transportation corridor project (Hyde Park to North Logan 
Transportation Corridor) in Cache County in the State of Utah. 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 FHWA actions on the highway project will be barred unless the 
claim is filed on or before June 10, 2012. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that the FHWA has 
taken final agency actions subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1) by issuing 
licenses, permits, and approvals for the following highway project in 
the State of Utah: the Hyde Park to North Logan Transportation Corridor 
(200 East) in Cache County, Utah, project number FHWA-UT-EIS-07-04-F. 
The roadway will extend from 1400 North in Logan to 3700 North in Hyde 
Park. The selected alternative follows 200 East between 1400 North and 
2200 North, shifts west to follow 100 East between 2400 North and 2800 
North, then shifts east to follow 150 East to 3700 North. The selected 
alternative will be five lanes (two through lanes in each direction and 
a center turn lane) from 1400 North to 2200 North and three lanes (one 
through lane in each direction and a center turn lane) from 2200 North 
to 3700 North. Portions of the project will be constructed on new 
alignment and will likely be implemented using a phased approach, which 
is described in the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS). These 
actions will improve regional connectivity and mobility and provide 
transportation infrastructure that supports economic development within 
the cities of Hyde Park, Logan, and North Logan in Utah.
    The actions by the FHWA, and the laws under which such actions were 
taken, are described in the FEIS for the project, approved on June 22, 
2011, in the FHWA Record of Decision (ROD) issued on October 14, 2011,

ROD, and other documents in the FHWA administrative record are

above. The FHWA FEIS and ROD can be viewed and downloaded from the 
project Web site at http://www.cachempo.org or viewed at public
