Further discussion of the survey follows. <br /> SITE DESCRIPTION <br /> The surveyed cellular site is located at 515 South Greensboro Street, <br /> Carrboro, Orange County, North Carolina. The geographic coordinates of the site, <br /> referenced to the 1983 North American Datum, are: 35° 54' 09' North Latitude, 79° 04' <br /> 11" West Longitude. A 180-foot self-supporting tower has been erected at the site to <br /> support the KNKA293 base station antennas. Two, Decibel Products, type DB810, <br /> transmitting antennas are mounted at the top of the tower with center lines 187 feet <br /> above ground level (AGL). Six other antennas are mounted near the top of the tower, <br /> but these antennas are for receiving only. Access to the tower is restricted to <br /> authorized personnel by a fence with a lockable gate. A sketch of the cell site is shown <br /> in Figure 1 of this statement. <br /> EXPOSURE STANDARDS <br /> As stated earlier,analysis of the data collected in this survey is based on two <br /> standards for human exposure to radio-frequency electromagnetic fields: ANSI C95.1- <br /> 1982, the.-currently adopted FCC standard; and ANSMEEE C95.1-1992, the revision <br /> of ANSI C95.1-1982. The FCC is in the process of changing its rules to incorporate the <br /> revised standard, ANSLUEE C95.1-1992, in place of the current standard, ANSI <br /> C95.1-1982. It is expected that the FCC will incorporate the revised standard into its <br /> rules with few changes. <br />
