EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Purpose of Report
EnviroBusiness Inc. (dba EBI Consulting) has been contracted by ExteNet Systems, Inc to conduct radio
frequency electromagnetic (RFEME) modeling for Ext eNet Site NWWAWINONASC00218 to be
located on a pole at S 180th Street in Renton, Washington to determine RFEME exposure levels from
proposed wireless communications equipment at this site. As described in greater detail in Appendix B,
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has developed Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE)
Limits for general public exposures and occupational exposures. This report summarizes the results of
RFEME modeling in relation to relevant FCC RFEME compliance standards for limiting human exposure
to RFEME fields.
Modeling results included in this report are based on site node list dated February 24, 2021 as provided
to EBI Consulting. Subsequent changes to the drawings or site design may yield changes in the MPE levels
or FCC Compliance recommendations.
No buildings were identified within 20 feet of the pole, therefore modeling of adjacent structures was not
included in the modeling analysis.

2.0 BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND MODELING PROCEDURE
EBI has performed theoretical modeling using Roofmaster™ software to estimate the worstcase power
density at the site antenna face and groundlevel r esulting from the operation of the antennas. Using the
computational methods set forth in Federal Communications (FCC) Office of Engineering & Technology
(OET) Bulletin 65, “Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radiofrequency
Electromagnetic Fields” (OET65), Roofmaster™ calcu lates predicted power density in a scalable grid
based on the contributions of all RF sources characterized in the study scenario. At each grid location,
the cumulative power density is expressed as a percentage of the FCC limits. Manufacturer antenna
pattern data is utilized in these calculations. Roofmaster™ models consist of the Far Field model as
specified in OET65 and an implementation of the OE T65 Cylindrical Model (Sula9). The models utilize
several operational specifications for different types of antennas to produce a plot of spatiallyaver aged
power densities that can be expressed as a percentage of the applicable exposure limit.
For this report, EBI utilized antenna and power data provided by ExteNet and compared the resultant
worstcase MPE levels to the FCC’s occupational/con trolled exposure limits outlined in OET Bulletin 65.
The assumptions used in the modeling are based upon information provided by ExteNet and information
gathered from other sources. The parameters used for modeling are summarized in Section 1.0.
A site is considered out of compliance with FCC regulations if there are areas that exceed the FCC
exposure limits and there are no RF hazard mitigation measures in place. Any carrier which has an
installation that contributes more than 5% of the applicable MPE must participate in mitigating these RF
hazards.

3.0 MITIGATION/SITE CONTROL OPTIONS
EBI’s modeling indicates that there are no areas in front of the Verizon antennas that exceed the FCC
standards for occupational or general public exposure at ground level. All exposures above the FCC’s safe
limits require that individuals be elevated above the ground. In order to alert people accessing the pole
blue notice signs are recommended for installation on opposite sides of the pole, 3 feet below the lowest
antenna (36.6 feet above ground level).
To reduce the risk of exposure and/or injury, EBI recommends that access to areas associated with the
active antenna installation be restricted and secured where possible.
Access to this site is accomplished by approaching the pole at ground level. Access to the antennas is
gained via a lift or climbing with fall protection and therefore the antennas are not considered to be
accessible to the general public.
Implementation of recommended signage in this report will bring this site into compliance with the FCC’s
rules and regulations.

The FCC has established Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits for human exposure to
Radiofrequency Electromagnetic (RFEME) energy fiel ds, based on exposure limits recommended by the
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) and, over a wide range of
frequencies, the exposure limits developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.
(IEEE) and adopted by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) to replace the 1982 ANSI
guidelines. Limits for localized absorption are based on recommendations of both ANSI/IEEE and NCRP.
The FCC guidelines incorporate two separate tiers of exposure limits that are based upon
occupational/controlled exposure limits (for workers) and general public/uncontrolled exposure limits for
members of the general public.
Occupational/controlled exposure limits apply to situations in which persons are exposed as a
consequence of their employment and in which those persons who are exposed have been made fully
aware of the potential for exposure and can exercise control over their exposure. Occupational/
controlled exposure limits also apply where exposure is of a transient nature as a result of incidental
passage through a location where exposure levels may be above general public/uncontrolled limits (see
below), as long as the exposed person has been made fully aware of the potential for exposure and can
exercise control over his or her exposure by leaving the area or by some other appropriate means.
General public/uncontrolled exposure limits apply to situations in which the general public may be
exposed or in which persons who are exposed as a consequence of their employment may not be made
fully aware of the potential for exposure or cannot exercise control over their exposure. Therefore,
members of the general public would always be considered under this category when exposure is not
employmentrelated, for example, in the case of a t elecommunications tower that exposes persons in a
nearby residential area.
Table 1 and Figure 1 (below), which are included within the FCC’s OET Bulletin 65, summarize the MPE
limits for RF emissions. These limits are designed to provide a substantial margin of safety. They vary by
frequency to take into account the different types of equipment that may be in operation at a particular
facility and are “timeaveraged” limits to reflect different durations resulting from controlled and
uncontrolled exposures.
The FCC’s MPEs are measured in terms of power (mW) over a unit surface area (cm2). Known as the
power density, the FCC has established an occupational MPE of 5 milliwatts per square centimeter
(mW/cm2) and an uncontrolled MPE of 1 mW/cm2 for equipment operating in the 1900 MHz frequency
range.
Equipment operating in the 700 MHz frequency range has an established occupational MPE of 2.33
(mW/cm2) and a general public MPE of 0.47 mW/cm2, equipment operating in the 850 MHz frequency
range the occupational MPE is 2.83 mW/cm2 and the general public MPE is 0.57 mW/cm2, and equipment
operating in the 1900 and 2100 MHz frequency range the occupational MPE is 5 mW/cm2 and general
public MPE is 1 mW/cm2. These limits are considered protective of these populations.

