Implementation of the DTV Delay Act
In this document, the Commission takes the first step to implement the DTV Delay Act by; extending the dates in analog television licenses and digital television construction permits to reflect the statutory change of the nationwide DTV transition date from February 17, 2009 to June 12, 2009; and; delegating authority to the Media Bureau to rule on the filings stations made in connection with their requests for restoration of the partial waiver permitting them to terminate analog service on February 17, 2009.
Technical Amendment to List of User Fee Airports: Addition of St. Augustine Airport, St. Augustine, FL
This document amends the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Regulations by revising the list of user fee airports to reflect the recent user fee airport designation for St. Augustine Airport in St. Augustine, Florida.

Medicare Program; Changes to the Competitive Acquisition of Certain Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics and Supplies (DMEPOS) by Certain Provisions of the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act of 2008 (MIPPA)
In accordance with the memorandum of January 20, 2009, from the Assistant to the President and Chief of Staff, entitled ``Regulatory Review Plan,'' this action temporarily delays for 60 days the effective date of the final rule entitled ``Medicare Program; Changes to the Competitive Acquisition of Certain Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics and Supplies (DMEPOS) by Certain Provisions of the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act of 2008 (MIPPA)'' published in the January 16, 2009 Federal Register (74 FR 2873). The temporary 60-day delay in effective date is necessary to give Department officials the opportunity for further review of the issues of law and policy raised by this rule.

Schedule for Rating Disabilities; Eye; Correction
This document contains a minor correction to the final regulations that the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) published at 73 FR 66543 on November 10, 2008.

Interactive Data for Mutual Fund Risk/Return Summary
We are adopting rule amendments requiring mutual funds to provide risk/return summary information in a form that is intended to improve its usefulness to investors. Under the rules, risk/return summary information could be downloaded directly into spreadsheets, analyzed in a variety of ways using commercial off-the-shelf software, and used within investment models in other software formats. Mutual funds will provide the risk/return summary section of their prospectuses to the Commission and on their Web sites in interactive data format using the eXtensible Business Reporting Language (``XBRL''). The interactive data will be provided as exhibits to registration statements and as exhibits to prospectuses with risk/ return summary information that varies from the registration statement. The rules are intended not only to make risk/return summary information easier for investors to analyze but also to assist in automating regulatory filings and business information processing. Interactive data has the potential to increase the speed, accuracy, and usability of mutual fund disclosure, and eventually reduce costs. We also are adopting rules to permit investment companies to submit portfolio holdings information in our interactive data voluntary program without being required to submit other financial information.

Establishment of Class D Airspace; Branson, MO

Revocation of Class E Airspace; Altus AFB, OK

Republication of the lists of market dominant and competitive products is also consistent with new requirements in the law.
