Finding

Montgomery County

[40 Pa.B. 5873]
[Saturday, October 9, 2010]

 Under section 2002(b) of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Director of the Bureau of Design makes the following written finding:

 The Federal Highway Administration and the Department of Transportation (Department) are planning to replace the existing structure that carries Terwood Road over an unnamed tributary to Pennypack Creek in Lower Moreland Township, Montgomery County. The project will require the use of the Jarrett Estate Property, which has been determined eligible for inclusion in the National Register and, therefore, qualifies as a Section 4(f)/Section 2002 resource.

 In accordance with section 2002 of The Administrative Code of 1929 establishing the Department, a Level 1b Categorical Exclusion Evaluation (CEE) has been developed for the subject project along with a Determination of Section 4(f) De Minimis Use/Section 2002 No Adverse Use document to evaluate the potential environmental impacts caused by the subject project. The document also serves as the Section 2002 Evaluation. The approved documents are available in the CE/EA Expert System.

 Based upon studies, there is no feasible and prudent alternative to the proposed action. Mitigation measures will be taken to minimize harm as stipulated in the Level 1b CEE and the Determination of Section 4(f) De Minimis Use/Section 2002 No Adverse Use document.

 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.
