The National Park Service is seeking public comment on a proposal to install indoor Wi-Fi networks and associated equipment throughout Yellowstone National Park.

If a permit is approved, more than 500 antennas would be installed on employee housing, visitor lodges and pre-existing towers.

The park says the antennas would be minimally invasive and have no adverse effects on wildlife or historic structures.

Comments must be received by Nov. 29, and can be submitted online here , hand delivered here or by mail to Compliance Office, Attention: Access Parks Broadband Proposal, P.O. Box 168, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming 82190.
