Finding

[30 Pa.B. 2961]

Bucks County

   Pursuant to the provisions of 71 P. S. Section 2002(b), the Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:

   The Federal Highway Administration and the Department of Transportation plan to construct a loop ramp in the southeast quadrant of the S.R. 0095/S.R. 0332 interchange in Lower Makefield Township, Bucks County.

   The subject project will require right-of-way from the John Brown, Jr. Farmstead and the Joseph Satterthwaite Farmstead, which have been determined eligible for the National Register of Historic Places and are considered Section 2002/Section 4(f) resources. The proposed project will have no adverse effect on the resources.

   This project will use 1.43 hectares (3.54 acres) plus 0.224 hectares (0.555 acres) of property required for a drainage easement from the John Brown, Jr. Farmstead and 1.34 hectares (3.31 acres) from the Joseph Satterthwaite Farmstead.

   Mitigation measures will include preparation and implementation of a landscaping design, which will be integrated with the placement of right-of-way fence to serve as a visual screen from the interchange ramps along the eastern edge of the loop ramp adjacent to the Farmsteads.

   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 this highway construction project.
