I am in the process of obtaining a permit to put up a 70 foot tower, 
and I have been requested to "Provide evidence that the tower 
complies with FAA regulations and does not present a danger to 
navigation."

I'm 25 miles from the nearest airport, surrounded by trees as high or 
higher than the tower, and less than a mile from three broadcast 
towers that are hundreds of feet high.  My county planners should 
(hopefully!) be receptive to these "common sense" arguments (they 
have been so far), as long as I can provide a little bit of meat as 
well.

Can somebody point me to specific FAA regulations that I can quote 
that say that I'm OK since since I'm farther than XXX miles from an 
airport, under XXX feet high, etc.

Thanks and 73,
    Rob, KA1ARB
