Calif. SB-649 Will Fast Track Approve 5G Small Cell Antennas EVERYWHERE in California – April 3 Deadline to Comment

“This bill strips local government of the authority to protect the quality of life of their residents, and to protect public property and the public right-of-way from relatively unconstrained access by small cells.
 
Neither the CPUC, nor the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) can be relied on to serve the public interest because they are both regulatory captured agencies.

[Editor's Note: This bill was amended on March 28, 2017 to give it the appearance of greater input by local government, but it's nothing more than window dressing. The purpose of the bill to to place authority to install these 5G installations under state authority and federal authority and to remove it from local government control where it rightly belongs. These 5G networks are going to eventually DEVASTATE the health of the majority of the public exposed to these ultra high frequency microwave energy fields. For this bill, there is only ONE, well bribed, whore-politician named Hueso who is responsible for setting this nightmare calamity into motion for millions of people in California. This is a crime against humanity itself and this uninformed, clueless, but useful idiot, Sen Ben Hueso (anchor baby American, parents from Mexico, Latino Caucus Chair Democrat elected Nov 2013), needs to be run out of office for sponsoring this bill.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of UNTHINKING people in this country and abroad pay NO ATTENTION WHATSOVER to articles or videos that discuss the grave health damage that is taking place among billions of people around the world using WiFi devices and bathing themselves daily in high intensity microwave energy fields. I've never witnessed such WILLFUL STUPIDITY AND RECKLESS DISREGARD for ones own longevity and health. BILLIONS of adults are going to live one HALF of the life span that they THINK they're going to live because they're going to die early due to the accumulated effects from microwave damage. Young children using WiFi are going to live one THIRD of their expected life span. Read the pdf files posted further below on microwave fields damage to health from Gary Vesperman if you don't believe me.

If you're carrying around a Smart phone or its equivalent, consider yourself among the Walking Dead Morons described above. And I AM NOT KIDDING. The ONLY way to end this coming apocalypse is to STOP using WiFi devices and to TAKE DOWN the cell towers. There is no other way. ..Ken Adachi]

http://senate.ca.gov/media-archive

The CHAIRMAN of the Senate Standing Committee on Energy, Utilities and Communications who will vote to recommend or to not recommend SB-649, is none other than Sen Ben Hueso, the sponsor of the bill. If this isn’t a CONFLICT OF INTEREST, I don’t know what is. I doubt if any member of this committee will vote against recommending it. Since there ar 8 Democrats on this committee, they will all go along with a “yes” vote, even if Hueso recuses himself from voting. It remains to be seen whether any of the 3 Republicans on this committee possesses a brain, or has a conscience to stand up for the health of his constituents, or has any awareness of the dangers of microwave energy fields. My guess is they will also vote “yes,” to this bill, but who knows. Miracles do happen, occasionally. Once this bill is voted out of committee, the Big Money Boys of Telecommunicatons (Trillion dollar industry, beggest in the world) will push for a rapid vote in the California Seante and onto the Assembly, for another rubber stamping. Unless many thousands of outraged California citizens go for the political throats of each politician who votes in favor of SB0649, this bill is going to be fast tracked and signed into law within a few weeks once it’s out of committee.

Oppose SB-649 “small cells” in California

http://emfsafetynetwork.org/oppose-sb-649-small-cells-in-california/

SB-649 is a current California Senate bill introduced by Senator HuesoEMF Safety Network opposes this bill because it will fast track wireless radiation antenna deployments in our neighborhoods and communities, and thwart public participation.

The League of California Cities opposes SB-649.  They describe it stating, “This proposal unnecessarily and unconstitutionally strips local authority over public property and shuts out public input and local discretion by eliminating consideration of the aesthetic and environmental impacts of “small cells.”

Suggested comments: If you need help with what to say you can use any or all of these comments which are adapted in part from the California League of Cities form letter, and our letter.
 
Dear Senator Hueso,
 
I respectfully oppose SB-649. This proposal unnecessarily and unconstitutionally strips local authority over public property and shuts out public input and local discretion by eliminating consideration of the aesthetic and environmental impacts of “small cells.”
 
