Finding

Huntingdon County

[31 Pa.B. 2755]

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

   The Department of Transportation plans to replace the existing bridge carrying SR 522 over the Blacklog Creek, improve the intersection of SR 522 & SR 2017, and improve the intersection of SR 522 & T-359 (Quarry Hill Road) in Cromwell Township, Huntingdon County. The project will require the acquisition of 0.2 hectare (0.5 acre) from the East Broad Top Railroad National Historic Landmark, and will impact 82 linear meters (270 linear feet) of the abandoned railroad bed of the National Register eligible Shade Gap Branch of the East Broad Top Railroad.

   Information describing the project together with the associated environmental analysis is contained in the Categorical Exclusion Evaluation/Section 2002 Evaluation that was prepared for this project.

   Based upon studies, there is no prudent and feasible alternative to the acquisition of 0.2 hectare (0.5 acre) from the East Broad Top Railroad National Historic Landmark and impacts to 82 linear meters (270 linear feet) of the National Register eligible Shade Gap Branch of the East Broad Top Railroad.

   I have considered the environmental, economic, social and other effects of the proposed project as enumerated in section 2002 of The Administrative Code, and have 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 replacement of this bridge.

Secretary
