2026-09603 Alaska: Tentative Determination on Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management Program Proposed Rule The State of Alaska (Alaska or the State) has applied to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA or the Agency) for final authorization of its hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended (RCRA). The EPA has reviewed Alaska's application and made a tentative determination that Alaska's hazardous waste program satisfies all requirements for final authorization. Thus, the EPA expects to grant final authorization for the State to operate its program subject to the limitations on its authority retained by the EPA in accordance with RCRA, including the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA). If the EPA issues a final approval of Alaska's hazardous waste program, Alaska's program will operate in lieu of the Federal hazardous waste program. The EPA will retain jurisdiction and authority to implement RCRA in Indian country and areas of exclusive Federal jurisdiction in Alaska. Alaska's application for final authorization is available for public review and comment until July 2, 2026. If sufficient public interest is demonstrated, the EPA will hold a public hearing on the application June 25, 2026. The EPA intends to publish a final determination in the Federal Register within 90 days of this tentative determination. 2026-05-14 2026 5 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/14/2026-09603/alaska-tentative-determination-on-final-authorization-of-state-hazardous-waste-management-program https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-14/pdf/2026-09603.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 The State of Alaska (Alaska or the State) has applied to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA or the Agency) for final authorization of its hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended...  
2026-09604 Determination of Attainment by the Attainment Date and Clean Data Determination for the 2012 Annual Fine Particulate Standard; Plumas County, California Proposed Rule The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to determine that the Portola nonattainment area in Plumas County, California, attained the 2012 annual fine particulate matter ("PM<INF>2.5</INF>") national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS or "standard") by the December 31, 2025 "Serious" area attainment date. This proposed determination is based on ambient air quality monitoring data from 2023 through 2025. We are also proposing to make a clean data determination (CDD) based on the 2023 through 2025 data. If we finalize this CDD, certain Clean Air Act (CAA) requirements that apply to the Portola nonattainment area will be suspended for so long as the area continues to meet the 2012 annual PM<INF>2.5</INF> NAAQS. The area would remain designated nonattainment for the 2012 annual PM<INF>2.5</INF> NAAQS, unless and until the State submits, and EPA approves, a redesignation request and maintenance plan for the area. We are taking comments on this proposal and plan to follow with a final action. 2026-05-14 2026 5 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/14/2026-09604/determination-of-attainment-by-the-attainment-date-and-clean-data-determination-for-the-2012-annual https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-14/pdf/2026-09604.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to determine that the Portola nonattainment area in Plumas County, California, attained the 2012 annual fine particulate matter ("PM<INF>2.5</INF>") national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS or...

2026-09381 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Canada Limited Partnership (Type Certificate Previously Held by C Series Aircraft Limited Partnership (CSALP); Bombardier, Inc.) Airplanes Proposed Rule The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-25-05, which applies to certain Airbus Canada Limited Partnership Model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11 airplanes. AD 2022-25-05 requires repetitive cleaning and greasing of all slat tracks to prevent damage or corrosion; doing repetitive inspections of the slat tracks for any damage or corrosion, and the correct application of grease; and applicable corrective actions. Since the FAA issued AD 2022-25-05, it has been discovered that previous slat track repairs required the use of inappropriate non-destructive test (NDT) methods and, therefore, may have allowed cracks to remain undetected on slat tracks that were previously repaired. This proposed AD would continue to require the actions in AD 2022-25-05 and would require a rework NDT inspection on all slat tracks previously repaired using an inappropriate NDT method. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. 2026-05-12 2026 5 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/12/2026-09381/airworthiness-directives-airbus-canada-limited-partnership-type-certificate-previously-held-by-c https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-12/pdf/2026-09381.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-25-05, which applies to certain Airbus Canada Limited Partnership Model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11 airplanes.

2026-09383 Restoring Flexibility To Support Head Start Program Access Proposed Rule In this notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM), the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) proposes to remove requirements from the Head Start Program Performance Standards (Performance Standards) to restore local flexibility to Head Start programs and improve access to quality services. Specifically, this NPRM proposes to remove requirements related to wages and benefits that the Administration believes are not in line with the plain language of the Head Start Act and are costly and overly prescriptive for Head Start programs and staff. ACF estimates these proposed changes, if finalized, will result in over $2 billion in future cost savings for Head Start programs. The proposed rescissions in this NPRM, if finalized, would impact the costliest parts of the final rule published by the Office of Head Start (OHS) in 2024, Supporting the Head Start Workforce and Consistent Quality Programming.\1\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2026-05-12 2026 5 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/12/2026-09383/restoring-flexibility-to-support-head-start-program-access https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-12/pdf/2026-09383.pdf Health and Human Services Department; Children and Families Administration 221,49 In this notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM), the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) proposes to remove requirements from the Head Start Program Performance Standards (Performance Standards) to restore local flexibility to Head Start... 0970-AD21

