Morgan and Walton Counties, Georgia

AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Notice of limitations on claims for judicial review of action 
by FHWA and other Federal agencies.

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by FHWA and other Federal 
agencies that are final. This final agency action relates to a proposed 
new interchange project, the I-20 at Old Mill Road Interchange Project, 
along I-20 at Old Mill Road beginning approximately 0.38 mile south of 
I-20 on Old Mill Road and ending approximately 0.27 mile north of I-20 
at a signalized intersection with a newly constructed frontage road. 
The length of the proposed project is approximately 0.73 mile. The I-20 
at Old Mill Road Interchange Construction Project is located in Morgan 
and Walton Counties, Georgia. The FHWA's Finding of No Significant 
Impact (FONSI) provides details on the Selected Alternative for the 
proposed interchange. Those actions grant licenses, permits, and 
approvals for the project.

DATES: By this notice, FHWA is advising the public of the 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 March 8, 2024. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that FHWA has taken a 
final agency action on GDOT Project PI 0018361 by issuing a FONSI for 
the following new interchange project in the State of Georgia: The I-20 
at Old Mill Road Interchange Construction Project located in Morgan and 
Walton Counties, Georgia. The Selected Alternative will construct a new 
interchange along I-20 at Old Mill Road. Old Mill Road in the vicinity 
of the new interchange will be widened from a two-lane section to a 
four-lane section with a 20-foot grassed median with bike lanes (north 
of I-20) and sidewalks and realigned to the west of its current 
location. The project will begin approximately 0.38 mile south of I-20 
on Old Mill Road, construct a new bridge over I-20 to the west of the 
existing bridge, and terminate approximately 0.27 mile north of I-20 at 
a signalized intersection with a newly constructed frontage road. The 
length of the proposed construction is approximately 0.73 mile. The 
purpose of the project is listed below:
    <bullet> Provide new, direct vehicular access to I-20, which will 
serve current and projected future vehicular and truck traffic;
    <bullet> Provide congestion relief for the existing I-20/US 278 
interchange to the west, which is not anticipated to have sufficient 
capacity to accommodate projected traffic volumes by 2045;
    <bullet> Accelerate project delivery.
    The FHWA's action, related actions by other Federal Agencies, and 
the laws under which such actions were taken are described in the 
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the project, approved on March 8, 
2023, the FONSI issued on October 3, 2023, and other documents in the 
project file. The EA, FONSI and other project records are available by
