2026-20329 Reforming Federal Reporting and Assessments in Child Welfare Proposed Rule ACF proposes to remove regulations that implement title IV-B of the Social Security Act (the Act) because they are outdated and refer to dates that have passed, have been superseded by subsequent amendments to the Act, duplicate or restate requirements already in title IV-B of the Act or other Federal law, and/or impose administrative and reporting requirements on agencies that do not meaningfully support Federal program oversight and administration of title IV-B programs. Four of these regulatory requirements are redesignated to the regulations addressing titles IV-E and IV-B plan requirements. ACF also proposes to remove the regulation that articulates the principles of child and family services reviews because it does not prescribe any requirements that states and tribes must follow, but rather provides unenforceable recommendations, and to remove redundant cross-references. 2026-10-05 2026 10 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/10/05/2026-20329/reforming-federal-reporting-and-assessments-in-child-welfare https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-10-05/pdf/2026-20329.pdf Health and Human Services Department; Children and Families Administration 221,49 ACF proposes to remove regulations that implement title IV-B of the Social Security Act (the Act) because they are outdated and refer to dates that have passed, have been superseded by subsequent amendments to the Act, duplicate or restate requirements... 0970-AD32
2026-20335 Exemptions From Materials Licensing Proposed Rule The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to amend several regulations for byproduct, source, and special nuclear material by expanding how certain nuclear material can be safely used without a license.

2026-20360 Interval Fund Modernization; Expansion of Multiple Share Class to Registered Closed-End Management Investment Companies and Business Development Companies Proposed Rule The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") is proposing to amend the rule under the Investment Company Act of 1940 that allows registered closed-end management investment companies and business development companies (collectively, "regulated closed-end funds") to make repurchase offers to shareholders at net asset value ("NAV") at periodic intervals pursuant to a fundamental policy ("interval funds"). The proposed amendments would increase flexibility in the rule's repurchase offer framework and modify the rule's liquidity management requirements. The proposal is designed to modernize the framework applicable to these funds by allowing them to better match the liquidity profile of the assets in which they invest, while continuing to provide the operational infrastructure and investor protection of the Investment Company Act of 1940. We also propose amending certain rules that would permit regulated closed-end funds to issue multiple share classes, consistent with routine exemptive relief provided to these funds, and to require certain related disclosure in funds' prospectuses. We further propose to require disclosures in all regulated closed-end fund shareholder reports, a legend in their prospectuses, and an increase in the dollar amount used for the prospectus expense example, to provide investors with information about fund expenses similar to that provided by registered open-end funds. As a result of these amendments for interval funds and multiple share class regulated closed-end funds, we propose to rescind existing related exemptive orders. 2026-10-05 2026 10 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/10/05/2026-20360/interval-fund-modernization-expansion-of-multiple-share-class-to-registered-closed-end-management https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-10-05/pdf/2026-20360.pdf Securities and Exchange Commission 466 The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") is proposing to amend the rule under the Investment Company Act of 1940 that allows registered closed-end management investment companies and business development companies (collectively,... 3235-AN83

2026-20393 Airworthiness Directives; DG Aviation GmbH (Type Certificate Previously Held by DG Flugzeugbau GmbH) Gliders Proposed Rule The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2025-13-08, which applies to all DG Aviation GmbH Model DG-1000T gliders. AD 2025-13-08 requires revising the glider flight manual and installing "Motor INOP" placards to prohibit operation with the powerplant. Since issuance of AD 2025-13-08, a design improvement to the propeller adapter ring has been developed that is considered terminating action for the operational prohibition of AD 2025-13-08. This proposed AD would retain the requirement to revise the flight manual, would provide an optional terminating action for the retained actions by incorporating a specified modification, would allow removal of the "Motor INOP" placards following accomplishment of that optional terminating action, and would require removal, inspection, and reinstallation of the propeller adapter disk, including installation of safety pins. This proposed AD would also prohibit the installation of affected propeller adapter rings.

