Over the years, public concern has arisen about the research on electric and magnetic fields (EMF) in everyday life. Scientists have been researching potential health effects from EMF exposure since the 1960s. Multidisciplinary review studies have consistently concluded that there is insufficient evidence to establish causality between EMF and adverse human health hazards. Because of the lack of evidence, no “safe” or “unsafe” levels of exposure to EMF have been established by the government or health organizations. Safety is a main focus at PGE, and we appreciate concerns about EMF around power lines. We work to address those concerns by employing EMF industry best practices in siting power facilities; keeping informed on the latest research from universities, federal and state health agencies, industry-sponsored programs and international health organizations. More information is available in an EMF Fact Sheet posted under the ‘Resources’ tab.
