DEFINITIONS Au1!lorized Officer. The Forest Service employee with the delegated authority to issue and manage communications uses. The authorized officer is usually tbe District Ranger or Forest Supervisor of the unit on which the communications site is located. Co-location. Installation of telecommunications equipment in or on an existing communications facility or other structure. Communications Sileo An area of National Forest System (NFS) lands designated as an electronic site through the Forest Land and Resource Management planning process for telecommunications uses. A communications site may be limited to a single communications facility, but most often encompasses more than one. Each site is identified by name, usually denoting a local prominent landmark, such as Bald Mountain Communications Site. Customer. An individual, business. organization. or agency that is paying a facility owner or tenant for communications services and is not re-selling communications services to others. Private ("other communications use" category) and internal (private mobile radio service and non-commercial microwave categories) communications uses leasing space in a building and not re-selling communications services to others are considered customers for rental calculation purposes. Facility. A building, tower, or other physical improvement (buildings and towers do not have to be combined to be considered a facility) that is built or installed to bouse and support authorized communications equipment. Facility Manaier. The holder of a Forest Service communications use authorization who (1) owns a communications facility on NFS lands, (2) rents space in or on their facility to other communication users, but (3) does not own or operate their own communications equipment and they do not directly provide communications services to third parties. Persons or entities that manage or administer a communications facility on NFS lands for a facility owner or a facility manager are not facility managers for purposes of this communications site plan. Facility Owner. The holder of a Forest Service communications use authorization who (1) owns a communications facility on NFS lands, (2) mayor may not be renting space or equipment to other communications users in or on their facility, and (3) owns and operates their own communications equipment in their facility. Multiple-Use Facility. A communications site facility that has mUltiple communications uses operated directly by the facility owner or has customers or tenants in or on that facility. Page 4 0'32" ANTELOPE AT PINE MT COMMUNICATIONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN Ranally Metro Area. Geographic areas in the United States identified by Rand McNally in its Commercial Atlas and Marketing Guide that define population centers of 50,000 or more. There are approximately 450 Ranally Metro Areas (RMAs) in the United States. Seni~r Use. A communications use that predates another communications use. The most senior use or uses form the basis for the communications site designation. Single-Use Facility. A communications site facility that contains only the single communications use of the facility owner and no tenants or customers in or on the facility. Tenant. A communications user who rents space in a communications facility and operates communications equipment for the purpose of re-selling communications services to others for profit. Tenants may hold separate authorizations, without sub­ tenancy rights, at the full schedule rent based on the category of use. II. NARRATIVE A. Site Description Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communication Site is located on Bend·Ft. Rock Ranger District, Deschutes National Forest, Deschutes County, State of Oregon in NW1/4 Section 2~, T: 20 S. R. 15 E.. Willamette Meridian at approximately Latitude 43 0 48' 40" North, Longitude 110Q 52' 47" West. The elevation at Pine Mountain (Antelope) communications site is approximately 6350 feet above mean sea level (msl). The area for development is approximately 2.0 acres in size. Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communication Site is road accessible. This site does not serve a Ranally Metro Area (RMA). The population currently served currently less than 25,000 and is therefore Zone 9. The population identified for this Zone is updated annually by the Forest Service, Washington Office, Director of Lands. and is used to determine the annual rental fee due the Forest Service. The most senior use at this site is microwave and the site is designated as low power non broadcast. This site designation was established in an Environmental Assessment and Decision Notice approved by the Regional Forester in 1983. Deschutes National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan approved in August 1990 recognized the designation of the Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communication Site. The maximum power output for the Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communication Site is based on the maximum output allowed for two-way radio under the Federal Communications Commission's rules at Title 47, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 90. This plan supersedes the Pine Mountain (Antelope) Electronic Site Plan approved June 14,1985. Pal:ie 5 of 32 ANTELOPE AT PINE MT COMMUNICATIONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN B. Existing Site Development Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communications Site was allocated as an electronic site in 1983 by the Regional Forester. Two communication sites are located in the Pine Mountain area. The other site is identified as Pine Mountain (Observatory) Communications Site and is located approximately 1.9 miles southwest of the Antelope Site. Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) has operated a communication facility at the Pine Mountain (Antelope) since the late 1960's. Communication use by BPA was originally authorized by a Master Agreement signed by the Chief of the Forest Service on September 14,1966. The Memorandum of Understanding (MOV) was revised on July 19, 1967, February 29, 1969, and again on May, 30,1974. Currently, the Forest Service is working towards replacing the existing MOU with a special use permit as directed by national policy. Charter Communications Inc. operates a facility that was originally issued to Hi-Desert Microwave Inc. on May 6,1974 and reissued on June 30, 1983. The authorization was reissued to TCI Cablevision of Oregon on July 19, 1994 and reissued on March 20, 1997. The lease was assigned to Falcon Cable Systems in approximately 2005. Assignment of the lease from Falcon Cable Systems to Charter Communications Inc. is pending. Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) operates a facility that was originally authorized on September 29,1983 and reissued on February 1, 1994. The current authorization was issued on July 1, 1996. Century Link. operates a facility that was originally issued to Telephone Utilities of Eastern Oregon on July 17, 1989. Ownership of the facilities have changed several times and included Embarq, CenturyTel and now Century Link. The current authorization was issued on March 28, 1997. Pacific Power & Light (PP&L) was originally issued a permit for microwave communication facility on July 20, 1992. The current authorization was issued on July 16,1996. Deschutes County Sheriffs Department was authorized to operate a communication facility on February 2, 2004. RCC Atlantic dba Verizon Wireless operates a facility that was originally issued to Central Oregon Cellular One on January 3,1995. The authorization was reissued on July 31, 1996. The authorization was assigned to BMCT Triton, RCC Holdings,and the current holder is RCC Atlantic dba Verizon Wireless. On October 12, 2010, New Cingular WIreless dba ATT Mobility was issued a lease for permanent facilities at the Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communication Site. New Cingular Wireless dba A TT Mobility was authorized a temporary communication facility on Jan ANTELOPE AT PINE MT COMMUNICAnONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN 10,2011. See Appendix B for a current list of currently authorized facilities. C. Objectives The primary objectives of the Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communications Site Management Plan are to: 1. Document site management policy. procedures and standards, which are not already specified in the standard communication site lease. 2. Manage for low power communications uses only. The maximum power output expressed as ERP is based on the maximum output allowed for two-way radio under the Federal Communications Commission's rules at Title 47, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 90. As of the 2003 regulation, that is 500 watts ERP. Each use must operate at or below the power level authorized by their respective FCC license as long as it does not exceed the site limitation. 3. No continuously transmitting uses are authorized at this site, excluding microwave and controller channels used in support of mobile radio equipment 4. All uses must be designed, operated and maintained so as not to physically or electronically interfere with the senior uses. If new uses deteriorate the receiving/transmitting operation of existing uses, the new uses may be required to institute at their expense; additional studies, equipment upgrades, frequency isolation, or physically separate themselves from the existing uses. 5. Present a program for operation within the site. 6. Help fulfi)] the public need for adequate communication sites. 7. Protect the interests of leaseholders and site users by preserving a safe and an electronically "clean" environment. 8. Encourage the efficient development and use of space and facilities within the designated site. subject to the USPS goal to provide the best possible public service at reasonable cost. 9. Authorize new Tenant andlor Customer uses that can physically and electronically be accommodated within existing buildings andlor towers. 