INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING FAA FORM 7460-1
PLEASE
TYPE or PRINT
ITEM #1.
Please
include the name, address, and phone number of a personal contact point as well
as the company name.
ITEM #2.
Please
include the name, address, and phone number of a personal contact point as well
as the company name.
ITEM #3.
New
Construction would be a structure that has not yet been built.
Alteration
is a change to an existing structure such as the addition of a side mounted
antenna, a change to the marking and
lighting, a change to power and/or frequency, or a change to the height. The nature of the alternation shall be
included in ITEM #21 "Complete
Description of Proposal".
Existing
would be a correction to the
latitude and/or longitude, a correction to the height, or if filing on an
existing structure which has never been studied by the FAA. The reason for the notice shall be included
in ITEM #21 "Complete
Description of Proposal".
ITEM #4.
If
Permanent, so indicate. If Temporary,
such as a crane or drilling derrick, enter the estimated length of time the
temporary structure will be up.
ITEM #5.
Enter
the date that construction is expected to start and the date that construction
should be completed.
ITEM #6.
Please
indicate the type of structure. DO NOT LEAVE
BLANK.
ITEM #7.
In
the event that obstruction marking and lighting is required, please indicate
type desired. If no preference, check
"other' and indicate "no preference'. DO
NOT LEAVE BLANK. NOTE: High intensity lighting shall be used only for structures over
500'AGL. In the absence of high
intensity lighting for structures over 500' AGL, marking is also required.
ITEM #8.
If
this is an existing tower that has been registered with the FCC, enter the FCC
Antenna Structure Registration number here.
ITEM #9. and #10. Latitude and longitude must be geographic
coordinates, accurate to within the nearest second or to the nearest hundredth
of a second if known. Latitude and
longitude derived solely from a
hand-held GPS instrument is NOT acceptable. A hand-held GPS is only
accurate to within 100 meters (328 feet) 95
per cent of the time. This data, when
plotted, should match the site depiction submitted under ITEM #20.
ITEM #11.
NAD
83 is preferred; however, latitude/longitude may be submitted in NAD 27. Also, in some geographic areas where NAD 27
and NAD 83 are not available other datums may be used. It is important to know which datum is
used. DO NOT LEAVE BLANK.
ITEM #12.
Enter
the name of the nearest city/state to the site. If the structure is or will be in a city, enter the name of that
city/state.
ITEM#13.
Enter
the full name of the nearest public-use (not private-use) airport (or heliport)
or military airport (or heliport) to the site.
ITEM #14.
Enter
the distance from the airport or
heliport listed in #13 to the structure.
ITEM #15.
Enter
the direction from the airport or
heliport listed in #13 to the structure.
ITEM #16.
Enter
the site elevation above mean sea level and expressed in whole feet rounded to the nearest foot (e.g. 17' 3" rounds to
17', 17'6" rounds to 18'). This
data should match the ground contour elevations for site depiction submitted
under ITEM #20.
ITEM #17.
Enter
the total structure height above ground
level in whole feet rounded to
the next highest foot (e.g.
17'3" rounds to 18'). The total
structure height shall include anything mounted on top of the structure, such
as antennas, obstruction lights, lightning rods, etc.
ITEM #18.
Enter
the overall height above mean sea level and expressed in whole feet. This will be
the total of ITEM #16 + ITEM #17.
ITEM #19.
If an
FAA aeronautical study was previously conducted, enter the previous study
number.
ITEM #20.
Enter
the relationship of the structure to roads, airports, prominent terrain,
existing structures, etc. Attach an 8-1/2"
X 11" non-reduced copy of the appropriate 7.5 minute U.S. Geological
Survey (USGS) Quadrangle Map MARKED WITH A PRECISE INDICATION OF THE SITE
LOCATION. To obtain maps, Contact USGC
at 1-800-435-7627 or via Internet at "http://mapping.usgs.gov". If available, attach a copy of a documented
site survey with the surveyor's certification stating the amount of vertical
and horizontal accuracy in feet.
ITEM #21.
·
For
transmitting stations, include maximum effective radiated power (ERP) and all
frequencies.
·
For
antennas, include the type of antenna and center of radiation (Attach the antenna pattern, if available).
·
For
microwave, include azimuth relative to true north.
·
For
overhead wires or transmission lines, include size and configuration of wires
and their supporting structures (Attach
depiction).
·
For
each pole/support, include
coordinates, site elevation, and structure height above ground level or water.
·
For
buildings, include site orientation, coordinates of each corner, dimensions, and construction materials,
·
For
alterations, explain the alteration thoroughly,
·
For
existing structures, thoroughly explain the reason for notifying the FAA (e.g. corrections, no record of previous
study, etc.).

Filing this information with the FAA does
not relieve the sponsor of this construction or alteration from complying
with any other federal state or local rules or regulations. If you are not sure what other rules or
regulations apply to your proposal, contact local/state aviation and zoning
authorities. |

Paperwork Reduction Work Act Statement: This information is
collected to evaluate the effect of proposed construction or alteration on
air navigation and is not confidential. Providing this information is
mandatory for anyone proposing construction or alteration that meets or
exceeds the criteria contained in 14 CFR , part 77. We estimate that the
burden of this collection is an
average 19 minutes per response. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a
person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless R
displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control number for
