SUMMARY: This notice announces certain actions taken by UDOT on behalf

applicable laws. The actions relate to a proposed highway project
located on US-89, from 11400 South to 10600 South, in the County of
Salt Lake, State of Utah. Those actions grant licenses, permits and
approvals for the project.
DATES: By this notice, the FHWA, on behalf of UDOT, is advising the
public of final agency actions subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). A claim
seeking judicial review of the Federal agency actions on the highway
project will be barred unless the claim is filed on or before December
21, 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.
