DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Finding Centre County [36 Pa.B. 5940]
[Saturday, September 23, 2006]Under section 2002(b) of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 512(b)), the Deputy Secretary for Highway Administration makes the following written finding:
The Federal Highway Administration and the Department of Transportation are planning to widen and resurface SR 504 in Boggs Township, Centre County.
The subject project is considered a Level 2 Categorical Exclusion in accordance with 23 CFR Part 771.117(d), Item 1 as published in the August 28, 1987, Federal Register.
The Bald Eagle Area School District athletic fields are a Section 2002/Section 4(f) resource. A small sliver take of right-of-way from the property will constitute a use of the Section 2002/Section 4(f) resource.
Based upon studies, there is no prudent and feasible alternative to the proposed action.
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.
