I am writing regarding the FCC’s response to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals’ remand concerning its decades-old radiofrequency (RF) radiation exposure guidelines. The Court directed the FCC to provide a reasoned explanation for its determination that its guidelines adequately protect humans against harmful effects of RF radiation unrelated to cancer. Specifically, the court required the FCC to address the impacts of RF radiation on children, the health implications of long-term exposure, the ubiquity of wireless devices and technological developments, impacts on the environment, and the adequacy of the FCC’s testing procedures for cell phones and other portable devices. The FCC should fully consider evidence and real-world experiences concerning the health and environmental impacts of wireless radiation, including non-cancer health effects, impacts on children, long-term and cumulative exposure, cancer, and impacts on wildlife and the environment. The FCC is not a health agency and does not have expertise in medicine, biology or public health. Yet, the agency continues to assert authority over RF exposure standards and is preparing to reach conclusions about whether its existing guidelines adequately protect the public. I urge the FCC to recognize the critical role of federal health agencies, including the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and to rely on appropriate health and biological expertise when addressing the issues identified by the court. This issue matters to me personally because the long-term exposure to this kind of technology has not been studied. So we do not know the facts, and it’s unacceptable to expose millions of people to this technology without doing studies to see if it’s safe or not. My personal experience has been that when I set up and started using my home office, my health deteriorated. I noticed that I always feel much better whenever I’m traveling and staying at a relative’s house, which is hardwired And each time I go back home and start working in my office again, my health deteriorates again. Since I live very near two large apartment buildings, I decided to check and see how many wifi networks reached my office. The most recent reading showed more than 25 networks can be accessed at the area where I am working much of each day. Since there are currently no studies that show whether this is safe or not, it is unnerving. I urge the FCC to give meaningful consideration to the experiences and evidence before it and to fully address each of the iss idueentified by the court.
