Radio Repeater System Site Construction

Parks Canada is proposing to install (3) new radio communications repeater sites inside the Akami-Uapishk?-KakKasuak-Mealy Mountains National Park Reserve. All three sites are in the backcountry, located on mountain tops, and are only accessible via helicopter. For all three sites, a communications shelter and a small tower will need to be constructed along with their foundations and/or anchoring into the rock. The site locations are as follows: (53.4475000, -59.3883610), (53.7378060, -58.6876390) and (53.7014170, -57.3492500). The latter will also require the construction of a wooden helipad.