10. Maintain visual resource objectives by requiring design standards that are unobtrusive and by utilizing earth tone colors and non-reflective surface material consistent with the standards in the Land and Resource Management Plan. 11. Amend this Communications Site Plan as necessary to be consistent with future Forest Land and Resource Management Plans. The Forest Service will provide ANTELOPE AT PINE MY COMMUNICATIONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN authorization holders with proposed amendments to this plan and will allow a reasonable period of time for the holders to review and comment on the proposed changes. ill. AUTHORITY AND JURISDICTION A. AuthoOtY Forest Service authority to authorize and manage communications uses on National Forest System lands derives from the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S. C. 1761-1771); Title 36, Code of Federal Regulations, part 251, subpart B (36 CPR 251, subpart B); Forest Service Manual (FSM) 2700; and Forest Service Handbook (FSH) 2709.11, chapter 90. The Forest Service has jurisdiction over the use and occupancy of National Forest System (NFS) lands for communications purposes under the National Forest Management Act (NFMA) of 1976 (16 U.S.C. 1600 et seq.); the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA) of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), and Title 36, Code of FederaL Regulations, part 251, Subpart B (36 CFR part 251, subpart B). The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has jurisdiction over the use of non­ Federal channels of radio and television transmission under licenses granted by the FCC. The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) has jurisdiction over the use of Federal channels of radio transmission under authorizations granted by the NTIA. The issuance of an FCC license or NTIA authorization does not authorize the use and occupancy of NFS lands. A Forest Service special use authorization is required for the use and occupancy of NFS lands for communications purposes. The Forest Service has jurisdiction over resolution of conflicts associated with the use and occupancy ofNFS lands, such as those involving location and re-radiation. The FCC and NTIA are not responsible for resolving occupancy conflicts associated with the use and occupancy of NFS lands or the resolution of other conflicts when entities are operating within the limits of their FCC license or NTIA authorization. However, the FCC or the NTIA may be useful in assisting in the resolution of interference problems or other frequency conflicts. ~8:of32 ANTELOPE AT PINE MT COMMUNICATIONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN IV. RIGHTS AND RESPONSmILITIES A. The Forest Service The Forest Service retains the responsibility for issuing and amending authorizing instruments to Facility Owners and Facility Managers for the authorized improvements.

All transmitters shall meet FCC licensing requirements. The fe-radiation of intercepted signals from any unprotected transmitter and its associated antenna system shall be prevented by the use of appropriate filters, typically bandpass filters, circulators, and/or harmonic filters. The direct radiation of out-of-band emissions (noise or spurious harmonics) shall be reduced to a level such that it may not be identified as a source of interference as defined in FCC Regulations (47 CPR 9O.209(e). If site noise (electromagnetic noise) becomes an issue. noise threshold limits shall be established. and amended into the Site Plan. All transmitters not in immediate use and not specifically designated as standby equipment shall be removed. Loads connected to circulators shall be capable of dissipating the total power output of the transmitter. ANTELOPE AT PINE MT COMMUNICATIONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN . 3. Receiving Equipment A bandpass device, such as a cavity or crystal fliter, is recommended at the input of all receiving devices. Cavity fliters or other protective devices may be used at receiver inputs to reduce interference. Where duplexing is used, a notch-type device should be avoided. In situations where a notch-type device is used, a bandpass fliter shall be used on both the receiver and transmitter. 4. Antennas a. Microwave (dish) antennas and other than ground-mounted satellite dishes shall not exceed 10 feet. b. All antennas shall meet all OSHA safety standards. If an antenna is operating in excess of FCC public or occupations standards, steps will be taken. such as fencing, posting of signs. relocation, lowering power levels, within 24 hours to bring it into compliance. Ground measurements of RFR levels will be taken before mitigatiop measures are implemented. c. Colors for dish antennas or covers shall be pre-approved by the authorized officer. White dish antennas and covers will not be approved. Existing white dishes and covers shall be repainted or replaced as repairs or replacement become necessary. d. Antennas shalJ be treated to reduce or eliminate reflected glare. e. Low-powered transmit and receive antennas may be located low on the tower or on the ground. 