BILLING CODE 4910-RY-P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Highway Administration Notice of Final Federal Agency Actions on Transportation Project in Nebraska AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Department of Transportation (DOT). ACTION: Notice of Limitation on Claims for Judicial Review. SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by the FHWA, on behalf of the Nebraska Department of Transportation, that are final. The action(s) relate to the Norfolk—Wisner Project, located in Stanton County and Cuming County, Nebraska.
Those actions grant licenses, permits, and approvals for the project. The project will expand the existing two-lane highway to a four-lane expressway. The project begins east of Norfolk, approximately 0.30 miles east of the intersection of US-275 and Nebraska Highway 57 (N-57) at approximately mile marker
(MM)86. It extends east and south to approximately 17th Street in Wisner near MM 102, where it ties into the existing US-275 four-lane roadway. The FHWA's National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA)Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) provides details on the Selected Alternative for the proposed improvements. DATES: A claim seeking judicial review of the Federal agency actions on the listed highway project will be barred unless the claim is filed on or before February 2, 2026. 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.
