, for the protection of 

investors, or otherwise in furtherance of 

the purposes of the Act. If the 

Commission takes such action, the 

Commission shall institute proceedings 

to determine whether the proposed rule 

should be approved or disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments 

Interested persons are invited to 

submit written data, views, and 

arguments concerning the foregoing, 

including whether the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the Act.

the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. General 

The Computer Matching and Privacy 

Protection Act of 1988 (Pub. L. 100– 

503), amended the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 

552a) by describing the conditions 

under which computer matching 

involving the Federal government could 

be performed and adding certain 

protections for persons applying for, 

and receiving, Federal benefits. Section 

7201 of the Omnibus Budget 

Reconciliation Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101– 

508) further amended the Privacy Act 

regarding protections for such persons. 

The Privacy Act, as amended, 

regulates the use of computer matching 

by Federal agencies when records in a 

system of records are matched with 

other Federal, State, or local government 

records. It requires Federal agencies 

involved in computer matching 

programs to: 

(1) Negotiate written agreements with 

the other agency or agencies 

participating in the matching programs; 

(2) Obtain approval of the matching 

agreement by the Data Integrity Boards 

of the participating Federal agencies; 

(3) Publish notice of the computer 

matching program in the Federal 

Register; 

(4) Furnish detailed reports about 

matching programs to Congress and 

OMB; 

(5) Notify applicants and beneficiaries 

that their records are subject to 

matching; and 

(6) Verify match findings before 

reducing, suspending, terminating, or 

denying a person’s benefits or 

payments. 

B. SSA Computer Matches Subject to 

the Privacy Act 

We have taken action to ensure that 

all of our computer matching programs 

comply with the requirements of the 

Privacy Act, as amended.

Acting Executive Director, Office of Privacy 

and Disclosure, Office of the General Counsel. 

Notice of Computer Matching Program, 

SSA With the Department of Labor (DOL) 

A. PARTICIPATING AGENCIES: 

SSA and DOL 

B. PURPOSE OF THE MATCHING PROGRAM: 

The purpose of this matching program 

is to establish the terms, conditions, and 

safeguards under which the Department 

of Labor (DOL) will disclose the DOL 

administered Part C Black Lung (BL) 

benefit data to us. We will match DOL’s 

Part C BL data with our records of 

persons receiving Social Security 

disability benefits to verify that Part C 

BL beneficiaries are receiving the 

correct amount of Social Security 

disability benefits. 

C. AUTHORITY FOR CONDUCTING THE MATCHING

PROGRAM: 

The legal authority for this agreement 

is executed in accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, as 

amended by the Computer Matching 

and Privacy Protection Act of 1988, as 

amended, and the regulations 

promulgated thereunder. 

The legal authority for this agreement 

is section 224(h)(1) of the Social 

Security Act (Act), 42 U.S.C. 424a(h)(1). 

This legal authority requires any Federal 

agency to provide us with information 

in its possession that we may require for 

making a timely determination of the 

amount of reduction required under 

section 224 of the Act for workers’ 

compensation offset. 

D. CATEGORIES OF RECORDS AND PERSONS

SYSTEMS OF RECORDS: 

SSA will match the DOL extract file

January 11, 2006, as amended at 72 FR 

69723 (December 10, 2007) and 78 FR

is from DOL’s OWCP, BL Benefit 

Payments file, DOL/OWCP–9, last fully 

published at 81 FR 25765 on April 29, 

2016. Both agencies have published the 

appropriate routine uses to permit the 

disclosures necessary to conduct this 

match. 

NUMBER OF RECORDS: 

DOL’s monthly extract file will 

contain the necessary identifying and 

payment information for approximately 

23,000 beneficiaries, all miners under 

age 65 entitled to receive Part C BL 

payments. We will match these DOL 

records against the MBR. 

SPECIFIED DATA ELEMENTS: 

DOL’s monthly extract file will 

contain each Part C BL beneficiary’s 

Social Security number (SSN), name, 

date of birth, date of entitlement, 

payment status, current benefit amount, 

and effective date of the current benefit 

amount. We will determine which of the 

beneficiaries are receiving Social 

Security disability benefits and match 

the DOL data against the SSN, type of 

action code, and offset type for those 

beneficiaries in our MBR.
