This analysis has been performed in accordance with the Crown Castle Structural `Statement of Work' and the terms of Crown Castle Purchase Order Number 139068. The purpose of the analysis is to determine the suitability of the tower upon adding nine (9) proposed panel antennas on a 12' platform mount at 110' when combined with the existing and reserved equipment on the structure. This analysis has been performed in accordance with the TWIEIA 222-F standard and local code requirements based upon a wind speed condition of 80 MPH. Based on our analysis we have determined the tower structure and foundation are sufficient for the proposed loading. Vertical Strictures appreciates the opportunity of providing our continuing professional services to you and Crown Castle Intemational. If you have any questions or need further assistance on this or any other projects please give us a call. Res liy submitt Darren Meyers ST ; Project Engineer ua h�4 9 6 Agawam Repartdoc • i Omnipoint Holdings, Inc., a division of ST • -Mobile Project Narrative Description Locus: The subject site will function as a wireless telephone communications site within a local, regional and national communications system. This system operates under license from the Federal government, specifically the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and is mandated to provide service to the general public to operate, in effect, as a public communications utility. In summary, this proposed installation would consist of the addition of a set of PCS antennae onto an approved monopole tower and placing three (3) associated electronic equipment cabinets — known as BTS units — within the existing compound at the base of the tower. The facility is to be located at the property known as 628 Meadow Street Extension in the northeast part of Agawam. PROPOSED ADDITION TO APPROVED FACILITY: There is a monopole tower existing at the site that is approximately 177 feet tall' with antenna arrays owned by the telecommunications carriers Verizon, Nextel, AT&T and Cingular located thereon. T ••Mobile= is proposing to install an array of panel antennas at the 110-foot level2 along with computer equipment to be placed within the existing compound. The accompanying plans included at Tab 7 provide detail of the location of the proposed and existing antenna and computer equipment. BTS UNfr: T- ;Mobile's three (3) radio control cabinets will be located inside the fenced-in area near the base of the existing monopole. The approximate dimensions of the BTS unit are seventy (70) inches tall, fifty-one (51) inches wide and thirty-seven (37) inches deep. Telephone and electric connections will be made from the BTS unit to utilities that have already been brought to the site from the existing facilities. SITE FEATURES' The proposed T- -IMobilet installation will not produce any noise or hazardous waste. The facility is unoccupied and will be visited only once a month for the first six months by a technician. Maintenance visits after the initial six months of operation are 1 Inclusion of the existing 5' lightning rod brings the total height to 182 feet above ground level(AGL). 2 The `rad center" or center line of the antennae is proposed to be located at the 110' level. The 72" antennae will extend approximately 3 feet above and below the rad center. Therefore the top of the antennae will be at approximately 113'AGL. intermittent. There will be no change in circulation patterns within the surrounding area and the proposed T •-Mobile-,facility will not impact pedestrians. The proposed use of the site as a wireless telephone communications site will not create sufficient demand for the addition of new parking spaces since site visits, as noted, will be infrequent. Neither land nor water resources are affected by this construction. No effluent or emissions occur as a result of the cabinet and antenna equipment installation and operation. Air quality is likewise unaffected The transmission of radio waves will not disturb other radio transmission or reception devices, as regulated by the FCC. The T•-Mobile, installation does not require sewer, water, drainage or other utilities save for electric and telephone service. The communications installation will not burden municipal services such as police, fine or the school system. T••Mobile personnel at regional switching stations will monitor the BTS equipment cabinet for malfunction or tampering. 2 • 4 The Commonwealth of Massachusef#s ExecuMm Office of Health and Human Services Department of Public Health Radiation Control Program 174 Portland Street, 5�' Floor, Boston, MA 02114.

