What happens if the station is vandalized, damaged by animals or weather?

Repairs for minor damage are covered under the maintenance contract.  Significant repairs will be covered under an amendment.  For moderate to high risk sites, we factor in vandalism/environmental mitigation in the equipment configuration during network installation.  This may include fencing, barbed wire, equipment enclosure armor with locks, reinforced solar system, rigid or flex conduit for external cabling, internal bracing for the monument, cameras, and site specific upgrades.  After-the-fact-vandalism repair for major incidences can range in cost from $5-20k in time, materials and electronics.  It is best to mitigate up front.
