# Regulators Shape Infrastructure Compliance

A roundup for the week of September 28 covers federal regulatory and legal developments involving broadband infrastructure, vehicle fuel-economy requirements, workplace safety, and PFAS compliance, as well as climate-liability litigation and state-level PFAS rules. It identifies no solicitations, contract awards, funding amounts, or procurement contacts, but the developments may affect compliance obligations and demand across communications, transportation, and environmental services work.

- Contractors working on broadband infrastructure, vehicle programs, workplace operations, or PFAS-related projects should evaluate how applicable federal rules and state PFAS requirements affect project compliance.
- Transportation and environmental services providers may face changes in project assumptions as fuel-economy requirements, PFAS rules, and climate-liability outcomes develop.
- The roundup identifies legal and regulatory activity involving the FCC, OSHA, the Supreme Court, Congress, and state-level rules, including New Mexico; it does not specify particular rule changes or implementation dates.
