Finding

Butler County

[37 Pa.B. 730]
[Saturday, February 10, 2007]

   Under section 2002(b) of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Chief Engineer for Highway Administration, Department of Transportation (Department) makes the following written finding:

   The Federal Highway Administration and the Department are planning the completion of the existing half-diamond interchange located along Interstate 79 at Little Creek Road (SR 3025), within Jackson Township and Harmony Borough, Butler County. The proposed project will provide for traffic movements in the southern quadrants. The existing ramps would also be upgraded to conform with current design criteria.

   An Environmental Assessment (EA) was prepared to evaluate the potential environmental impacts caused by the subject project. The Federal Highway Administration issued a Finding of No Significant Impact on January 11, 2007, determining that the proposed alternative will have no significant impact on the human environment.

   The EA and supporting documentation find that there is no practicable alternative to construction of the preferred alternative, and the proposed action includes all practicable measures to minimize harm to the environment, which may result from the proposed project.

   Mitigation measures will be taken to minimize harm as stipulated in the EA. The proposed project has no Section 4(f) use.

   The environmental, economic, social and other effects of the proposed project as enumerated in section 2002 of The Administrative Code have been considered, and it has been concluded that all reasonable planning was completed to avoid, minimize or mitigate the environmen-tal effects that are likely to result from the construction of this project.
