USDA Guidelines for Regenerative Biofuel Feedstock Crops
The rule updates USDA technical guidelines for measuring and verifying the carbon intensity of agricultural crops used to make biofuels. It gives farm producers a framework to calculate how approved farming practices change net emissions compared with a national average. The main impact is on farmers, biofuel feedstock suppliers, biofuel producers, and supply-chain verifiers. Businesses in the biofuel market may need to collect field-level data, document approved practices, and track emissions information through the supply chain.

This notice announces a public webinar for the SEDAR 103 assessment process on Caribbean alternate assessment methods. The webinar will take place on July 15, 2026, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. EST, and is part of a broader process used to review fisheries data and support fishery management decisions. The notice mainly affects fisheries scientists, fishery managers, fishing industry representatives, conservation groups, and other stakeholders interested in Caribbean fish stocks.

FERC Sets Environmental Review Schedule for Constitution Pipeline and Wright Interconnect Projects
FERC is preparing an environmental assessment for two revived natural gas infrastructure projects: the Constitution Pipeline and the Wright Interconnect. The projects would add about 125 miles of 30-inch natural gas pipeline across parts of Pennsylvania and New York, plus new and expanded compressor and metering facilities. The notice sets the review timetable. FERC plans to issue the environmental assessment for public comment on August 21, 2026, with a federal authorization decision deadline of November 19, 2026. Energy companies, local governments, landowners, environmental groups, and communities along the route should watch the comment period and prepare input if they may be affected.
FAA Airworthiness Directive for Certain Airbus A321neo Aircraft
This rule requires operators of certain Airbus A321neo aircraft to carry out repeated inspections of specific fastener holes and frame foot joint connections in the center fuselage. The FAA is acting after a manufacturing process review found a deviation in the cold working process used on the assembly line. Airlines and maintenance teams operating the affected aircraft must follow the inspection requirements and complete any needed crack checks or repairs. The rule takes effect on August 3, 2026.
FAA renewal of Privacy ICAO Address information collection
The FAA plans to renew its approval to collect information from aircraft operators that apply for a Privacy ICAO Address through a web-based process. The program lets eligible operators use privacy-focused aircraft address services, while still giving the FAA enough information to check eligibility, monitor safety, and support enforcement when needed. Aircraft operators that use or want to use the Privacy ICAO Address Program may be affected. The notice does not create a new operating rule, but it asks for public comments on whether the information collection is needed, whether the estimated burden is accurate, and how the process could be improved. Comments are due by August 25, 2026.
Cultural Objects Approved for U.S. Exhibition at The Met
This notice allows certain culturally significant objects from abroad to be temporarily displayed in the United States for the exhibition “Across Wine-Dark Seas: Art and Identity Beyond Ancient Greece” at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and possibly at other venues. The practical effect is limited. It supports the legal and administrative process for importing and exhibiting the objects, giving museums, foreign lenders, and exhibition organizers a clear basis for the temporary display.
