EMF-provisions answer from the WHO
----------------------------------
Dear Mr. Scheingraber,
I agree that laboratory studies of Electric and Magnetic fields do not represent the situation one encounters in the environment, both with respect to the orientation of the fields as well as the impacts of previous exposures. In addition it may be that these laboratory studies use doses that are too low to demonstrate an effect at a statistically significant level.
To address this WHO advocates the undertaking of a cohort study of such size as to demonstrate any effect with statistical reliability. In addition we propose a wide array of laboratory studies designed with particular concern for the use of the results in human health risk assessments. These studies are outlined in our 2003 Research Agenda available at our website, www.who.int/emf.
We do not preclude the possible interaction of different fields or the overlay of previous exposures to biological and chemical hazards. However, laboatory studies designed to uncover these issues are extremely difficult to undertake and it appears that the best chance for resolution of these issues lies in careflully controlled epidemioloc studies.
Finally, we have invited comments on approaches to protect public health through use of precautinary principle when the data for an adverse health outcome are uncertain. Our draft proposal is also on our website.
Yours truly

'Undemocratic' planning laws criticised
---------------------------------------
BBC NEWS England Oxfordshire
Utility companies do not have to seek planning permission
Plans to build new telephone masts in Oxford have prompted a campaign to change the planning law. Oxford City Council bosses say it is "undemocratic" that private utility companies are allowed to bypass planning controls.
Under current legislation, private utility firms have permitted development rights, which allow them to select sites for new masts without seeking council planning permission.
In Oxford, Network Rail recently planned to install three 30 metre telecommunications masts in Wolvercote, Cowley and at Oxford Station. But after the city council put forward the concerns of local residents, the firm has announced a number of new sites instead.
Local rights
Council leader councillor Alex Hollingsworth, has now written to planning minister Keith Hill asking him to urgently review planning legislation. Mr Hollingsworth said: "All private companies have to seek planning permission from the council for most of their developments, except for private utility companies.
"I fail to see why they should have the right to make decisions for themselves and stop the public and the council from scrutinising their developments.
"We are determined to overturn this undemocratic law and we are campaigning for the right of local people to have their say on new developments."
The council is currently looking at the new sites proposed by Network Rail.

Protests against mobile masts
------------------------------
BBC NEWS England Devon News in brief
Three new applications for mobile phone masts in Exeter are being opposed by local people.
The highest number of objections relate to an application by T-mobile to put a 15 metre-high mast behind the Texaco filling station in Western Way.
There are also applications to put a mobile phone mast behind the Shell Garage in Topsham Road and on Blackboy roundabout.
Planning officers are recommending approval in each case, saying similar applications have been allowed on appeal and it would be difficult to defend refusal in these cases.

Lighting / Shift work and Breast Cancer
---------------------------------------
Dear Don,
I am not sure if anyone has sent this to you yet. The British Health and Safety Executive (who we have problems with re monitoring base station emission) commissioned a critical review of shift work and breast cancer.
It concludes that there could be "potential mechanism" between shift work and breast cancer because if altered light exposure at night (strip lighting) on levels of melatonin or other hormones that might affect cancer.
Professor Anthony Swerdlow from the Institute of Cancer Reseach, who carried out the study, stated: "There is no doubt that exposure to artificial light decreases the level of melatonin". Having just read the report of the disappointing "60 Minutes" Dr French programme I think the circumstances of the "shift work / breast cancer" study is relevant. Claims that shift work could lead to breast cancer first emerged in Britain in 1987 although subsequent studies have failed to establish a definitive link. With 2 million British women in shift work and at risk, this "official study" confirms that there is a link, after 16 years.
With all this concern on brain tumours I think there is a far greater
risk to women from mobile phone use/base station emissions and breast
cancer.

Communities shun Patriot Act
Washington Times
"About 165 communities nationwide have passed resolutions condemning the USA Patriot Act. But one little city in northern California has taken its opposition a step further, making it a misdemeanor for city employees to cooperate in enforcing the federal antiterrorism measure. In March, Arcata officials set down a $57 fine for those who don't 'promptly notify the city manager' if federal law-enforcement authorities contact them seeking help in an investigation, interrogation or arrest under the provisions of the act."
