Fwd: RE: RadioFrequency

["Thatcher, Drew" <dht0303@hub.doh.wa.gov>]

The federal standards are required by the Telecommunications act of 1996 
and are contained in FCC 96-326 (August 1, 1996).  These standards are 
based upon the NCRP recommendations from 1986 (NCRP Report #86).  With 
the exception of exposure to power density greater than 1500 MHz and the 
limits for exposure to lower frequency magnetic fields, they are also 
based upon the 1992 RF standards developed by the IEEE and adopted by 
ANSI (ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992).

I cannot speak directly to the posting requirements but will find out 
more about them with a phone call if you would like.  I can also email 
you a copy (or fax) of the table of limits if you would quickly like to 
know.

Good afternoon,

I am looking for guidelines, standards, and/or regulations 
concerning RF transmitters.  My main concern is proper posting of 
said transmitters.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

S.,

denny
