Finding
Cumberland County
[41 Pa.B. 3062]
[Saturday, June 11, 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 to replace the structurally deteriorated superstructure (piers and abutments will remain) of the SR 0641 bridge over Big Spring Run in Newville Borough, Cumberland County. The structure will not be widened and the current sidewalk will be replaced on the same side of the bridge.
Permanent right-of-way (ROW) takes are required for this project to incorporate the existing wingwalls into the Department ROW and to allow for future Department maintenance. The ROW acquisitions are required from two Section 4(f) properties: the Big Spring Presbyterian Church property (0.0043 acre) located within the Newville Historic District and the Newville Water Company (0.0047 acre) which is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The Newville Water Company property is also a public recreation area; therefore, two Section 4(f) documents were developed for this ROW take. The ROW takes from these two properties will constitute Section 2002 resource use.
In accordance with section 2002 of The Administrative Code of 1929 establishing the Department, a Level-1b Environmental Document has been developed for the subject project to evaluate the potential environmental impacts caused by the subject project along with two Determination of Section 4(f) De Minimis Use Section 2002 No Adverse Use Historic Properties documents and one Determination of Section 4(f) De Minimis Use Section 2002 No Adverse Use Recreation Area document. The Section 4(f) documents also serve 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 resources for the proposed action.