2026-09428 Clearing Requirement Determination Under Section 2(h) of the Commodity Exchange Act for Interest Rate Swaps to Account for CAD and MXN Interest Rate Benchmark Transitions Proposed Rule The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (Commission or CFTC) is proposing to amend its interest rate swap clearing requirement regulations adopted under applicable provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) to address the transition from the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (CDOR) to the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (CORRA), and the transition from the Mexican Interbank Equilibrium Interest Rate (la Tasa de Inter[eacute]s Interbancaria de Equilibrio, or TIIE by its Spanish acronym) to the Overnight TIIE Funding Rate (TIIE de Fondeo or F-TIIE), as benchmark reference rates for interest rate swaps denominated, respectively, in Canadian dollars (CAD) and Mexican pesos (MXN). These transitions are part of an ongoing global effort by market participants, benchmark administrators, regulators, and others to shift away from reliance on certain interbank offered rates (IBORs) that are, or are expected to become, unavailable as benchmark reference rates, and increase adoption of alternative reference rates, which are predominantly overnight, nearly risk-free reference rates (RFRs). The proposed amendments would revise the set of interest rate swaps that are required to be submitted for clearing, pursuant to the CEA and the Commission's regulations, to a derivatives clearing organization (DCO) that is registered under the CEA (registered DCO) or a DCO that has been exempted from such registration (exempt DCO). Among other things, the proposed amendments would modify the Commission's interest rate swap clearing requirement to reflect the market transitions from CAD CDOR to CAD CORRA and from MXN TIIE to MXN F-TIIE. 2026-05-12 2026 5 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/12/2026-09428/clearing-requirement-determination-under-section-2h-of-the-commodity-exchange-act-for-interest-rate https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-12/pdf/2026-09428.pdf Commodity Futures Trading Commission 77 The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (Commission or CFTC) is proposing to amend its interest rate swap clearing requirement regulations adopted under applicable provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) to address the transition from the... 3038-AF69

2026-09157 Revising Non-Over-the-Counter Firearms Transaction Requirements Proposed Rule Federal law permits federal firearms licensees ("FFLs") to transfer firearms to a person residing in the same state but who does not appear in person.

These proposed changes would remove restrictions limiting this option to background check-exempt transfers. The proposed rule would permit FFLs to conduct NOTC transfers while complying with background check requirements and adds remote identity proofing and electronic notices to chief law enforcement officers.

The Agency issued the proposed rule to: amend the regulatory definition of hazardous waste applicable to corrective action to address releases from solid waste management units at hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facilities permitted under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and make conforming amendments related to the definition amendment; and add the statutory corrective action authorities to the section of the regulations that provides notice that the statutory definitions, rather than the regulatory definitions, apply to certain sections of the statute.

2026-08809 Veteran Readiness and Employment Program: Improving Development and Delivery of Individualized Rehabilitation Plans Proposed Rule The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend the regulations pertaining to the Veteran Readiness and Employment (VR&E) Chapter 31 program to ensure the planning of rehabilitation programs for eligible veterans and dependents is based on information from current treatment providers and not individuals on a panel who never treated the veteran or dependent. Current regulations require consultation with a panel of individuals who are not involved in the direct care or treatment of the veteran or dependent. As such consultation is not statutorily required, VA proposes to eliminate this unnecessary process, which often adds avoidable delays to veterans' access to benefits, and streamline decision-making based on providers who actually know the veteran's needs. 2026-05-06 2026 5 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/06/2026-08809/veteran-readiness-and-employment-program-improving-development-and-delivery-of-individualized https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-06/pdf/2026-08809.pdf Veterans Affairs Department 520 The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend the regulations pertaining to the Veteran Readiness and Employment (VR&E) Chapter 31 program to ensure the planning of rehabilitation programs for eligible veterans and dependents is based on... 2900-AS92

2026-08752 Safety Zones; Annual Events in the Captain of the Port Eastern Great Lakes Zone-Henderson Harbor, NY Proposed Rule The Coast Guard is proposing to amend the location of a safety zone for certain navigable waters of Henderson Harbor, NY, that is contained in a table of recurring events for the Captain of the Port Eastern Great Lakes Zone, to correct the coordinates. The coordinates that the Coast Guard previously received were inaccurate. The safety zone is needed to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment from potential hazards created by a fireworks display. This proposed rulemaking would prohibit persons and vessels from being in the safety zone unless specifically authorized by the Captain of the Port, Sector Eastern Great Lakes (COTP). We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking. 2026-05-05 2026 5 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/05/2026-08752/safety-zones-annual-events-in-the-captain-of-the-port-eastern-great-lakes-zone-henderson-harbor-ny https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-05/pdf/2026-08752.pdf Homeland Security Department; Coast Guard 227,53 The Coast Guard is proposing to amend the location of a safety zone for certain navigable waters of Henderson Harbor, NY, that is contained in a table of recurring events for the Captain of the Port Eastern Great Lakes Zone, to correct the coordinates.... 1625-AA00
2026-08593 Airworthiness Directives; ATR-GIE Avions de Transport Régional Airplanes Proposed Rule The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2023-21-10, which applies to certain ATR--GIE Avions de Transport R[eacute]gional Model ATR42-500 and ATR72-212A airplanes. AD 2023-21-10 requires an inspection of the horizontal stabilizer (HS) left- and right-hand leading edge lateral ribs, the box in between, the center box upper panel, and HS forward back-up fitting for discrepancies and applicable corrective action. Since the FAA issued AD 2023-21-10, it was determined that additional airplanes are affected and additional areas must be inspected. This proposed AD would continue to require the actions in AD 2023-21-10 and would require expanding the applicability and inspecting the HS front spar web and center box internal area for discrepancies and accomplishing applicable corrective actions. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. 2026-05-04 2026 5 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/04/2026-08593/airworthiness-directives-atr-gie-avions-de-transport-rgional-airplanes https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-04/pdf/2026-08593.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2023-21-10, which applies to certain ATR--GIE Avions de Transport R[eacute]gional Model ATR42-500 and ATR72-212A airplanes.

2026-08594 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes Proposed Rule The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus SAS Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, - 231, and -232 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by a fatigue test that identified cracks in the forward and aft upper corner of the bulk cargo door. This proposed AD would require a rototest inspection for cracks and applicable on-condition actions. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. 2026-05-04 2026 5 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/04/2026-08594/airworthiness-directives-airbus-sas-airplanes https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-04/pdf/2026-08594.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus SAS Model A320-211, -212, -214, -216, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, - 231, and -232 airplanes.
