| 94-27057 | Applications Under Regulation Y | Rule | These rules are intended to implement the simplified notice procedures recently established under section 346 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 for bank holding companies proposing to engage de novo or through an acquisition in nonbanking activities. Because Section 346 implements this procedure immediately, the Board has proposed the following as an interim rule that will take effect immediately and will apply to all notices filed subsequent to enactment of Section 346. The Board also is seeking comments on the interim rule, and will amend the rule as needed to address the comments received. The Board is currently developing additional initiatives to reduce the regulatory burden associated with its application and notice procedures, and the Board invites comment on any suggestions in furtherance of these initiatives. | 1994-11-02 | 1994 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/11/02/94-27057/applications-under-regulation-y | Federal Reserve System | 188 | These rules are intended to implement the simplified notice procedures recently established under section 346 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 for bank holding companies proposing to engage de novo or through... | |
| 94-27058 | Applications Under Regulation Y | Rule | These rules implement the streamlined notice procedure recently enacted in Section 319 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 (``Riegle Act'') for the formation of a new bank holding company that results from a corporate reorganization of a bank by the current shareholders of the bank. These rules also implement section 321 of the Riegle Act, which amends the Bank Holding Company Act and the Bank Merger Act to authorize the Board to shorten the post-approval waiting period for bank acquisitions and mergers (during which time the United States Attorney General may review the competitive effects of a proposal approved by the Board) from 30 to 15 days with the consent of the United States Attorney General. Because the procedures prescribed by section 319 and section 321 are effective immediately, the Board has proposed the following as an interim rule that will take effect immediately. The Board is seeking comments on this interim rule, and will amend the rule as needed to address the comments received. The Board also is currently developing additional initiatives to reduce the regulatory burden associated with its application and notice procedures, and invites comment on any suggestions in furtherance of these initiatives. DATES: Interim Rule effective on November 2, 1994; comments must be received by December 5, 1994. | 1994-11-02 | 1994 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/11/02/94-27058/applications-under-regulation-y | Federal Reserve System | 188 | These rules implement the streamlined notice procedure recently enacted in Section 319 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 (``Riegle Act'') for the formation of a new bank holding company that results from a... | |
| 94-27082 | Securities Offering Disclosure Rules | Rule | The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is amending its regulations governing the disclosure requirements for offers and sales of national bank securities.

The final rule also cross-references certain provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 and SEC rules. The purpose of the final rule is to reduce unnecessary regulatory burdens on national banks and enhance their ability to raise capital, while maintaining the quality of disclosures provided to investors. The final rule generally treats national bank securities comparably to those of other corporations and eliminates a duplicative and potentially confusing system of regulations and forms. | 1994-11-02 | 1994 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/11/02/94-27082/securities-offering-disclosure-rules | Treasury Department; Comptroller of the Currency | 497,80 | The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is amending its regulations governing the disclosure requirements for offers and sales of national bank securities.

The new Rule and amendments to Rule 10b-10 are designed to provide relevant information to customers regarding factors influencing the routing of their orders. The new Rule and amendments to Rule 10b-10 also will serve to enhance investor protection and further competition for retail orders by enabling customers to evaluate more effectively the markets to which their orders are routed. | 1994-11-02 | 1994 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/11/02/94-27109/payment-for-order-flow | Securities and Exchange Commission | 466 | The Securities and Exchange Commission announces the adoption of Rule 11Ac1-3 and amendments to Rule 10b-10 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which, together, require enhanced disclosure of payment for order flow practices on customer... | |

| 94-27148 | Extension of Import Restrictions on Maya Artifacts From the Peten Region, Guatemala | Rule | This document amends the Customs Regulations to reflect the extension of the import restrictions on Maya artifacts from the Peten Region, Guatemala which were imposed by T.D. 91-34.

| 94-27152 | Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment | Rule | This notice amends Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108 to specify that plastic materials used in reflex reflectors show not more than 7 percent haze after a 3-year outdoor exposure test, a level at which haze becomes discernable to the naked eye. This amendment will not change the stringency of the standard as it has been applied, but it will increase its objectivity. NHTSA has not adopted its proposal that cumulative haze not exceed 7 percent when a plastic lens is placed in front of a reflex reflector. Instead, the same haze criterion is applied to the reflex reflector and outer lens material. This approach will limit cumulative haze to about the same level without the need to retest current materials. | 1994-11-02 | 1994 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/11/02/94-27152/federal-motor-vehicle-safety-standards-lamps-reflective-devices-and-associated-equipment | Transportation Department; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration | 492,345 | This notice amends Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108 to specify that plastic materials used in reflex reflectors show not more than 7 percent haze after a 3-year outdoor exposure test, a level at which haze becomes discernable to the naked... | |

After EPA published the final rule, certain manufacturers questioned the scope of the manufacturers, importers, and processors subject to the test rule. EPA is now clarifying that only manufacturers, importers, and processors of TMB as an isolated product, and not persons who manufacture, import, or process the substance as part of complex mixtures or substances, are subject to the final test rule requiring certain health effects testing. | 1994-09-02 | 1994 | 9 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/09/02/94-21692/office-of-water-chemicals-final-test-rule-clarification | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | On November 10, 1993, EPA published a TSCA section 4 final test rule requiring testing of 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene (TMB) (CAS No. 108-67-8).

| 94-21722 | Paroling, Recommitting, and Supervising Federal Prisoners: Parole Hearings Conducted by Single Hearing Examiners | Rule | The U.S. Parole Commission is adopting a rule that permits parole hearings for eligible federal prisoners to be conducted by a single hearing examiner. Formerly, parole hearings were conducted by panels of two examiners, with single-examiner hearings being the exception. The final rule issued today makes single examiner hearings the norm, with the Commission having the option to order panel hearings when appropriate. Review and voting by the Regional Administrator will provide the Regional Commissioner with a panel recommendation of two examiners before a decision is rendered. The rule will also permit a hearing examiner (or panel) to withhold the recommended decision that is usually given to the prisoner at the conclusion of a parole hearing, if a critical issue requires further consideration. The purpose served by this final rule is to adjust the Commission's procedures to the down-sizing requirements of the Commission's impending abolition, without lessening the quality of justice in parole hearings and decisions. | 1994-09-02 | 1994 | 9 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/09/02/94-21722/paroling-recommitting-and-supervising-federal-prisoners-parole-hearings-conducted-by-single-hearing | Justice Department; Parole Commission | 268,401 | The U.S. Parole Commission is adopting a rule that permits parole hearings for eligible federal prisoners to be conducted by a single hearing examiner.

A number of the revisions are required by the American Technology Preeminence Act of 1992, including provisions on: participation by foreign companies in ATP; the establishment of a patent policy different from the government-wide policy set out by the Bayh-Dole Act; and a new requirement that ``joint research and development ventures'' be industry-led. Further, requirements for royalty-sharing by ATP recipients with the Federal government for inventions funded under ATP have been repealed by the Act, and are thus removed from the regulations. Similarly, ATP authority to provide direct funding to independent research organizations has been repealed. Also, changes not required by the Act are made, including changes to simplify and clarify the selection criteria, and to streamline the internal operations of ATP, including the selection process. | 1994-01-06 | 1994 | 1 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/01/06/94-69/advanced-technology-program | Commerce Department; Technology Administration | 54,484 | The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is today issuing a final rule which amends the implementing regulations for the Advanced Technology Program (ATP).
