Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of Radiofrequency Radiation

On September 12, 1997 (62 FR 47960), the Commission published final rules in the Second Memorandum Opinion and Order, which deals with the transition period for implementing new guidelines for human exposure to radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic fields; and the criteria for determining whether amateur radio stations must perform routine environmental evaluations for human exposure to RF fields. The Commission is correcting the amendatory language and table to ensure that the amendments are properly incorporated in the 1998 revision of the Code of Federal Regulations.
