Finding

Allegheny County

[32 Pa.B. 5145]

   Under section 2002(b) of the Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:

   The Federal Highway Administration, the Department of Transportation and the Urban Redevelopment Authority of Pittsburgh are planning the construction of an elevated pedestrian bridge with an elevator/staircase tower. The pedestrian bridge will connect Bessemer Court Plaza with a proposed boat dock landing. The project is located in the City of Pittsburgh, Allegheny County. The project will disturb approximately 0.5 acre of the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad Complex, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places and is, therefore, a Section 2002/Section 4(f) resource. The State Historic Preservation Officer has concurred in a determination of ''No Effect'' upon the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad Complex. Based upon studies, there is no prudent and feasible alternative to the project.

   The subject project is considered a Level 2 Categorical Exclusion in accordance with 23 CFR Part 771.117(d), Item 3 as published in the August 28, 1987, Federal Register.

   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 the effects. No adverse environmental effect is likely to result from this bridge project.
