ACTION: Notice of Limitation on Claims for Judicial Review of Actions 
by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), pursuant to 
23 U.S.C. 327.

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

SUMMARY: The FHWA, on behalf of Caltrans, is issuing this notice to 
announce actions taken by Caltrans. The actions relate to a proposed 
highway project, Interstate 10 (I-10) from the Los Angeles and San 
Bernardino county line to Ford Street in Redlands in the Counties of 
Los Angeles and San Bernardino, 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 December

provides a time period of less than 150 days for filing such claim, 
then that shorter time period still applies.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective July 1, 2007, the Federal Highway

Caltrans, and FHWA have taken final agency actions subject to 23 U.S.C.
