| Draft Environmental Impact Statement Shorts School Road Am Antenna Structures 59 Viewpoint 13 The visual impacts under Alternative II would be similar to those under the Preferred Alternative from Viewpoint 13 (Figure A.13). However, because in Alternative II the number of antennas would be reduced, the vividness, intactness, and unity ratings would be slightly better than those ratings under the Preferred Alternative. Lighting impacts from the 349-foot antenna would not differ between alternatives. Final Adjusted Visual Quality Rating: 2.0 (down from 4.7) Viewpoint 14 The visual impacts under Alternative II would be similar to those under the Preferred Alternative from Viewpoint 14 (Figure A.14). However, because in Alternative II the number of antennas would be reduced, the vividness, intactness, and unity ratings would be slightly better than those ratings under the Preferred Alternative. Lighting impacts from the 349-foot antenna would not differ between alternatives. Final Adjusted Visual Quality Rating: 2.3 (down from 5.5) Viewpoint 15 The visual impacts under Alternative II would be similar to those under the Preferred Alternative from Viewpoint 15 (Figure A.15). However, because in Alternative II the number of antennas would be reduced, the vividness, intactness, and unity ratings would be slightly better than those ratings under the Preferred Alternative. Lighting impacts from the 349-foot antenna would not differ between alternatives. The construction of the Alternative II is determined to result in a significant adverse impact to views from this viewpoint based on the degree of visual change observed in the visual simulations. Final Adjusted Visual Quality Rating: 2.6 (down from 5.6) Viewpoint 16 The visual impacts under Alternative II would be similar to those under the Preferred Alternative from Viewpoint 16 (Figure A.16). However, because in Alternative II the number of antennas would be reduced, the vividness, intactness, and unity ratings would be slightly better than those ratings under the Preferred Alternative. Lighting impacts from the 349-foot antenna would not differ between alternatives. Final Adjusted Visual Quality Rating: 2.6 (down from 5.6) |
