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

project will be barred unless the claim is filed on or before December 
8, 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.
