My wife is 3 years younger than I.\nWe have both recently been facing unprecedented health challenges and are concerned that the newly built cellular towers near us may be partially to blame.\n\nHowever our home has recently been bordered by 2 cellular towers in Kapolei.  The most recent tower was built to our east near the eastbound H-1 exit to Kualakai Parkway.\nThe other older tower is tk our west near the H-1eastbound entrance at Ft. Barrett/Makakilo drive.\n\nI am extremely concerned about the cumulative effect if both of these towers so close to our home.\nWe have also recently had high voltage towers installed close to our home aling Farrington Highway.\n\nDoes any third party risk assessment study take place without prejudice such as State, County, or developer subcontractors, in order to obtain a fair result?\n\nThe community needs such protections in place. We also need swift DOH enforcement to be able yo halt operations and provide further studies should their be any suspected risks.\n\nMahalo,\n\nPatrick \n\n\n\n\n","attachments":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-3022","tags":["exposure-places","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"26568a8610ecaaae752e2896c301650e23f7021922aec3865d02455ee887c9b2","slug":"exposure-places-comment-3022","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-3022","body_sha256":"28d74118c4e2be94294d32cfc3d96417643a81d93a298c230aee85854ba3614a","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"infrastructure","topics":[{"id":"infrastructure","evidence":" and are concerned that the newly built cellular towers near us may be partially to blame.\n\nHowever our home has re"},{"id":"electricity","evidence":" to our home.\nWe have also recently had high voltage towers installed close to our home aling Farrington Highway.\n\nDoes"},{"id":"research","evidence":"rrington Highway.\n\nDoes any third party risk assessment study take place without prejudice such as State, County, o"},{"id":"standards","evidence":"ctions in place.