5. Interference The responsibility for correcting interference problems lies with the holder of the communications site authorization for the facility. the user causing the interference. and the affected parties. Generally. the first users at a site have seniority with respect to resolution of interference complaints. Senior users have an obligation to maintain their equipment to industry standards, to operate their systems in accordance with the terms of both the FCC license and NTIA/1RAC frequency authorization, and to comply with the Forest Service communications site authorization. New users at a site shall correct, at their expense, interference problems that they create. They shall cease operation of the suspect equipment until the problem is corrected. If interference problems cannot be resolved or corrected within a reasonable time, the new use that is causing the interference may be terminated and the equipment removed. ANTELOPE AT PINE MT COMMUNICATIONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN If a Site Users Association is formed, all users shall cooperate with the Forest Service in the identification and correction of any interference. The Forest Service does not have any responsibility for correcting interference problems, but can act as a mediator to help all affected parties. Interference problems should be coordinated with the FCC or NTIA, as appropriate. Interference with law enforcement and emergency communications shall be corrected immediately. Operation of equipment covered by this site plan shall not interfere with Federal Government radio or electronic operations already in existence on National Forest System lands within two miles of the Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communications Site. The user causing this interference shall at their own expense take all actions necessary to prevent or eliminate the interference. If they do not eliminate the interference within ten days after receipt of notice from the Forest Service to do so, their use will be terminated. If electromagnetic noise becomes an issue, noise thresholds shall be established and incorporated as an amendment to this site plan. The cost of such analysis is the responsibility of the lease holders. D. Cables and Transmission Lines All new cabling shall be jacketed and shielded and shall either be flexible or semi-rigid. Existing substandard cables shall be upgraded as repairs or replacement become necessary. Cables shall be properly installed, strapped, and fastened down. Cable runs should be consistent with applicable engineering standards when attaching cables onto a tower. All transmission lines (wave guides) shall be supported in accordance with manufacturer'S specifications. Unjacketed transmission lines or unjacketed cables of any type are prohibited. No transmission lines shall be left unterminated. Double-shielded braided or solid-shielded cable shall be used. No RG-8 cable is permitted.

Buildings shall be posted with a 24-bour contact phone number(s) on the main door(s) into the building wbere appropriate. I. Site Maintenanse The objectives of site maintenance are to present a clean, neat, and orderly appearance at the site and to have all the authorized improvements at the site be safe for workers and the public. All users are responsible for maintaining the overall appearance of the site. Miscellaneous debris remaining after any construction or installation, removal or modification of equipment is not only a hazard but can cause interference or intermodulation problems. All loose debris must be removed from the site within 30 days after completing construction, reconstruction, or other activities. In particular, all loose wire or metal objects shall be removed from the site. The users of the site shall remove graffiti within ten working days of finding it. If graffiti is on natural features, such as rocks and trees, site users will remove graffiti using a method approved by the authorized officer. Page 210'32 ANTELOPE AT PINE MT COMMUNICATIONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN Holders may not leave or dispose of trash, garbage, or cut brush on NFS lands. No outside trash or litter containers are allowed. Site users shall remove all trash and Utter from the site as it is produced. Policing of litter in common areas, such as the areas between buildings and developed sites, is the shared responsibility of those holders bordering these areas. Peeling paint on buildings and towers shall be re-painted within thirty days of discovery or as soon as possible as allowed by weather conditions. J. Inspections Unless waived in writing by the authorized officer, the holder shall annually conduct an inspection of the facilities and equipment covered by the authorization. The inspection shall include a technical review that should ensure that all authorized equipment is operating in accordance with requirement of this site plan, the applicable FCC license or NTIA authorization, ANSI standards, and the manufacturer's specifications. ill addition, the inspection should ensure that the authorized equipment is secure, free of rust, properly grounded, and otherwise properly operated and maintained. A copy of the inspection report shall be provided to the authorized officer within 30 days of completion of the inspection. The Forest Service may also conduct periodic reviews to monitor for authorization compliance. K. Fire Prevention and Hazard Reduction Requirements Facility owners and facility managers will be required to control vegetation within the fenced or immediate area around their facilities. GraveVmineral soil (Le. bare ground or mowed vegetation) must be maintained to a minimum of (10) feet clearance around buildings and a minimum of (10) feet