Importation of Horses From Contagious Equine Metritis-Affected Countries
On March 25, 2011, we published an interim rule in the Federal Register to amend the regulations regarding the importation of horses from countries affected with contagious equine metritis (CEM) by incorporating an additional certification requirement for imported horses 731 days of age or less and adding new testing protocols for test mares and imported stallions and mares more than 731 days of age. That interim rule became effective on March 25, 2011; however, we are delaying the enforcement of the interim rule until July 25, 2011. This action is necessary to provide CEM testing facilities time to make adjustments to their operating procedures that are necessary for the rule to be successfully implemented.

Notice of Final Determination Revising the List of Products Requiring Federal Contractor Certification as to Forced or Indentured Child Labor Pursuant to Executive Order 13126
This final determination revises the list required by Executive Order No. 13126 (``Prohibition of Acquisition of Products Produced by Forced or Indentured Child Labor''), in accordance with the ``Procedural Guidelines for the Maintenance of the List of Products Requiring Federal Contractor Certification as to Forced or Indentured Child Labor.'' This notice adds a product, hand-woven textiles from Ethiopia, to the list that the Departments of Labor, State and Homeland Security believe might have been mined, produced, or manufactured by forced or indentured child labor. This notice also removes charcoal from Brazil from the list, as the Departments of Labor, State and Homeland Security have a reasonable basis to believe that the use of forced or indentured child labor has been significantly reduced. Under a final rule of the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Councils, published January 18, 2001, which also implements Executive Order No. 13126, federal contractors who supply products on this list are required to certify, among other things, that they have made a good faith effort to determine whether forced or indentured child labor was used to produce the item.
Special Conditions: Bombardier Model BD-700-1A10 and BD-700-1A11 Airplanes, Head-up Display (HUD) With Video Synthetic Vision System (SVS)

The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. These 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.
Federal Family Education Loan Program
The Secretary invites guaranty agencies with agreements to participate in the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program to submit proposals to enter into a Voluntary Flexible Agreement (VFA) with the Secretary, as authorized by section 428A of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA). Guaranty agencies whose proposals are accepted will operate under the requirements of the VFA in lieu of the guaranty agency agreements established under sections 428(b) and (c) of the HEA. The intent of this invitation is for the Secretary to receive proposals from guaranty agencies or from teams of guaranty agencies, that will lead to the development of VFAs that will enhance the integrity and stability of the FFEL Program, improve services to students, schools and lenders, and use Federal resources more cost- effectively and efficiently. The Secretary is particularly interested in receiving proposals that eliminate poorly aligned incentives in the current guaranty agency structure as well as the conflicts of interest that may potentially exist when a guaranty agency is responsible for both default prevention and default collections. The Secretary invites the submission of either individual proposals from a single guaranty agency or joint proposals from teams of guaranty agencies. However, under the Secretary's planned reorganization of guaranty agency responsibilities, as described in the ``Scope of the VFAs'' section of this notice, it is likely that joint proposals would result in greater efficiencies and ease of implementation. A joint proposal, if approved, will result in separate, but complementary, VFAs for each of the agencies in the team. A guaranty agency may submit more than one proposal in response to this notice. However, an agency will have only one VFA, that could provide that the agency assume a number of different guaranty agency activities as described in the GA Responsibility Areas section of this notice. This notice provides information on the scope and conditions of VFA proposals that the Secretary is seeking, the procedures for the submission of VFA proposals, the information that must be included in a VFA proposal submitted in response to this notice, and the steps the Secretary will take when finalizing a VFA.
