Submission to Docket HHS-OASH-2026-0397: Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields, Radiofrequency Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure Submitted by: Dr Nicole Bijlsma, PhD, Environmental-Health Educator and Researcher, Melbourne, Australia I am writing as a researcher, educator and practitioner who has spent the past 25 years assessing homes for environmental-health hazards. I have also been personally affected by EMF exposure. I developed persistent sleep problems within 2 weeks of moving into our first home. I eventually realised (after 7 years and ten miscarriages - no explanation was provided by the medical industry and we didnt qualify for IVF), we were sleeping adjacent to the meter panel. I purchased a triple axis digital gauss meter and found elevated AC magnetic fields on the bed during the early hours of the morning (when the hot water system was in use). We consequently relocated to another bedroom - sleep improved and I successfully carried a twin pregnancy to term. The fix was simple and cost nothing. I subsequently established the Australian College of Environmental Studies in 1999, and have spent the past 25 years teaching students how to undertake home assessments for mould, electromagnetic fields, allergens and toxicants. Poor sleep is one of the most common complaints I see where EMF exposure is a factor. The two sources I find most often are: radiofrequency radiation from Wi-Fi routers and wireless-enabled devices kept in or near bedrooms, often running all night; and AC magnetic fields from meter panels, switchboards and wiring, including where smart meters are installed on the other side of a bedroom wall. Reducing exposure in the bedroom is frequently followed by reports of better sleep. Typical steps are moving the bed, switching off Wi-Fi at night and using wired connections. I subsequently undertook a PhD in environmental medicine (RMIT) examining the impact of environmental exposures to toxicants and manmade electromagnetic fields, gaps in current exposure standards, and the associated health effects. My dissertation, which asks whether radiofrequency radiation affects sleep, is attached in support of this submission. This involved the first real-world study (double blind, randomised, placebo controlled pilot study) on the impact of a Wi-Fi enabled device on sleep in healthy adults using a baby monitor which was statistically significant (within 7 days). Current exposure standards are designed to prevent short-term heating and nerve stimulation which do not reflect real-world exposure. They do not adequately address chronic, low-level, night-time exposure in the home, which is when the body should be resting and repairing. Nor do they account for vulnerable groups such as children, or those impacted by mould who frequently become sensitive to manmade electromagnetic fields and toxicants. Recommendations Remarkably, the most effective measures are simple and cheap: Design-stage solutions. Building codes and planning guidance should require meter panels, switchboards and smart meters to be located away from bedrooms and living areas. They should also encourage hard-wired data connections in new homes. These measures cost almost nothing when planned in at the design stage, but are expensive to retrofit. Mass consumer education. The public needs clear, independent and practical guidance on reducing exposure, particularly while sleeping. This includes turning off Wi-Fi at night, keeping devices out of bedrooms and checking what is behind the bedhead. A precautionary approach. Exposures should be kept as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA), and research and surveillance on sleep and other non-thermal effects should be funded. These recommendations are consistent with the Australian Senate Inquiry into Electromagnetic Radiation (2001) (attached). The Chair's report called for a rigorous precautionary approach to wireless technology, for emissions to be kept as low as reasonably achievable, and for clear, independent public information so people can make informed choices. Twenty-five years on, those recommendations are more relevant than ever. Thank you for the opportunity to contribute.

