upgrades in utility lines
- Exposure limits & oversight:
adopting radiation standards
Due to recent upgrades in utility lines by ComEd, our electric utility in a Chicago suburb, my backyard now reads as hazardous on my EMF meter. I have tried several different meters and I get the same readings. I called ComEd and asked them to take readings. Their readings agreed with mine but they didn't do anything about it. I have read that a China and Russia have emf limits 100 times stricter than ours. It is unacceptable that my family and I must experience unsafe levels of radiation in our back yard just because the government is over 20 years behind the times in adopting radiation standards.
