Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on a state Department of Conservation proposal to invite telecommunications companies to lease up to 16 Maine mountain tops for the erection of private cell towers. Though most of the peaks now have defunct state forest fire facilities on them, the Appalachain Mountain Club is questioning the proposal with regard to at least six of the sites, including Big Squaw, Mt. Blue, Bald, Coburn, Peekaboo and Squa Pan, which are highly valued for recreation and well-suited for ecological reserves.
