Non-ionizing radiation emission source selected and the advocacy of the National Geographic Information System Update Plan

Absrtact
The goal of this project was focused on the measurement and analysis of non-ionization radiation emission sources and public spaces. This year measurement operation had been conducted from 202 sites. All of the results were within the Electromagnetic Field (EMF) exposure limits. The Geographical information system developed specifically for this project was able to store all measurement data into the database for future reference and usage. For the measurement of the surrounding EMF strength at the neighborhood of Qigu, the average value of 34 sites and the value for long term measurement of each individual site were all within the Electromagnetic Field (EMF) exposure limits. The average values of all other electromagnetic radiation emission sources were under 1/1000 times the value of Electromagnetic Field (EMF) exposure limits. To support EPA seeking advices of subjects regarding non-ionization radiation emission from experts representing different fields, and to gave these experts a way to exchange information and opinions, this project held “Non-Atomic Ionization Radiation Risk Precaution and Concern Advisory Conference” together with EPA four times. This project had gathered and analyzed precaution measures from different countries and presented them during the conference, which helped drafting and establish non-atomic ionization radiation risk precaution and concern regulation and measure in Taiwan. This project held an international non-ionization radiation workshop, invited three American experts, each from one of the following American government agencies: USEPA, FCC, and NIEHS. The conference also invited domestic experts, EPA personnel, and non-profit environmental protection parties, totaled seventy attendants, to exchange information and opinion with American experts. The information exchanged during the conference was valuable for our understanding of international non-ionization radiation research and the establishment of opinion- exchanging platform of experts from different fields. Lastly, this project held five public workshops and three training sessions to EPB. It played a vital role in propagate correct concepts to local civilians, scholars, non-profit environmental organizations, and gave them an opportunity to participate in the discussion regarding non-ionization radiation subjects.
