Rescission of the Greenhouse Gas Findings for Fossil Fuel-Fired Power Plants and Repeal of Regulations for Power Plant Greenhouse Gas Emissions Under Clean Air Act Section 111

In this action, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is supplementing its proposal to repeal all greenhouse gas (GHG) emission standards for fossil fuel-fired electric generating units (EGUs) to effectuate the best reading of Clean Air Act (CAA) section 111. We propose that CAA section 111 does not authorize the EPA to regulate emissions from power plants in response to global climate change concerns. For the multiple and independent reasons described herein, this additional rationale would also require rescinding the Administrator's contrary findings and determinations in 2015 and repealing all associated 2015 and 2024 GHG standards for the fossil fuel-fired EGU source category. In a separate action published concurrently with this supplemental notice, the EPA is finalizing the repeal of certain 2024 GHG standards for the fossil fuel-fired EGU source category on distinct legal and technical grounds. We are not reopening that final rule. Nor are we soliciting further comment on those issues through this supplemental notice, except to the extent that commenters believe the final rule bears on the distinct questions of statutory authority addressed herein.

Partial Repeal of the Carbon Pollution Standards for Fossil Fuel-Fired Electric Generating Units

In this final rule, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is repealing most provisions of the 2024 Carbon Pollution Standards for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from fossil fuel-fired electric generating units (EGUs) based on a reevaluation of the best system of emission reduction for the relevant subcategories. Specifically, the EPA is repealing the emission guidelines for existing fossil fuel-fired steam generating units, the carbon capture and sequestration/storage (CCS)-based standards for coal-fired steam generating units undertaking a large modification, and the CCS-based standards for new base load stationary combustion turbines (i.e., Phase 2 standards). In a separate action published concurrently with this final rule, the EPA is issuing a supplemental proposal soliciting comment on additional reasons to rescind all GHG emission requirements for fossil fuel-fired EGUs to effectuate the best reading of Clean Air Act (CAA) section 111 and ensure consistency with applicable principles of administrative law beyond those reasons on which the EPA solicited comment in the June 2025 notice of proposed rulemaking.

RIN 2120-AA64

The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain CFM International, S.A. (CFM) Model CFM56-5B, CFM56-5C, and CFM56-7B engines with a certain high-pressure turbine (HPT) inner stationary seal installed. This proposed AD was prompted by multiple reports of honeycomb separation from the surface of HPT inner stationary seals. This proposed AD would require initial and repetitive borescope inspections (BSIs) of the rotating air HPT front seal for cracks and, depending on the results, replacement with a part eligible for installation. This proposed AD would also require removal and replacement of the affected HPT inner stationary seal. This proposed AD would also require inspection of the affected HPT inner stationary seal for honeycomb separation and, depending on the results of the inspection, removal and replacement of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Eliminating the Discretionary 60-Day Grace Period

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to remove regulations at 8 CFR 214.1(l)(2) to restore its previous and long- standing policy of not providing aliens in certain nonimmigrant classifications (and their dependents) with an up to 60-day grace period upon cessation of employment prior to the expiration of the alien's authorized period of stay. This proposal restores a direct relationship between an alien's nonimmigrant status and the specific employment or activity that formed the basis of his or her admission or grant of status in the United States and reduces administrative burden.

Medicaid Program; Prohibition on Federal Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program Funding for Sex-Rejecting Procedures Furnished to Children

This final rule requires that a State Medicaid plan must provide that the Medicaid agency will not make payment under the plan for sex-rejecting procedures for children under 18, and prohibits the use of Federal Medicaid dollars to fund sex-rejecting procedures for individuals under the age of 18. In addition, this final rule requires that a separate State Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) plan must provide that the CHIP agency will not make payment under the plan for sex-rejecting procedures for children under 19, and prohibits the use of Federal CHIP dollars to fund sex-rejecting procedures for individuals under the age of 19. For Medicaid and CHIP beneficiaries who are actively receiving cross-sex hormone therapy, State Medicaid and CHIP agencies may continue to claim Federal Financial Participation for those hormone therapy medications for a period of up to 6 months from the effective date of this final rule.

Draft NIH Biosafety Policy for Research Involving Biohazards

As the world's largest public funder of biomedical research, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is committed to ensuring that gold-standard science is conducted under gold-standard biosafety conditions. To achieve this goal, NIH is proposing a new policy that modernizes and strengthens biosafety practices to ensure that oversight keeps pace with evolving risks. NIH is requesting public input on a new, comprehensive biosafety policy proposal that, when finalized, will replace the current NIH Guidelines for Research Involving Recombinant or Synthetic Nucleic Acid Molecules (https://osp.od.nih.gov/wp-content/ uploads/NIH_Guidelines.pdf).

Gastroenterology-Urology Devices; Reclassification of Diagnostic Endoscopic Light Source Systems To Be Renamed Cystoscopic Systems Intended as an Aid for Detection of Bladder Cancer

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to reclassify diagnostic endoscopic light source systems (product code OAY), which are postamendments class III devices, from class III (premarket approval) into class II (special controls), subject to premarket notification. FDA is also proposing a new device classification regulation with the name "Cystoscopic system intended as an aid for detection of bladder cancer," along with special controls that FDA believes are necessary to provide a reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of these devices.

Improving the Effectiveness of the Robocall Mitigation Database; Call Authentication Trust Anchor; Advanced Methods To Target and Eliminate Unlawful Robocalls

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes steps to strengthen the reliability, integrity, and effectiveness of the Robocall Mitigation Database (RMD or Database) as a core component of its illegal-call prevention framework. The Commission proposed measures aim to ensure that RMD filings are accurate, complete, and current, and to safeguard the Database so that only legitimate, transparent, and accountable providers may enter or remain listed. Specifically, the Commission proposes and seeks comment on measures to clarify which entities are required to file in the RMD, enhance the accuracy and completeness of submitted information, and specify which portions of filings may be publicly disclosed. Additionally, the Commission proposes and seeks comment on new tools to prevent bad actors and noncompliant providers from accessing or remaining in the RMD, including strengthened screening procedures for new filers, improved mechanisms for identifying noncompliant providers, expedited removal processes, and safeguards to prevent unauthorized re- entry into the Database.