The facility will include co-locating on a existing 177-feet monopole with an antenna array placed at 110-feet ( RAD Center); T-Mobile will construct a facility which includes (9) panel antenna and related BTS equipment in the town of Sturbridge,MA. 1. I am a Radio Frequency Engineer employed by T-Mobile. I am responsible for radio frequency engineering,design and optimization in Massachusetts. 2. T-Mobile is a communications venture committed to providing wireless personal communications services (PCs) using Global System Mobile Communications (GSM) technology. GSM technology is a new generation of wireless service that uses digital transmission to improve the services available. I In order to meet its obligations under the radio license T-Mobile purchased at auction from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), T-Mobile must have in place a system of "cell sites" to serve portable wireless communication handsets and mobile telephones. These cell sites consist of antennas mounted on a pole, building, or other structures that are connected by cables to a small equipment cabinet located near the antenna..The antenna feeds • the radio signal received from mobile receivers (such as telephones) to equipment located in the cabinet and to ordinary phone lines from which the transmission may be routed anywhere in the world. 4. Cell sites are a vital and necessary part of the infrastructure in T-Mobile's network. To maintain effective, uninterrupted service to a mobile device user in a given area,.there must be a continuous interconnected series of cell sites that overlap slightly in a grid pattern. Additionally, each cell site must be Iocated within a limited area so that it can adequately interact with all surrounding cell sites and,thereby, provide reliable coverage throughout the cell. 5. In compliance with the requirements of the FCC license, T-Mobile is actively building its PCs network to provide coverage throughout Massachusetts. In order to meet its responsibility of providing seamless, uninterrupted service, T-Mobile must continue to acquire interest in sites for additional facilities, and is appiymg for and obtaining local governmental zoning approvals to construct the sites in order to eliminate gaps in service coverage. Any delays severely curtail T-Mobile's ability to satisfy both mandated time requirements, and to achieve a market position that will allow it to compete for customers with other similar companies also issued licenses to operate in this area.. b. Using precise computer prediction models, a wireless transmission facility at the Agawam would facilitate PCS communications for the Meadow St, Agawam local facility and along Route I-91, Rout 57 and surrounding areas of Agawam. Other characteristics which combine to create a unique radio frequency site are the topography, an unobstructed line of site, and location; i.e., within the narrow search area specified by T-Mobile's service area computer model, which make it especially suitable for T-Mobile 's wireless telecommunications facility. 7. In my professional opinion,without a wireless transmission facility located at or very near the site, this area of Agawam not have adequate coverage, also there will be a substantial gap in T--Mobile's wireless PCS coverage. This gap would adversely impact the service T-Mobile is able to provide the residents of Agawam , drivers on Route I-91, Route 57 and on the local roads. The result of such a gap would be an abrupt and complete loss of signal at the time the wireless receiver enters the gap area. The transmission is not restored when the receiver re- enters an area with adequate coverage. Rather, the communication must be reinitiated. Also, T-Mobile's customers attempting to utilize their telephones would not have enough signal strength to do so. S. The Radio frequency exposure levels generated by the proposed facility are substantially below the applicable health and safety standards.established by the Federal Communications Commission (hereinafter "FCC") and the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (hereinafter"DPH"). i9. The proposed wireless communications equipment will be installed, erected, maintained and used in compliance with all applicable Federal, State and local regulations, including,but not limited to: the radio frequency emissions regulations set forth in the 1996 Federal Communications Act, applicable regulations administered by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Massachusetts Aeronautics Commission and the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. All equipment proposed is authorized per the FCC Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of Radio Frequency Radiation. 10. Based upon the best radio frequency technology available to T-Mobile at this time, it is my professional opinion that the proposed project is at the minimum height needed to ensure adequate PCS service to area residents and business in accordance with system specifications. 4 Executed this 2nd day of June,2003. ik Amir Uzzaman Radio Frequency Engineer T-Mobile Wireless Hampden SS Commonwealth of Massacbusetts Subscribed and sworn to before me by AMIR UZZAMAN who acknowledged the above instrument as his free act and deed this 2"d day of June,2003 r blicammissian Expires: 2 1 i t s = i s y d `y lti � rti Sk = 10092-221 80756 TBE COMMON KTALTH OF.Mr#SSA,CHUSETTS C YOR To"W . 12""'"oe—13 37 2 10228 BOARD OrFAPPEALS Mt.
