Sec. 22.365  Antenna structures; air navigation safety.



    Licensees that own their antenna structures must not allow these 

antenna structures to become a hazard to air navigation. In general, 

antenna structure owners are responsible for registering antenna 

structures with the FCC if required by part 17 of this chapter, and for 

installing and maintaining any required marking and lighting. However, 

in the event of default of this responsibility by an antenna structure 

owner, each FCC permittee or licensee authorized to use an affected 

antenna structure will be held responsible by the FCC for ensuring that 

the antenna structure continues to meet the requirements of part 17 of 

this chapter. See Sec. 17.6 of this chapter.

    (a) Marking and lighting. Antenna structures must be marked, lighted 

and maintained in accordance with Part 17 of this chapter and all 

applicable rules and requirements of the Federal Aviation 

Administration.

    (b) Maintenance contracts. Antenna structure owners (or licensees 

and permittees, in the event of default by an antenna structure owner) 

may enter into contracts with other entities to monitor and carry out 

necessary maintenance of antenna structures. Antenna structure owners 

(or licensees and permittees, in the event of default by an antenna 

structure owner) that make such contractual arrangements continue to be 

responsible for the maintenance of antenna structures in regard to air 

navigation safety.