I'm a Targeted Individual under heavy DEW fire for 6 years now. American born and raised, no criminal history, retired white woman. They divert tower frequencies using a dark web phone app and torture me day and night. There are other covert weapons used on me too. From my experience with the heart attack inducing weapons - the most severe hits - I believe this could be a contributing cause to all the Died Suddenly deaths. Covid jab victims get blood clots and then weaponry is used on them. Having clots, many succumb to stroke or heart attack. Coroners have reported roughly half of Died Suddenly deaths were from large clots and the other half from electrical cause. So they (deep state operatives and those they hire under them) hit me with this severe weapon anywhere from 1 - 8 times a month. Maximum sleep deprivation, even with faraday fabrics trying to protect me they use multiple ways to wake me many x per night every night. I live in my van. For the first 2 years, I slept in the front drivers seat so as to be ready to leave the area at a moments notice if a heart attack inducing weapon is used on me. After I got swollen legs I resorted to sleeping in back. I use mumetal to block the bigger hits. I get head hits multiple times per day. They are microwaving my left leg in the calf area - I had cellulitis last year and it took many months to recover. They set up 'relays' or 'transmitters' idk exactly what it's called but the perps can be elsewhere and shoot thru it at that angle. I have spent many days standing or sitting behind a big tree at a park because it was the only way to avoid the constant bombardment of frequencies. This is inhumane treatment. I believe emf frequencies are being used to make people sick and go to the doctor and get medicines. Look into ties to big pharma as well because when most people get chest pain or extreme fatigue they don't think 'oh I must have a weapon on me' no they just go to the doctor, get treated, doctors can't cure anything these days so it pretty much goes downhill from there. They are also DEW hitting my cats. Normally quiet, some of my cats will cry out for no apparent reason. Sometimes I was able to quickly pick them up and actually feel the wave of attack that was hitting them on my arm. I also believe ti's are being poisoned, but your question is harm from the towers. Attached are 3 pics of a very bright light on me possibly laser idk not sure. In one image you can see a green orb in the middle. In all images you can see that it's not sun reflection, the sun is behind and to the right. Third image is cropped closer. Some heart attack inducing weapons also show a very bright light as bright as 3 LED headlights rolled into 1. My heart is in much pain at the same time. I do get hit from "up" or satellites too but mostly foot perps in vehicles that they switch out often so that following me is not as obvious. There's so many. This is unknown. Not all attacks are satellite and as I live in my van my experience is attacks hourly from horizontal hits that can be traced to specific vehicles. My thoughts are the vast number of operatives under deep state fbi cia infragard etc is wanting to be kept really secret so that nobody is aware there is a large army already. I have suffered much damage to my pets and some died. I have suffered extreme fatigue, memory loss, damage to my heart and organs and they've started hitting my eyes. There's v2k, thefts, slander, noise campaigns just about everything mentioned on the Targeted Justice website has or is happening to me. We had internet before 5G, and it's not faster now. Birds are dying. Witnesses see them acting normal and poof they just fall over in an instant. 6G is going to be full bore weapons mode. The most recent strike I had was just last week I was BLASTED right THROUGH my heart. This is a different weapon than the others, possibly 4 now, and possibly 6G but again I'm not certain. But with everything going on that I've witnessed first hand and heard or read about, I believe it is definitely time to take the towers DOWN. Thank you for listening, God Bless, and thank you for all you do. Images - 3 pics of the very bright light causing chest pain. Perp with handheld device also much pain to my heart, just appears like a flashlight but it's daytime, cropped much closer was about a city block away. And a video of my targeting can be seen here -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUpGkCTILrQ

Electric vehicles (EVs) are replacing conventional cars worldwide, exposing a growing number of occupants daily to complex electromagnetic fields generated by high voltage batteries, cables, and motors. Some magnetic field levels measured inside EVs, particularly near the floor, footwell, and rear seats, overlap with exposure levels associated with adverse health outcomes in residential, occupational, and laboratory studies. Health protection efforts may need to focus on certain groups, including children, who often sit in the rear seats where field levels can be highest, and professional drivers and regular commuters, who are exposed repeatedly over time. Existing exposure guidelines (ICNIRP, IEEE) primarily address established short term effects (e.g., nerve stimulation) and offer limited guidance for interpreting the complex, variable exposure conditions unique to EVs or their potential long-term impacts, highlighting the need for refinement as EV-specific research accumulates. Federal guidance would benefit from adopting standardized, occupant-specific exposure assessments (e.g., following IEC 62764-1), studying frequent EV occupants, and giving closer attention to vulnerable groups such as children to support ongoing evaluations of safety standards.

