Abstract

Provides guidance of a general nature for the siting, installation and operation of

Scope

This Standard provides guidance of a general nature for the siting, installation and operation of radiocommunications facilities independent of the operating frequency.
It is intended to assist those responsible for the planning, construction, installation, operation, maintenance and decommissioning of radiocommunications and broadcasting services. It provides information and guidance for organizations and the public, from the viewpoint of the impact on the general public and operational staff, on the siting of radiocommunications and broadcasting facilities. It also provides information on the effects that existing or planned developments in the vicinity of those facilities could be expected to have on the operations of such facilities.
NOTE: Regulatory, planning and environmental authorities and bodies are listed in Appendices A and B. Appendices C and D list organizations involved in the radiocommunications/broadcasting industry. These lists may not be exhaustive. Users of this Standard should consult appropriate directories including the World Wide Web (Australian Government entry point address: http://www.nla.gov.au/oz/gov/) for up-to-date listings.
In Australia, telecommunications carriers who intend to install, or who are installing or operating fixed radiocommunications infrastructure used to supply a carriage service, may be required to comply with the Australian Communications Industry Forum (ACIF) Code C564:2002.
