Rebio Jaru towersRondônia the old one (from ABRACOS, 1991) the new one (since WETAMC, 1999)
The new tower issues • deforestation • biomass burning • empty gun shells left at the tower • cables from lightning protection pole stolen • IBAMA boundary demarcation • threat from land occupants near the tower
Actions regarding the new tower • dismount • move somewhere else to the South still inside the Rebio Jaru area
