The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in serious or potentially fatal injury to the captain after a flight deck decompression event.

Finally, the Commission proposed to require DCOs to conduct a daily calculation and reconciliation of the amount of funds owed to customers and clearing members and the amount actually held for customers and clearing members. The comment period for the NPRM was to close on February 16, 2024. In response to a request by commenters, the Commission is extending the comment period for this NPRM by an additional 31 days.3 This extension of the comment period will allow interested persons additional time to analyze the proposal and prepare their comments.
