DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Finding

[28 Pa.B. 1901]

Chester 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 which carries Cream Road (S. R. 3085) over an unnamed tributary to Muddy Run in Lower Oxford Township, Chester County. The bridge will be replaced in-situ with a two lane, reinforced concrete culvert. There will be minimal approach work. The construction of this project will require 0.008 acres of right-of-way from the Ferguson's Mill property, which is a contributing element to the Ferguson's Mill/Hogg Historic District.

   The effect of this project on the Ferguson's Mill/Hogg Historic District will be mitigated by the following measures to minimize harm to the resource:

   1.  The existing bridge will be replaced with a structure that blends into the historic environment.

   2.  Prior to construction of the new bridge, the Ferguson's Mill/Hogg Historic District will be documented with archivally stable, 35mm, 5"x7" black and white photographs depicting streetscapes and landscape features. The photographs will be keyed to a clear, concise plan of the district showing the buildings and structures in relationship to the surrounding landscape; they will be accompanied by a narrative documenting the historic development of the district.

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

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