Late last year, DG MAA was tasked with seeking legislation to control the erection, lighting and charting of low flying obstacles below the current cut-off of 300' (primarily as a result of the anemometer mast issue but applicable to other structures as well). I don't know how far he has got with it, but it is clearly accepted as an issue by the 'head shed' in military aviation safety.
