Staging Area Preparation |
Staging area has to be prepared for tower rigging to hoist old antenna and waveguide down and hoist new antenna and transmission line up. |
Winching Services |
Heavy rains during construction over the past several months have caused delivery problems with trucks getting stuck in the mud and then having to call in winching services to assist leaving the site |
All-terrain Personnel Lift |
Will require the rental of an all- terrain personnel lift (man-lift) in order to remove the waveguide from horizontal supports (ice bridge). Then will require the use of it to install new transmission line into the horizontal supports. |
30000 lb Excavator Rental |
Require the rental of a 30,000 lb excavator to assist with the removal of the old antenna and installation of the new antenna |
Road Preparation |
One-mile ingress and egress must be made capable of handling heavy truck transportation into and out of the tower site. |
Crane and Crane Operator |
Will require the rental of a crane to lift the new antenna off the truck transportation at the site. Then place the antenna in position for rigging and hoisting. |
10 Ton All-terrain Folk Lift |
Require the rental of 10- ton all- terrain folk lift to assist the moving of the old and new transmitters in and out of the transmitter building |
