Finding
[29 Pa.B. 4496]
Bucks County Pursuant to the provisions of 71 P. S. Section 2002(b), The Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:
The Department of Transportation plans to replace the bridge, which carries S. R. 0513 over an unnamed tributary to Poquessing Creek with a box culvert. Approach and shoulder work will also be included. The total length of the roadway improvements will be approximately 170 meters (558 Ft.). The subject project is located in Bensalem Township, Bucks County.
The proposed project will require acquisition of right-of-way from (3) three residential properties totaling 0.065 hectares (0.16 acres) and will temporarily affect 0.075 hectares (0.19 acres) within Yezzi Park. No permanent loss of park property or usage is anticipated. Yezzi Park is a public park owned by Bensalem Township and, therefore, qualifies for protection under Act 120, Section 2002.
Mitigation measures to be taken to minimize harm to the Section 2002 resource will include revegetation of the disturbed land and planting of a new tree row at the top of the graded slope.
The environmental, economic, social, and other effects of the proposed project as enumerated in Section 2002 of the Administrative Code, have been considered. It has been concluded that there is no feasible and prudent alternative to the project as designed and all reasonable steps have been taken to minimize such effects.
No adverse environmental effect is likely to result from the project.
BRADLEY L. MALLORY,
Secretary
