**AGENCY :**  Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT.

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

**SUMMARY :**  This notice announces action taken by the FHWA and other Federal Agencies that is final within the meaning of 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). This final agency action relates to a proposed highway project, Bonner Bridge Replacement Project along NC 12, from Rodanthe to Bodie Island in Dare County, North Carolina. The FHWA’s Record of Decision (ROD) identifies the Bridge within the Existing NC 12 Easement Alternative as the selected alternative for Phase IIa of the Bonner Bridge Replacement 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 on the highway project will be barred unless the claim is filed on or before April 21, 2014. 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 final agency action by issuing a Record of Decision (ROD) for the following highway project in the State of North Carolina: Pea Island Long-Term Improvements for Phase IIa of the Bonner Bridge Replacement Project along Highway NC 12 in Dare County, North Carolina. The project is also known as State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) Project B– 2500A, and is part of the second phase (Phase IIa) of the Parallel Bridge Corridor/Transportation Management Plan (PBC/TMP), which was identified as the selected alternative for Phase I of the Bonner Bridge Replacement Project (STIP No. B–2500) in the Record of Decision (ROD) approved by FHWA on December 20, 2010. The NC 12 PBC/ TMP addresses the length of the entire project for STIP No. B–2500, from the Village of Rodanthe to Bodie Island. The TMP is guiding the implementation of future phases of the project through

2060.

Located along the Outer Banks of North Carolina, the selected alternative for Phase IIa proposes to construct a bridge in the existing NC 12 easement approximately 2.1 miles in length to replace the existing surface road and the temporary bridge over the Pea Island inlet. The total approximate length of Phase IIa (including approaches) is 2.4 miles. Pea Island inlet formed as a result of Hurricane Irene in August 2011.

The FHWA’s action, related actions by other Federal agencies and the laws under which such actions were taken, are described in the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS)/ Final Section 4(f) Evaluation for the project, approved on September 17, 2008; the Revised Final Section 4(f) Evaluation, approved on October 9, 2009; the Environmental Assessment, approved on May 7, 2010; the FHWA ROD approved on December 20, 2010, for Phase I and the PBC/TMP for the remainder of the project; the Phase IIa Environmental Assessment, approved February 12, 2013; the FHWA ROD for Phase IIa approved on October 7, 2013, and other documents in the project file.