International scientists and doctors advise reducing wireless radiation exposure to protect public and environmental health.
 
Wireless disrupts cellular communication, damages immune and nervous systems, desynchronizes brain and heart rhythms, and causes headaches, sleep problems, tinnitus, anxiety and a host of other health problems.
 
5G millimeter wave technology is scientifically shown to affect humans, penetrating the skin and affecting biological systems.
 
There is no substantial evidence to support SB649′s determination that the deployment fits the CEQA [California Environmental Quality Act ] exemption. There is substantial evidence in support of a fair argument that the project may create environmental impacts.
 
The National Toxicology Program published a 25 million dollar study which is one of the largest and most comprehensive studies on cell phone radiation and cancer. In the study the rats exposed to cell phone radiation developed two types of cancers, glioma, a brain tumor, and schwannoma, a tumor in the heart.
 
This bill strips local government of the authority to protect the quality of life of their residents, and to protect public property and the public right-of-way from relatively unconstrained access by small cells.
 
Neither the CPUC, nor the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) can be relied on to serve the public interest because they are both regulatory captured agencies.
 
SB 649 goes too far by requiring local governments to approve “small cells” in all land use zones, including residential zones, through a ministerial permit, thereby shutting the public out of decisions that could affect the aesthetics of their community and the quality of their environment.
Thank you!
[your name]

SB-649

AMENDED  IN  SENATE  MARCH 28, 2017

https://legiscan.com/CA/text/SB649/2017

CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2017–2018 REGULAR SESSION

SENATE BILL

Introduced by Senator Hueso
(Principal coauthor: Assembly Member Quirk)
(Coauthor: Senator Dodd)

February 17, 2017

No. 649

An act to amend ]removed text]Section 65964 of, and to add Section 65964.2 to, the Government Code, relating to telecommunications.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

 

SB 649, as amended, Hueso. Wireless telecommunications facilities.
Under existing law, a wireless telecommunications collocation facility, as specified, is subject to a city or county discretionary permit and is required to comply with specified criteria, but a collocation facility, which is the placement or installation of wireless facilities, including antennas and related equipment, on or immediately adjacent to that wireless telecommunications collocation facility, is a permitted use not subject to a city or county discretionary permit. [removed text]
 
This bill would provide that a small cell is a permitted use, not subject to a city or county discretionary permit, if the small cell meets specified requirements. By imposing new duties on local agencies, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The bill would authorize a city or county to require an administrative permit for small cell, as specified. The bill would define the term “small cell” [removed text]
 
Under existing law, a city or county, as a condition of approval of an application for a permit for construction or reconstruction of a development project for a wireless telecommunications facility, may not require an escrow deposit for removal of a wireless telecommunications facility or any component thereof, unreasonably limit the duration of any permit for a wireless telecommunications facility, or require that all wireless telecommunications facilities be limited to sites owned by particular parties within the jurisdiction of the city or county, as specified.
This bill would [removed text] require permits for these facilities to be renewed for equivalent durations, as specified.
 
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.

Bill Text

[see source for struck through text not shown here : https://legiscan.com/CA/text/SB649/2017 ]

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1.

  The Legislature finds and declares that, to ensure that communities across the state have access to the most advanced wireless communications technologies and the transformative solutions that robust wireless connectivity enables, such as Smart Communities and the Internet of Things, California should work in coordination with federal, state, and local officials to create a statewide framework for the deployment of advanced wireless communications infrastructure in California that does all of the following:
(a) Reaffirms local governments’ historic role and authority with respect to wireless communications infrastructure siting and construction generally.
 
(b) Reaffirms that deployment of telecommunications facilities in the rights-of-way is a matter of statewide concern, subject to a statewide franchise, and that expeditious deployment of telecommunications networks generally is a matter of both statewide and national concern.
 
(c) Recognizes that the impact on local interests from individual small wireless facilities will be sufficiently minor and that such deployments should be a permitted use statewide and should not be subject to discretionary zoning review.
 
(d) Requires expiring permits for these facilities to be renewed so long as the site maintains compliance with use conditions adopted at the time the site was originally approved.
 
