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.

This document contains final regulations regarding the payment of tax by commercially acceptable means. The final regulations reflect changes to the law made by the Taxpayer First Act that would allow the IRS to directly accept payments of tax by credit or debit card, without having to connect taxpayers to third-party payment processors. These final regulations remove restrictions on the payment of any fee by the IRS under any contracts related to payment of taxes by credit, debit, or charge card, and on the IRS imposing any fee or charge on persons paying taxes by credit or debit card.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is finalizing an approval of a revision to the Arizona State Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ). This revision includes statutes and regulations amending the Cleaner Burning Gasoline (CBG) program, which is a control measure in the greater Phoenix metropolitan area to reduce emissions of ozone- forming pollutants, carbon monoxide (CO), and particulate matter. Additionally, this revision addresses the Winter Oxygenated Fuel program to control CO emissions in the Tucson area. Finally, this revision repeals the Arizona Gasoline Set[hyphen]aside (GSA) Program, applicable to the 1971 carbon monoxide nonattainment area covering Maricopa County and a portion of Pima County. This SIP revision is administrative in nature. This final action updates the existing SIP- approved CBG program with revisions that have been adopted and implemented by the State to clarify requirements, update references, and enhance flexibility of the program and will not impose any additional costs or regulatory burdens.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve revisions to the Pinal County Air Quality Control District (PCAQCD or "District") portion of the Arizona State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions concern emissions of particulate matter (PM) that is 10 micrometers or smaller in diameter (PM<INF>10</INF>) from fugitive dust sources, including open areas/vacant lots, unpaved lots, unpaved roads, paved public roadways, and construction sites. We are proposing to approve local rules to regulate these emission sources under the Clean Air Act (CAA or "Act").

The EPA is also starting the adequacy process for these budgets. Our proposed approval of the SIP revision would establish an attainment date of December 31, 2026, for the area.

The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2026-09-02, which applies to certain Pratt & Whitney RTX Corporation (PW) Model PW4074, PW4074D, PW4077, PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and PW4090-3 engines. AD 2026-09-02 requires repetitive angle ultrasonic scan inspections (AUSIs) of the high-pressure compressor (HPC) 15th- stage disks, front turbine hubs, high-pressure turbine (HPT) 1st-stage air seals, and HPT 2nd-stage hubs for crack indications, and removal from service and replacement if necessary, and for certain serial numbers, removal from service and replacement of the HPT 1st-stage air seal. Since the FAA issued AD 2026-09-02, the FAA was notified that a certain part number was omitted from AD 2026-09-02 and the applicability of the optional terminating action was matched to an unrelated requirement. This proposed AD would require repetitive AUSIs of the HPC 15th-stage disks, front turbine hubs, HPT 1st-stage air seals, and HPT 2nd-stage hubs for crack indications, and removal from service and replacement if necessary, and for certain serial numbers, removal from service and replacement of the HPT 1st-stage air seal. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
