The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, "the Agency") is proposing to amend the procedural framework rule for conducting existing chemical risk evaluations under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). When conducting an existing chemical risk evaluation under TSCA, EPA must determine whether a chemical substance presents an unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment, without consideration of costs or non-risk factors, including unreasonable risk to a potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulation identified as relevant to the risk evaluation, under the conditions of use. In this action, EPA proposes to rescind or revise certain 2024 amendments to the procedural framework rule to effectuate the best reading of the statute and ensure that the procedural framework rule does not impede the timely completion of risk evaluations or impair the effective and efficient protection of health and the environment.
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) proposes to approve four new definitions and 18 modified definitions in the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Glossary of Terms Used in Reliability Standards.

The Coast Guard will enforce a safety zone for a series of barge-based fireworks displays on September 20, 2025, October 30, 2025, and December 31, 2025, to provide for the safety of life on navigable waterways during the displays. Our regulation for marine events within the Great Lakes Coast Guard District identified the safety zone for this event in Chicago, IL. During the enforcement period, entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the safety zone is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port (COTP) Lake Michigan or a designated on-scene representative.

FinCEN is proposing to amend the Anti-Money Laundering/ Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) Program and Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) Filing Requirements for Registered Investment Advisers and Exempt Reporting Advisers (IA AML Rule) to delay the effective date by two years. The IA AML Rule is effective on January 1, 2026. This proposal seeks to amend the effective date to January 1, 2028.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is issuing a direct final rule to revise a requirement for contracting officers. The requirement updates special contracting methods, transferring the approval authority for certain contracting actions from the Service Center Manager (SCM) to the Head of the Contracting Activity (HCA). This change reflects an internal reorganization of EPA's contracting functions and aims to enhance efficiency and streamline decision-making within the Agency. Because this amendment only affects EPA contracting officers, we expect no adverse impact on the public and are proceeding with a direct final rule.

The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary safety zone for certain waters of the Atlantic Ocean near the Wrightsville Beach, NC waterfront. This action is necessary to provide for the safety of life on these navigable waters during an air show, consisting of civilian and military aircraft flyovers, on October 02, 2025. This rule prohibits persons and vessels from being in the safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of the Port, Sector North Carolina or a designated representative.
This document contains proposed regulations that identify occupations that customarily and regularly received tips on or before December 31, 2024, and provide a definition of "qualified tips" for purposes of the income tax deduction for qualified tips.

The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) is making permanent, with two changes, temporary regulations published in the Federal Register on September 23, 2022, relating to reduced excise tax rates and tax credits for imported distilled spirits, wines, and beer. These regulatory amendments implement changes made to the Internal Revenue Code by the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020, which amended the Craft Beverage Modernization Act provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. This rule finalizes the procedures for industry members to claim limited reduced tax rates and tax credits for imported alcohol products that are entered for consumption in the United States. Specifically, this rule finalizes provisions in a temporary rule that outlines the process for foreign producers to assign reduced tax rates and tax credits to importers, and for importers to accept and apply the assigned tax benefits to imported products. This final rule clarifies that only the foreign producer who produces the product may assign the applicable tax benefits on distilled spirits, wine, or beer to U.S. importers, and extends by one calendar quarter the timeframe for those foreign producers to submit these assignments to TTB.

The Coast Guard is proposing to establish a temporary safety zone for the Ohio River, from mile marker 2 to mile marker 3.

This document proposes to amend the Table of TV Allotments (table) of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules by substituting channel *33 for *8 at Hutchinson, Kansas in response to a Petition for Rulemaking filed by Kansas Public Telecommunications Service, Inc. (Kansas Public or Licensee), the licensee of noncommercial educational PBS member television station KPTS(TV) (KPTS or Station) channel *8, Hutchinson, Kansas (Hutchinson). In support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner asserts that allowing the Station to move from a VHF to a UHF channel would serve the public interest by improving signal reception for viewers. The staff engineering analysis finds that the proposal is in compliance with the Commission's principal community coverage and technical requirements. The proposed channel change is predicted to result in service to more viewers, both through better signal quality and an expanded coverage area.
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Helicopters Model H160-B helicopters modified by Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) SR00223IB. This proposed AD was prompted by a report that several self-locking nuts of the window jettisoning system could be loosened by hand due to a non-conformity in the cable kit. This proposed AD would require modifying an affected window into a serviceable window. This proposed AD would also prohibit installing an affected window on any helicopter modified with STC SR00223IB. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

The assessment rate will remain in effect indefinitely unless modified, suspended, or terminated.

The Department of the Treasury (Treasury) is issuing this advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) to solicit public comment on questions relating to the implementation of the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act. The GENIUS Act tasks Treasury (and various other federal agencies) with issuing regulations that encourage innovation in payment stablecoins while also providing an appropriately tailored regime to protect consumers, mitigate potential illicit finance risks, and address financial stability risks. Through this ANPRM, Treasury is seeking public comment on potential regulations that may be promulgated by Treasury, including regarding regulatory clarity, prohibitions on certain issuances and marketing, Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) anti-money laundering (AML) and sanctions obligations, the balance of state-level oversight with federal oversight, comparable foreign regulatory and supervisory regimes, and tax issues, among other things. Treasury is seeking comment on all aspects of the ANPRM from all interested parties and also requests commenters to identify other issues that Treasury should consider.