(e) Requires providers to obtain all applicable building or encroachment permits and comply with all related health, safety, and objective aesthetic requirements for small wireless facility deployments on a ministerial basis.
 
(f) Grants providers fair, reasonable, nondiscriminatory, and nonexclusive access to locally owned utility poles, street lights, and other suitable host infrastructure located within the public right-of-way and in other local public places such as stadiums, parks, campuses, hospitals, transit stations, and public buildings consistent with all applicable health and safety requirements, including Public Utilities Commission General Order 95.
 
(g) Provides for full recovery by local governments of the costs of attaching small wireless facilities to utility poles, street lights, and other suitable host infrastructure in a manner that is consistent with existing federal and state laws governing utility pole attachments generally.
 
(h) Permits local governments to charge wireless permit fees that are fair, reasonable, nondiscriminatory, and cost based.
 
(i) Advances technological and competitive neutrality while not adding new requirements on competing providers that do not exist today.

[former Sec. 2 text struck through and replaced with:]

SEC. 2.

 Section 65964 of the Government Code is amended to read:
65964.
 As a condition of approval of an application for a permit for construction or reconstruction for a development project for a wireless telecommunications facility [old text removed], as defined in Section 65850.6, a city or county shall not do any of the following:
 
(a) Require an escrow deposit for removal of a wireless telecommunications facility or any component thereof. However, a performance bond or other surety or another form of security may be required, so long as the amount of the bond security is rationally related to the cost of removal. In establishing the amount of the security, the city or county shall take into consideration information provided by the permit applicant regarding the cost of removal.
 
(b) Unreasonably limit the duration of any permit for a wireless telecommunications facility. Limits of less than 10 years are presumed to be unreasonable absent public safety reasons or substantial land use reasons. However, cities and counties may establish a build-out period for a site. A permit shall be renewed for an equivalent duration unless the city or county makes a finding that the wireless telecommunications facility does not comply with the codes and permit conditions applicable at the time the permit was initially approved.
 
(c) Require that all wireless telecommunications facilities be limited to sites owned by particular parties within the jurisdiction of the city or county.

SEC. 3. [new, added section]

 Section 65964.2 is added to the Government Code, to read:
65964.2.
 (a) A small cell shall be a permitted use not subject to a city or county discretionary permit if it satisfies the following requirements:
 
(1) The small cell is located in the public right-of-way in any zone or in any zone that includes a commercial or industrial use.
 
(2) The small cell complies with all applicable state and local health and safety regulations.
 
(3) The small cell is not located on a fire department facility.
 
(b) (1) A city or county may require that the small cell be approved pursuant to a single administrative permit provided that the permit is issued within the time frames required by state and federal law.
 
(2) An administrative permit may be subject to the following:
 
(A) The same administrative permit requirements as similar construction projects applied in a nondiscriminatory manner.
 
(B) The submission of additional information showing that the small cell complies the Federal Communications Commission’s regulations concerning radio frequency emissions referenced in Section 332(c)(7)(B)(iv) of Title 47 of the United States Code.
 
(3) The administrative permit shall not be subject to:
 
(A) Requirements to provide additional services, directly or indirectly, including, but not limited to, in-kind contributions such as reserving fiber, conduit, or pole space.
 
(B) The submission of any additional information other than that required of similar construction projects, except as specifically provided in this section.
 
(C) Limitations on routine maintenance or the replacement of small cells with small cells that are substantially similar, the same size or smaller.
 
(D) The regulation of any antennas mounted on cable strands.
 
(c) A city or county shall not preclude the leasing or licensing of its vertical infrastructure located in public right-of-way or public utility easements under the terms set forth in this paragraph. Vertical infrastructure shall be made available under fair and reasonable fees, terms, and conditions and offered on a nondiscriminatory basis for small cells. Fees shall be cost-based, and shall not exceed the lesser of either of the following:
 
(1) The costs of ownership of the percentage of the volume of the capacity of the vertical infrastructure rendered unusable by a small cell.
 
