High Mast Light Pole-6
Frederick, MD · near Frederick Health Hospital (1.8 mi)
What this outcome means
The FAA studied the proposal and concluded it would not be a hazard to air navigation. A no-hazard determination is not permanent — it carries an expiration date, and if the structure is not built by then the case has to be re-filed.
The proposal, in the filer's words
"This project will upgrade the current lighting infrastructure at the Frederick Triangle interchanges at I-70 and I-270 to enhance nighttime traffic safety. The scope of this task continues the work completed in Preliminary Design to prepare the final Plans Specifications and Estimate (PS&E) materials needed for project advertisement.\n\nThe project will be constructing 9 - high mast light poles (100' tall) and ~107 - low-level light poles (40' tall) within the project limits shown on the attached map. The map also has a summary of high mast pole locations and elevations."
