The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2013-01-05, which applies to certain Airbus Helicopters (Eurocopter France) Model AS350B3 and EC130B4 helicopters. AD 2013-01-05 requires revising the Limitations section of the rotorcraft flight manual (RFM) supplement to reduce the starter generator operating current to 180 amperes (amps) and installing a placard in the instrument panel to indicate the revised limitation. Since the FAA issued AD 2013-01-05, the manufacturer determined the applicability needs to be revised to add helicopters equipped with certain part numbered starter generators and to remove helicopters with certain engines installed. This proposed AD would require revising the Limitations section of the RFM supplement of the existing RFM for the helicopter, to reduce the starter generator operating current to 180 amps and installing a placard in the instrument panel indicating the revised limitation. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all CFM International, S.A. (CFM) Model CFM56-7B engines. This proposed AD was prompted by an event involving a CFM Model CFM56-7B26/3 engine where a fan blade separated and resulted in an engine in-flight shutdown (IFSD) with debris penetrating the fuselage, which caused a loss of pressurization and prompted an emergency descent. This proposed AD would require a visual inspection of the fan blades for findings considered not serviceable and, depending on the results of the inspection, replacement with a serviceable part and additional fan blade inspections. This proposed AD would also require sending the inspection results to CFM if any finding considered not serviceable is found. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

NHTSA is proposing to amend Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108, "Lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment." The proposed updates to the standard are intended to remove unnecessary requirements and to provide design flexibility without impact on vehicle safety. The first two proposed changes would amend the test voltage specification for integral beam type headlamps and remove requirements that apply to vertical headlamp arrangements. Further proposed changes address vehicles equipped with Automated Driving Systems (ADS) that do not have manually operated driving controls. Those modifications would limit the application of certain requirements for manually operated turn signal, hazard warning signal, and beam switching controls to vehicles with manually operated driving controls. The changes are intended to address regulatory burdens and costs associated with equipment that does not fulfill the same purpose or provide safety benefits in an ADS-equipped vehicle without manually operated driving controls as in a vehicle with such controls. The changes would also narrow certain requirements for telltales to vehicles with manually operated driving controls and incorporate the term "telltale" where appropriate throughout the standard. Finally, a proposed addition to the standard would allow cyan-colored ADS marker lamps as optional motor vehicle lighting equipment in ADS-equipped vehicles.

The NCUA Board (Board) solicits public comment on a proposal to streamline the methods a federally insured credit union (FICU) may use to provide its members with notice of share insurance coverage. The current regulation is overly prescriptive, mandating that a FICU make available hard copies of certain prescribed materials. While a FICU would still be required to provide notice to members, the proposed rule would defer to the FICU on the method used for such notification. Among other methods, a FICU may elect to provide members with a link to updated online resources that will be maintained on the NCUA website. The Board believes the proposed rule will provide greater flexibility, reduce compliance costs for both NCUA and FICUs, and ensure that members are provided with up-to-date information regarding share insurance coverage.

NMFS proposes two technical revisions to regulations for the opening and closing times of groundfish fisheries in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) and Gulf of Alaska (GOA) management areas. First, this proposed rule would authorize NMFS to determine the opening and closing times for the sablefish Individual Fishing Quota (IFQ) and Community Development Quota (CDQ) fishing season, taking into consideration the halibut IFQ/CDQ season set by the International Pacific Halibut Commission (IPHC). Second, this proposed rule would allow NMFS flexibility to change the time of day for closing a groundfish fishery. This proposed rule is necessary to minimize regulatory discards, reduce uncertainty for fishery participants, and enable fuller utilization and more precise limitation of allowable harvest. This action is intended to promote the goals and objectives of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson- Stevens Act), the Fishery Management Plan for the Groundfish of the BSAI Management Area (BSAI FMP) and the Fishery Management Plan for the Groundfish Fisheries of the GOA (GOA FMP), and other applicable laws.

This document proposes to amend the Table of TV Allotments (Table) of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules in response to a petition for rulemaking filed by Iowa Public Broadcasting Board (Licensee), the licensee of noncommercial educational PBS member television station KDIN-TV (KDIN-TV), Des Moines, Iowa (Des Moines). The Licensee holds a construction permit (CP) to construct a facility on UHF channel *34 at Des Moines, and now requests to substitute VHF channel *11 for UHF channel *34 in the Table, with the technical parameters as set forth in KDIN-TV's current license. The Media Bureau previously granted a petition for rulemaking submitted by the Licensee to substitute UHF channel *34 in place of VHF channel *11 at Des Moines. The Licensee states that it is now unable to complete construction of the channel *34 facility within the time specified on the construction permit, and therefore requests amendment of the Table to allow it to continue to operate on VHF channel *11 at its currently licensed technical parameters to provide uninterrupted service to viewers. Given that the Licensee proposes to utilize its currently licensed parameters, we believe VHF channel *11 can be substituted for UHF channel *34 at Des Moines as proposed, in compliance with the principal community coverage requirements. In addition, we find that this channel change meets the technical requirements as well as the Commission's interference protection requirements.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") is proposing to amend the rule under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 that provides an exemption from the statutory prohibition on registered investment advisers receiving compensation on the basis of a share of capital gains in or capital appreciation of an advisory client's account. Specifically, the proposed amendments would expand the ability of investment advisers to receive this compensation from clients that are registered management investment companies and business development companies (collectively, "regulated funds"), subject to certain conditions. The proposal would relatedly amend certain regulated fund registration and reporting forms to require separate disclosure of all performance-based compensation paid by regulated funds to their investment adviser. The proposed rule amendments would also allow investment advisers to receive this compensation from additional clients by revising the rule's "qualified client" definition to include investors that meet the "accredited investor" definition in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. The proposal would relatedly make conforming amendments to certain other rules under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 whose provisions reference the "qualified client" definition.
