Sec. 27.56 Antenna structures; air navigation safety.
A licensee that owns its antenna structure(s) must not allow such antenna
structure(s) to become a hazard to air navigation. In general, antenna
structure owners are responsible for registering antenna structures with the
FCC if required by part 17 of this chapter, and for installing and
maintaining any required marking and lighting. However, in the event of
default of this responsibility by an antenna structure owner, the FCC
permittee or licensee authorized to use an affected antenna structure will
be held responsible by the FCC for ensuring that the antenna structure
continues to meet the requirements of part 17 of this chapter. See Sec. 17.6 of
this chapter.
(a) Marking and lighting. Antenna structures must be marked, lighted and
maintained in accordance with part 17 of this chapter and all applicable
rules and requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration. For any
construction or alteration that would exceed the requirements of section
17.7 of this chapter, licensees must notify the appropriate Regional Office
of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA Form 7460–1) and file a request
for antenna height clearance and obstruction marking and lighting
specifications (FCC Form 854) with the FCC, WTB, 1270 Fairfield Road,
Gettysburg, PA 17325.
(b) Maintenance contracts. Antenna structure owners (or licensees and
permittees, in the event of default by an antenna structure owner) may enter
into contracts with other entities to monitor and carry out necessary
maintenance of antenna structures. Antenna structure owners (or licensees
and permittees, in the event of default by an antenna structure owner) that
make such contractual arrangements continue to be responsible for the
maintenance of antenna structures in regard to air navigation safety.
