Notice of Final Federal Agency Actions on the Newberg Dundee Bypass Project Project: Yamhill and Washington County, OR
AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of Limitations on Claims for Judicial Review of Actions by FHWA.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by the FHWA, NMFS, and other Federal agencies that are final within the meaning of 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). The actions relate to a proposed highway project, Newberg Dundee Bypass Project, in Yamhill and Washington Counties, Oregon. This action grants approval 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 December 10, 2012. If the Federal law that authorizes 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: Michelle Eraut, Program Development Team Leader, Federal Highway Administration, 530 Center Street NE., Suite 420, Salem, Oregon 97301, Telephone: (503) 316-2559. The Newberg Dundee Bypass Project Final Environmental Impact Statement, Record of Decision (ROD) and other project records are available upon written request from the Federal Highway Administration at the address shown above. Comments or questions concerning this proposed action and the Newberg Dundee Bypass Project should be directed to the FHWA at the address provided above.
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 approval for the following highway project in the State of Oregon: Newberg Dundee Bypass Project. The project will build an 11-mile, four-
travel lane, access-controlled expressway (Bypass) with four interchanges and related local circulation changes to reduce congestion on Oregon 99W through Newberg and Dundee in Yamhill and Washington Counties, Oregon. The project area is located along the south sides of Newberg and Dundee, from the Oregon 99W/Oregon 18 junction near Dayton (approximately Oregon 18 milepost 51.6) to past Rex Hill, east of Newberg (approximately Oregon 99W milepost 19.6). The project followed a tiered NEPA process. On August 26, 2005, FHWA issued a ROD on the Tier 1 FEIS that approved the Bypass Corridor (Corridor), the number and location of interchanges, and a general Bypass configuration. The Tier 2 DEIS, published in June 5, 2010, evaluated a No Build Alternative and Build Alternative based on the approved Corridor, including several design and local circulation options. A Preferred Alternative was identified, considering the Tier 2 DEIS analysis and public and agency comments received on the Tier 2 DEIS. The actions by the Federal agencies and the laws under which such actions were taken are described in the Final Environmental Impact Statement
