renewals required to be submitted varies
greatly each year, with a maximum year
of 620 renewals and a minimum year of
190 renewals, which places a difficult
administrative burden on the
Commission to review the renewals in
a timely manner in heavy years and/or
would require an increase in costs
associated with temporary staffing of the
ABR(f) program.
To resolve the imbalance, the
Commission, pursuant to 18 CFR 806.8,
waived the strict application of 18 CFR
806.22(f)(10) to up to 601 ABR(f)
approvals and authorized the Executive
Director to add one or two years to the
term of those approvals to best balance
the projected workload over the five
year renewal cycle. The list of extended
approvals are published on the

Federal agency actions. These actions
relate to Purgatory Road, a proposed
highway project between State Route
(SR) 9 and Southern Parkway (SR 7), in
the County of Washington, State of
Utah. Those actions grant licenses,
permits and/or approvals for the project.
DATES: By this notice, the FHWA, on
behalf of UDOT, is advising the public
of final Federal 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 August 30, 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective
January 17, 2017, FHWA assigned to
UDOT certain responsibilities of FHWA
for environmental review, consultation,
and other actions required by applicable
Federal environmental laws and
regulations for highway projects in
Utah, pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 327. Actions
taken by UDOT on FHWA’s behalf
pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 327 constitute
Federal agency actions for purposes of
Federal law. Notice is hereby given that
UDOT has taken final agency actions
subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1) by issuing
licenses, permits, and approvals for the
Purgatory Road; SR 9 to Southern
Parkway project in the State of Utah.
The Purgatory Road project proposes to
improve regional system linkage and
mobility between SR 9 and Southern
Parkway. The project includes
constructing a new three-lane roadway
on new alignment between SR 9 and
Southern Parkway. The proposed
alignment would begin at SR 9 and
follow the existing 5300 West alignment
until the Quail Creek Industrial Park.
The alignment would then run generally
southward along the existing dirt road
on the east side of the Purgatory Flat
until approximately Landfill Road
where it would swing to the west. The
alignment would then cross the Virgin
River via a new approximate 400-feet
long, three-span structure to connect
directly to Southern Parkway. These
improvements were identified in the
Environmental Assessment (EA)
prepared for the project by UDOT as the
