SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective July 1, 2007, the Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) assigned, and the California Department of
Transportation (Caltrans) assumed, environmental responsibilities for
this project pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 327. Notice is hereby given that
Caltrans has taken final agency actions subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1)
by issuing licenses, permits, and approvals for the following highway
project in the State of California: Remove and reconstruct entire
roadway pavement structural section between East Santa Inez (PM 12.3)
and Murchison Drive (PM 15.8). A total of 34 new drainage inlets would
be installed, and 25 existing drainage inlets would be modified to
conform to changes to curb ramps. All existing reinforced concrete
pipes, clay pipes, and metal pipes smaller than 18 inches would be
replaced with 18-inch polyvinyl chloride pipes. All existing sidewalks
from East Santa Inez Avenue (PM 12.3) to Dufferin Avenue (PM 15.3)
would be upgraded, ranging from 5 to 6 feet in width, to comply with
ADA standards. Other pedestrian improvements include touch-free APS and
CPS at signalized intersections, pedestrian hybrid beacons at
uncontrolled intersections, realignment of existing crosswalks, advance
stop pavement markings, adjustments to signal timing to provide for a
leading pedestrian interval. Two design options regarding utilities are
being evaluated (1) Utility poles would be removed and relocated at
various locations throughout the project limits to conform to
infrastructure upgrades, or (2) existing electrical transmission,
telecommunications, and cable TV lines that currently run along poles
above the roadway would be relocated underground from Barroilhet Avenue
(PM 12.9) to Ray Drive/Rosedale Avenue (PM 15.2). The actions by the
Federal agencies, and the laws under which such actions were taken, are
described in the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) approved
on April 20, 2022, and in other documents in the Caltrans' project
records. The FEIS and other project records are available by contacting
