Old El Portal Network Improvement: Modify utility pole location

This project amends PEPC 90460 to change the location of the utility pole in Old El Portal to provide wireless bridge internet improvements for the Old El Portal NPS offices. Instead of installing the 55-foot utility pole in the parking lot east of the Nature Bridge building along El Portal Road (continuation of Highway 140 into the park), the project would install a 50-foot utility pole at the southeast corner of the Old El Portal firehouse. An antenna would be mounted at the top of the utility pole (12'' tall x 12'' diameter) to transmit and receive the signal to its partner device. To install the utility pole, ground disturbance would be required to dig the hole and mount the utility pole (hole 10 inches in diameter, 72 inches deep, set directly in the ground).
