Report market-maker BFMM short sales
If you are an Industry Member that reports trades to the Consolidated Audit Trail (CAT), you must record and report, for the original receipt or origination of an order to sell an equity security, whether the order is a short sale for which a market maker is claiming the bona fide market making exception in Rule 203(b)(2)(iii) of Regulation SHO.
