Finding

Berks County

[37 Pa.B. 2043]
[Saturday, April 28, 2007]

   Under section 2002(b) of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Chief Engineer for Highway Administration, makes the following written finding:

   The Department of Transportation (Department) plans to replace the S-Bridge (SR 3061, Section TLP) in Marion Township, Berks County. The project will require the removal of the National Register of Historic Places Listed S-Bridge and the use of land from the Tulpehocken Creek Historic District, a section 2002 resource within the project limits.

   Mitigation measures will be taken to minimize harm to the Tulpehocken Creek Historic District including providing aesthetic treatments for the new bridge, planting historically sensitive landscaping, documenting the bridge's demolition, providing the opportunity for local historic organizations to reuse the stones from the original bridge, and providing an education booklet on the history of the Tulpehocken Settlement.

   The Chief Engineer for Highway Administration has considered the environmental, economic, social and other effects of the proposed project as enumerated in section 2002 of The Administrative Code 1929, and has concluded that there is no feasible and prudent alternative to the project as designed and all reasonable steps have been taken to minimize such effect.

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

M. G. PATEL, P. E.,   
Chief Engineer
