Approximately 8 years ago, an Internet provider from a neighboring County, erected a cell tower approximately one mile West of my property, at an elevation about 600 feet higher than my highest elevation. I can see the cell tower, from my Residence. I have noticed that the trees surrounding that tower, appear to be dying or have died. In addition, I personally installed a wireless radio transmitter, on a tree along my private road, to alert me to autos entering my road. That tree, a Western Larch, has subsequently died. I do not think these are COINCIDENCES. I believe the EMF’s that are generated caused the trees to die. This causes me concern for individual human health and the wildlife and forests.","attachments":[],"attachment_names":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filing/26110077078","filing_type":"COMMENT","proceedings":"ET 13-84","capture_reviewed":true,"captured_at":"2026-09-29T11:06:17.801Z","supplied_classification":null,"tags":["school-connectivity","towers-antennas","wildlife-environment"],"source_hash":"4fa1451e57a992d4a12db67e1a868e35c30c5b82e8c75a8c1ed5ea45898bc3ab","slug":"school-connectivity-filing-26110077078","classification":{"id":"26110077078","body_sha256":"d0107bc96b2ac55fb77759094334d7cc8c7667de5005e4bd20defd44b37c04e2","status":"text_matched","primary_topic":"school-connectivity","topics":[{"id":"school-connectivity","evidence":"I believe the EMF’s that are generated caused the trees to die."},{"id":"towers-antennas","evidence":"Approximately 8 years ago, an Internet provider from a neighboring County, erected a cell tower approximately one mile West of my property, at an elevation about 600 feet higher than my highest elevation."},{"id":"wildlife-environment","evidence":"I have noticed that the trees surrounding that tower, appear to be dying or have died."}],"summary":"","method":"Local topic rules v1; exact supporting passages; not an AI or medical review","scope":"Captured filing text only.
