Finding

Lehigh County

[39 Pa.B. 1461]
[Saturday, March 21, 2009]

   Under section 2002(b) of The Administration Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 575(b)), the Director of the Bureau of Design makes the following written finding:

   The Department of Transportation (Department) plans to replace Spinnerstown Road Bridge, SR 2031, section 05B, over Hosensack Creek in Lower Milford Township, Lehigh County. Spinnerstown Road Bridge is a contributing element to the Dubbs-Reith Historic District. The project will also require right-of-way from the Dubbs-Reith Historic District.

   The effect of the project on the bridge will be mitigated through aesthetic treatment options that will be incorporated into the design of the new bridge. Where feasible, the Department will ensure that historically sensitive landscaping will be planted to replace mature trees and shrubbery that will have been removed by construction of the new bridge.

   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 effect.

   No adverse environmental effect is likely to result from this project.

BRIAN G. THOMPSON, P. E.,   
Director
Bureau of Design
