New Single Tower Construction

TELUS COMMUNICATIONS INC is proposing to construct a 45 meter telecommunication tower to provide a broadband mobile service along 24 km of Hwy 20 that would benefit the community of Tsideldel (Redstone Flat 1) First Nation. An antenna will be mounted at the top of the tower. The antenna will operate in the 0.850 and 1.900 GHz frequency bands. All 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.
