    The Department of Agriculture has finalized a rule superseding the interim rule to establish the Domestic Hemp Production Program, as required by the 2018 Farm Bill. This rule outlines regulations for State and Tribal plans and a Federal plan for hemp production where State or Tribal plans are not USDA-approved. The program details requirements for record-keeping, THC level testing, disposal of non-compliant plants, producer licensing, and overall compliance. The rule also specifies procedures for land use data collection and cooperation with law enforcement and other agricultural agencies.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. government made a new rule about growing hemp, a kind of plant, to make sure everyone knows the rules and keeps records. Some people think it might be hard and confusing to follow all these rules, especially keeping in touch with police and testing the plants safely.

    The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) acted as the Receiver for certain insured banks, handling the closure and asset liquidation of these institutions. The FDIC has completed its duties, distributed necessary dividends, and subsequently appointed FDIC-Corporate to handle any remaining documentation. As of the listed termination dates, the receiverships are officially closed, and the entities no longer exist legally. This action is backed by the authority of U.S. law.

    Simple Explanation

    The FDIC, like a caretaker for banks that couldn't keep going, has finished its job of closing them down and handling their left-behind stuff, so now there's nothing left for these banks to do. They have given the job of looking after any leftover paperwork to another part of FDIC, meaning these banks are like toys that got put away and don't get to play anymore.

    Simple Explanation

    The Secretary of Health and Human Services has given the Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) the authority to oversee the National Parkinson's Project, as outlined in the National Plan to End Parkinson's Act. This involves managing efforts to prevent, diagnose, treat, and cure Parkinson's disease, and includes setting up an Advisory Council on Parkinson's Research, Care, and Services. The Secretary will still handle reporting to Congress, making regulations, and appointing Council members, while the NIH can pass on some of its responsibilities under this delegation. This change takes effect immediately.

    Simple Explanation

    The boss of health gave the NIH's head the job of managing a project to stop Parkinson's disease, like being a team captain, but the big boss will still handle important stuff like talking to Congress and making rules.

    The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has made a new rule regarding its Director of the Division of Enforcement. The Director will no longer have the power to issue formal orders of investigation, which are needed to authorize enforcement staff to issue subpoenas under Federal securities laws. This change aims to improve efficiency and align the SEC's investigative efforts with its priorities. The adjustment is effective from March 14, 2025, and is considered an internal procedural change that doesn't significantly impact external parties.

    Simple Explanation

    The SEC decided that one of its directors shouldn't be the one to give permission for special investigations anymore, so they can be more focused on doing what's most important.

    The MĂĽtter Museum of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia has cataloged human remains after consulting with relevant Native American groups and determined there is a connection between these remains and present-day tribes. They invite tribes not listed in the document to request the transfer of remains by March 11, 2021, if they believe they are affiliated. The remains were historically linked to a Sioux Indian prisoner at Rock Island Arsenal, Illinois, dating back to the 19th century. If no new requests are received by the deadline, the remains' transfer to the identified tribes will proceed.

    Simple Explanation

    The MĂĽtter Museum in Philadelphia found some old bones and talked to Native American groups to see who they belong to. If no other groups ask for the bones by March 11, 2021, they'll give them back to the tribes they already talked to.

    The MĂĽtter Museum of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia has completed an inventory of human remains that were removed from "Old Crow Agency" in Big Horn County, Montana, and found they are culturally affiliated with several Native American tribes, including the Crow Tribe of Montana. The museum is notifying any other Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian organization not previously identified in the notice that wishes to request transfer of the remains. Interested parties must submit a request by March 11, 2021. If no additional requests are received, control of the remains will be given to the identified tribes.

    Simple Explanation

    The MĂĽtter Museum looked at some bones they had and found out they belong to Native American tribes, so they told the tribes about it. If other tribes want the bones back, they must ask by March 11, 2021, or the bones will go to the tribes they already told.
