The Department of Transportation (Department) is planning to replace the structurally deteriorated bridge on SR 4022 over Vesle Run (a tributary to Indiantown Run) in Union Township, Lebanon County.

Standard barriers, transitions and guiderail treatments will be installed.
The new structure will require permanent right-of-way (ROW) acquisitions on each side of the bridge to contain the structure and guiderail within the Department ROW. The ROW takes totaling 0.099 acre is contained entirely within the boundary of the Fort Indiantown Gap Historic District and 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 a Determination of Section 4(f) De Minimis Use Section 2002 No Adverse Use Historic Properties document. The Section 4(f) document also serves 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 nofeasible and prudent alternative to the use of the Section 2002 resources for the proposed action.
