Finding Forest County [38 Pa.B. 7127]
[Saturday, December 27, 2008]Under section 2002(b) of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Director of the Bureau of Design ad designated by the Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:
The Department of Transportation plans to reconstruct the Lynch Village Bridge which carries SR 1003 over Tionesta Creek in Howe Township, Forest County. The referenced project involves the use of one known section 2002 resource, namely, the Lynch Village Bridge. The resource is a Parker Through-Truss Bridge constructed in 1905 and moved to its current location in 1948, and is considered a section 2002 resource. The effect of this project on the said section 2002 resource will be mitigated by the measures to minimize harm to the resource outlined in the Categorical Exclusion/section 2002 Evaluation for the subject project.
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 such effects.
