Notice of Final Federal Agency Actions on Proposed Highway in 
California

AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of Limitation on Claims for Judicial Review of Actions 
by FHWA, and other Federal Agencies.

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by the FHWA, USACE, and 
other Federal agencies that are final within the meaning of 23 U.S.C. 
139(l)(1). The actions relate to a proposed highway project to widen 
State Route 99 from the existing four-lane facility to six lanes from 
the Austin Road interchange in the City of Manteca (post mile 4.9) to 
the Arch Road interchange in the City of Stockton (post mile 15.0), in 
San Joaquin County, State of California. Those actions grant licenses, 
permits, and approvals for the project.

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 Federal agency actions on the highway project will be barred 
unless the claim is filed on or before November 10, 2010. If the 
Federal law that authorizes judicial review of a claim provides a time 
period of less than 180 days for filing such claim, then that shorter 
time period still applies.

U.S.C. 139(l)(1) by issuing licenses, permits, and approvals for the
