Draft Environmental Assessment. 34th District Courthouse: Communications Tower, St. Bernard Parish, Lousiana
The communications antenna tower affixed to the roof of the St. Bernard Parish Government Complex, located at 1101 West St. Bernard Highway, Chalmette, Louisiana sustained extensive damage from Hurricane Katrina and was deemed eligible for replacement by FEMA for federal disaster public assistance as part of a non-critical facility serving the needs of the general public. The geographic coordinates of the damaged communications tower are: latitude: 29.94120; longitude: -89. 97364. The applicant, St. Bernard Parish, proposes to relocate the communications antenna tower to a concrete base at ground level directly behind the current building and within approximately 30 feet (ft) of its original location on the roof. The applicant plans to install additional wireless communications components on the replacement tower, upgrading the capacity but also increasing the overall weight. Rather than rebuilding the roof to support the heavier antenna upgrade, the applicant plans to construct the antenna tower on the ground between two onsite buildings. This involves excavating soils to a depth of about 5 feet within a 16 feet by 20 feet area between the buildings, and driving a total of (9) 90 feet long steel pipe piles. A steel reinforced concrete pad foundation would then be constructed to support a 3-beam steel communications tower to a height of 130 feet.
