                Statement and Explanation of Exemption for FAA Notification


1. As stated in Title 47, CFR, part 17.14, certain antenna structures are exempt from notification to the
   Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). For this particular application, a notification to the FAA is
   specifically not required pursuant to part 17.14 (a):

            Any object that would be shielded by existing structures of a permanent
            and substantial character or by natural terrain or topographic features
            of equal or greater height, and would be located in the congested area of
            a city, town, or settlement where it is evident beyond all reasonable
            doubt that the structure so shielded will not adversely affect safety in air
            navigation....


2. Part 17 further states that:

            Applicant claiming such exemption under Sec. 17.14(a) shall submit a
            statement with their application to the FCC explaining basis in detail for
            their finding.

    The proposed antenna meets the criteria as set forth in section 17.14 (a) due to the following factors:


        A. The antenna height is approximately 8.5 meters AGL. The immediately adjacent
           telecommunications (co-location) facility is approximately 13.7 meters AGL. The antenna
           will therefore “be shielded by existing structures of a permanent and substantial character.”


        B. The antenna is located in a “congested area of a city, town, or settlement where it is evident
           beyond all reasonable doubt that the structure so shielded will not adversely affect safety in
           air navigation.” The antenna is located in an established industrial park and is completely
           surrounded by commercial buildings and residential development.
