Western Area Power Administration proposes to rebuild its existing communication facility called Black Mountain located north of Yuma in Imperial County, California. Western and U.S. Border Patrol share a 0.2-acre fenced compound and each has its own building, generator, propane tank and tower. Within the fence, Western plans to erect a temporary shelter, demolish Western's 216-square-foot building, support structures, and 40-foot tower, and construct a new 432-square-foot building, support structures, and 100-foot-tall tower.
