SUMMARY: The FHWA, on behalf of Caltrans, is issuing this notice to

of the United States Code. The actions relate to the proposed VEN-1

and 4.2 within the County of Ventura, State of California. Those 
actions grant licenses, permits, and approvals for the project.

DATES: By this notice, the FHWA, on behalf of Caltrans, 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 
9, 2019. 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.
