Shasta Bally Communications Site EA
This Environmental Assessment (EA) will evaluate five alternatives: a No Action Alternative and four Action Alternatives. The No Action Alternative describes the current condition of the project site and would continue telecommunications operations with the existing disturbed area (site) without significant changes and without issuance of Right of Way Permits (ROW) by the National Park Service (NPS). However, existing tenants could not continue to operate without a permit from the National Park Service. The action alternatives consist of Alternative B, where all existing permit applicants will continue to use the site, Alternative C would allow all existing permit applicants to continue to use the site in the short term, but the site would be phased out over a set time period (e.g. 20-30 years), Alternative D would let all existing permit applicants to continue to use the site and allow new permittees to co-locate on existing infrastructure. Alternative F, the Preferred Alternative, would allow all existing permit applicants to continue to use the site, new permittees would be able to co-locate on existing infrastructure, and installation of new infrastructure would be allowed within the existing site in previously disturbed areas not currently being utilized.
