the monopole would be such that it would not
be perceptible and largely absorbed into these
views.
There would be a negligible visual impact on
views from the regionally important Tablelands
Lookout, due to distance, viewing level and the
visual absorption capacity of the landscape in
this view.
There would also be a negligible visual impact on
views from the township of Cooran, due to the
absorption capacity of the landscape and
distance which would make the portion of the
monopole that would be visible above the
intervening landform and vegetation
imperceptible within the view.
