Antenna tower · 2026
KXMB-TV Tower
St Anthony, ND · near Bismarck Muni (13.0 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
"Decrease overall height of tower by 60 ft due to a top-mount antenna replacement. The new top-mount antenna is 60 ft shorter than the top-mount antenna it is replacing."
