The National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 requires federal agencies to
comply with certain environmental regulations. The Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) has outlined these compliance
requirements for facilities under their governance.
The FCC / NEPA
Environmental Compliance Checklist
The FCC / NEPA
Environmental Compliance Survey
These forms are used in
compliance with the NEPA regulations. The investigation also includes:
Biological Evaluation, Project Review by US Fish and Wildlife Service,
and a Cultural Resources Survey. Communication with the State Historic
Preservation Office, the Governor's office, and Indian Tribal Councils
as necessary, are also included in the NEPA process.
There may be other
documents and communication necessary for specific sites, depending on
the location and history of the site.
Foree & Vann, Inc.
is available to perform these services for you or to guide you in
finding appropriate agencies to assist you during your pre-construction
and construction stages for communications towers.
