The proposal would also amend the Systemic Risk Report (FR Y-15), which is the source of inputs to the implementation of the GSIB framework under the capital rule. The proposal would make several changes to better align surcharges with risk. First, it would modify certain coefficients used to calculate GSIB surcharges under method 2 of the GSIB surcharge framework to reflect changes in the financial system and the economy and provide for annual adjustments for real economic growth and inflation going forward. Second, the proposal would modify the measurement and weighting of the weighted short-term wholesale funding systemic indicator. Third, for certain systemic indicators currently measured as of a single date each year, the proposal would require measurement based on average values to reduce the effects of temporary changes to indicator values around measurement dates. Fourth, the proposal would reduce cliff effects and enhance the sensitivity of the surcharge to changes in a GSIB's systemic risk profile. Fifth, to improve risk capture, the proposal would also make improvements to the measurement of some systemic indicators used in the GSIB surcharge framework and the framework for determining prudential standards for large banking organizations. In addition to these changes, the proposal would make several amendments to the FR Y-15 to improve the consistency of data reporting and streamline the reporting process.","document_number":"2026-05961","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/03/27/2026-05961/regulatory-capital-rule-regulation-q-risk-based-capital-surcharges-for-global-systemically-important","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-03-27/pdf/2026-05961.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-05961.pdf?1774529110","publication_date":"2026-03-27","agencies":[{"raw_name":"FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM","name":"Federal Reserve System","id":188,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-reserve-system","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/188","parent_id":null,"slug":"federal-reserve-system"}],"excerpts":"proposal and the alternatives to the outcome estimated under the baseline.\n \n The economic analysis does not reflect the effects of the expanded risk-based proposal, which would interact with the impact of this proposal, for example, by changing risk-weighted asset amounts.

Based on its reconsideration of the RTR in the 2024 Final Rule, the EPA is proposing to amend the Commercial Sterilization Facilities NESHAP. The amendments would rescind the risk based standards, revise the standard for new aeration room vents that resulted from the technology review, revise the compliance demonstration requirements, and rescind a requirement related to permanent total enclosure (PTE). This proposal also includes technical corrections and clarifications to the Commercial Sterilization Facilities NESHAP and Performance Specification 19 to address erroneous cross-references, omissions of text, and typographical errors in the regulatory text that the EPA has identified after publication of the 2024 Final Rule.","document_number":"2026-05167","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/03/17/2026-05167/national-emission-standards-for-hazardous-air-pollutants-ethylene-oxide-emissions-standards-for","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-03-17/pdf/2026-05167.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-05167.pdf?1773665114","publication_date":"2026-03-17","agencies":[{"raw_name":"ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY","name":"Environmental Protection Agency","id":145,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/environmental-protection-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/145","parent_id":null,"slug":"environmental-protection-agency"}],"excerpts":"however, the EPA for the first time implemented an interpretation of CAA section 112(f)(2) that authorizes the Agency to conduct additional discretionary residual risk reviews (after completing the mandatory residual risk review within eight years of promulgating MACT standards) and impose risk-based standards pursuant to a second risk review.

BOEM is tasked with managing the development of U.S. Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) energy, mineral, and geological resources in an environmentally and economically responsible way. As such, BOEM is proposing to maintain certain provisions of the existing regulations and modify only those elements that, under new market conditions, merit updating. The major proposed amendments in this rule include returning to the previous BOEM practice of considering the financial strength of jointly liable predecessor lessees, revising the credit rating threshold for determining whether oil, gas, and sulfur lessees, right-of-use and easement (RUE) grant holders, and pipeline right-of-way (ROW) grant holders on the OCS are required to provide supplemental financial assurance above the required general financial assurance amount to ensure compliance with their Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA) obligations, revising the decommissioning estimate used to determine the amount of supplemental financial assurance required, and revising the appeals bond provision related to the Interior Board of Land Appeals (IBLA) appeal procedures. Each of these proposed amendments will be discussed in its corresponding section of this preamble. This proposed rule, if finalized, would significantly reduce the amount of supplemental financial assurance required from oil, gas, and sulfur lessees operating on the OCS, thereby supporting the goals of E.O. 14154 Unleashing American Energy. BOEM estimates that a total of approximately $6.2 billion of financial burden to the regulated community will be reduced. This reduction of the financial burden increases the amount of capital available for oil and gas exploration and production on the OCS.","document_number":"2026-04517","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/03/09/2026-04517/risk-management-and-financial-assurance-for-ocs-lease-and-grant-obligations","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-03-09/pdf/2026-04517.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-04517.pdf?1772804709","publication_date":"2026-03-09","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR","name":"Interior Department","id":253,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/interior-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/253","parent_id":null,"slug":"interior-department"},{"raw_name":"Bureau of Ocean Energy Management","name":"Ocean Energy Management Bureau","id":575,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/ocean-energy-management-bureau","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/575","parent_id":253,"slug":"ocean-energy-management-bureau"}],"excerpts":"credit ratings for full implementation of the 2024 Final Rule at $54.2, $205.4, and $67.4 million, respectively.
