by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the Federal Lead Agency, 
in its March 6, 2017, Record of Decision, would extend the Sound 
Transit Link light rail system by 7.8 miles from Angle Lake Station in 
SeaTac south through Des Moines and Kent, terminating in Federal Way. 
The route would travel along the west side of Interstate 5 and would 
include stations at Kent/Des Moines near Highline College, South 272nd 
Street, and the Federal Way Transit Center. The action by FHWA, a 
Cooperating Agency on this project, is the March 9, 2017, approval of a 
NEPA Record of Decision for the FHWA approvals required for this 
project. The FTA, the Federal Lead Agency, issued a Notice of 
Limitation on Claims for their actions on this project on March 22, 
2017.

DATES: By this notice, FHWA is advising the public of final Agency 
actions subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). This notice applies to all FHWA 
decisions on the Federal Way Link Extension Project as of the issuance 
date of this notice and all laws under which such actions were taken. A 
claim seeking judicial review of the Federal agency actions on the 
listed highway project will be barred unless the claim is filed on or 
before September 11, 2017. If the Federal law that authorizes judicial 
review of a claim provides a time period of less than 150 days for 
filing such claim, then that shorter time period still applies.