2026-20102 Approval of Implementation Plans for Air Quality Planning Purposes; State of Nevada; Truckee Meadows Second 10-Year Maintenance Plan for the 1987 PM-10 Standard Proposed Rule The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve the "Second 10-Year Maintenance Plan for the Truckee Meadows 24-Hour PM<INF>10</INF> Attainment Area" ("Truckee Meadows Second PM<INF>10</INF> Maintenance Plan" or "Plan") as a revision to the Washoe County portion of the State implementation plan (SIP) for the State of Nevada. The Truckee Meadows Second PM<INF>10</INF> Maintenance Plan includes, among other elements, a base year emissions inventory, a maintenance demonstration, contingency provisions, and motor vehicle emissions budgets for use in transportation conformity determinations. With this proposed rulemaking, the EPA is initiating the adequacy process for the 2025, 2030, and 2040 motor vehicle emissions budgets. The EPA is proposing these actions because the SIP revision meets the applicable statutory and regulatory requirements for such plans and motor vehicle emissions budgets.

2026-20123 General Provisions; Revised List of Birds Protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act Proposed Rule We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), propose to revise the List of Birds Protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) by both adding and removing species and changing names to conform to accepted use by the scientific community. Reasons for the proposed changes to the list include adding species based on new taxonomy and new evidence of natural occurrence in the United States or U.S. territories, removing species no longer known to occur within the United States or U.S. territories, and changing names to reflect currently accepted taxonomy and nomenclature. The net increase of 25 species (32 added and 7 removed) would bring the total number of species protected by the MBTA to 1,131. We also propose to revise the names of species subject to specific migratory bird permit regulations to reflect currently accepted taxonomy and nomenclature. We are taking this proposed action because an accurate and up-to-date list of species protected by the MBTA is essential for public notification, regulatory, and law-enforcement purposes, and to ensure consistency in the use of common and scientific names across Service regulations. 2026-10-01 2026 10 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/10/01/2026-20123/general-provisions-revised-list-of-birds-protected-by-the-migratory-bird-treaty-act https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-10-01/pdf/2026-20123.pdf Interior Department; Fish and Wildlife Service 253,197 We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), propose to revise the List of Birds Protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) by both adding and removing species and changing names to conform to accepted use by the scientific community.... 1018-BI13

2026-20038 Television Broadcasting Services Savannah, Georgia Proposed Rule This document proposes to amend the Table of TV Allotments (Table) of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules in response to a petition for rulemaking filed by Georgia Public Telecommunications Commission (Georgia Public Broadcasting or Petitioner), the licensee of noncommercial educational television station WVAN-TV (WVAN-TV or Station), Savannah, Georgia (Savannah). The Petitioner requests the substitution of UHF channel *18 in place of its current VHF channel *8 at Savannah in the Table, with the technical parameters specified in the Petition. In support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner asserts that allowing the Station to move to a UHF channel would serve the public interest by improving the community's access to WVAN-TV's locally produced programs. The Petitioner observes that the Commission has recognized that VHF channels have certain characteristics that have posed challenges for their use in providing digital television service, including propagation characteristics allowing undesired signals and noise to be receivable at relatively farther distances. Additionally, the Petitioner notes that the Commission has observed large variability in the performance of indoor antennas available to consumers, with most antennas receiving fairly well at UHF and the substantial majority not so well to very poor at high-VHF. An engineering statement provided by the Petitioner confirms that the proposed channel *18 contour would provide full principal community coverage to Savannah and that the proposed channel substitution contour would not cause impermissible interference to any other licensed facilities. When taking into account the ability of viewers to obtain PBS programming from other nearby stations, the proposed channel substitution would not cause any loss of service. 2026-09-30 2026 9 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/09/30/2026-20038/television-broadcasting-services-savannah-georgia https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-09-30/pdf/2026-20038.pdf Federal Communications Commission 161 This document proposes to amend the Table of TV Allotments (Table) of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules in response to a petition for rulemaking filed by Georgia Public Telecommunications Commission (Georgia Public Broadcasting...

