    The Lake Upchurch Dam Preservation Association has filed an application to surrender its exemption for the Raeford Hydroelectric Project, located on Rockfish Creek in North Carolina. The project has not been operational since 2016 due to storm damage. They plan to remove electrical connections and the substation to prevent future power generation but will not make significant changes to the dam or structures. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) will prepare an environmental assessment (EA) for this proposal, with completion expected by July 31, 2025, followed by a 30-day period for public comments.

    The Cboe EDGX Exchange, Inc. is proposing a new fee structure for users wishing to purchase Dedicated Cores instead of sharing CPU resources. These Dedicated Cores can enhance trading performance by reducing latency and improving throughput. They are optional, and users can choose to stick to shared resources. The first two Dedicated Cores are free, while additional cores incur progressive fees. The proposal aims to manage the finite CPU resources fairly and is part of the exchange's efforts to keep up with growing user demand.

    Simple Explanation

    In this document, the Cboe EDGX Exchange says that companies can pay extra money to use special computer parts called Dedicated Cores to make their trading faster. The first two are free, but if they want more, they have to pay more.

    The Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. has proposed a change to its fee structure related to a new service involving Dedicated Cores. These Dedicated Cores allow firms to use the full processing power of a CPU core, offering benefits such as reduced latency and improved trading performance. The proposal includes different monthly fees based on the number of cores a firm uses, with up to two cores provided at no cost as an option for all users. This fee structure is designed to be fair, as higher fees are charged to those consuming more resources, and the service is entirely optional and not required for trading on the Exchange.

    Simple Explanation
