	Commission Opinion: Tower Trading, L.P.: Rel. No. 34-47537 / March 19, 2003
		Although Tower's counsel asked Dempsey whether he and his firm participated in the survey evaluations of Tower, Kaminsky sustained Committee counsel's objection to this line of questioning on the ground that, "in order to maintain its integrity," the survey was anonymous.
		Tower further asserts that the Committee made it impossible for Tower to confront and cross-examine witnesses by refusing to allow Tower to examine the questionnaires to determine whether comments read by Kaminsky into the record were accurate, representative, or from multiple sources.
		Tower implicitly argues that, even if survey anonymity is permissible, it should have been allowed to inspect the questionnaires, as the identity of a survey respondent is not disclosed on the questionnaire form.

		Further, the Commission's tower registration data base indicates that Morgan registered the Stenton Avenue tower on January 27, 1999,8 assigned ASR number 1060096.
		We conclude that Morgan's Stenton Avenue tower did not have an exemption from the Commission's painting and lighting requirements and that Morgan violated Section 17.21(a) of the Rules by failing to paint and light its tower.
		As the Commission stated in Seawest Yacht Brokers, 9 FCC Rcd 6099, 6099 (1994), ``corrective action taken to come into compliance with Commission rules or policy is expected, and does not nullify or mitigate any prior forfeitures or violations.''12 10.

		Commission records showed that the 180.9 meter tower's ASR number was assigned to the 312.8 meter tower.
		Commission records further indicated that SpectraSite was the owner of both towers.
		SpectraSite also argues that the forfeiture for its failure to light the 312.8 meter tower should be reduced because SpectraSite took remedial measures to correct the lighting outage prior to notification from the Commission, and that in fact, it had previously made an appointment with contractors for November 7, 2002, to restore the tower's lighting.

		Commission investigators zeroed in on a confusing 17-minute span between when the first and second towers were struck, as people in the south tower, hit second, received contradictory instructions about whether to evacuate.
		In the north tower, chiefs ordered an evacuation, which many firefighters didn't hear because their radio channel was overwhelmed, they were listening to the wrong channel or they had been off duty and didn't have their radios.
		Commission investigators played on a large screen a videotaped interview of Brian Clark, who worked in the north tower and recalled being put on hold twice by 911 operators who said he needed to talk to a supervisor as he tried to alert them to an injured person on the 44th floor.

		The tower is considered a non-conforming structure because, at 97 feet, it exceeds the maximum allowed height of 45 feet in the CS zone.

	Nationwide Programmatic Agreement : Introduction
		The tower constructor, however, may not begin construction until the adverse effect is resolved.
		Tower constructors expressed the concern that, because the definition of historic property in the statute appears to be so broad that nearly any building or structure, more than fifty years in age might qualify.
		For tower constructors, the Nationwide Agreement streamlines the review process by eliminating reviews where adverse effects are very unlikely, such as along utility corridor rights-of-way and in industrial and commercial areas.

	UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
		The decision was appealed to the City Commission, which held public hearings on the issue, received correspondence from neighbors near the proposed site, and hired an independent consultant to study the issue.
		The City's evidence concerning the effect of the tower on property values is primarily, like the evidence on aesthetics, opinions of the neighbors and anecdotal evidence of the neighbors.
		Finally, another neighbor testified that the tower would sit in the middle of the flight path of migratory birds and that the tower was very near where herons have been nesting for several years.

	New Jersey Pinelands Commission \| CMP Tower Regulations
		Towers As "Optional" Use: Municipalities, under the Pinelands Plan, have the option of whether to accept such facilities and where to put them (as long as the sites are consistent with the Pinelands rules, see below.) However, variances for such uses have been determined to be "inherently beneficial uses" by state courts.
		For such impacts, the effects of radiation may not be considered (due to the State's passage of the Radiation Protection Act.) Recent Federal legislation further constrains the ability of both the Pinelands Commission and municipalities to ban communication facilities.
		Least number analysis: The Commission has contracted with an outside expert to help evaluate whether the plan truly proposes the least number of towers.
