Finding

Adams County

[41 Pa.B. 1715]
[Saturday, March 26, 2011]

 Under section 2002(b) of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Director of the Bureau of Project Delivery as delegated by the Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:

 The Department of Transportation (Department) is planning on replacing a structurally deficient two-span reinforced concrete T-beam bridge and its approaches carrying SR 0234 (Main Street/Arendtsville Road) over Conewago Creek in Arendtsville Borough and Butler Township, Adams County. The proposed project will require the use of 0.173 acre of a publicly owned recreation area with baseball fields for permanent right-of-way (ROW) to accommodate the new wider bridge. The permanent ROW to be acquired is a sliver of the northwest corner of the recreation area property and does not include portions of the field used for recreation. The permanent ROW take will constitute a use of the 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 of Public Parks/Recreation Areas form 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.

 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. Based upon studies, there is no feasible and prudent alternative to the use of the Section 2002 resource for the proposed action. Mitigation measures will be taken to minimize harm as stipulated in the Level-1b CEE and the Section 4(f) document.
