Finding

[29 Pa.B. 3039]

Huntingdon County

   Pursuant to the provisions of 71 P. S. Section 2002(b), the Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:

   The Department of Transportation plans to replace the existing bridge carrying SR 22 over Shaffers Run in the Village of Shaffersville, Morris Township, Huntingdon County. This project will require the acquisition of 445 square meters (0.11 acres) of right of way from the Shaffersville Historic District and 283 square meters (0.07 acres) of right of way from the Huntingdon, Cambria, and Indiana Turnpike Remnants Historic District. The effect of this project on the Schaffersville Historic District and the Huntingdon, Cambria and Indiana Turnpike Remnants Historic District will be mitigated by the following mitigation measures:

   1.  Concrete form liners and stained concrete will be used for the construction of the bridge abutments and wingwalls to give the appearance of stonework.

   2.  The proposed concrete structure will be tinted to make it less obtrusive.

   3.  Clearing of vegetation for this project will be minimized.

   4.  The minimum design criteria for pavement and structure width and for guiderail placement will be used to minimize impacts to the historic districts.

   I have considered the environmental, economic, social, and other effects of the proposed project as enumerated in Section 2002 of the Administrative Code, and have concluded that there is no prudent and feasible alternative to the project as designed, and all reasonable steps have been taken to minimize such effect.

   No adverse environmental effect is likely to result from the replacement of this bridge.

Secretary
