different aspects of RF safety to ensure
coordinated efforts at the federal level. The
following agencies belong to this working group:
o National Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health
o Environmental Protection Agency
o Occupational Safety and Health Administration
o National Telecommunications and Information
Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in
some interagency working group activities, as
well.
The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for
wireless phones with the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the
United States must comply with FCC safety
guidelines that limit RF exposure. The FCC relies
on the FDA and other health agencies for safety
questions about wireless phones.
The FCC also regulates the base stations that the
wireless phone networks rely upon. While these
base stations operate at higher power than do the
wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures
that people get from these base stations are
typically thousands of times lower than those they
can get from wireless phones. Base stations are
thus not the subject of the safety questions
discussed in this document.
