[41 Pa.B. 4176]
[Saturday, July 30, 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 deficient bridge on SR 0068 over Sugar Creek in Brady's Bend Township, Armstrong County. The project will require acquisition of 0.217 acre of deminimis right-of-way from the Jim Kelly Youth Baseball Fields which qualify as a Section 4(f)/Section 2002 resource.
In accordance with section 2002 of The Administrative Code of 1929 establishing the Department, a Categorical Exclusion Evaluation (CEE) document has been developed for the subject bridge replacement project. The CEE includes a Determination of Section 4(f) DeMinimis Use, Section 2002 No Adverse Use, Public Parks, Recreation Areas, Wildlife and/or Waterfowl Refuges, State Forest Land and State Game Land (Section 4(f)) document to evaluate the potential environmental impacts caused by the subject project. 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 CEE and the Section 4(f) documents.
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.
