This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status. For complete information about, and access to, our official publications and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for legal research should verify their results against an official edition of the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.
Federal Communications Commission.
Direct final rule; partial withdrawal.
The Federal Communications Commission published a direct final rule in the Federal Register on December 12, 2025, concerning the elimination of certain outdated, obsolete, and unnecessary rules. The Commission identified rules for repeal that plainly no longer serve the public interest because they are duplicative, outdated, or unnecessary. However, this document identifies certain rule deletions from the direct final rule that either drew “significant adverse” public comments or that the Commission itself has determined require additional notice and comment procedures. This document provides notice that the repeal instructions for these specific rules and rule parts are withdrawn, and the rules are retained.
Effective February 10, 2026.
