SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by the FHWA that are final 
within the meaning of 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). The actions relate to the 
proposed I-15; 24th Street Interchange project in Weber County in the

DATES: By this notice, the FHWA is advising the public of final agency 
actions subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). A claim seeking judicial review 
of the FHWA actions on the highway project will be barred unless the 
claim is filed on or before September 15, 2014. If the Federal law that

northbound and southbound auxiliary lanes on I-15 between the 24th 
Street and 21st Street Interchanges; widen 24th Street from two lanes 
to four lanes from the planned intersection of 2550 South and 
Pennsylvania Avenue to 900 West; restripe 2550 South from two lanes to 
three lanes; construct a new alignment to the southeast of Midland 
Drive at Pennsylvania Avenue connecting to the intersection of 1900 
West and Midland Drive comprised of four lanes, a center turn lane, 
paved shoulders, curb, gutter, parkstrip, and sidewalk; realign the 
access road for the Northern Utah Community Correctional Center to
