DCAN 14: Siting and Design of Radio Telecommunication Equipment
3.0 Siting and Design General Principles
3.1 PPS 10 emphasises that telecommunications development must be undertaken in a manner that minimises environmental impact and visual intrusion. This applies not just in environmentally sensitive areas, but to all proposals for telecommunications development. The aim is that the equipment should become an accepted and unobtrusive feature of urban and rural areas. Sensitive siting and design in both urban and rural areas can reduce visual intrusion and assist in allaying public concerns.
