Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 101 / Thursday, May 28, 2009 / Notices 25609 

Notice of Intent to advise the public of 

changes to the logical termini for the 

Environmental Impact Statement that 

will be prepared to study improvements 

to State Route 15/State Route 57 to 

provide a four-lane facility beginning in 

the vicinity of the State Route 67/I–110 

Interchange in Harrison County, 

Mississippi and terminating on State 

Route 15 north of Beaumont, 

Mississippi, a distance of approximately 

61 miles. The original Notice of Intent 

for this project appeared in the July 17, 

2008 Federal Register. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Dickie Walters, Environmental 

Protection Specialist, Federal Highway 

Administration, 666 North Street, Suite 

105, Jackson, MS 39202–3199, 

Telephone: (601) 965–4217. Contacts at 

the State and local level, respectively 

are: Mr. Claiborne Barnwell, 

Environmental/Location Division 

Engineer, Mississippi Department of 

Transportation, P.O. Box 1850, Jackson, 

MS 39215–1850, telephone: (601) 359– 

7920; and Mr. Steven Twedt, District 6 

Engineer, Mississippi Department of 

Transportation, 6356 Highway 49 North, 

Hattiesburg, MS 39403–0551, telephone 

(601) 544–6511. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

FHWA, Mississippi Division Office will 

serve as the lead Federal agency for this 

project while the Mississippi 

Department of Transportation (MDOT) 

will serve as joint lead agency. The 

FHWA, in cooperation with MDOT, will 

prepare an Environmental Impact 

Statement (EIS) to study potential 

improvements to State Route 15/State 

Route 57 (SR 15/SR 57) in order to 

provide a four-lane facility. This 

approximately 61-mile long corridor has 

logical termini near the State Route 67/ 

I–110 interchange in Harrison County 

and on State Route 15 north of 

Beaumont, MS in Perry County. The 

termini on the southern end of the 

project is a change from the original 

southern termini which began in the 

vicinity of Ramsey Springs, MS and was 

identified in the original Notice of 

Intent for this project which appeared in 

the July 17, 2008 Federal Register. The 

purpose of the EIS is to address the 

transportation, environmental, and 

safety issues of such a transportation 

corridor. The transportation facility will 

greatly enhance hurricane evacuation 

from the Mississippi Gulf, provide a 

new four-lane facility, and meet 

legislative intent. Alternatives under 

consideration include (1) taking no 

action and (2) build alternatives. The 

FHWA and MDOT are seeking input as 

a part of the scoping process to assist in 

determining and clarifying issues 

relative to this project. Letters 

describing the proposed action and 

soliciting comments will be sent to 

appropriate Federal, State, and local 

agencies, Native American tribes, 

private organizations and citizens who 

have previously expressed or are known 

to have interest in this proposal. 

Another formal scoping meeting with 

Federal, State, and local agencies, and 

other interested parties will be held in 

the near future. Public involvement 

meetings will be held during the EIS 

process. The draft EIS will be available 

for public and agency review and 

comment prior to the official public 

hearing. To ensure that the full range of 

issues related to this proposed action is 

addressed and all significant issues 

identified, comments and suggestions 

are invited from all interested parties. 

Comments or questions concerning this 

proposed action and the EIS should be 

directed to the FHWA at the address 

provided above.

Notice of Final Federal Agency Action 

on Proposed Highway in Washington 

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of limitation of claims for 

judicial review of actions by FHWA. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces action 

taken by the FHWA that is final within 

the meaning of 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). This 

notice announces the availability of a 

Record of Decision (ROD) by FHWA 

pursuant to the requirements of the 

National Environmental Protection 

Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), 42 U.S.C. 

4321, as amended and the Council on 

Environmental Quality Regulations (40 

CFR Parts 1500–1508). This action 

relates to a proposed project in King 

County Washington, the SE Issaquah 

Bypass Project. 

DATES: By this notice, the FHWA is 

advising the public of a final agency 

action subject to 23 U.S.C. 771 and 23 

U.S.C. 139(l)(1). A claim seeking 

judicial review of the Federal Agency

barred unless the claim is filed on or 

before November 24, 2009. If the Federal 

law that authorizes that judicial review 

of a claim provides a time period of less 

than 180 days for filing such claim, then 

that shorter time period still applies. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

FHWA: Ms. Sharon P. Love, 

Environmental Program Manager,

Way Suite 501, Olympia, WA 98501;

For the City of Issaquah: Mr. Bob Brock,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that the FHWA has taken 

final agency action subject to 23 U.S.C. 

139(l)(1) by issuing a Record of Decision 

(ROD) for the following highway project 

in the State of Washington: SE Issaquah 

Bypass, City of Issaquah, and King 

County. The Selected alternative is the 

no-build alternative. 

The final environmental impact 

statement (FEIS) for the project was 

released January 4, 2008. At the time the 

FEIS was published, the Federal 

Highway Administration (FHWA), the 

Washington State Department of 

Transportation (WSDOT), and the city 

of Issaquah identified selected Modified 

Alternative 5 as the preferred course of 

action for building a new 1.9-kilometer 

(1.1-mile) four-lane principal arterial 

between Interstate 90 (I–90) and Front 

Street South in Issaquah, Washington. 

The proposed new arterial is commonly 

referred to as the Southeast Issaquah 

Bypass. 

The Issaquah City Council passed a 

motion on February 4, 2008, Agenda 

Bill 5562, stating the ‘‘Issaquah City 

Council recommends that the Southeast 

Issaquah Bypass Alternative 7, the NoAction Alternative, be selected for the 

Record of Decision.’’ 

Out of seven alternatives considered 

in the final EIS (including the no-action 

alternative), Modified Alternative 5 was 

determined to be the most desirable in 

terms of balancing social and economic 

impacts, impacts on the natural 

environment, transportation system 

performance, and cost. While FHWA 

supported the preferred alternative 

identified in the FEIS, it selected the 

No-Build alternative in the ROD due to 

the City Council’s decision. 

The actions by FHWA, and the laws 

under which the action was taken, are 

described in the Final Environmental 

Impact Statement for the project 

approved on January 4, 2008, in the 

FHWA Record of Decision (ROD) issued 

on January 26, 2009, and in other 

project records. The FEIS, ROD, and 

other documents in the FHWA project 

25610 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 101 / Thursday, May 28, 2009 / Notices 

file are available by contacting the 

FHWA or the City of Issaquah at the