Response to HHS-OASH-2026-0397 from an individual in the United Kingdom. The full response is attached and addresses Questions 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 16 and 18. Question 2: I have worked in technology since the age of 16 and hold a Cisco networking qualification. I am not an RF engineer or a medical professional. Question 3: After many years of heavy personal use of wireless technology without symptoms, I developed a high-pitched tone perceived inside the head, sleep disturbance, head pressure, tingling, difficulty concentrating and irritability after moving to a home about 400m from a mobile base station. The tone stopped when I moved away and returned in spring 2025, before I became aware that a nearby base station had been rebuilt. An MRI of the brain and auditory nerves was normal. Sleeping inside a fully enclosed shielding canopy minimised or removed the tone at both homes, while partial wall shielding reduced meter readings but not the tone. I recognise these observations are unblinded. Questions 7 and 8: Consumer RF meters, which the public relies on, can report their own noise floor as if it were a real reading, with no warning to the user. I recommend verified detection limits for consumer instruments, a validated measurement protocol for residents, assessment of low-cost frequency-resolved measurement, site-specific exposure information for residents near base stations, and research into reported sensitivity using exposure logging, symptom diaries and blinded sham and real shielding. Questions 9, 16 and 18: Residents should be told before nearby sites are built or upgraded, including when new technology is switched on, and given site-specific predicted exposure and access to independent measurement. Research should prioritise blinded home trials of real and sham shielding. New frequency bands and exposure characteristics should not be authorised for widespread deployment until independent, time-bound assessment of their biological effects is complete. All information is from personal experience and my own measurements and is not peer-reviewed research.

I am a targeted individual who has implants and this is verified by the scan I took in Seattle by Jesse Beltran. Don't know if this is enough but all other info has been erased off my phone due to the constant hacking I receive 24/7. I am a victim of human trafficking and I am used in the experimentation of directed energy weapons on a daily basis. PLEASE STOP THIS. There are many others and the website to see is targetedjustice.com. Thank you Ann Caldwell Portland OR

How does your own gov. Experiment on an individual innocent a US Citizen to the point of sexually disabled, live burning, 10 years, sleep deprivation and other physical damage. In short we need it's own enforcement egency regulating EMF and other DEW. Ameha Eshete

At age 31, I underwent a variety of strange symptoms, sudden weakness and immobility of my left leg and sometimes in my arm. I was told by a neurologist I had MS. A spinal tap was inconclusive - and that experience was memorable. After the procedure, I stayed overnight for observation. I was told by the Dr. the next morning it was fine to get up move around, go home. On the way to my house I vomited three times. I was later told by a nurse that I was supposed to have lainy flat for 24 hours. I had incredbile head pain and was so sick I coudn't keep down water. For a little over a week, I was horribly ill, due to miscommunication on the hospital staff. The neurologist was certain of his diagnosis, even as the strange weakness and numbness would come and go. He simply stated - wait 10-15 years, and the symptoms would be apparent. According to another doctor, I had had a mini-stroke, althougt an MRI showed nothing. I lived in cautious fear of MS for 15 years, until upon seeing another neurologist whom had the reaction "What Dr. told you that? You do not have MS!" Turns out it was Prozac, an antidepressant that one put me on to help abait symptomatic issues. 2004: My workplace had an adminstering flu shot open house. I was talked into going, although flu shots never agreed with me. This one wrecked my health. Not only did I have intestinal flu fourteen times, and violent ones at that, I woke one morning to the feeling of having had concrete poured over my body. It took a herculean effort to turn my head and look at the clock. Somehow, I managed to dress and make it to work. The long walk from the parking garage to the building was one I will never forget. I was carrying my brief, lunch and a can of Coke, and by the time I made it to the building the only thing I wanted to do was find the nearest conference room and crawl in the corner and sleep. The fatique was overwhelming, accompanied by brain fog, lack of being able to concentrate or focus. I ended up taking short term which turned into long term disability status from work. Every doctor told me "It couldn't have been a flu shot". One even called it some 'zebra' disease. I finally found a CFIDS and Fibro center where after stating a flu shot brought this on, the Dr. kept writing, didn't say a word. "What, you're not going to tell me I'm crazy?" Oh no, he stated- a flu shot is often a trigger of underlying virus(es) or yeast overload due to explode. For years I suffered form Candida Albicans - my stomach would stick out at night as if I was pregnant, regardless of how light I ate. I was yeast toxic, and thanks to a tick bite, had Bebeiosa, and at 20, was unfortunate to contract Herpes. The perfect storm of yeast and latent viruses. I was 45 and my world had fallen about. I later learned my symptoms were the same as the Desert Storm Syndrome sicknesses-- a reaction to a shot soldiers took against anthrax, containing Squalene. In addition, I have always been sensitive to EMF's. I pass a thermostat and it statics. I can turn on and off streetlamps, due to the high content of copper in my blood. Last fall, I was diagnosed with BC, underwent surgery in March, and have yet to recover from surgery due in part to CFIDS and fibro. The clencher: last fall, conveniently at the same time, AT&T sublet an easement company to bury fiber optic cables up and down every alley surrounding my house, one behind my fence and Atmos energy slapped a smart meter on our gas meter. "EVERYBODY GETS THE SAME", was there response, no option to opt out. And the "twenty-five million Americans getting fiber optic cable" was of course, the poor and underserved communities. I tried to opt out of the cable placement, nope- these people decided that my community was apparently in need of 24 hour surveillance and to being future control as to where we go, what we do, and when, because that's what it is about - nothing to do with a faster internet. At 67 years of age, I take this to mean they believe senior Caucasians are disposable at the expense of some kids faster downloads. Since then, I have had ongoing dizziness and balance issues, and non-stop brain-ringing that is NOT tinnutitis. It is disharmonic frequency changing discordant tones that give the sensation of nails on a chalk board. (Please review attached statement as completion of this commentary. Excuse the typos. Thank-you.)

