Access Project Along U.S. Highway 50 in the State of Nevada
AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice of limitation on claims for judicial review of actions
by FHWA and other federal agencies.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by FHWA and other Federal
agencies that are final. This final agency action relates to a proposed
highway project, the relocation of the Round Hill Pines Resort access
road and U.S. Highway 50 intersection, construction of a new access
road to the Round Hill Pines Resort, and improvements to a 0.35-mile
segment of U.S. Highway 50 near Zephyr Cove, Nevada. The FHWA's Finding
of No Significant Impact (FONSI) provides details on the Selected
Alternative for the proposed improvements.
DATES: By this notice, 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 March 17, 2022. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that FHWA has taken a
final agency action by issuing FONSI for the following highway project
in the State of Nevada: Round Hill Pines Access Project near Zephyr
Cove in Douglas County.
The project includes the relocation of the Round Hill Pines Resort
access road and U.S. Highway 50 intersection just north from the
existing location. The Round Hill Pines Resort is located within the
United States Forest Service, Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit. The
Project will also include widening along U.S. Highway 50 at the
relocated intersection to accommodate a median left turn bay and an
acceleration lane. The median left turn bay would accommodate travelers
who are headed northbound along U.S. Highway 50 and are turning across
traffic to enter the Round Hill Pines Resort. U.S. Highway 50 within
the project area would receive a pavement mill and overlay, lane
striping, pavement markings, and a safety edge in addition to the
relocated intersection widening. The Round Hill Pines Resort access
road would be approximately 0.14-mile in length constructed on new
alignment and would accommodate two travel lanes with safety shoulders.
The FHWA's action, related actions by other Federal agencies, and
the laws under which such actions were taken, are described in the
Environmental Assessment (EA) approved on May 28, 2021, and the FONSI
approved on October 1, 2021, and other documents in the project file.
The EA and FONSI are available for review by contacting FHWA at the
addresses provided above. In addition, these documents can be viewed
