Delaware secured 232 acres bordering the Zeneca site, known as the Blue Ball Properties and offered to provide land for the company’s expansion, as well as transportation, recreation, and other improvements that would benefit both AstraZeneca employees as well as the local community. Leaders from the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT), the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC), and the Delaware Economic Development Office (DEDO) became equal partners with the community in developing a master plan for the Blue Ball Properties. Project development included preparation of an environmental assessment (EA) document under NEPA, and identification of sensitive historic, cultural and natural resource areas. The project development process underwent a comprehensive minimization and avoidance evaluation to reduce impacts to natural and cultural resources on the project site and incorporated a proactive, environmental stewardship approach to mitigate for the impacts.

  • Final Draft EA 6-22-01A
    V. THE PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE Based on preliminary environmental impacts, compatability with project needs and input received from the public, public officials and various agencies, the No-Build Alternative and the Master Plan, Modified Alternative have been carried into detailed analysis. The Master Plan Modified Alternative included two (2) options for the alignment of the Eastpark Drive, Option A and Option B. Option B has been selected the Preferred Alternative because it eliminates the impacts to the J.R. Weldin Archaeological Site ruins. Following is a description of the issues, impacts and mitigation measures proposed with the No-Build and Preferred Alternatives. Table V-1 provides an impact summary for the No-Build and Preferred Alternatives. A. Community Effects 1. Land Use The study area generally extends from the U.S. 202/I-95 interchange, north to the existing AstraZeneca entrance near Delaware Route 141; and from the new Rockland Road Bridge on Delaware Route 141 east to the Murphy Road/Foulk Road intersection. Existing land use in the study area is generally mixed, comprised primarily of commercial, residential and institutional uses, as well as recreational and open space. Commercial uses are most common along U.S. 202 including Brandywine Plaza, Independence Mall and the AstraZeneca complex, as well as several independent commercial establishments. Residential uses include the developments of Alapocas, Alapocas II, Weldin Ridge, Deerhurst and Fairfax Farms which are situated to the east and west of U.S. 202 and are generally set back, although a portion of the Deerhurst development does front existing U.S. 202.