2026-19729 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Helicopters Proposed Rule The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Helicopters Model AS 365 N2, AS 365 N3, EC 155 B, EC 155 B1, SA 365 N, and SA 365 N1 helicopters. This proposed AD was prompted by gaps between the seals and engine cowling, which were found during an investigation related to an engine compartment fire. Gaps between the seals and engine cowling could cause inadequate sealing of the engine compartment firewalls leading to fire propagation between engine compartments and reduced effectiveness of the extinguishing agent. This proposed AD would require modifying the engine compartment firewalls by installing angle-brackets along the firewalls. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. 2026-09-28 2026 9 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/09/28/2026-19729/airworthiness-directives-airbus-helicopters https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-09-28/pdf/2026-19729.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Helicopters Model AS 365 N2, AS 365 N3, EC 155 B, EC 155 B1, SA 365 N, and SA 365 N1 helicopters.

2026-19774 National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Gasoline Distribution Facilities and Standards of Performance for Bulk Gasoline Terminals Reconsideration Proposed Rule On May 8, 2024, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP): Gasoline Distribution Technology Reviews and New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) Review for Bulk Gasoline Terminals final rule ("2024 Final Rule"). The EPA is reconsidering various provisions of the 2024 Final Rule in this proposed rule, including the operating limits and continuous compliance requirements for air emission control devices, and the vapor tightness requirements for gasoline cargo tanks. The EPA is also reconsidering the modification criteria in the NSPS and proposing other technical corrections and clarifications. The EPA does not anticipate that this proposed action will impact volatile organic compound (VOC) or hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions generated by gasoline distribution facilities because the proposed amendments do not impact the stringency of the emission standards set by the 2024 Final Rule. As such, the EPA expects the proposed amendments will have no impact on air quality or overall human health. The EPA is not reopening any other aspect of the 2024 Final Rule and does not intend to respond to comments addressing any other issues or provisions not specifically addressed in this proposed rulemaking. 2026-09-28 2026 9 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/09/28/2026-19774/national-emission-standards-for-hazardous-air-pollutants-for-gasoline-distribution-facilities-and https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-09-28/pdf/2026-19774.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 On May 8, 2024, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP): Gasoline Distribution Technology Reviews and New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) Review for Bulk... 2060-AW66

2026-19815 Establishment, Modification, and Revocation of Class E Airspace; Alaska, AK Proposed Rule This action supplements a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) published by the FAA in the Federal Register on June 17, 2025, which proposed to establish Class E domestic en route airspace (Class E6) within a designated landmass and within 12 miles from a designated shoreline associated with the state of Alaska to facilitate the vectoring of instrument flight rules (IFR) aircraft on direct routes where the current en route structure is insufficient or improper within the proposed airspace areas. As revised in this SNPRM, the FAA now proposes to establish five discrete areas of Class E domestic en route airspace over the state. Due to redundancy, the NPRM also proposed to remove two Class E6 airspace areas and modify 101 Class E airspace areas extending upward from at least 700 feet or more above the surface of the earth (Class E5) to remove any portion extending upward from 1,200 feet above the surface. This SNPRM continues to propose these actions, but also now proposes to remove two Class E airspace areas extending upward from 1,200 feet above the surface, revoke a duplicate Class E5 airspace legal description, and redefine airspace areas from a "Point of Origin" instead of using their respective airport reference points. Finally, both the NPRM and this SNPRM propose administrative amendments to the legal descriptions of 101 Class E5 airspace areas that would correct or update nomenclature as needed. This action would support IFR operations while enhancing the safety and management of aircraft operations within the National Airspace System (NAS). 2026-09-28 2026 9 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/09/28/2026-19815/establishment-modification-and-revocation-of-class-e-airspace-alaska-ak https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-09-28/pdf/2026-19815.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 This action supplements a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) published by the FAA in the Federal Register on June 17, 2025, which proposed to establish Class E domestic en route airspace (Class E6) within a designated landmass and within 12 miles... 2120-AA66

2026-19691 Explosives Magazine Safety Requirements Proposed Rule The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives ("ATF") proposes amending Department of Justice ("Department") regulations to streamline requirements for maintaining structures used for storing explosives, called "magazines." ATF proposes consolidating many requirements from four regulatory sections into one, while eliminating other provisions within those sections. The new section would address three topics: safety requirements outside a magazine, inside a magazine, and storing requirements. This proposal would remove unnecessary provisions and examples confusing to the public; update other provisions; and rescind two regulatory sections. The consolidated regulation would also incorporate ATF guidance authorizing alternative methods for storing explosives within containers. 2026-09-25 2026 9 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/09/25/2026-19691/explosives-magazine-safety-requirements https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-09-25/pdf/2026-19691.pdf Justice Department; Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives Bureau 268,19 The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives ("ATF") proposes amending Department of Justice ("Department") regulations to streamline requirements for maintaining structures used for storing explosives, called "magazines."