(2) The rate produced by applying the formula adopted by the Federal Communications Commission for telecommunications pole attachments in Section 1.1409(e)(2) of Part 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
 
(d) A city or county shall not unreasonably discriminate in the leasing or licensing of property not located in the public right-of-way owned or operated by the city or county for installation of a small cell. A city or county shall authorize the installation of a small cell on property owned or controlled by the city or county not located within the public right-of-way to the same extent the city or county permits access to that property for commercial projects or uses. These installations shall be subject to reasonable and nondiscriminatory rates, terms, and conditions.
 
(e) For purposes of this section, the following terms have the following meanings:
 
(1) (A) “Small cell” means a wireless telecommunications facility, as defined in Section 65850.6, using licensed or unlicensed spectrum that meets the following qualifications:
 
(i) Any individual antenna, excluding the associated equipment, is individually no more than three cubic feet in volume, and all antennas on the structure total no more than six cubic feet in volume, whether in a single array or separate.
 
(ii) (I) The associated equipment on pole structures does not exceed 21 cubic feet for poles that can support fewer than three providers or 28 cubic feet for pole collocations that can support at least three providers, or the associated equipment on nonpole structures does not exceed 28 cubic feet for collocations that can support fewer than three providers or 35 cubic feet for collocations that can support at least three providers.
 
(II) The following types of associated ancillary equipment are not included in the calculation of equipment volume:
 
(ia) Electric meters and any required pedestal.
(ib) Concealment elements.
(ic) Any telecommunications demarcation box.
(id) Grounding equipment.
(ie) Power transfer switch.
(if) Cut-off switch.
(ig) Vertical cable runs for the connection of power and other services.
 
(B) “Small cell” does not include communications infrastructure extending beyond the telecommunications demarcation box.
 
(2) “Vertical infrastructure” means all poles or similar facilities owned or controlled by a city or county that are in the public right-of-way or public utility easements and meant for, or used in whole or in part for, communications service, electric service, lighting, traffic control, signage, or similar functions.
 
(f) The Legislature finds and declares that small cells, as defined in this section, have a significant economic impact in California and are not a municipal affair as that term is used in Section 5 of Article XI of the California Constitution, but are a matter of statewide concern.

SEC. 4. [new, added section]

 No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution because a local agency or school district has the authority to levy service charges, fees, or assessments sufficient to pay for the program or level of service mandated by this act, within the meaning of Section 17556 of the Government Code.

Dear Friends,

In 2016 I wrote five books describing the hazards of toxic wireless radiation from cell phones and towers, smart meters, Wi-Fi, and wireless computer accessories such as wireless printers, keyboards and mice. They total 1000 pages and are listed below. Since then, I could have written at least two more big books.
 
My website also links to 40 additional authoritative reports re toxic wireless radiation.
 
Those of you who don’t live in California should forward this to all of your friends and relatives who live in California.

I am writing today to let you know of my opposition to the FCC’s plan to speed 5G to market which would require a “massive” increase in infrastructure in FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler’s own words, which will be voted on July 14, 2016. Currently, there is more than enough infrastructure to provide cellular services to everyone in the US – as of December 2015, there are 308,000 cell antenna facilities for 378 million wireless subscribers (current US population is 321 million), which is 116% market penetration.

ABC Censors Catalyst Wifi Report, Suspends Reporter, and Embarrasses Itself, July 7, 2016 by Global Freedom Movement (Rec. 7.10.16)
Perhaps “ABC” is really an acronym for Abominable Broadcasting Censorship?
In a nutshell, the “public” broadcasting platform has caved in to industry (it’s not the first time) and its designated “scientific” spokespersons.
Briefly, in February this year, reporter Maryanne Demasi put together this Catalyst wifi report, entitled “Wi-fried”, highlighting the potential “hidden” dangers of wi-fi. However, she has now been suspended until September while an “investigation” into the episode is carried out. Evidently “the investigation was initiated after the ABC received complaints from viewers about the episode.”

Barrie Trower “The Cooking of Humanity ” Microwaves, Smart Meters and the use of electronics for “mind control” *UPDATED* (Rec. 7.10.16)

So for the last 40 years the English government has been lying to the people. And the American, the Canadian, the Australian, they have been lying.

