Adoption of Updated EDGAR Filer Manual

40308 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 142 / Wednesday, July 28, 2021 / Rules and Regulations surface and IFR arrivals descending below 1,500 feet above the surface. To properly contain arriving and departing IFR aircraft, the radius south of the airport is reduced from 6.9 miles to 5 miles. The radius north of the airport is increased from 6.9 miles to 7.3 miles. Also, the area extending north of the airport is increased to properly contain IFR aircraft performing a procedure turn maneuver for the NDB–A Approach. This action also removes the Class E airspace extending upward from 1,200 feet above the surface. This airspace area is wholly contained within the Denver en route airspace and duplication is not necessary. Further, this action removes the Saratoga NDB and the Cherokee VOR/ DME from the Class E5’s text header and airspace description. The navigational aids (NAVAIDs) are not needed to define the airspace and removal of the NAVAIDs simplifies the airspace description. Lastly, the action implements several administrative updates to the airspace text header. The city name is removed from the second line of the text header, and the airport’s geographic coordinates on the third line of the text header are updated to ‘‘lat. 41°26′37″ N, long. 106°49′39″ W,’’ to match the FAA database. FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is published yearly and effective on September 15. Regulatory Notices and Analyses The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is non-controversial, and unlikely to result in adverse or negative comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Environmental Review The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ paragraph 5–6.5a. This airspace action is not expected to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant the preparation of an environmental assessment. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71 Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air). Adoption of the Amendment In consideration of the foregoing, the Federal Aviation Administration amends 14 CFR part 71 as follows: PART 71—DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, B, C, D, AND E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIR TRAFFIC SERVICE ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS ■ 1.

II. Amendments to Volumes I of the Filer Manual The EDGAR System was updated in Release 21.2 and the following update is being made to Volume I of the EDGAR Filer Manual. Volume I of the EDGAR Filer Manual sets forth the requirements, among other things, for securely maintaining EDGAR access codes, maintaining current company information in EDGAR, and obtaining a new passphrase—the access code that allows a filer to reset other codes—when the passphrase is lost or compromised. A filer who has lost their passphrase may reset it by requesting a security token be sent to the contact email address on record for the account. Individuals frequently contact the Commission, however, indicating they represent the filer but do not have EDGAR access codes, and the contact email on file is not current. Volume I allows these filers to regain access to their EDGAR account through a ‘‘manual passphrase’’ request. The Commission staff attempts to carefully screen these requests, and Volume I is being amended to add requirements to enable Commission staff to more effectively assess manual passphrase requests. The amendments will require filers to upload specified supporting documentation to demonstrate the relationships between the entity requesting access and the existing EDGAR account, and the entity requesting access and the individual acting for that entity. Filers seeking access to an existing EDGAR account for which they have neither the access codes nor the current contact email address would be required to submit documents with the request for access, and additional documents as requested by SEC staff. The amendments will also provide that filers seeking access under this process must allow at least five (5) business days for processing of the request, and must respond to requests from SEC staff for additional information and documents. III. Edgar System Changes and Associated Modifications to Volume II of the Edgar Filer Manual EDGAR is being updated in Release 21.2, and was previously updated in 21.1.3, and corresponding amendments to Volume II of the Filer Manual are being made to reflect these changes, as described below.2 On April 8, 2020, the Commission amended Forms S–1, S–3, F–1 and F– 3 to enable issuers of Exchange Traded Vehicle Securities to register an indeterminate number of shares and to pay fees annually based on net issuances, or to register a fixed amount of the securities and pay the associated fees.3 EDGAR Release 21.2 updates submission form types S–1, S1/A, S–3, S–3/A, F–1, F–1/A, F–3 and F–3/A to include ‘‘Exchange Traded Vehicle Securities’’ as a new security type. See Chapter 7 (Preparing and Transmitting EDGARLink Online Submissions) of the EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ‘‘EDGAR Filing.’’ On October 7, 2020, the Commission adopted new rules and amended existing rules and forms to create a comprehensive regulatory framework for fund of funds arrangements.4 As part of the new rule, Release 21.2 updates submission form types N–CEN and N– CENA to include updated form content and adds two new questions on the form types related to unit investment trusts in Part F., and to management companies in Part C. See Chapter 8 (Preparing and Transmitting Online Submissions) of the EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ‘‘EDGAR Filing.’’ Also, the following updates will be made to Volume II of EDGAR Filer Manual: Updates to technical instructions will be added to support filers with constructing attached documents and document types and interactive data. See Chapter 5 (Constructing Attached Documents and Document Types) and Chapter 6 (Interactive Data) of the EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ‘‘EDGAR Filing.’’ The EDGAR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) screens of the EDGAR Filing website and the EDGAR Filer Management website will be updated to remove the ‘‘EDGAR Quick Reference Guides’’ hyperlink.5 See Appendix B (Frequently Asked Questions) of the EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ‘‘EDGAR Filing.’’ EDGAR Release 21.1.3 also introduced the following software changes and the Filer Manual is being revised accordingly: • In accordance with Release 33– 10884,6 submission form types C, C/A, and C–U were updated to increase the offering limit from $1,070,000 to $5,000,000. Filers can specify up to $5,000,000 for the Target Offering Amount and Maximum Offering Amount. See Chapter 8 (Preparing and Transmitting Online Submissions) of the EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ‘‘EDGAR Filing.’’ • In Release 33–10231,7 the Commission rescinded Forms N–Q and N–SAR. Accordingly, effective May 10, 2021, Release 21.1.3 modified EDGAR to no longer accept the following form types: N–Q, N–Q/A, NSAR–A, NSAR– A/A, NSAR–AT, NSAR–AT/A, NSAR– B, NSAR–B/A, NSAR–BT, NSAR–BT/A, NSAR–U, NSAR–U/A, NT–NSAR, and NT–NSAR/A. See Chapter 3 (Index to Forms), Chapter 7 (Preparing and Transmitting EDGARLink Online Submissions), Appendix C (EDGAR Submission Types), and Appendix E (Automated Conformance Rules for EDGAR Data Fields) of the EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ‘‘EDGAR Filing.’’ Additional update and minor corrections made to the EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ‘‘EDGAR Filing’’ include: • Updates to instructions for filing Form X–17A–5 Part III noting the staff of the Division of Trading and Markets’ temporary conditional no-action position for broker-dealers that are unable to obtain notarization services due to difficulties arising from COVID– 19. See Section 8.2.20 of Chapter 8 (Preparing and Transmitting Online Submissions). • Correction of the title ‘‘EDGAR TA XML Technical Specification.’’ See Chapter 3 (Index to Forms). • Replacement of Figure 8–188: ‘‘Signature Screen for submission form type X–17A–5.’’ • Updates to references to ‘‘Convert Paper Only Filer to Electronic Filer’’ to ‘‘Apply for EDGAR Access: Applicants With a CIK but Without EDGAR Access Codes.’’ 8 VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:30 Jul 27, 2021 Jkt 253001 PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\28JYR1.SGM 28JYR1 khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES

