Special Conditions: Skyryse, Robinson Helicopter Company Model R66 Helicopter; Control Margin Awareness
This action proposes special conditions for the Robinson Helicopter Company (Robinson) Model R66 helicopter. This helicopter, as modified by Skyryse, will have a novel or unusual design feature when compared to the state of technology envisioned in the airworthiness standards for normal category helicopters. This design feature replaces the mechanical flight controls with a digital fly-by-wire FBW system. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. These proposed special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.

Passports: Expanding Online Passport Renewal Overseas
The Department proposes to amend 22 CFR 51.21 by consolidating requirements for persons applying by mail and online in the United States and overseas.

Finally, the Department is proposing technical corrections to 51.8(b) to change "on-line" to read "online" for consistency.
Requests for Arbitration Panels
The Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) is issuing an interim final rule with requests for comments to amend its arbitration services regulations. The interim final rule clarifies the circumstances in which the Office of Arbitration (OA) may decline to issue an arbitration panel, make a direct appointment, or provide related arbitration services. The rule would remove language that could be read to require FMCS to honor every unilateral request for an arbitration panel, regardless of legal constraints or FMCS's authority. Due to a technical error, FMCS is reposting this IFR and extending the deadline for comments to 30 days from the date of publication in the Federal Register. FMCS seeks public comment on this interim final rule.

Federal Sector Equal Employment Opportunity
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) proposes revising Federal sector EEO complaint rules to streamline processing, improve effectiveness, and implement the Cummings Act. The rule would end mandatory pre complaint counseling and remove the option to request administrative judge proceedings before a final agency decision. Complainants could seek such proceedings only on appeal, and the EEOC would order them only when necessary or efficient. The rule would bar administrative class complaint adjudication while preserving putative class assertions for exhaustion. The rule also allows joint processing of related individual complaints and updates pleading standards, mixed case procedures, attorney fee provisions, and required reports.
