SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA) Performance 

Progress Report (PPR) Form. 

Background: FHWA is administering 

over 40 discretionary grant and 

cooperative agreement programs, 

including those established under the 

Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), 

enacted as the Infrastructure Investment 

and Jobs Act, (November 15, 2021, Pub. 

L. 117–58) and the Inflation Reduction 

Act, 2022 (August 16, 2022, Pub. L. 

117–169). The Uniform Administrative 

Requirements in 2 CFR part 200 require 

recipients of Federal financial assistance 

awards to monitor activities under 

Federal awards to ensure compliance 

with applicable Federal requirements 

and performance expectations are being 

achieved. In addition, the regulations 

require Federal awarding agencies, such 

as FHWA, to use OMB-approved 

common information collections. The 

FHWA PPR form will be used by 

recipients of FHWA grant awards and 

cooperative agreements to report 

performance and progress of a Federal 

financial assistance-funded construction 

or non-construction project. 

Respondents: Recipients of a 

discretionary grant or cooperative 

agreement award administered by 

FHWA. Discretionary grant or 

cooperative agreement recipients 

include but are not limited to State 

DOTs as defined in 23 U.S.C. 101, U.S. 

Territories, Federally recognized tribes, 

and other entities identified as eligible 

for federal financial assistance from 

FHWA. 

Frequency: The information will be 

collected quarterly, semiannually, or 

annually, as required by the Notice of 

Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the 

grant program. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: 1 hour per respondent per 

form per grant award. This includes 

time to review the form instructions, 

research existing sources to gather 

necessary data, complete and review the 

form before submitting to FHWA. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: It is expected that approximately 

2,500 respondents will complete up to 

4 PPR forms for a up to 10 grant awards 

per respondent for an estimated total of 

100,000 annual burden hours. 

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including: (1) 

Whether the proposed collection is 

necessary for the FHWA’s performance; 

(2) the accuracy of the estimated 

burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to 

enhance the quality, usefulness, and 

clarity of the collected information; and 

(4) ways that the burden could be 

minimized, including the use of 

electronic technology, without reducing 

the quality of the collected information. 

The agency will summarize and/or 

include your comments in the request 

for OMB’s clearance of this information 

collection.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Highway Administration 

Notice of Final Federal Agency Actions 

on Transportation Project in 

Washington State 

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT), 

ACTION: Notice of limitation on claims 

for judicial review of actions by FHWA. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces actions 

taken by the FHWA that are final. The 

action relates to the SR 3 Freight 

Corridor—New Alignment project, 

located in western Washington within 

the City of Bremerton, Kitsap County, 

and Mason County. The Project will 

construct the SR 3 Freight Corridor— 

New Alignment to the east of the 

existing SR3 with a design and posted 

speed of 50 miles per hour. The 

proposed alignment will begin at MP 

22.81 on existing SR 3 and connect back 

to the existing SR 3 alignment at MP 

29.49. The project includes stormwater 

treatment facilities, 12-foot lanes with 8- 

foot shoulders, and roundabouts at the 

north and south connections to existing 

SR 3. The FHWA’s Finding of No 

Significant Impact (FONSI) provides 

details on the Selected Alternative for 

the proposed improvements. 

DATES: 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 

May 1, 2025. 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 actions within the meaning of 23 

U.S.C. 139(l)(1) by issuing a NEPA 

Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI) for the SR 3 Freight CorridorNew Alignment Project in Mason and 

Kitsap Counties, Washington. The 

action(s) by FHWA and the laws under 

which such actions were taken, are 

described in the FONSI and the 

associated agency records. That 

information is available by contacting 

FHWA at the addresses provided above. 

The project proposed to provide a 

reliable, high-speed, regional route 

between Kitsap and Mason Counties. 

This new route will move freight and 

regional traffic between Shelton and 

Bremerton, thus bypassing the urban 

center of Belfair. This project will 

reduce congestion and improve safety 

through Belfair and provide an alternate 

route during highway closures resulting 

from vehicular crashes and other 

incidents. Construction of this project 

will provide safe and reliable regional 

access to jobs, goods, and services, and 

improve efficiencies for all public 

service providers, on SR 3 through 

Belfair. A FONSI for the project was 

signed on November 15, 2024. 

Information about the NEPA FONSI 

and associated records are available
