August 29, 2022 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In compliance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) is soliciting public comment on the currently approved information collection FERC-577 (Natural Gas Facilities: Environmental Review and Compliance).

The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus SAS Model A350-1041 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by a report of rejected take-offs after transient engine N1 shaft speed exceedance. This proposed AD would require replacing certain hydro-mechanical units (HMUs) with serviceable HMUs before reaching a reduced life limit, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed for incorporation by reference. This proposed AD would also limit the installation of affected parts under certain conditions. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

This action corrects a final rule published by the FAA in the Federal Register on July 14, 2022, that establishes United States Area Navigation (RNAV) route T-381 in the vicinity of Big Lake, AK, in support of a large and comprehensive T-route modernization project for the state of Alaska. The final rule identified the GLOWS, AK, route point as a waypoint (WP), in error. This action makes an editorial correction to the reference of the GLOWS, AK, WP to change it to be reflected as a Fix and match the FAA's aeronautical database information.

This action establishes United States Area Navigation (RNAV) route T-369 in the vicinity of Bethel, AK, in support of a large and comprehensive T-route modernization project for the state of Alaska.

This action amends United States Area Navigation (RNAV) route T-235 in the vicinity of Atqasuk, AK, in support of a large and comprehensive T-route modernization project for the state of Alaska.

The FDIC, as part of its obligations under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the renewal of the existing information collection described below (OMB Control No. 3064-0211).

The Department of Labor (DOL) is submitting this Employment and Training Administration (ETA)-sponsored information collection request (ICR) to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA). Public comments on the ICR are invited.

The International Joint Commission (IJC) announced today that it is inviting public comment on the final report of its International Lake Champlain-Richelieu River Study Board's (LCRRSB) Flood Study Final Report. The study explores the causes, impacts, risks, and solutions for flooding in Lake Champlain and the Richelieu River. Comments will be accepted at public hearings, webinars, and by mail, email and on- line through September 30, 2022. The LCRRSB's full report can be found on the IJC website at: www.ijc.org/lcrr.

In conformance with the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) announces the appointment of persons to serve as members of its Performance Review Board (PRB).

We are finalizing our proposal to delay the current start date of the RO Model to a date to be determined through future rulemaking, and to modify the definition of the model performance period to provide that the start and end dates of the model performance period for the RO Model will be established in future rulemaking.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, we, or the Agency) is amending the regulations for food additives permitted in feed and drinking water of animals to provide for the safe use of fumonisin esterase to degrade fumonisins present in poultry feed. This action is in response to a food additive petition filed by Biomin Holding GmbH.

The Department of Defense (DoD) is publishing this notice to announce the following Federal Advisory Committee meeting of the Board of Visitors (BoV) of the Air University.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing the availability of and requesting public comment on a draft revision to the risk determination for the carbon tetrachloride risk evaluation issued under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). The draft revision to the carbon tetrachloride risk determination reflects the announced policy changes to ensure the public is protected from unreasonable risks from chemicals in a way that is supported by science and the law. In this draft revision to the risk determination EPA finds that carbon tetrachloride, as a whole chemical substance, presents an unreasonable risk of injury to health when evaluated under its conditions of use. In addition, this draft revised risk determination does not reflect an assumption that all workers always appropriately wear personal protective equipment (PPE). EPA understands that there could be occupational safety protections in place at workplace locations; however, not assuming use of PPE reflects EPA's recognition that unreasonable risk may exist for subpopulations of workers that may be highly exposed because they are not covered by the standards set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), or their employers are out of compliance with OSHA standards, or because many of OSHA's chemical-specific permissible exposure limits largely adopted in the 1970's are described by OSHA as being ``outdated and inadequate for ensuring protection of worker health.'' This revision, when final, would supersede the condition of use-specific no unreasonable risk determinations in the 2020 Carbon Tetrachloride Risk Evaluation (and withdraw the associated order) and would make a revised determination of unreasonable risk for carbon tetrachloride as a whole chemical substance.

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is withdrawing a proposed rule that was published in the Federal Register on April 11, 2022, which proposed to place two phenethylamine hallucinogens in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act. DEA is withdrawing the proposed rule, terminating all proceedings related thereto, and will be publishing a new proposed rule using an amended procedure.

The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary safety zone for navigable waters within a 1,000 foot radius of the deadship tow of the Battleship Texas while it transits from its current location at San Jacinto Park on the Houston Ship Channel to its drydock location on the Galveston Channel. The safety zone is needed to ensure the safety of other waterway users. Entry of vessels or persons into this zone is prohibited unless specifically authorized by the Captain of the Port Houston-Galveston. Tug and barge traffic will be authorized to transit through the safety zone in the barge lanes, with no meeting or overtaking of other tug and barge traffic, with Vessel Traffic Service approval.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announce the extension of the comment period for the proposed rule entitled ``Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) Fees; Histocompatibility, Personnel, and Alternative Sanctions for Certificate of Waiver Laboratories.''