Based on the above, the most restrictive thresholds for exposures of unlimited duration to RF energy for
several personal wireless services are summarized below:
Personal Wireless Service Approximate
Frequency
Occupational
MPE Public MPE
Microwave (Point to Point) 5,000 80,000 MHz 5.00 mW/cm2 1.00 mW/cm2
Broadband Radio (BRS) 2,600 MHz 5.00 mW/cm2 1.00 mW/cm2
Wireless Communication (WCS) 2,300 MHz 5.00 mW/cm2 1.00 mW/cm2
Advanced Wireless (AWS) 2,100 MHz 5.00 mW/cm2 1.00 mW/cm2
Personal Communication (PCS) 1,950 MHz 5.00 mW/cm2 1.00 mW/cm2
Cellular Telephone 870 MHz 2.90 mW/cm2 0.58 mW/cm2
Specialized Mobile Radio (SMR) 855 MHz 2.85 mW/cm2 0.57 mW/cm2
Long Term Evolution (LTE) 700 MHz 2.33 mW/cm2 0.47 mW/cm2
Most Restrictive Frequency Range 30 300 MHz 1.00 mW/cm2 0.20 mW/cm2
MPE limits are designed to provide a substantial margin of safety. These limits apply for continuous
exposures and are intended to provide a prudent margin of safety for all persons, regardless of age, gender,
size, or health.
Personal Communication Services (PCS) facilities operate within a frequency range of 18501990 MHz.
Facilities typically consist of: 1) electronic transceivers (the radios or cabinets) connected to wired
telephone lines; and 2) antennas that send the wireless signals created by the transceivers to be received
by individual subscriber units (PCS telephones). Transceivers are typically connected to antennas by
coaxial cables.
Advanced Wireless Services (AWS) facilities operate within a frequency range of 21552180 MHz. Facilit ies
typically consist of: 1) electronic transceivers (the radios or cabinets); and 2) antennas that send the
wireless signals created by the transceivers to be received by individual subscriber units. Transceivers are
typically connected to antennas by coaxial cables.
Because of the short wavelength of PCS/AWS services, the antennas require lineofsite paths for good
propagation, and are typically installed above ground level. Antennas are constructed to concentrate
energy towards the horizon, with as little energy as possible scattered towards the ground or the sky.
This design, combined with the low power of PCS facilities, generally results in no possibility for exposure
to approach Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) levels, with the exception of areas directly in front of
the antennas.
FCC Compliance Requirement
A site is considered out of compliance with FCC regulations if there are areas that exceed the FCC
exposure limits and there are no RF hazard mitigation measures in place. Any carrier which has an
installation that contributes more than 5% of the applicable MPE must participate in mitigating these RF
hazards.

RF Signage and Safety Information
RF Signage
Areas or portions of any transmitter site may be susceptible to high power densities that could cause personnel
exposures in excess of the FCC guidelines. These areas must be demarcated by conspicuously posted signage that
identifies the potential exposure. Signage MUST be viewable regardless of the viewer’s position.
GUIDELINES NOTICE CAUTION WARNING
This sign will inform anyone of
the basic precautions to
follow when entering an
access point to an area with
transmitting radiofrequency
equipment.
This sign indicates that RF
emissions may exceed the
FCC General Population MPE
limit.
This sign indicates that RF
emissions may exceed the
FCC Occupational MPE limit.
This sign indicates that RF
emissions may exceed at least
10x the FCC Occupational
MPE limit.
NOC INFORMATION
Information signs are used as a means to provide contact information for any questions or
concerns. They will include specific cell site identification information and the Verizon
Wireless Network Operations Center phone number.
Physical Barriers
Physical barriers are control measures that require awareness and participation of personnel. Physical barriers
are employed as an additional administration control to complement RF signage and physically demarcate an
area in which RF exposure levels may exceed the FCC General Population limit. Example: chainconnected
stanchions
Indicative Markers
Indicative markers are visible control measures that require awareness and participation of personnel, as they
cannot physically prevent someone from entering an area of potential concern. Indicative markers are employed
as an additional administration control to complement RF signage and visually demarcate an area in which RF
exposure levels may exceed the FCC General Population limit. Example: paint stripes
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Requirements
A formal adopter of FCC Standards, OSHA stipulates that those in the Occupational classification must complete
training in the following: RF Safety, RF Awareness, and Utilization of Personal Protective Equipment. OSHA also
provides options for Hazard Prevention and Control:
Hazard Prevention Control
• Utilization of good equipment
• Enact control of hazard areas
• Limit exposures
• Employ medical surveillance and accident
response
• Employ Lockout/Tag out
• Utilize personal alarms & protective
clothing
• Prevent access to hazardous locations
• Develop or operate an administrative
control program
