Finding
Crawford County
[38 Pa.B. 5235]
[Saturday, September 20, 2008]Under section 2002(b) of The Administrtative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Director of the Bureau of Design as delegated by the Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Department of Transportation (Department) are planning to make traffic signal improvements in Titusville, Crawford County, PA. This project will require the use of Scheide Park, which is a Titusville City owned park and, therefore, qualifies as a section 4(f)/section 2002 resource.
In accordance with section 2002 of The Administrative Code establishing the Department, a Level-2 Categorical Exclusion Evaluation has been developed for the subject project along with a ''Nationwide/Programmatic Section 4(f) Evaluation for Minor Involvement with Public Parks, Recreation Lands and Wildlife and Waterfowl Refuges'' checklist to evaluate the potential environmental impacts caused by the subject project. The checklist 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-2 CEE and the ''Nationwide/Programmatic Section 4(f) Evaluation for Minor Involvement with Public Parks, Recreation Lands and Wildlife and Waterfowl Refuges.''
The environmental, economic, social and other effects of the proposed project as enumerated in section 2002 of The Administrative Code 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.
