The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Airbus A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This proposal is driven by the need for updated airworthiness limitations to ensure airplane safety. Affected operators would need to update their maintenance or inspection programs accordingly within a specified time. The proposed changes aim to maintain the structural integrity of these airplanes and include a call for feedback from the public by April 12, 2021.

On November 30, 2018, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) proposed new rules to change how swap execution facilities (SEFs) operate.

Instead, the CFTC is focusing on specific, smaller updates to improve SEF regulations without causing major disruptions. This decision reflects the Commission's intention to make changes that are more measured and less controversial.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed a rule to approve part of Louisiana's State Implementation Plan (SIP) for meeting air quality standards related to sulfur dioxide (SO₂), following the Clean Air Act guidelines. The plan addresses interstate air pollution transport, ensuring emissions from Louisiana do not significantly harm air quality in neighboring states. The EPA's review found no significant contribution to air pollution issues in nearby states and supports the proposal to approve Louisiana's SIP. Public comments on this proposal are invited until May 9, 2025.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a revision to New York's State Implementation Plan (SIP) to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from certain combustion turbines during the ozone season. The revision includes stricter emission limits aimed at improving air quality and meeting federal ozone standards. New York's approach involves phasing in the new limits and offers flexibility to turbine operators through two compliance options. This proposal is part of ongoing efforts to clear harmful pollutants and protect public health by ensuring states adhere to the Clean Air Act.
