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

SUMMARY: The FHWA, on behalf of Caltrans, is issuing this notice to 
announce actions taken by Caltrans, USACOE, and USFWS, that are final 
within the meaning of 23 U.S.C. 139(l) (1). The actions relate to a 
proposed highway project, State Route 79 (SR 79) between Thompson Road 
and Domenigoni Parkway (post mile [PM] R8.4 to PM R15.8). The project 
is located north of the City of Murrieta, in unincorporated 
southwestern Riverside County, 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 September 
20, 2011. 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.
