104made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report,a group of independent experts noted that no evidence exists thatusing a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Theirrecommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictlyprecautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that anyhealth hazard exists.Additional information on the safety of RF exposures from varioussources can be obtained from the following organizations(updated 10/1/2010):• FCC RF Safety Program:http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/.• Environmental Protection Agency (EPA):http://www.epa.gov/radtown/wireless-tech.html.• Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA):http://www.osha.gov/SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/.(Note: This web address is case sensitive.)• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH):http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/.• World Health Organization (WHO):http://www.who.int/peh-emf/en/.• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection:http://www.icnirp.de.• Health Protection Agency:http://www.hpa.org.uk/Topics/Radiation/.• US Food and Drug Administration:http://www.fda.gov/Radiation-EmittingProducts/RadiationEmittingProductsandProcedures/HomeBusinessandEntertainment/CellPhones/default.htm.Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) CertificationInformationYour wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It isdesigned and manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits forRadio Frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal CommunicationsCommission (FCC) of the U.S. Government.These FCC exposure limits are derived from therecommendations of two expert organizations: the NationalCouncil on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) andthe Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).In both cases, the recommendations were developed by scientificand engineering experts drawn from industry, government, andacademia after extensive reviews of the scientific literaturerelated to the biological effects of RF energy.The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile phonesemploys a unit of measurement known as the SpecificAbsorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a measure of the rate ofabsorption of RF energy by the human body expressed in units ofwatts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires wireless phones tocomply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
