to alleviate the symptoms. My doctor agrees that I am adversely affected by radiofrequency, but does not feel<br />

qualified to test for this factor.<br />

Communities need to establish safe zones where people can live free from excessive radiofrequency from <strong>Smart</strong><br />

<strong>Meters</strong> (and other sources as well). I am forced to try to locate such an area and then move there as the only<br />

way to escape the daily assault from PG&E’s <strong>Smart</strong> <strong>Meters</strong>. Harming citizens in this way is criminal and<br />

should be illegal. The fact that the World Health Organization has now classified radiofrequency as a Class 2B<br />

Carcinogen clearly illustrates the far-reaching health effects of microwave radiofrequency radiation from<br />

<strong>Smart</strong> <strong>Meters</strong>. And scientific research has demonstrated that radiofrequency radiation causes many adverse<br />

biological effects on the human body long before cancer is induced.<br />

I was sitting in my home office when a PG&E employee installed a “<strong>Smart</strong>Meter” upon my house without<br />

knocking on my door first. He did it very quickly and was gone because I went outside when the electricity<br />

went out and there was a hugh hammer sound. There I found a notice of what was done.<br />

This is my situation. I moved to the country surrounded by forest several years ago due to extreme sensitivity<br />

to electric-magnetic pollution , radiation, and other health issues such as chemical sensitivity. You can<br />

imagine how violated I must feel to have this “<strong>Smart</strong>Meter” installed against my will. The stress of this was<br />

tremendous, and as of yet I can not get it removed. I try to just put it out of my mind however, my physical<br />

body is experiencing rapid heart beat and head-ache. I realize that Wi-Fi is in the world now but please let my<br />

home remain my sanctuary for healing.<br />

I can document my health challenges and their worsening due to the installation of “<strong>Smart</strong>Meter” on my home.<br />

I will continue to pursue the removal of this health hazard device until it is removed.<br />

I live in an apartment building with seven units. When I heard about smart meters I called PG&E and was put<br />

on the delayed list. This did not make me very happy because I didn’t want one period. Our meters are in a<br />

location about 40 feet from my apartment and right next to the building. When I went down recently to look,<br />

some of the meters already had smart meters on them. Even though three of us don’t, we are still getting the<br />

EMF’s from the others. I am 74 years old and have lived in this location for more than 20 years. I have been<br />

getting headaches lately and I believe it is due to the smart meters. I don’t want one and I don’t think it’s right<br />

for us apartment dwellers to be subjected to the smart meters that you installed outside our building next to<br />

my meter.<br />

________________________________________________________________________<br />

Since the smart meter was installed on my home (without choice, just DONE) I have been having ringing in my<br />

ears, fatigue and my husband gets severe headaches. The meter is installed outside the wall of the family room<br />

where we watch tv and where I’m sitting now at my computer. It’s 12 feet away.<br />

I now have called SDGE about getting the <strong>Smart</strong>Meter removed, and they have told me they will not remove it.<br />

One lady told me it was California Law that I have it on my house.<br />

I do not feel it is fair that I am required to wait up to a year to have my <strong>Smart</strong>Meter removed when I did not<br />

want the <strong>Smart</strong>Meter on my home in the first place. I am also concerned that the <strong>Smart</strong>Meter may be causing<br />

sleep problems and other health issues for myself and my family. I do not want to wait months to remove this<br />

<strong>Smart</strong>Meter. I would like it removed now!<br />
