Direct Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Comment Score
Limited Crown Castle provides only minimal insight into its climate-related lobbying. It states that it works with “government agencies and others” to help “fram[e] responsible laws, regulations and standards affecting the community, the workplace and the environment,” but it never identifies any particular piece of climate legislation, rule-making process, or jurisdiction it has engaged on. The company offers no description of how it lobbies—no mention of letters, meetings, coalition work, or which specific agencies or lawmakers it approaches—so the channels and targets of influence remain unclear. Similarly, its policy objectives are expressed only in broad terms such as a desire to “promote and practice sound environmental stewardship” and “proactively reduce resource use, waste and the environmental impact,” without specifying the concrete regulatory changes or amendments it supports or opposes. This limited, high-level language signals some engagement but lacks the detail needed to understand the substance, methods, and aims of the company’s climate-policy advocacy. 1
Lobbying Governance
Overall Assessment Comment Score
None Crown Castle’s disclosure centers entirely on ESG oversight, with the NESG Committee assisting the board in overseeing “environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategies, goals and initiatives” and receiving quarterly updates on “our ESG risks, opportunities, priorities, initiatives and progress,” but it makes no reference to any internal mechanisms, oversight structures, monitoring or accountability measures related to direct or indirect lobbying activities. We found no evidence of policies, procedures or responsible individuals dedicated to governing lobbying or aligning it with climate or other policy goals. 0
