Notice of Final Federal Agency Actions on Proposed Highway in 
Minnesota

AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of Statute of Limitations on Claims for Judicial Review 
of Actions by FHWA and Other Federal Agencies.

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by the FHWA and other 
Federal agencies that are final within the meaning of 23 U.S.C. 
139(l)(1). The actions relate to a proposed highway project on a 3.5 
mile combined segment of Trunk Highway (TH) 23 and U.S. Highway 71. The 
proposed project is from the TH 294 and TH 23/71 divergence on the 
south to the divergence of the TH 23 and U.S. Highway 71 on the north 
in Dovre Township, northeast of Willmar, Minnesota in Kandlyohi County. 
The proposed improvements include grade-separated interchanges at a 
relocated County Road 90 and at County State Aid Highway 25, median and 
driveway closures, and new or reconstructed segments of local frontage 
roads. Those actions grant approvals for the project.

DATES: By this notice, the FHWA 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 of the proposed highway project will be 
barred unless the claim is filed within 180 days from the date this 
notice is published in the Federal Register. If the Federal law that 
authorizes judicial review of a claim provides a time period of less
