Exposure limits & oversight

Need to have EMF blocking devices around towers.

I live in San Clemente California. Approximately 14 years ago the city allowed a GROUND level Mega Tower to be installed 150ft from our backyard. There are four Mega Cell towers attached aiming right at our home. I notified the FCC when they were building it that I thought it does not meet regulation and that it should be elevated. I bought a meter that shows exceedingly high levels in the yard and home. Both the city and the FCC ignored our complaints. The city is receiving a lot of money to have this site on their property. My husband and I both now have deteriorating health issues.

No American Citizen has asked to be bathed in EMF and Radiation, yet the cell towers keep going up without the public’s knowledge. The cell towers are getting more powerful and are encroaching onto school property and into neighborhoods across the country. They are extremely dangerous to human health and wildlife. It seems that profit has been put over quality of life and health, yet again. We would like to see these cell towers be removed from neighborhoods and near schools

Obtaining public health data from being exposed to the various radiation and radio frequencies is of utmost importance PRIOR to any further exposure. The US Constitution guarantees its citizens the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. None of these mandates are met when business practices expose citizens to harmful agents of any kind. The rush to begin building prior to knowing the harmful effects is a blatant move signaling a disregard for the science to provide data to hold companies accountable. Yes, they have lots of ways to block us from knowing. Yes, we will ask for a legitimate honest chance to make decisions based on scientific findings. Rhonda Taylor

There are strong correlations and concerns over EMF’s in our environment and in technology devices in our home and their adverse health effects. As constituents and consumers we have the right to transparent information.

The safety and well being of the public should be heavily considered when making decisions. The health of people should not be sacrificed for convenience.

There is a lot of available information on this topic. For example... "Biological effects of cell tower radiation on human body": Continuous exposure to microwave radiations from Cell phone towers, TV and FM towers cause serious health problems over the years. Microwave radiation effects are classified as-thermal and non-thermal. The current exposure safety standards are mainly based on the thermal effects, which are inadequate. Measurements have been carried out at various places near the cell towers and it has been found that the radiation levels are very high. This paper reviews various epidemiological and experimental studies, which show significant biological effects far below the current standards. Also, the details of Radiation Shield are given, which consists of orthogonally polarized multiple broad band monopole antennas to absorb the undesired radiation (Neha Kumar, Girish Kumar ISMOT, Delhi, India, 678-679, 2009). "Evaluation study of radio frequency radiation effects from cell phone towers on human health": The presence of a large number of cell phone towers on the roofs of buildings inside cities raises several questions about whether the radiated electromagnetic frequency (EMF) and power spectrum density (PSD) affect the population even if the towers were installed based on the exiting conditions and standards in the cities. This paper aims to answer all these ambiguous questions by measuring the emitted EMF from the local towers built in a small city of Al-Kut in Iraq. This study was set to investigate the health impact of EMF radiation from the cell phone towers and determine how this EMF effects on the human immunity to diseases. The practical measurements were obtained using the EMF meter and the global positioning system (GPS) and employing the geographical information system (GIS). In this paper, two study groups were selected. The first one lived in the area with three installed towers at distance of 50–100 m between them. The second group resided in the area where towers were installed outside its borders at distances of more than 500 m. The results show that the first group suffers from a health problem much more than the second one. In addition, a high percentage of residences were the most educated, but the less knowledgeable people about EMF radiation impacts at long-term exposure, a fact that can be attributed to the academic curriculum deficiency. Therefore, the study has recommended integrating environmental concepts in the governmental institutions and organizations for all mature persons, irrespective of their academic qualification, to increase people’s awareness about this topic (Radioelectronics and Communications Systems 64 (3), 155-164, 2021). "Journal of Pediatrics Research Reviews & Reports": academia.edu Journal of Pediatrics Research Reviews & Reports Iyyanki Muralikrishna, Prisilla Jayanthi The universal study reveals that Electromagnetic Frequency (EMF) exposure is upsetting the environment. It focuses keenly on the people residing in the neighboring of the base stations/mobile towers were affected by environmental radiation pollution. The effect of EMF radiation on human life is unusually increasing on dayto-day basis. As the number of customers using mobiles rises, one would see the mobile phone towers/base trans-receiver station (BTS) increases; and this has a great and huge impact on radiation hazards. Mobile phones have the capability of emitting radiations that would affect human tissues and it runs a two-way communication paradigm. Radio Frequency (RF) wave establishes communication around the globe in the mobile network. However, the radiations emitted by RF waves are harmful if absorbed into the human tissues. The most side effects experienced when nearer to these towers are headaches, discomfort, anxiety and other diseases. The radiation hazards are found to be extraordinarily more where the cell towers were installed nearer to educational institutes, healthcare and few residential areas. They were recommended to move/stay away from such areas, the radiations can cause tumors, disturbance of the nervous system and other diseases. The study is to understand the radiation exposure limits that would protect the public health from the EMF exposure. RF radiations were mapped by geographic information system (GIS) based measuring approach that helps in detecting places where users are in health hazards in exposed areas. This helps government and health organization to estimate the distribution of radiation in areas nearer to the location of mobile towers. Realization among the people was made to live and spend less time based on the radiation levels of exposure with the mobile towers. The analysis was carried out by STATA software to measure the poisson exposure of confidence interval (Muralikrishna).

A century+ of actual scientific research has categorized the risks of electromagnetic radiation adequately. It's why we (for now) have OSHA, etc. Fear-mongering from untrained folks (RFKj, especially) helps no one.

There are numerous studies demonstrating the damage that radio frequencies do on a cellular level. You have access to them. Use them to regulate these harmful radio waves. The so called 5G is a biological weapon. What are you going to do to protect all life on this planet from this invasive weapon?

As an EE educated ca 1980, we have long known that microwaves and other forms of high frequency radiation cause many deleterious effects. Even high voltage at 60 Hz is problematic. Local emag sources should not be allowed without faraday shielding.
