2021-27300 Internal Personnel Rules and Practices of the NTSB; Corrections Rule This document corrects the wording reflected in various sections in part 801 as a result of the amendatory language in the interim final rule (IFR) published in the Federal Register (FR) on October 4, 2021. The IFR amended part 801, in pertinent part, by revising all references to "public reading room" to read "electronic reading room". Consequently, that revision resulted in needless repetition of "electronic reading room" in several part 801 regulations. This correction amends the affected regulations to reflect the agency's original intent. 2021-12-30 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/30/2021-27300/internal-personnel-rules-and-practices-of-the-ntsb-corrections https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-30/pdf/2021-27300.pdf National Transportation Safety Board 374 This document corrects the wording reflected in various sections in part 801 as a result of the amendatory language in the interim final rule (IFR) published in the Federal Register (FR) on October 4, 2021.

2021-27854 Revised 2023 and Later Model Year Light-Duty Vehicle Greenhouse Gas Emissions Standards Rule The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is revising the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions standards under the Clean Air Act section 202(a) for light-duty vehicles for 2023 and later model years to make the standards more stringent. On January 20, 2021, President Biden issued Executive Order 13990 "Protecting Public Health and the Environment and Restoring Science To Tackle the Climate Crisis" directing EPA to consider whether to propose suspending, revising, or rescinding the standards previously revised under the "The Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule for Model Years 2021- 2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks," promulgated in April 2020. EPA is revising the GHG standards to be more stringent than the SAFE rule standards in each model year from 2023 through 2026. EPA is also including temporary targeted flexibilities to address the lead time of the final standards and to incentivize the production of vehicles with zero and near-zero emissions technology. In addition, EPA is making technical amendments to clarify and streamline our regulations. 2021-12-30 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/30/2021-27854/revised-2023-and-later-model-year-light-duty-vehicle-greenhouse-gas-emissions-standards https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-30/pdf/2021-27854.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is revising the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions standards under the Clean Air Act section 202(a) for light-duty vehicles for 2023 and later model years to make the standards more stringent.

2021-28232 Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone off Alaska; Reclassifying Sculpin Species in the Groundfish Fisheries of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands and the Gulf of Alaska; Correcting Amendment Rule The National Marine Fisheries Service is correcting regulations published in a final rule on July 10, 2020, which reclassified sculpins as Ecosystem Component (EC) category, non-target species in both the Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands (BSAI) (Amendment 121) and Gulf of Alaska (Amendment 110) Groundfish Fishery Management Plans (FMPs). In the implementing regulations, footnotes requiring the full retention of all rockfish species by catcher vessels (CVs) using hook- and-line, pot, or jig gear in the BSAI (Amendment 119) and Gulf of Alaska (Amendment 107) were unintentionally omitted from Tables 10 and 11 to 50 CFR part 679. This correcting amendment is therefore necessary to restore the footnotes as published in the final rule implementing Amendments 119 and 107 and to make other minor corrections. 2021-12-30 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/30/2021-28232/fisheries-of-the-exclusive-economic-zone-off-alaska-reclassifying-sculpin-species-in-the-groundfish https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-30/pdf/2021-28232.pdf Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 54,361 The National Marine Fisheries Service is correcting regulations published in a final rule on July 10, 2020, which reclassified sculpins as Ecosystem Component (EC) category, non-target species in both the Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands (BSAI) (Amendment...
2021-28266 Rescission of Labor Organization Annual Financial Report for Trusts In Which A Labor Organization Is Interested, Form T-1 Rule This rule rescinds the final rule published in the Federal Register on March 6, 2020, (2020 Form T-1 rule), which established the Form T-1, Trust Annual Report, required to be filed by labor organizations about certain trusts in which they are interested pursuant to the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA). Upon further review of the 2020 Form T-1 rule, including the pertinent facts and legally relevant policy considerations surrounding that rulemaking, the Department of Labor (Department) withdraws the rule implementing the Form T-1, because it has determined that the 2020 rulemaking record, particularly its analysis of the burden and the benefit of the rule, was insufficient as a matter of policy to justify the trust reporting requirements set forth in the 2020 Form T-1 rule. Further, by requiring reporting on entities not controlled or dominated by labor unions, the Department has determined that the trust reporting required under the rule is overly inclusive and is not necessary to prevent the circumvention and evasion of the Title II reporting requirements. 2021-12-30 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/30/2021-28266/rescission-of-labor-organization-annual-financial-report-for-trusts-in-which-a-labor-organization-is https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-30/pdf/2021-28266.pdf Labor Department; Labor-Management Standards Office 271,274 This rule rescinds the final rule published in the Federal Register on March 6, 2020, (2020 Form T-1 rule), which established the Form T-1, Trust Annual Report, required to be filed by labor organizations about certain trusts in which they are...

