    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has announced that it will not enforce a rule regarding drug and alcohol testing for repair station employees outside the United States until March 20, 2025. This decision follows a final rule issued in December 2024, intended to clarify certain aspects of the original rule published earlier that month. The delay in enforcement is to allow time for further review to ensure the rule complies with existing laws and policies. The FAA's announcement follows a broader governmental directive to hold off on implementing new rules pending further examination.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA, a part of the government that looks after airplanes, has decided not to start checking if people who fix planes in other countries are using drugs or alcohol until March 20, 2025. They are doing this to make sure the rules make sense and are fair.

    The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has finalized a rule to remove certain regulations that were transferred from the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) to the FDIC in 2011 under the Dodd-Frank Act. These regulations mainly dealt with the supervision of State savings associations. The final rule, effective March 5, 2021, aims to simplify regulations by rescinding unnecessary ones and making technical changes so that State savings associations follow similar filing requirements as other FDIC-supervised institutions. The FDIC expects these changes to have minimal impact on the affected institutions.

    Simple Explanation

    The FDIC decided to remove some old rules they got from another agency in 2011 and make things simpler for certain banks, so they all follow similar rules. This change is like tidying up, and it shouldn't make a big difference to the banks involved.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new rule for all Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. Model PC-7 airplanes. This rule addresses an identified unsafe condition concerning a missing screw on a harness shoulder strap buckle that could lead to loss of pilot restraint and potential loss of airplane control or crew injury. Effective February 12, 2021, it requires inspections and potential repairs or replacements of the affected parts to ensure safety. The FAA invites comments on this rule until March 29, 2021, and has deemed the situation urgent enough to forgo the usual public comment period prior to enacting the rule.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA found that some small Pilatus airplanes might have a loose part on the seatbelt, which could make it unsafe for the pilot and others on the plane. So, they made a rule that owners must check and fix this to make sure everyone stays safe in the air.

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has announced a new rule requiring cable, wireless, wireline, and VoIP providers to report the status of their infrastructure daily during emergencies. This rule involves using the Disaster Information Reporting System (DIRS) and replaces older voluntary reporting practices with mandatory ones, stemming from the increased frequency of natural disasters. The aim is to ensure better communication and infrastructure restoration during such events. The rule goes into effect on February 20, 2025, following approval from the Office of Management and Budget.

    Simple Explanation

    The FCC made a new rule saying that companies who help us talk on phones or the internet have to tell the government every day if their stuff is working, especially when there's a big storm or emergency, to help fix things faster.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule that shifts the compliance deadline for individuals with foreign addresses applying for certain aviation certificates, ratings, or authorizations to designate a U.S. agent for service. Originally set for January 6, 2025, the deadline has been extended to April 2, 2025, to allow the FAA more time to develop their online system for accepting these designations. This change aims to prevent disruptions in issuing these certificates due to the system's development delays. The compliance date for individuals who already hold certain certificates remains unchanged at July 7, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA decided to give people from other countries who want special flying certificates a little more time (until April 2, 2025) to find someone in the U.S. who can handle their mail, because they're having some trouble setting up their computer system on time.
