Cell tower construction may have visual impacts on historic resources and may effect archaeological sites. FCC licenses and certifications for cell towers are federal actions subject to compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Presrvation Act (NHPA), and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
