Stage 2 - Disconnect top antenna wires running between all three masts. This work must be undertaken by a competent nominated antenna contractor.

After this period Stage 3b of the works will be implemented as advised by NLB Rep. ### Option 3 Should the trials prove inconclusive the NLB retain the option to extend the trial period to 6 months after which time the works will move on to either stage 3a or 3b as determined by NLB Rep.
