Notice of Final Federal Agency Actions on Proposed Highway in 
Utah

AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Department of 
Transportation.

ACTION: Notice of limitation on claims for judicial review.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The FHWA, on behalf of the Utah Department of Transportation 
(UDOT), is issuing this notice to announce actions taken by UDOT. The 
actions relate to the proposed I-80 and State Street Interchange 
project 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.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For UDOT: Brandon Weston, Director of 
Environmental Services, UDOT Environmental Services, P.O. Box 148380, 
Salt Lake City, UT 84114; telephone: (801) 965-4603; email: 
brandonweston@utah.gov. UDOT's normal business hours are 8:00 a.m. to 
5:00 p.m. (Mountain Standard Time), Monday through Friday, except State 
and Federal holidays.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The environmental review, consultation, and 
other actions required by applicable Federal environmental laws for 
this project are being or have been carried-out by UDOT pursuant to 23 
U.S.C. 327 and a Memorandum of Understanding dated January 17, 2017 and 
executed by FHWA and UDOT. Notice is hereby given that the UDOT has 
taken final agency actions subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1) by issuing 
licenses, permits, and approvals for the I-80 and State Street 
Interchange project in the State of Utah. This project proposes to 
replace the existing I-80 and State Street interchange located in the 
City of South Salt Lake, Salt Lake County, Utah. The project consists 
of the following improvements: Construct a Main Street westbound on-
ramp with a westbound frontage road between State Street and Main 
Street (interchange configuration to remain similar to existing 
configuration on the south side); Widen I-80 structure and add 
additional lanes on State Street under structure; Construct free-flow 
right-turn lane on the eastbound off-ramp; Eliminate right-turn on red 
light for the eastbound on-ramp; and Realign curb so all traffic uses 
striped lanes (frontage road access allowed from ramp lanes) for the 
eastbound on-ramp. These improvements were identified in the Final 
Environmental Impact Statement as Alternative 3N--Split Diamond at Main 
Street, North Side Only. The actions by the Federal agencies, and the 
laws under which such actions were taken, are described in the Final 
Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for the project (Final 
Environmental Impact Statement I-80 and State Street Interchange in 
South Salt Lake City, Utah, Project No. F-180-3[180]123), approved on
