  • 2025-02811 — Transportation for Individuals With Disabilities; Adoption of Accessibility Standards for Pedestrian Facilities in the Public Right-of-Way
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 9846
    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) announced it will delay enforcement of new rules regarding accessibility standards for pedestrian facilities until March 20, 2025. This decision follows a presidential memorandum suggesting a review of recently published rules for consistency with current law and policies. The rule in question, related to the Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board's standards, became officially effective on January 17, 2025. The delay is meant to allow time for the new administration to properly examine these standards.

    Simple Explanation

    The people in charge of transportation want to make it easier for everyone, including those with disabilities, to safely walk and move around on the streets, but they are waiting a little bit longer—until March 20, 2025—before they start checking to make sure everyone is following the new rules. They are taking their time to make sure the rules are fair and good for everyone.

  • 2025-02747 — Radio Broadcasting Services; Various Locations
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 9846
    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has amended its rules to reinstate certain channels as vacant FM allotments in various communities, following their previous removal due to the issuance of construction permits or licenses. These allotments are now vacant because the associated FM authorizations were canceled or their applications dismissed. Although the FCC has confirmed these vacant allotments meet the necessary technical requirements, the commission is not opening them for new applications just yet but plans to address this in a future decision. The changes are effective as of February 19, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FCC is making some radio stations available again by putting them back on the list after they were taken off because of permits that didn't work out. They are not letting people apply for these radio spots just yet and will decide what to do next sometime later.