clearance around any propane tanks. Identified threatened, endangered, or sensitive plant species must remain within the minimum clearance areas. Smoking is prohibited in flammable vegetation areas. Roof structures shall be kept reasonably clear of debris at all times. No explosives will be stored at this site. Flammable materials shall be stored in conformance with the requirements of local fire regulations. Flammables will be placed in closed containers and stored away from sources of ignition and combustible materials. If flammables are stored within a building, the building will be locked, properly signed and well ventilated. Approved spark arresters will be required and maintained on all internal combustion engines. ANTELOPE AT PINE MT COMMUNICATIONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN At least one (1) U.L. rated 20 lb. A:B:C dry chemical fire extinguisher is required inside each building. Prior to each June, fire extinguisher(s) shall be inspected by holders and refilled, if necessary. Any fire will be immediately reported to "911", the nearest Forest Service office and/or Deschutes County Sheriffs Office. Forest Service Officers will make periodic fire prevention inspections. They will call to the holder's attention any lack of compliance with the above regulations, plus any other existing hazards. Compliance with these inspections is required within the time limits specified in the inspection report. All fire protection standards must be accomplished by the beginning of frre season unless otherwise agreed to, and then maintained throughout the frre season. For new construction. the Forest Service will provide the Holder with a separate Construction Frre Plan which will be prepared at that time as applicable. State and local laws/regulations must be followed for the diesel tank installation. L. Ac~ 1. Road Holders who damage the access road, or any of its associated improvements. such as ditches, culverts, roadside vegetation, signs, and underground utilities and facilities, shall be required to repair the road to conditions equal to or superior to those prior to any damage or disturbance. Access to Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communication Site is from Bend, Oregon at the junction of Highway 20 and Highway 97. From Bend, drive east on Highway 20 for approximately 25 miles; turn right (south) onto county road #2017 (Pine Mountain Road) and go 3.3 miles; stay left onto FS100 and go 1.9 miles; stay left onto FS160 and go 1.2 miles to Pine Mountain (Antelope) communications site. The Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communications Site is located approximately 26 air miles southeast of Bend and driving time is approximately 45 minutes. 2. Internal Roads and Parking Areas Internal roads and parking areas within the communications site are the responsibility of the site users. Interior roads and parking areas shall be planned and approved by the authorized officer in conjunction with establishment of new facilities. Interior roads shall be maintained so as to allow only one entrance to the site. The intent is to discourage off-road vehicle use in and around the site. ANTELOPE AT PINE MT COMMUNICATIONS SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN 3. Road Closures Forest Service roads are subject to periodic closures to entry during periods of extreme fue danger. inclement weather. or wetness. Site users may access the site during these closures if they have prior, written approval from the authorized officer. IX. SITE ASSOCIATION AND ADVISORY GROUP A Site Association may be desirable for the Pine Mountain (Antelope) Communication Site as issues arise in the future requiring more user coordination. It may also be desirable to include the communication users on the private land for coordination on the following common issues. If formed in the future, the Site Association would be responsible for obtaining access, maintenance and upkeep of internal roads and parking areas. The Site Association would also be responsible for ensuring cooperation between users for on-tower access. A Site Safety officer would be identified within the Site Association. The Site Association would be expected to develop a Radiofrequency Radiation Plan/Agreement and recommend measures to reduce interference issues (e.g., through use of filters). The goal of the Site Association would also be to maximize the effective use of the site. The objective of a sanctioned association will be to represent all site users as a group when dealing with the Bend-Ft. Rock Ranger District Office on matters relating to the Site administration. The association would be able to work in cooperation with the Forest Service to identify problems or opportunities and make recommendations to these entities for any changes in management strategies at the site. The association could also provide input to these entities regarding the future addition of equipment and facilities at the site. While the advice and recommendations of the association would not be binding on these entities, they could use the input for administration of the site. The Forest Service would be a member of such a group and would help jointly develop the charter (Le., the ground rules).
