PROJECT <br /> The Sprint project consists of a WCF (Wireless Communications Facility) located <br /> at 6515 Morgan Road, Everett, WA 98203, Snohomish County tax parcel <br /> 00393400002400. The improvements include (3) replacement panel antennas <br /> on an 89' AGL steel monopole with supporting BTS (Base Transmission System) <br /> radio equipment at the base of the monopole in an equipment vault at an on-air <br /> Sprint site. <br /> EQUIPMENT <br /> Type of Service: Broadband PCS <br /> Antennas: KMW ETCR-654L12M6 <br /> Sectors: 3 (alpha = 55°, beta = 160°, gamma = 295°) <br /> Antenna Rad Center: 86' AGL <br /> CALCULATIONS <br /> Calculations for RF power densities near ground level are based on the <br /> "Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio <br /> Frequency Electromagnetic Fields OET Bulletin 65" Edition 97-01, August <br /> 1997 issued by the Federal Communications Commission Office of Engineering <br /> & Technology. <br /> Section 2 of OET Bulletin 65 demonstrates that "for a truly worst-case prediction <br /> of power density at or near the surface, such as at ground-level or on a rooftop, <br /> 100% reflection of incoming radiation can be assumed, resulting in a potential <br /> doubling of predicted field strength and a four-fold increase in (far field <br /> equivalent) power density". Therefore, the following equation is used: <br /> S = EIRP/rrR2 <br /> Where S = power density (mW/cm2), EIRP = equivalent isotropically radiated <br /> power and R = distance to the center of the radiation antenna (cm) <br /> Attached as an exhibit are the MPE (Maximum Permissible Exposure) <br /> calculations using the above referenced formula and the antenna manufacturer <br /> vertical pattern information using a conservative 20 dB loss below main lobe. <br /> The calculations show that the maximum MPE at ground level (6' above AGL) at <br />
