I am submitting comments about my lived experience when exposed to EMF and RF radiation from cell towers. I used to live in a garden apartment in a Colorado town for 9 years in good health until a cell phone tower was put up only 3 blocks away. Soon I experienced poor quality sleep, ocular migraines, occasional heart palatations with chest pains, & my tinnitus became unbearable all through the day. I moved across the state to a smaller town and another lovely garden apartment where I felt total relief from the previously mentioned symptoms and sidnificant reduction in my tinnitus "noise" for about 2 years. Then a cell tower was constructed 1 block away. Very soon (in a few weeks) my previous symptoms started up again w/ my tinnitus becoming quite unbearable and in addition to the previously mentioned health problems, my skin became extremely itchy, I started having nose bleeds and my lethargy was a daily burden. I moved again, this time to a more remote location, but with an almost hopeless feeling that I would be continuously pursued by this poisonous EMF and RF radiation anywhere I might go. Currently the nearest cell tower is 2 miles away. So far I still have ongoing tinnitus, but it is somewhat quieter. I still get very occasional ocular migraines and itching skin. It is clear to me that the distance I live from a cell tower adversely affects my health to some degree no matter what. This clearly means that these towers must Never be placed too near communities or schools because the RF radiation causes illnesses. Human bodies are NOT meant to withstand these harmful frequencies which cause internal health problems. Serious consideration Must be given to these problems and appropriate regulations have to be put in place. Please take these comments into very serious consideration. I am now a 77 year old woman who went from excellent health 7 years ago to a compromised health situation due to cell towers and their RF radiation being putup around me!

Smart meters are wireless devices that operate 24/7 in most homes in the US. These digital devices have the ability to expose a homeowner to RF radiation (RFR) more so than any other type of digital device because it creates both radiated emissions from the 2 wireless antennas and dirty electricity (DE) coming from inside the meter that rides on the homeowner’s power circuits. HHS should sponsor an opt out program through the Dept. of Energy or any Agency as appropriate that is the same opt out program for every one in every state, instead of every power company having its own with different rules and regulations, or not having one at all. But for those that do have an opt out program, most power companies do not address taking care of the DE in the opt out meters they have available for those that have an electromagnetic sensitivity (EMS) disability. Most people who have EMS manage that disability through avoidance of RF/EMF radiation exposures. The DE in digital AMI opt out meters comes from the operation of the switch mode power supply (2 kHz -50 kHz) which is just as harmful as the RFR exposures coming from the 2 antennas in the standard AMI digital smart meter, if not more so. However, the only way to avoid that, if you have an EMS disability, is to have other opt out meter choices. Since this involves being safe in your own home, getting an EMS access accommodation for a digital utility meter without DE should be made available to everyone who needs it. DE is going to get much worse from other distributed energy resources being added to the grid and it is inevitable, that at some point soon, the cumulative effects of DE must be addressed instead of just being ignored as optional to avoid and unimportant.
