Information Resources

:: Information package on mobile phone towers & EMR
This package, Mobile Phone Towers and Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) – Information for Communities and Local Councils, was developed by the Australian Communications Authority (ACA) and the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA). It aims to address community concerns about EMR and health issues, particularly those associated with the installation of mobile phone infrastructure, by providing information on electromagnetic emissions, the deployment of mobile phone towers, use of mobile phone handsets and associated health issues. The package includes a series of ACA and ARPANSA fact sheets and frequently asked questions, the ACA's Mobile phones, your health and radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation and Telecommunications Facilities – Information for rural communities brochures, and a DVD Mobile Communications and Health.
