• Tables 1-2 show radiofrequency radiation (RF) levels at 6” (to<br />

represent a possible face exposure). These are data tables.<br />

• Tables 3-4 show RF levels at 11” (to represent a possible<br />

nursery/bedroom exposure). These are data tables.<br />

• Tables 5-6 show RF levels at 28” to represent a possible kitchen<br />

work space exposure. These are data tables.<br />

• Tables 7-9 show the distance to the FCC violation level for timeweighted<br />

average limits and for peak power limits (in inches). These<br />

are data tables.<br />

• Tables 10-15 show where FCC violations may occur at the face, in<br />

the nursery or in the kitchen scenarios. These are colored tables<br />

highlighting where FCC violations may occur under all scenarios.<br />

• Tables 16-29 show comparisons of smart meter RF levels with<br />

studies that report adverse health impacts from low-intensity, chronic<br />

exposure to similar RF exposures. These are colored tables<br />

highlighting where smart meter RF levels exceed levels associated<br />

with adverse health impacts in published scientific studies.<br />

• Tables 30-31 show RF levels in comparison to Medtronics advisory<br />

limit for MRI exposures to radiofrequency radiation at 0.1 W/Kg or<br />

about 250 uW/cm2. These are colored tables highlighting where smart<br />

meter RF levels may exceed those recommended for RF exposure.<br />

• Tables 32-33 show RF levels from smart meters in comparison to<br />

the BioInitiative Report recommendation of 0.1 uW/cm2 for chronic<br />

exposure to pulsed radiofrequency radiation.<br />
