Abstract
A flood protection pedestal protects telecommunications equipment and the like retained therein from water damage during flood conditions in the surrounding environment. The flood protection pedestal includes a base assembly, a structural cover assembly removably attached to the base assembly for covering the telecommunications equipment, and an air entrapping arrangement inside the cover assembly over the telecommunications equipment. The air entrapping arrangement may be either a thin walled unitary dome member integrally formed of a plastics material or a coating applied to the interior of the cover assembly. A downwardly oriented opening is formed in the dome member for receiving telecommunications equipment. A body of air is entrapped within the cover assembly when flood waters rise above a given level for protecting the telecommunications equipment from exposure to the flood waters.