2021-28340 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Helicopters Rule The FAA is superseding airworthiness directive (AD) 2021-24- 06, which applied to certain Airbus Helicopters Model EC130T2 helicopters. AD 2021-24-06 required repetitive visual inspections of the rivets on the rear transmission shaft bearing support and of the local structure for cracking and missing, loose, or sheared rivets and accomplishment of applicable corrective actions. This AD retains those requirements and adds repetitive visual inspections of the rivet heads on the left-hand and right-hand sides of the rear transmission shaft bearing support, revises a corrective action, and adds a reporting requirement, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. This AD also revises the special flight permit limitation from AD 2021-24-06. This AD was prompted by an additional report of loose rivet heads on the outside face of the tail boom corner support. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. 2021-12-30 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/30/2021-28340/airworthiness-directives-airbus-helicopters https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-30/pdf/2021-28340.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 The FAA is superseding airworthiness directive (AD) 2021-24- 06, which applied to certain Airbus Helicopters Model EC130T2 helicopters.

2021-27538 Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; Bus Rollover Structural Integrity Rule NHTSA is issuing this final rule to establish Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 227, "Bus rollover structural integrity," to enhance the rollover structural integrity of over-the- road buses (motorcoaches), and other buses with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) greater than 11,793 kilograms (kg) (26,000 pounds (lb)). This final rule, issued pursuant to the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), requires the buses to provide a "survival space" in a rollover test to protect occupants from possible collapse of the bus structure around them. In addition, to reduce the likelihood of ejection, this final rule prohibits emergency exits from opening in the rollover test. This final rule ensures that bus roofs and side wall panels will resist deformation and intrusion into the occupant space in rollover crashes, and reduces the risk of emergency exits becoming ejection portals in a crash. 2021-12-29 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/29/2021-27538/federal-motor-vehicle-safety-standards-bus-rollover-structural-integrity https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-29/pdf/2021-27538.pdf Transportation Department; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 492,345 NHTSA is issuing this final rule to establish Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 227, "Bus rollover structural integrity," to enhance the rollover structural integrity of over-the- road buses (motorcoaches), and other buses with a gross...

