action if wireless phones are shown to emit
radio frequency energy (RF) at a level that is
hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA
could require the manufacturers of wireless
phones to notify users of the health hazard and
to repair, replace or recall the phones so that
the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not
justify FDA regulatory actions, FDA has urged
the wireless phone industry to take a number of
steps, including the following:
•
“Support needed research into possible
biological effects of RF of the type emitted
by wireless phones;
•
“Design wireless phones in a way that
minimizes any RF exposure to the user that
is not necessary for device function; and
•
“Cooperate in providing users of wireless
phones with the best possible information
on possible effects of wireless phone use on
human health.
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of
the federal agencies that have responsibility for
different aspects of RF safety to ensure
coordinated efforts at the federal level. The
following agencies belong to this working
group:
•
“National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health
•
“Environmental Protection Agency
•
“Federal Communications Commission
•
“Occupational Safety and Health
Administration
•
“National Telecommunications and
Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in
some interagency working group activities, as
well.
