![]() On June 28, 2007 Industry Canada released its long-awaited new policy and procedures on towers and antenna siting, entitled CPC-2-0-03, Radiocommunication and Broadcasting Antenna Systems, Issue 4, June 2007. The new procedures will come into effect on 1 January 2008. Radio amateurs should note that until then, the current CPC-2-0-03, Issue 3, June 24, 1995,remains in effect. Radio Amateurs of Canada (RAC) has been an active participant in the national review of antenna tower policies initiated by Industry Canada in March 2003, and in the subsequent many and varied spectrum-user stakeholders' meetings that reviewed and commented on the initial draft policy. The new CPC-2-0-03 was released by the Department without a final review by tower proponents despite their requests. Therefore RAC is now analyzing the new tower policy and procedures and will describe their impact for the Amateur Service in an upcoming issue of The Canadian Amateur. Radio amateurs are invited to read the new policy at: http://strategis.ic.gc.ca/epic/site/..._sf01702e.html and to comment to Jim Dean, VE3IQ and Richard Ferch, VE3KI/VE3IAY at and , respectively. ---------- Sent by the RAC Bulletins from RACHQ mailing list robot.

A lot of stuff for sure. I assumed that you were talking about the first link on the page. I think your Zepp is safe, unless you sre supporting it with two towers. While there is a lot of verbiage, the requirements read pretty much like what a lot of us have to do in the States with tower installations. Maybe a bit more on environmental impact, and certainly indigenous impact. but not a whole lot different. Thanks the cell phone folks for prompting such rules. 8^) - 73 de Mike, KB3EIA - Well, it's not an immediate problem as I don't move to Canada until I retire (agreement with my Canadian wife), but my reading of the document was that the process was required for any antenna type, not just "structures" going up...maybe I didn't read closely enough.

While there are some scary parts about "notifying the neighbors", they have things pretty well spelled out about what constitutes a good reason to dissalow an antenna. Like "how will it affect my property value" as an unacceptable argument on the neighbors part. Some other parts seem to allow a lot of leeway for the local gvmt to just say "go ahead"if you are in a sparse area. - 73 de Mike KB3EIA - |