2021-27796 Clean Air Plans; 2012 Fine Particulate Matter Serious Nonattainment Area Requirements; San Joaquin Valley, California Proposed Rule The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or "Agency") proposes to approve portions of two state implementation plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the State of California to meet Clean Air Act (CAA or "Act") requirements for the 2012 annual fine particulate matter (PM<INF>2.5</INF>) national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS or "standards") in the San Joaquin Valley (SJV) Serious nonattainment area. Specifically, the EPA proposes to approve the State's Serious area plan for the 2012 annual PM<INF>2.5</INF> NAAQS, submitted May 10, 2019, for all Serious PM<INF>2.5</INF> area requirements (except contingency measures), including emissions inventories, best available control measures, demonstrations of attainment and reasonable further progress, quantitative milestones, and motor vehicle emission budgets. We may, however, reconsider this proposal if, based on new information or public comments, we find that the State has not satisfied the statutory criteria for a Serious area PM<INF>2.5</INF> attainment plan. The EPA also proposes to disapprove the portions of the State's Serious area plan, and the contingency provisions of a third SIP submission regarding residential wood burning, that pertain to the Serious area contingency measurement requirements for the 2012 annual PM<INF>2.5</INF> NAAQS. 2021-12-29 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/29/2021-27796/clean-air-plans-2012-fine-particulate-matter-serious-nonattainment-area-requirements-san-joaquin https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-29/pdf/2021-27796.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or "Agency") proposes to approve portions of two state implementation plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the State of California to meet Clean Air Act (CAA or "Act") requirements for the 2012 annual fine...
2021-27836 Additional Protocol Regulations: Mandatory Electronic Submission of Reports Through the Additional Protocol Reporting System (APRS) Proposed Rule The Additional Protocol is an agreement between the United States and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to allow monitoring and reporting of certain civil nuclear fuel cycle-related activities. The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) administers the Additional Protocol Regulations (APR), which implement the provisions of the Additional Protocol affecting U.S. industry and other U.S. persons engaged in certain civil nuclear fuel cycle-related activities that are not regulated by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), or its domestic Agreement States, and are not situated at certain U.S. government locations. The APR describe the requirement to report such activities to BIS, as well as the conduct of on-site activities in conjunction with IAEA complementary access to locations where such civil nuclear fuel cycle-related activities take place. This rule proposes to amend the APR to replace the existing manual reporting and processing procedures with a mandatory requirement to submit reports and other documents on-line through the Additional Protocol Reporting System (APRS). As a result of this proposed change, all persons and locations in the United States that are subject to the reporting requirements in the APR would be required to register on-line to set up an APRS account, submit reports and other documents to BIS via APRS, and maintain current user account information in APRS. This rule also proposes to amend the APR to clarify and update other requirements (e.g., by removing the provisions that address the Initial Report requirements for calendar year 2008, replacing the provisions that address Amended Report requirements, and revising the definitions of certain terms used in the APR). 2021-12-29 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/29/2021-27836/additional-protocol-regulations-mandatory-electronic-submission-of-reports-through-the-additional https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-29/pdf/2021-27836.pdf Commerce Department; Industry and Security Bureau 54,241 The Additional Protocol is an agreement between the United States and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to allow monitoring and reporting of certain civil nuclear fuel cycle-related activities.

2021-28107 Pacific Island Pelagic Fisheries; 2022 U.S. Territorial Longline Bigeye Tuna Catch Limits Rule NMFS specifies a 2022 limit of 2,000 metric tons (t) of longline-caught bigeye tuna for each U.S. Pacific territory (American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), the territories). NMFS will allow each territory to allocate up to 1,500 t in 2022 to U.S. longline fishing vessels through specified fishing agreements that meet established criteria. The overall allocation limit among all territories, however, may not exceed 3,000 t. As an accountability measure, NMFS will monitor, attribute, and restrict (if necessary) catches of longline-caught bigeye tuna, including catches made under a specified fishing agreement. These catch limits and accountability measures support the long-term sustainability of fishery resources of the U.S. Pacific Islands. 2021-12-29 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/29/2021-28107/pacific-island-pelagic-fisheries-2022-us-territorial-longline-bigeye-tuna-catch-limits https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-29/pdf/2021-28107.pdf Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 54,361 NMFS specifies a 2022 limit of 2,000 metric tons (t) of longline-caught bigeye tuna for each U.S. Pacific territory (American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), the territories).

2021-28115 Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) Preemption Rule This document finalizes NHTSA's proposal to repeal in full "The Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule Part One: One National Program," published September 27, 2019 (SAFE I Rule), in which NHTSA codified regulatory text and made additional pronouncements regarding the preemption of state and local laws related to fuel economy standards. NHTSA originally proposed to repeal the SAFE I Rule in a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking entitled "Corporate Average Fuel Economy Preemption," which was published on May 12, 2021. After evaluating all public comments submitted for this Proposal, the Agency is finalizing the Proposal. As such, the Agency is repealing all regulatory text and appendices promulgated in the SAFE I Rule. In doing so, the Agency underscores that any positions announced in preambulatory statements of prior NHTSA rulemakings, including in the SAFE I Rule, which purported to define the scope of preemption under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), do not reflect the Agency's reconsidered understanding of its proper role in matters of EPCA preemption. Through this final rule, NHTSA makes clear that no prior regulations or positions of the Agency reflect ongoing NHTSA views on the scope of preemption of states or local jurisdictions under EPCA. 2021-12-29 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/29/2021-28115/corporate-average-fuel-economy-cafe-preemption https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-29/pdf/2021-28115.pdf Transportation Department; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 492,345 This document finalizes NHTSA's proposal to repeal in full "The Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule Part One: One National Program," published September 27, 2019 (SAFE I Rule), in which NHTSA codified regulatory text and made...