They have been lying to protect industry, to protect their profits, to protect themselves from lawsuits.
So they are really just liars and it is provable, sanctioned by the World Health Organization, without a shadow of a doubt. It is the same people that sit on the ICNAP certificate, sit on our government health protection agencies, sit on the World Health Organization … it is the same people. There are probably no more than 20 of them. But, yes, they are going to, in my opinion, commit the worst genocide this planet has ever known, not just people, but animals and plants. They are probably going to cause more destruction than a global war, and in several hundred years time, people will look back, whoever survives, and look at what we tried to do to stop…

The Health Argument against Cell Phones and Cell Towers (Rec. 8.18.16) (*.pdf file)
Instead of increasing our exposure to cellular radiation, and to the radiation from other digital wireless devices, we can decrease our exposure and improve our chances for good health. Desirable steps in this direction include the following (listed).

A well-balanced treatment of symptoms is justified until the causes have been identified and eliminated. However, it is of paramount importance to realize that the reduction of symptoms may put the person at risk for an increased environmental EMF load, thus generating possible future, long-term health effects, including neurological damage and cancer. The treating physician faces a very diffi- cult ethical task when doing so, and the associated risks must be pointed out – in an equally well-balanced way – to the patient in question.xxx

Official Journal of the European Communities 30.7.1999 (70 pages)
EXPOSURE FROM SOURCES WITH MULTIPLE FREQUENCES: In situations where simultaneous exposure to fields of different frequencies occurs, the possibility that these exposures will be additive in their effects must be considered. Calculations based on such additivity should be performed separately for each effect; thus separate evaluations should be made for thermal and electrical stimulation effects on the body.

BEES, BIRDS AND MANKIND Destroying Nature by ‘Electrosmog’ (Rec. 9/9/16) (*.pdf file)
By Ulrich Warnke (45 pages).
This brochure shows how nature uses much wisdom and sensitivity in employing electric as well as magnetic fields in the creation of life. But, therefore, he is also in a position to convincingly criticize how foolish and irresponsible we are as we interfere with this delicate natural balance to day. According to the findings of this brochure, we are currently in the process of destroying in less than a few decades what nature took to create over millions of years.

Report from the Science & Wireless 2015 prepared for the Pandora Foundation and for the Kompetenzinitiative (Rec. 9/9/16) (*.pdf file)
By Dariusz Leszczynski, PhD, DSc (biochemistry) & Kirsti Leszczynski, PhD (physics) (8 pages)
The event consisted of two parts. The progress reports of the ongoing research projects conducted under the ‘umbrella’ of the Australian Centre for Electromagnetic Bioeffects Research (ACEBR) were presented in the first part (7 presentations). The second part of the event consisted of the brief presentation by the Director of the ACEBR followed, by the keynote presentation New international developments in RF bioeffect mechanism research.

REPORT from the BioEM2015 The Annual Meeting of BEMS & EBEA held in Asilomar, CA, USA on June 15 – 19, 2015 (Rec. 9/9/16) (*.pdf file)
(12 pages)
Because of my background in EMF research that focused on the biological and health effects of RF – EMF and because of the justified by scientific evidence concerns about the impact of long – term exposures of over 7 billion of cell phone users to RF – EMF, this report from the BioEM2015 focuses only on few representative examples of studies, from few selected topics to present some of the problems with the scientific evidence…

Brain Tumour Risk Associated with Use of Mobile and Cordless Phones (Rec. 9/9/16) (*.pdf file)
By Lennart Hardell, MD, PhD, Professor & Michael Carlberg, MSc (14 pages)
FINAL CONCLUSION: Based on our own research and literature review RF – EMF emissions from wireless phones should be regarded as human carcinogens. Supportive evidence comes from using the Hill criteria. Glioma and acoustic neuroma should be considered to be caused by RF – EMF emissions. Current guidelines for exposure need to be urgently revised.

