ARTICLE 13<br />
New Hampshire Electric Cooperative is mandating new wireless electric “Smart Meters” installed on all member<br />
residences in their district. Smart Meters and their electromagnetic fields increase the radiation levels in and around<br />
our homes and environments. A large body <strong>of</strong> scientific evidence indicates that this type <strong>of</strong> radiation disrupts human<br />
health and development. It also impacts plant life and animals.<br />
The use <strong>of</strong> wireless meters on homes is an untested use <strong>of</strong> wireless technology. The meters have not been tested,<br />
and therefore are not UL certified, and unsafe. Other problems that are <strong>of</strong> concern include higher electrical cost<br />
based on measured peak time use, security, privacy, and reliability issued potentially leading to blackouts.<br />
In light <strong>of</strong> the above health and safety issues, we are requesting a choice as to the type <strong>of</strong> meter installed on our<br />
homes: the wireless smart meter or a hard-wired analog/digital meter within a NHEC opt out program.<br />
