Conclusions

Based on the above analysis it is concluded that harmful levels of radiation will not exist in areas
normally occupied by the public or the SNG operations personnel, as the antenna is mounted on
top of the SNG trailer of which is 13 (thirteen) feet tall. This height keeps the public and
operators well clear of the edge of the reflector during times of operation. The SNG is marked
with radiation hazard signs. The only access to the antenna area is from the roof of the truck and
is limited to access by trained SNG personnel. With the normal look angles used within the
United States, the five-degree or better look angles move the hazard even further away from the
public. To ensure the compliance with safety limits, the transmitter will be turned off and marked
to remain off whenever rooftop access is needed and whenever maintenance and repair personnel
are within the radiation areas that exceed the levels recommended by applicable guidelines.
Additionally, the SNG operator is always at the SNG vehicle during operations to keep the
hazard area secure and insure that the guidelines are enforced.
