Information on site specific licensed facilities can be found in
the "General Menu Reports" (GenMen) at
http://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/genmen/index.hts.
The various FCC Bureaus also publish on at least a weekly basis,
bulk extracts of their licensing databases. Each licensing
database has its own unique file structure. These extracts
consist of multiple, very large files. The FCC's Office of
Engineering and Technology (OET) maintains an index to these
databases at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/database/fadb.html. Entry
points into the various databases include frequency, state/
county, latitude/longitude, call-sign and licensee name. For
further information on the Commission's existing databases,
you can contact Donald Campbell at dcampbel@fcc.gov or

15. Can local and state governmental bodies establish limits for RF
exposure?
Although some local and state governments have enacted rules
and regulations about human exposure to RF energy in the past,
the Telecommunications Act of 1996 requires the Federal
Government to control human exposure to RF emissions. In
particular, Section 704 of the Act states that, "No State or local
government or instrumentality thereof may regulate the
placement, construction, and modification of personal wireless
service facilities on the basis of the environmental effects of
radio frequency emissions to the extent that such facilities
comply with the Commission's regulations concerning such
emissions." Further information on federal authority and FCC
policy is available in a fact sheet from the FCC's Wireless
Telecommunications Bureau at
www.fcc.gov/wtb.
16. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health
problems are associated with using wireless phones. There is
no proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe.
Wireless phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF)
in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very
low levels of RF when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high
levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue),
exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects
causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low
level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some
