The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is announcing the availability of a guidance for industry entitled ``Infant Formula Transition Plan for Exercise of Enforcement Discretion: Guidance for Industry.'' We are issuing this guidance document to protect public health by helping to stabilize the supply of infant formula in the United States and to maintain a consistent supply of a variety of infant formula products. Under the guidance, we intend to exercise enforcement discretion until January 6, 2023, for infant formula products that are listed in letters of enforcement discretion that FDA has issued or will issue to specific manufacturers, in response to information provided under our May 2022 ``Infant Formula Enforcement Discretion Policy: Guidance for Industry,'' which remains in effect until November 14, 2022.

This guidance document will help infant formula manufacturers meet applicable regulatory requirements while ensuring that consumers have continued access to formulas that are currently fulfilling the needs of infants consuming such products. We are also announcing that a proposed collection of information has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and clearance under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA). The proposed collection pertains to the submission of information necessary to facilitate FDA's exercise of enforcement discretion, as discussed in the guidance document.

These special conditions are issued for the Textron Aviation Inc. (Textron) Model 680A Latitude airplane, as modified by Aerospace Quality Research and Development (AQRD). These airplanes will have a novel or unusual design feature when compared to the state of technology envisioned in the airworthiness standards for transport- category airplanes. This design feature is the installation of two rechargeable lithium batteries and battery system that will replace two nickel-cadmium batteries previously installed on the airplane. 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.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving a portion of a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision to the Mecklenburg County portion of the North Carolina SIP, hereinafter referred to as the Mecklenburg County Local Implementation Plan (LIP). The revision was submitted through the North Carolina Division of Air Quality (NCDAQ), on behalf of Mecklenburg County Air Quality (MCAQ), via a letter dated April 24, 2020, which was received by EPA on June 19, 2020. This SIP revision includes changes to Mecklenburg County Air Pollution Control Ordinance (MCAPCO) rules incorporated into the LIP regarding Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) permitting to address changes to the Federal new source review (NSR) regulations in recent years. EPA is approving these changes pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act).

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), propose to list the Lassics lupine (Lupinus constancei), a plant species native to northern California, as an endangered species and designate critical habitat under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). This determination also serves as our 12-month finding on a petition to list the Lassics lupine. After a review of the best available scientific and commercial information, we find that listing the species is warranted. If we finalize this rule as proposed, it would add this species to the List of Endangered and Threatened Plants and extend the Act's protections to the species. We also propose to designate critical habitat for the Lassics lupine under the Act. In total, approximately 512 acres (ac) (207 hectares (ha)) in Humboldt and Trinity Counties, California, fall within the boundaries of the proposed critical habitat designation. In addition, we announce the availability of a draft economic analysis (DEA) of the proposed designation of critical habitat for the Lassics lupine.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) proposes to revise its regulations to provide incentive-based rate treatments for the transmission of electric energy in interstate commerce and the sale of electric energy at wholesale in interstate commerce by utilities for the purpose of benefitting consumers by encouraging investments by utilities in advanced cybersecurity technology and participation by utilities in cybersecurity threat information sharing programs, as directed by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 (Infrastructure and Jobs Act). This notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) also terminates the NOPR proceeding in Docket No. RM21-3-000 (December 2020 Cybersecurity Incentives NOPR).

This action finalizes amendments to the national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) at major sources from new and existing industrial, commercial, and institutional (ICI) boilers and process heaters. Certain aspects of these standards were challenged and subsequently remanded to the Agency by the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (D.C. Circuit). This action finalizes amendments to several numeric emission limits for new and existing boilers and process heaters consistent with the court's opinion and sets compliance dates for these new emission limits. This action also provides further explanation of one aspect of the Agency's use of carbon monoxide (CO) as a surrogate for organic hazardous air pollutants (HAP) and its use of a CO threshold to represent the application of the maximum achievable control technology (MACT) for organic HAP. We are also finalizing several technical clarifications and corrections.

The Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) of the Department of Energy (DOE) gives notice (Notice) of receipt of an application (Application), filed on September 9, 2022, by NFE Altamira FLNG, S. de R.L. de C.V. (NFE Altamira). NFE Altamira requests long- term, multi-contract authorization to export domestically produced natural gas by pipeline to Mexico in a volume up to 158 billion cubic feet (Bcf) per year (Bcf/yr), and to re-export 145 Bcf/yr of this natural gas as liquefied natural gas (LNG). NFE Altamira seeks to re- export this LNG by vessel from a proposed floating liquefaction and export terminal project, the Altamira FLNG Project (Project), to be located off the coast of Altamira Tamaulipas, Mexico, in the Gulf of Mexico. NFE Altamira filed the Application under section 3 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA).

The U.S. Department of Energy (``DOE'') is initiating an effort to determine whether to amend the current energy conservation standards for metal halide lamp fixtures (``MHLF''). On October 25, 2021, DOE published a final determination concluding that energy conservation standards for MHLFs do not need to be amended because they are not economically justified. No later than 3 years after such a determination, under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act, as amended, DOE must periodically review these standards and publish either a notice of proposed rulemaking (``NOPR'') to propose new standards for MHLFs or a notification of determination that the existing standards do not need to be amended. This request for information (``RFI'') solicits information from the public to help DOE determine whether amended standards for MHLFs would result in significant energy savings and whether such standards would be technologically feasible and economically justified. As part of this RFI, DOE seeks comment on technological and market changes since the most recent standards update to consider in its evaluation of more stringent standards. DOE also welcomes written comments from the public on any subject within the scope of this document (including those topics not specifically raised), as well as the submission of data and other relevant information.
