Antenna tower · 2026
WPAT Tower #3
Clifton, NJ · near Essex County (5.4 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
"The requested change is to bring to the current lighting circular 70/7460-1M Obstruction Marking and Lighting a med-dual system - Chapters 4 8(M- Dual) &15. This request is part of an overall request for the 4 tower AM array made up of ASRs; WPAT Tower 4 – 124194 WPAT Tower 3 – 1241950 WPAT Tower 2 – 1241951 and WPAT Tower 1 – 1241952 where two towers are requested to no longer require lighting and two towers would be converted from A to E style."
