Requesting The University Of Hawaii To Establish A Reliable, Independent, And Transparent Methodology To Assess Effects Of Radio Frequency Emissions Generated By Wireless Antenna Sites.
Impact
If implemented, this resolution could significantly enhance the oversight and understanding of radio frequency emissions in relation to health regulations. The proposed methodology would include creating a central data repository for information on emissions from transmitting facilities, ensuring that public access to this information is coordinated and effective. Additionally, it aims to align safety measures with Federal Communications Commission regulations regarding human exposure limits, thereby reinforcing public health standards.
Summary
Senate Resolution 207 requests the University of Hawaii to establish a reliable, independent, and transparent methodology for assessing the effects of radio frequency emissions generated by wireless antenna sites. This resolution arises due to the rapid deployment of 5G technology in Hawaii following the enactment of Act 49 in 2018, which allowed for increased wireless antenna installations across the state. The proponents argue the need for credible research to dispel public concerns about the health implications of these technologies, which have often been based on misinformation.
Contention
There are underlying tensions in the discourse surrounding SR207, primarily revolving around public health versus technological advancement. While the resolution seeks to emphasize safety and transparency, private stakeholders may express concerns about regulatory burdens. Balancing the need for technological growth with public safety is likely to remain a contentious issue as Hawaii progresses in its adoption of new wireless technologies.