EDGAR Release 21.2 also introduces additional changes in EDGAR that do not require corresponding amendments to the Filer Manual. See the ‘‘Updates’’ section of Volume II of the EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ‘‘EDGAR Filing.’’ IV. Amendments to Rule 301 of Regulation S–T Along with the adoption of the updated Filer Manual, we are amending Rule 301 of Regulation S–T to provide for the incorporation by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations of the current revisions. This incorporation by reference was approved by the Director of the Federal Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. The updated EDGAR Filer Manual is available at https://www.sec.gov/edgar/ filer-information/current-edgar-filer￾manual. Typically, the EDGAR Filer Manual is also available for website viewing and printing in the Commission’s Public Reference Room, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549, on official business days between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Due to pandemic conditions, however, access to the Commission’s Public Reference Room is not permitted at this time. V. Administrative Law Matters Because the Filer Manual, and form and rule amendments, relate solely to agency procedures or practice and do not substantially alter the rights and obligations of non-agency parties, publication for notice and comment is not required under the Administrative Procedure Act (‘‘APA’’).9 It follows that the amendments do not require analysis under requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act 10 or a report to Congress under the Small Business Regulatory Fairness Act.11 The effective date for the updated Filer Manual and related rule amendments is July 28, 2021. In accordance with the APA,12 we find that there is good cause to establish an effective date less than 30 days after publication of these rules. The Commission believes that establishing an effective date less than 30 days after publication of these rules is necessary to coordinate the effectiveness of the updated Filer Manual with the related system upgrades. VI. Statutory Basis We are adopting the amendments to Regulation S–T under the authority in Sections 6, 7, 8, 10, and 19(a) of the Securities Act of 1933,13 Sections 3, 12, 13, 14, 15, 15B, 23, and 35A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,14 Section 319 of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939,15 and Sections 8, 30, 31, and 38 of the Investment Company Act of 1940.16 List of Subjects in 17 CFR Part 232 Incorporation by reference, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Securities. Text of the Amendments In accordance with the foregoing, title 17, chapter II of the Code of Federal Regulations is amended as follows: PART 232 REGULATION S–T— GENERAL RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR ELECTRONIC FILINGS ■ 1. The authority citation for part 232 continues to read, in part, as follows: Authority: 15 U.S.C. 77c, 77f, 77g, 77h, 77j, 77s(a), 77z–3, 77sss(a), 78c(b), 78l, 78m, 78n, 78o(d), 78w(a), 78ll, 80a–6(c), 80a–8, 80a–29, 80a–30, 80a–37, 7201 et seq.; and 18 U.S.C. 1350, unless otherwise noted. ■ 2. Section 232.301 is revised to read as follows: § 232.301 EDGAR Filer Manual. Filers must prepare electronic filings in the manner prescribed by the EDGAR Filer Manual, promulgated by the Commission, which sets forth the technical formatting requirements for electronic submissions. The requirements for becoming an EDGAR Filer and updating company data are set forth in the updated EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume I: ‘‘General Information,’’ Version 38 (June 2021). The requirements for filing on EDGAR are set forth in the updated EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ‘‘EDGAR Filing,’’ Version 58 (June 2021). All of these provisions have been incorporated by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations, which action was approved by the Director of the Federal Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. You must comply with these requirements in order for documents to be timely received and accepted.
