Notice of Final Federal Agency Action on a Proposed Highway 
Project in Wisconsin

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

ACTION: Notice of limitation on claims for judicial review of actions.

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

SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this notice to announce actions taken that 
are final Federal agency actions. The final agency actions relate to a 
proposed highway project, along United States Highway (US) 51 in Dane 
County, Wisconsin between Interstate 39/90 east of the city of 
Stoughton and US 12/18 in the city of Madison. 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 on the highway project will be barred 
unless the claim is filed on or before January 24, 2022. If the Federal 
law that authorizes judicial review of a claim provides a time period 
of less than 150 days for filing such a claim, then that shorter time 
period still applies.
