AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of Limitation on Claims for Judicial Review of Actions

SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by the California 
Department of Transportation (Caltrans) pursuant to its assigned 
responsibilities under 23 U.S.C. 327 that are final within the meaning 
of 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). The actions relate to a proposed highway 
project--Grand Avenue Widening Project, City of Santa Ana, in the 
County of Orange, State of California. Those actions grant licenses, 
permits, and approvals for the project.

DATES: By this notice, 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 April 4, 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.
