bridges at Three Star Ditch (PM R87.96R/L) and Determination Ditch (PM 
R90.98 R/L) on Interstate 10, in the County of Riverside, State of

the project.

project will be barred unless the claim is filed on or before March 6, 
2023. 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.