Are Children at Increased Risk of Health Effects from Exposure to Radiation from Mobile Communication Devices? (Rec. 9/9/16) (*.pdf file)
By Michael Kundi, MD, Professor (7 pages)
Due to the larger proportion of red marrow in the bones of the head, a higher absorption of EMF energy will occur in the bones with potential negative effects on hematopoiesis. It must also be recognized that if exposure starts early in life a higher cumul ative dose can occur during lifetime. If EMFs have cumulative effects for which there is evidence from epidemiology then exposure already during childhood would be associated with an increased lifetime risk. For these reasons it is adequate to recommend ca ution for the use of mobile telecommunication by children and adolescents. Even more than for adults the recommendations for reduction of exposure to radiation from mobile phones should be observed by children and adolescents.

How Industry and Politics Has Been Dealing with the Radiation Protection of People – A historical review (Rec. 9/9/16) (*.pdf file)
By Franz Adlkofer, MD (9 pages)
Conclusion: Since the beginning of the 50’s in the last century the safety limits for radio frequency radiation contradict the state of scientific research. They do not protect people exposed to radiation but the interest of industry and politics. The way how they were introduced, ensured and defended meets all criteria for ‘institutional corruption’.

Wi-Fi adversely affects our Health (*.pdf file) (Rec. 9/9/16)
From Germany (2013) (5 pages)
Children, besides sick, disabled, and old people, are at particular risk from artificial electromagnetic fields. Since their bodies and brains are still developing, especially children are susceptible to unphysiological environmental conditions. Acting out their joy of discovery and following their drive to play, children perceive these wireless electronic devices as attractive toys—completely oblivious to any risk. As parents and guardians, we have the responsibility to safeguard the children who embody our future. We therefore recommend foregoing the use of Wi-Fi and instead choosing wired solutions, certainly at home as well as at schools and preschools; in short, in all places where children spend extended periods of time.

ELECTROMAGNETIC HYPERSENSITIVITY & HUMAN RIGHTS – COMMENTARY TO THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL COMMITTEE (Rec. 9/9/16) (*.pdf file)
ELECTROMAGNETIC HYPERSENSITIVITY & HUMAN RIGHTS – EMF: HR_EHS0141204 (13 pages)
Social inclusion is one of the major goals of sustainable development. It is also one of the main declared objectives of the European Union (Atkinson 2009). The best way to ensure Human Rights are adhered to and that EHS are not discriminated against is to adopt more protective EMF measures, develop safer technologies and encourage the creation of white zones in rural and urban areas.

Report on a U.S. Senate Hearing in Washington D.C. on September 14, 2009 (Rec. 9/9/16) (*.pdf file)
By Franz Adlkofer (4 Pages)
When Senator Harkin keeps his promise a period in the U.S. – a country in which after World War II research and development reached in nearly all areas the highest peak worldwide – will end that widely ignored the bio- logical effects of electromagnetic fields and the consequences following for humans. For decades the concerned industry succeeded in applying the numerous technological potentials of electromagnetic fields without giving rise to the suspicion that a health risk for the people might accompany this. With the fully unproven statement that there are – besides the biological effects of increased tissue temperature that can be prevented by fixing safety limits – no further biological effects of electromagnetic fields, as this would contradict the laws of physics, any research below the safety limits was declared ridiculous. Independent scientists not sticking to this rule were deprived of funds. That is why first progress in knowledge was achieved in other parts of the world, first in Russia followed by Europe and finally China.

Abstract (German “burnout syndrome” could be due to EMF below the legal limits) (Rec. 9/9/16) (*.pdf file)
The press, as well as radio and television have been reporting of a wave of sickness that sweeps through Germany. Millions of people complain of all kinds of nervous disorders and of a new common illness, called “burnout syndrome”. Even though the term “epidemics” is used, there is no due search for the causes. (1 page)
For this reason, the “fact sheet no. 296″ of the WHO of 2005 is obviously out of date. It denies any such “genuine” effect of radiofrequency radiation below the legal limits and therefore consigns countless people to psychiatric care. In the case of further inaction on the part of public health bodies, environmental associations consequently need to plan legal action against the government, demanding precautionary regulations and protective measures.
