Who owns the towers in Carbon County
18 different registrants own the 27 structures. One is registered to an individual or family trust, whose name this site withholds. Owner names are the registrant's legal entity as filed with the FCC; the large tower companies file under many subsidiary names, which this site groups into families where the brand is in the name or listed in the company's SEC filings.
Height and age
The median structure here stands 104 feet, 46 feet shorter than the Montana median, typical of denser areas where more, shorter sites fill in coverage. The tallest is a lattice tower near Roberts at 250 feet, built in 2004. More than in any other decade, 30% were built in the 2010s.
Every registered structure
Sorted tallest first. The registration number opens the FCC record, which shows the exact location and the owner's contact for the structure. A tower on your land that is not in this list is probably under 200 feet and away from airports, so it did not need registering — see why some towers aren't listed.
