ACTION: Notice of limitation on claims for judicial review of actions
by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 17452]]
SUMMARY: The FHWA, on behalf of Caltrans, is issuing this notice to
announce actions taken by Caltrans that are final. The actions relate
to the proposed Dublin Boulevard--North Canyons Parkway Extension
Project (Federal-aid project number RTPL-5432(019)) in the cities of
Dublin and Livermore, County of Alameda, State of California. Those
actions grant licenses, permits, and approvals for the project.
DATES: A claim seeking judicial review of the Federal agency actions on
the project will be barred unless the claim is filed on or before
August 30, 2021. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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). Effective July 1, 2007, the FHWA assigned, and
Caltrans assumed, environmental responsibilities for this project
pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 327. Notice is hereby given that Caltrans has
taken final agency actions subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1) by issuing
licenses, permits, and approvals for the following project in the State
of California: The City of Dublin, in cooperation with Caltrans, City
of Livermore, Alameda County, and the FHWA, proposes to extend Dublin
Boulevard approximately 1.5 miles (mi) eastward through eastern Dublin
and an unincorporated portion of the County, terminating at the
boundary between the County and Livermore city limits (the Project).
The purpose of the project is to improve east-west local roadway
connectivity between the City of Dublin and the City of Livermore, and
improve mobility, multimodal access, safety and efficiency for all
roadway users. The purpose is also to indirectly relieve vehicular
congestion in the region by providing a completed freeway reliever
route along the north side of I-580 between I-680 and Route 84 (Isabel
Avenue). The actions by the Federal agencies, and the laws under which
such actions were taken, are described in the Final Environmental
Assessment (EA)/Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the
project, issued on February 1, 2021, and in other documents in
