Bonneville Power Administration proposes to allow Sprint Corporation to upgrade their antennas and equipment at existing wireless sites on Bonneville Power Administration towers. The work would consist of removing six antennas at each site and replacing those with three new, slightly larger antennas. Remote radio heads would be added to the antenna mounts and new coaxial cables would be installed, connecting the remote radio heads to existing equipment located on the ground, beneath, or adjacent to the tower base. To ensure safety, Bonneville Power Administration workers and subcontractors would complete the wireless antenna and coaxial cable installation work.
