Given the technology that has evolved, the 1996 FCC standards for RF/EMF are barely relevant, woefully inadequate and antiquated.  I hope that based on the information received, the HHS can provide recommendations to FCC to enact some urgent practical steps to help residential neighborhoods and schools minimize exposure, pending some of the more complicated research issues.  FCC should defer to HHS's expertise and judgment on such matters, since FCC has demonstrated scant, if any, concern for public safety over the last 30 years.","attachments":["https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6174/attachment_1.pdf"],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6174","tags":["exposure-places","policy-standards","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"fe48586f89f8e9863d2fc7b1cac26889886c7853ebdd2b3790d36df1745a3436","slug":"exposure-places-comment-6174","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6174","body_sha256":"a75a75d04c8901b00abcd0cd23b4a680d5b3f2444b2e0767b1fd3e407c567fd8","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"standards","topics":[{"id":"standards","evidence":".