2021-28134 Airworthiness Directives; General Electric Company Turbofan Engines Proposed Rule The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2019-22-05, which applies to all General Electric Company (GE) CF34-8C model turbofan engines. AD 2019-22-05 requires initial and repetitive inspections of the operability bleed valve (OBV) fuel tubes, OBV bleed air manifold link rod assemblies, and the OBV fuel fittings. AD 2019- 22-05 also requires replacement of OBVs or related OBV hardware that fail inspection. Since the FAA issued AD 2019-22-05, the manufacturer has redesigned the OBV, which terminates the need for the repetitive inspections. This proposed AD would require initial and repetitive inspections of the OBV fuel tubes, OBV bleed air manifold link rod assemblies, and the OBV fuel fittings. This proposed AD would also require replacement of OBVs or related OBV hardware that fail inspection. As a terminating action to the repetitive inspections, this proposed AD would require replacement of certain OBVs installed on GE CF34-8C and CF34-8E model turbofan engines. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. 2021-12-29 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/29/2021-28134/airworthiness-directives-general-electric-company-turbofan-engines https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-29/pdf/2021-28134.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2019-22-05, which applies to all General Electric Company (GE) CF34-8C model turbofan engines.

In the Part 2 risk evaluation for asbestos, EPA will evaluate the conditions of use of asbestos (including other types of asbestos fibers in addition to chrysotile) that EPA had excluded from Part 1 as legacy uses and associated disposals, as well as any conditions of use of asbestos in talc and talc-containing products. The draft scope for this chemical substance includes the conditions of use, hazards, exposures, and the potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulations that EPA plans to consider in conducting the risk evaluation for this chemical substance. EPA is also opening a 45- calendar day comment period on the draft scope to allow for the public to provide additional data or information that could be useful to the Agency in finalizing the scope of the risk evaluation; comments may be submitted to this docket. 2021-12-29 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/29/2021-28230/asbestos-part-2-supplemental-evaluation-including-legacy-uses-and-associated-disposals-of-asbestos https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-29/pdf/2021-28230.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 In accordance with implementing regulations for the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing the availability of and soliciting public comment on the draft scope of the Risk Evaluation for Asbestos...
2021-28231 Cyclic Aliphatic Bromide Cluster (HBCD); Draft Revision to Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Risk Determination; Notice of Availability and Request for Comment Notice The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing the availability of and requesting public comment on a draft revision to the risk determination for the Cyclic Aliphatic Bromide Cluster (HBCD) risk evaluation issued under TSCA. The draft revision to the HBCD risk determination was developed following a review of the first ten risk evaluations issued under TSCA that was done in accordance with Executive Orders and other Administration priorities, including those on environmental justice, scientific integrity, and regulatory review, and this draft revision reflects the announced policy changes to ensure the public is protected from unreasonable risks from chemicals in a way that is supported by science and the law. Specifically, in this draft revision to the risk determination EPA finds that HBCD, as a whole chemical substance, presents an unreasonable risk of injury to health and the environment when evaluated under its conditions of use. This draft revision supersedes the condition of use-specific no unreasonable risk determinations in the September 2020 HBCD risk evaluation (and withdraw the associated order) and makes a revised determination of unreasonable risk for HBCD as a whole chemical substance. In addition, this draft revised risk determination does not reflect an assumption that workers always appropriately wear personal protective equipment (PPE). 2021-12-29 2021 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/12/29/2021-28231/cyclic-aliphatic-bromide-cluster-hbcd-draft-revision-to-toxic-substances-control-act-tsca-risk https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-12-29/pdf/2021-28231.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing the availability of and requesting public comment on a draft revision to the risk determination for the Cyclic Aliphatic Bromide Cluster (HBCD) risk evaluation issued under TSCA.
