ACTION:

Notice of limitation on claims for judicial review.

SUMMARY:

The FHWA, on behalf of the State Department of Transportation (California DOT), is issuing this notice to announce actions taken by California DOT and other Federal agencies that are final agency actions. These actions relate to the proposed project to rehabilitate the Caldecott Tunnel Bores 1, 2 and 3. The project will preserve the structural integrity of the tunnel, improve ventilation performance and fire-fighting operational response, and extend its service life.

DATES:

By this notice, the FHWA, on behalf of California DOT, 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 listed highway project will be barred unless the claim is filed on or before January 5, 2026. 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.
