Revisions to the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 5) for Public Water Systems and Announcement of Public Meetings
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is finalizing a Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) rule that requires certain public water systems (PWSs) to collect national occurrence data for 29 per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and lithium. Subject to the availability of appropriations, EPA will include all systems serving 3,300 or more people and a representative sample of 800 systems serving 25 to 3,299 people. If EPA does not receive the appropriations needed for monitoring all of these systems in a given year, EPA will reduce the number of systems serving 25 to 10,000 people that will be asked to perform monitoring. This final rule is a key action to ensure science- based decision-making and prioritize protection of disadvantaged communities in accordance with EPA's PFAS Strategic Roadmap. EPA is also announcing plans for public webinars to discuss implementation of the fifth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 5).

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2020-26-01, which applies to all Airbus SAS Model A318-111, -112, -121, and -122 airplanes; Model A319-111, -112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132, and -133 airplanes; and Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes. AD 2020-26-01 requires repetitive general visual inspections of the affected main landing gear (MLG) sliding tubes for cracks and replacement if necessary. Since the FAA issued AD 2020-26- 01, additional parts and additional airplane models have been identified that may also have been subject to an improper overhaul and are therefore unsafe. This proposed AD would require repetitive general visual inspections of the affected MLG sliding tubes (both retained affected parts and additional affected parts) for cracks and replacement if necessary, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed for incorporation by reference. This proposed AD would also add airplanes to the applicability. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Canada Limited Partnership (Type Certificate Previously Held by C Series Aircraft Limited Partnership (CSALP); Bombardier, Inc.) Airplanes
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Canada Limited Partnership Model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500- 1A11 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of in-service findings of corrosion on the flange of the main landing gear (MLG) lower spindle pin. This proposed AD would require repetitive inspections of the left and right MLG lower spindle pins to detect corrosion, and applicable repair or replacement if necessary, as specified in a Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA) AD, which is proposed for incorporation by reference. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Proposed Amendment and Removal of Air Traffic Service (ATS) Routes; Eastern United States

In accordance with the Clean Air Act, as amended (CAA or the Act), notice is given of a proposed consent decree in Center for Biological Diversity, et al. v. Regan, No. 4:21-cv-06166-JST. On August 11, 2021, Plaintiffs Center for Biological Diversity, Center for Environmental Health, and Sierra Club (collectively ``Plaintiffs'') filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Plaintiffs alleged that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) failed to perform certain non- discretionary duties in accordance with the Act to promulgate final actions for two nonattainment areas under the 2010 1-hour primary sulfur dioxide (SO2) national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS): A final federal implementation plan (FIP) for the Detroit, Michigan SO2 nonattainment area, and approval or disapproval of the state implementation plan (SIP) for the Baltimore and Anne Arundel Counties, Maryland SO2 nonattainment area. The proposed consent decree would establish deadlines for EPA to take these actions.

Following review of comments submitted and consultation as required under the law, CDC has finalized the materials. By March 31, 2022, all healthcare providers must discontinue use of the previous editions and provide copies of these updated vaccine information materials prior to immunization.
