Finding
Butler County
[32 Pa.B. 3182] Under section 2002(b) of The Administrative Code 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:
The Federal Highway Administration (FHA) and the Department of Transportation are planning on replacing the McDeavitt Bridge, which carries Fenelton Road (T-691) over Buffalo Creek in Clearfield Township, Butler County. It has been determined that the proposed project will have an adverse effect on the McDeavitt Bridge, which was determined eligible for the National Register of Historic Places and is, therefore, considered a Section 2002/Section 4(f) resource.
The subject project is considered a Level 4 Categorical Exclusion Evaluation (CEE) in accordance with 23 CFR 771.117(d)(1) and (3) (relating to categorical exclusions) as published in the August 28, 1987, Federal Register.
Mitigation measures will be taken to minimize harm as stipulated in the CEE/Programmatic Section 4(f) Evaluation and the Memorandum of Agreement between the FHA and the State Historic Preservation Officer. Mitigation measures include the following:
* A marketing plan will be developed for the bridge.
* A recordation of the bridge will be conducted according to State-level standards.
* An approved erosion and sedimentation control plan will be implemented.
The environmental, economic, social and other effects of the proposed project as enumerated in section 2002 of The Administrative Code of 1929, 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 these effects.
BRADLEY L. MALLORY,
Secretary
