ACTION: Rescind Finding of No 

Significant Impact (FONSI). 

SUMMARY: The FHWA, on behalf of the 

California Department of Transportation 

(Caltrans), is issuing this notice to 

advise the public that it has rescinded 

the Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI), which was issued on May 18, 

2010, and published on December 19, 

2011 in the Federal Register (Federal 

Register/Vol. 76, No. 243/Monday, 

December 19, 2011/Notices, [48940]) for 

a proposed highway project on U.S. 

Route 101 in Humboldt County. The 

FONSI was also revalidated on January 

24, 2014, and notice of that action was 

published on February 26, 2014 in the 

Federal Register (Federal Register/ 

Vol.79, No. 38/Wednesday, February 26, 

2014/Notices [108701]).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective 

July 1, 2007, FHWA assigned, and 

Caltrans assumed, environmental 

responsibilities for this project pursuant 

to 23 U.S.C. 327. Notice is hereby given 

that Caltrans has rescinded the FONSI 

for the following highway project in the 

State of California: Richardson Grove 

Operational Improvement Project. 

On May 18, 2010, Caltrans advised 

the public that it had prepared an 

Environmental Assessment (EA) and a 

Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI) for the Richardson Grove 

Operational Improvement Project to 

provide Surface Transportation 

Assistance Act (STAA) access on US 

Route 101, in compliance with the 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA). Project limit is from 1.1 mile 

north of the Mendocino County line to 

2.2 miles north of the Mendocino 

County line and would include minor 

curve realignments, drainage 

improvements, shoulder widening, cuts 

and fills, and a retaining wall. After 

issuing a Supplement to the EA, 

Caltrans revalidated the FONSI on 

January 24, 2014. Caltrans withdrew the 

FONSI on November 17, 2014, due to 

issuance of the Writ of Mandate by the 

Humboldt County Superior Court, on 

October 21, 2014, in the CEQA litigation 

at Case No. CV110002, directing 

Caltrans to set aside approval of the 

project, and requiring additional 

environmental analysis on the project. A 

new NEPA finding and any other 

necessary Federal environmental 

determinations will be issued consistent 

with this additional analysis.

Norfolk Southern Railway Company— 

Abandonment and Discontinuance of 

Service Exemption—in Essex County, 

N.J. 

Norfolk Southern Railway Company 

(NSR) has filed a verified notice of 

exemption under 49 CFR part 1152 

subpart F—Exempt Abandonments and 

Discontinuance of Service for NSR to 

abandon and discontinue service over 

approximately 2.0 miles of rail line as 

follows: NSR will abandon 0.71 miles of 

rail line between milepost 8.50 OJ and 

milepost 8.616 OJ and between milepost 

9.905 OJ and milepost 10.50 OJ; and 

NSR will discontinue service over a 

1.29-mile operating easement over a 

New Jersey Transit (NJT) line from 

milepost 8.616 OJ to milepost 9.905.OJ, 

all located in Essex County, N.J. (the 

Line).1 The Line traverses United States 

Postal Service Zip Codes 07003, 07109, 

07104 and 07107. 

NSR has certified that: (1) No local 

traffic has moved over the Line for at 

least two years; (2) no overhead traffic 

has moved over the Line for at least two 

years and that overhead traffic, if there 

were any, could be rerouted over other 

lines; (3) no formal complaint has been 

filed by a user of rail service on the Line 

(or by a state or local government entity 

acting on behalf of such user) regarding 

cessation of service over the Line, and 

no such complaint is either pending 

with the Surface Transportation Board 

(Board) or with any U.S. District Court 

or has been decided in favor of a 

complainant within the two-year period; 

and (4) the requirements at 49 CFR

protected under Oregon Short Line 

Railroad—Abandonment Portion

address whether this condition 

adequately protects affected employees, 

a petition for partial revocation under

Provided no formal expression of 

intent to file an offer of financial
