The Proposed Project

New (Single) Tower Construction

Bell Mobility Inc is proposing the construction of a 36 m telecommunication tower to provide high-speed mobile wireless coverage to the Conseil des Atikamekw de Wemotaci community. Antennas will be mounted at the top of the tower. The antennas will operate in the 0.7, 1.9 and 2.1 GHz frequency bands. All of the equipment necessary to operate this facility will be housed in a small equipment cabinet located on site. This tower may undergo future modifications or the addition/replacement of antennas.
