Yeahbut, I don't believe strobes are mandated. I think red obstruction lighting is always an option. American towers used white strobes in lots of rural areas around here. All the broadcasters are still red. If it really bugged me, I would offer to pay for the conversion to red if they would do it. I wouldn't be surprised to learn the strobes might last longer, but with LED edison base bulb replacements, that might not be an issue any longer.
You mention an EA. If there was an EA, visual resource management plans are sometimes part of the EA. If you have a VRMP for that area, you might get a copy and become familiar with it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "'WISPA General List'" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, April 21, 2008 8:55 AM Subject: Re: [WISPA] tower lighting > Tower lighting is Regulated by the FCC, and I don't think they will change > the way they regulate towering lighting. > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of chris cooper > Sent: Monday, April 21, 2008 9:53 AM > To: 'WISPA General List' > Subject: [WISPA] tower lighting > > Does anyone know if there is a process/procedure at the commission that > citizens can engage to get a tower owner to change their lighting? > There is a new cell tower in my area (rural) that has white strobes that > is impacting the viewshed in the area.