Purpose for Comment: I am a law abiding American citizen. The deterioration of my health is due to escalating daily subjection to lethal levels of RF/EMF Emissions and Exposure since June 2023 due to the US' TSDB handling code 3 nomination I was awarded. Symptoms onset time: Usually starts evenings about 6pm through 3am/ 4am at home. I have moved three times since the onset of symptoms, that has not been a solution - it has only have gotten worse. Symptoms: Sleep deprivation, excruciating joint pain - especially in hands and feet, throbbing and stabbing pain to entire spinal cord (feels like childbirth labor), brain fog, headaches, head swelling, cognitive confusion/unfocused, swollen and puffy eyes, blurred vision, vision and hair loss, brittle nails, nail ridges, extreme fatigue and malaise, muscle stiffness, muscle loss, weight gain, bloating, water retention, insulin and cortisol dysregulation, heart palpitations, increased heart rate and blood pressure, elevated body temperature and profuse perspiration while sleeping, memory loss, TMJ, around the clock teeth grinding which has caused teeth to wear and chip, loss of dental enamel. Skin: burning sensations on extremities which correlate with heart pain and palpitations, itching, tingling sensations, hyper pigmentation spots all over body, accelerated aging - most visible on face, deep wrinkles due to facial twitching, skin burning when showering. I also hear high and low pitched electrical humming in both ears at all times, and cricket like chirps sporadically. Unexplained viral symptoms that last 2-3 weeks, twice a year. The physical stress on my body has manifested in H. Zoster twice within two years. Diagnosis: I have been to the ER five times over the past 2 years for what felt like heart attacks. Only diagnoses have been "chest pain" and most recently "fear of condition not demonstrated". I stopped seeking medical attention because of this, so I educate myself on ways I can physically protect myself within my means. The medical community is simply not educated and not held to any standards in receiving any education on "modern medicine". These conditions and symptoms do exist. Impacts: My relationships, social life, enthusiasm, finances, and career have suffered greatly as a result of this program and RF/EMF exposure side effects. - I ask that there be investigations into Congress-funded direct energy weapons deployed on American citizens, on American soil. Every agency and private entity involved in these programs have not been given my consent to deteriorate my health and induce this unbearable physical pain. These agencies and their stakeholders are not regulated. Any attempt to issue any new policies over RF/EMF Exposures will be futile until the purveyors of these technologies are given policies to follow of their own and be audited by OIG which has not happened in two decades. - These technologies exist, these are not "emerging" technologies either.

Additional comment: camera is facing south which means rays are coming from west in the morning with the sun rising in the east. Please check date, time, and temperature. What I want to add is that I had two abscesses within a 6 month period and one abscess was in a virgin tooth.

I am a citizen advocate involved in pressing for setting and keeping RF exposure standards appropriate since the 1996 Telecom Act was first enacted and cell telephony rolled out. Congress's express mandate in the Telecom Act of 1996 on the FCC was that the FCC must set and keep exposure standards based upon current science. The FCC, apparently subject to industry lobbying pressure, has failed, for decades, to do this. The most convincing study of the biological effects of cell radiation exposure are the Balmori White Stork study (attached). Please also see my paper (attached) explaining the influence of this industry on Congress on this issue, and how the industry has successfully gagged Americans from demanding safer siting for cell antennas -- for a better understanding of why Congress and the FCC are motivated to do nothing to protect Americans from harmful RF exposure. Thank you for this opportunity to comment on this important topic. Respectfully submitted, Gabriel N. Seymour
