The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new rule that would require changes to maintenance programs for certain MHI RJ Aviation airplanes, previously certified under Bombardier. The rule stems from Canada's findings that new, stricter maintenance tasks are needed to ensure the airplanes remain safe. The FAA is asking for public comments on the proposal by April 21, 2025. This proposed rule aims to prevent reduced structural integrity and airplane controllability by updating the maintenance programs based on Canadian regulations.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is proposing a new rule that would allow states to waive the hazardous materials endorsement requirement for drivers with a Class A commercial driver's license who transport up to 1,000 gallons of aviation jet fuel for agricultural operations. This change aims to help agricultural aviation companies, especially those in remote areas, by making it easier to find drivers to deliver jet fuel, thus supporting these businesses' efficiency. The proposal may lead to cost savings for both drivers and agricultural operators, without reducing safety, as these operations typically occur in low-traffic rural areas. Public comments on the proposal are being accepted until February 3, 2025.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced that Nasdaq PHLX LLC has proposed a new rule to allow the listing and trading of options based on 1/100th of the Nasdaq-100 Index, known as Nasdaq 100 Micro Index Options (XND).

Similar to existing options, XND options will be European-style and cash-settled, but will require less capital, making them more accessible. The SEC is soliciting public comments on this proposed rule change before making a final decision.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing to amend a section of Jet Route J-96 in the airspace near Cimarron, New Mexico. This change is due to navigation issues that have made part of the route unusable since 2020. The proposal would remove the segment of the route between the Cimarron and Garden City, Kansas, navigational aids. This adjustment is not expected to negatively affect air traffic, as alternative routes are available for pilots.

The Coast Guard, as part of the Department of Homeland Security, has established a temporary safety zone on the Potomac River between the 14th Street Bridge and the Woodrow Wilson Bridge. This safety zone is in response to a midair collision between a jet and a helicopter near Reagan Washington National Airport, which resulted in the jet landing in the river. The safety zone is effective from February 7 to February 21, 2025, to protect first responders, vessels, and the public from hazards such as debris and jet fuel. Entry into this zone is prohibited without authorization from the Captain of the Port (COTP) Maryland-National Capital Region or their representative.

The Securities and Exchange Commission published a notice for an application seeking exemption from certain requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940. This exemption would allow ETF Series Solutions and Distillate Capital Partners LLC to make changes to sub-advisory agreements without needing shareholder approval and to consolidate fee disclosures. The goal is to enable the investment adviser to select and manage sub-advisers more efficiently, benefiting the shareholders by potentially reducing costs. Additionally, the application outlines conditions to protect shareholder interests and seeks to maintain transparency by informing shareholders of significant changes via a streamlined notification process.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has established new greenhouse gas (GHG) emission standards for specific types of airplanes and their engines, aligning with international standards set by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). These standards apply to certain civil jet and larger propeller airplanes, aiming to reduce air pollution and meet the 2016 findings on aircraft emissions. The rule covers new type design airplanes from 2021 and in-production airplanes from 2028, but will not require major changes since most airplanes will already comply with the standards. This action helps U.S. airplane manufacturers remain competitive internationally by ensuring their products meet global emission requirements.

The Cboe Exchange, Inc. has proposed a rule change to allow the listing and trading of index options with a smaller index multiplier of one, known as "micro-options." This change aims to make it easier for retail investors to access the market by providing lower-priced options, reflecting 1/100th of the value of current index options. The micro-options are designed to expand investor choices by allowing more precise hedging strategies, especially for smaller investments. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is inviting public comments on this proposal to evaluate its impact and ensure it aligns with the rules of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
