Cboe EDGX Exchange, Inc. has proposed a change to its fee schedule, specifically increasing the cost of 10 gigabit (Gb) physical connectivity ports from $7,500 to $8,500 per month. This fee adjustment is intended to support the maintenance and improvement of market technology and services while staying competitive compared to fees charged by other exchanges. The proposed change is also meant to reflect inflation and investments the Exchange has made since the last fee adjustment in 2018. The Securities and Exchange Commission is seeking public comments on this proposal until January 21, 2025.

The Department of Agriculture is seeking public comments as part of its submission of information collection requirements to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. Various programs within the Rural Housing Service, including Civil Rights Compliance, Fire and Rescue Loans, and the Guaranteed Rural Rental Housing Program, are highlighted for their information collection efforts. These collections aim to ensure compliance with civil rights laws, determine project feasibility, and manage government resources efficiently. Public comments regarding these collections are due by February 20, 2025.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has designated a large area in the Pacific Ocean, called the Papahānaumokuākea National Marine Sanctuary, to protect its unique marine environment around the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. The sanctuary spans about 582,570 square miles and is intended to preserve its invaluable biological, cultural, and historical resources. The rules for this sanctuary involve regulating activities like fishing and anchoring, following existing management frameworks and international guidelines to ensure protection while allowing for some scientific and cultural activities. This designation is in collaboration with various partners, including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the State of Hawaii, to enhance the protection and management of this significant marine area.

The Department of Education is inviting applications for new awards under the Educational Technology, Media, and Materials for Individuals with Disabilities program for fiscal year 2021. The program aims to set up a Captioned and Described Educational Media Center to provide accessible educational materials, such as captioned and described video content, for students with disabilities. The center seeks to improve educational results for these students by developing and offering technology and media resources that are accessible and useful in classroom settings. The application submission deadline is April 27, 2021.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has expanded the use of unlicensed very low power (VLP) devices across the entire 6 GHz band, from 5.925 to 7.125 GHz. These devices are set to operate under specific technical rules designed to prevent interference with licensed services. The expansion aims to enhance applications like augmented and virtual reality by providing more bandwidth for high-speed, low-latency operations. This move is expected to bring significant economic benefits by increasing opportunity and innovation in wireless communication technologies.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) reviewed the test procedure for commercial warm air furnaces (CWAFs) after a court remand regarding the thermal efficiency two (TE2) metric. The DOE determined that the industry test procedure for measuring energy efficiency during a typical use cycle, considering jacket losses and part-load operation, is inadequate. Consequently, the DOE reaffirmed its new test procedure, which accounts for these factors, ensuring that energy efficiency is accurately measured. This revised procedure will help provide clearer information for consumers and manufacturers when new energy standards are set.

The Department of Energy (DOE) is requesting a three-year extension for collecting information under the Paperwork Reduction Act. The extension involves gathering data and maintaining records related to energy or water conservation standards for various consumer products and industrial equipment. The DOE received comments from stakeholders like the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI), expressing concerns about the burden of reporting requirements and the late release of reporting templates. The DOE aims to improve these processes and ensure collected data is necessary for compliance and protected as confidential business information.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new airworthiness directive for Boeing 737 models, prompted by incidents where engine components detached and caused aircraft damage. This rule requires replacing or inspecting specific parts, updating maintenance programs, and addressing potential engine nacelle maintenance errors by using redesigned components and high-visibility paints. The changes aim to prevent conditions that could lead to an aircraft losing control or excessive drag during flight. Compliance is required by April 8, 2025, with the costs estimated at $7,650 per operator for updating programs.

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes changes to its life insurance regulations to make it easier for terminally ill service members and their families to access benefits. Typically, a terminally ill person must apply for their Accelerated Benefit, which allows them to receive part of their insurance payout early. However, the rule change would allow an alternate applicant, like someone with power of attorney, to apply if the insured person cannot do so themselves because of medical reasons. This update would also make it clear who qualifies as a dependent for insurance coverage and aligns VA's practices with industry standards.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a correction for a previously published rule regarding air quality standards for particulate matter, particularly focusing on PM2.5 standards. The final rule, originally published in March 2024, had errors in its text about deadlines for state plans and technical descriptions for air quality monitors. The EPA clarified that states must submit implementation plans within three years of the standards' announcement, not their effective date. Additionally, several technical corrections were made, such as updating measurement methods and fixing typographical errors, all of which don't change the rule's substance.