2026-19308 Merger Transactions Proposed Rule The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is inviting comment on a proposed rule that would fundamentally reform important aspects of the FDIC's approach to processing and evaluating merger transactions subject to the Bank Merger Act (BMA). Notable reforms under the proposed rule would include: accounting for credit unions and centrally booked deposits in the initial competitive effects analysis; establishing a letter filing process with "deemed approval" for "de minimis merger transactions;" tailoring other merger filing requirements to reduce burden and processing times based on the size and risk profile of a merger transaction and the attributes of the acquiring and resulting institution; limiting and clarifying the FDIC's discretion to remove a filing from expedited processing; and codifying the FDIC's reformed approach to evaluating the statutory factors under the BMA. Collectively, the revisions under the proposed rule would improve the speed, certainty, and predictability of the FDIC's bank merger framework in a manner consistent with the BMA. In addition, the proposed rule would modernize the framework to better reflect the competitive environment of the U.S. banking industry, including by tailoring it to reflect the full range of merger transactions subject to FDIC review along with reforming or eliminating outdated provisions. 2026-09-22 2026 9 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/09/22/2026-19308/merger-transactions https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-09-22/pdf/2026-19308.pdf Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 164 The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is inviting comment on a proposed rule that would fundamentally reform important aspects of the FDIC's approach to processing and evaluating merger transactions subject to the Bank Merger Act (BMA).... 3064-AG18
2026-19310 State Bank Parity Proposed Rule The FDIC is proposing amendments to its regulations to recognize parity between out-of-State State banks and national banks concerning the application of host State laws when State banks provide services outside of their chartering State. Under the proposed rule, when host State laws do not apply to a national bank, those laws would similarly not apply to an out-of-State State bank providing services in the host State with or without a branch. Specifically, the amendments would provide that, for purposes of section 24(j) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the laws of a host State apply to any branch in the host State of, or any services provided in the host State by, an out-of-State State bank to the same extent such State laws apply to a branch in the host State of, or any services provided in the host State by, an out-of-State national bank. 2026-09-22 2026 9 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/09/22/2026-19310/state-bank-parity https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-09-22/pdf/2026-19310.pdf Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 164 The FDIC is proposing amendments to its regulations to recognize parity between out-of-State State banks and national banks concerning the application of host State laws when State banks provide services outside of their chartering State.

2026-19349 Nonclinical Testing Terminology Proposed Rule The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, Agency, or we) is proposing to substitute references to "animal" tests or studies with "nonclinical" tests or studies, add a definition of the terms "nonclinical test" and "nonclinical study," and make other comparable or conforming amendments in certain safety and reporting sections of its regulations. The proposed rule would also substitute "nonclinical" for "preclinical" and "in vitro" for consistency in terminology. These proposed amendments align with recent amendments to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) and the Public Health Service Act (PHS Act) and are intended to remove an emphasis, in certain places, on the use of animal testing as the only scientific methodology to assess the safety of a drug in the nonclinical setting. These changes may also foster the development and use of scientifically valid new testing methodologies, potentially improving predictive accuracy of product safety testing while replacing, reducing, or refining animal use. The proposed rule would add no new requirements. 2026-09-22 2026 9 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/09/22/2026-19349/nonclinical-testing-terminology https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-09-22/pdf/2026-19349.pdf Health and Human Services Department; Food and Drug Administration 221,199 The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, Agency, or we) is proposing to substitute references to "animal" tests or studies with "nonclinical" tests or studies, add a definition of the terms "nonclinical test" and "nonclinical study," and make other... 0910-AJ27
