BILLING CODE 4910-22-P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Highway Administration Notice of Final Federal Agency Actions on Proposed Highway in Washington 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 approval of the Re-Evaluation for the State Route

(SR)509 Completion Project in King County, State of Washington. DATES: 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 22, 2019. 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. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For FHWA, Lindsey Handel, Area Engineer, Federal Highway Administration, 711 S. Capitol Way, Suite 501, Olympia, WA 98501-1284, 360-753-9550, or Megan White, Director, Environmental Services Office, Washington State Department of Transportation, 310 Maple Park Avenue SE, Olympia, WA 98504, 360-705-7480, or *Megan.White@wsdot.wa.gov.* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that FHWA has taken final agency action(s) subject to 23 U.S.C. 139( *l* )(1) by issuing licenses, permits, and approvals for the following highway project in the State of Washington: The SR 509 Completion Project will extend the existing SR 509 freeway southeasterly from its current South 188th Street terminus to a new interchange on Interstate 5 (I-5) and will construct additional improvements on I-5 south of the new I-5/SR 509 interchange. The extension of SR 509 will be a new four-lane (two lanes in each direction) fully tolled highway segment from South 188th Street to I-5. The SR 509 Completion Project is a critical missing link in the state's highway network. The purpose of the proposed action is to improve regional highway connections with an extension of SR 509 to serve current and future transportation needs in southwest King County and to enhance southern access to Sea-Tac Airport. The SR 509 Completion Project improves transportation connections between urban and manufacturing centers in south King County for people and goods. Extending SR 509 will ease congestion on I-5, create another access point to Sea-Tac International Airport, and improve service between industrial districts by allowing freight and traffic to bypass I-5, SR 99 and local streets. The actions by the Federal agencies, and the laws under which such actions were taken, are described in the Re-Evaluation for the project approved on January 16, 2018, and in other documents in the project records.
