Notice of Final Federal Agency Actions on Proposed Roadway in
California
AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice of limitation on claims for judicial review of actions
by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FHWA, on behalf of Caltrans, is issuing this notice to
announce actions taken by Caltrans that are final. The actions relate
to a proposed roadway project, the I-10 Bypass: Banning to Cabazon
Project from the intersection of Hathaway Street and Westward Avenue in
the City of Banning, to the intersection of Bonita Avenue and Apache
Trail in the unincorporated community of Cabazon, for approximately 3.3
miles of new roadway in the County of Riverside, 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 April 18,
2022. 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.
