Joint Resolution from the 1998 North American Ornithological Conference DEADLY SPIRES IN THE NIGHT: The impact of communications towers on migratory birds
Issue Brief from the Ornithological Council, Oct. 1999: Most bird species in North America migrate at night, and some of these birds are killed when they collide with communications towers. ... The cumulative impact of these collisions on bird populations on a national, regional, or species scale is unknown but probably accounts for at least 2 million deaths annually. Guidelines and Submission Requirements for Antennas on Federal Property in the National Capital Region "The Antenna Task Force was created to investigate the various visual, health and safety issues raised by the general public regarding the proliferation of antennas in the National Capital Region (NCR). The Task Force examined various issues, including: aesthetic concerns related to antennas; human health and safety effects associated with exposure to radiofrequency (RF) radiation; the cumulative visual and health effects of transmitting antennas; and the potential for new telecommunications technology to replace existing antennas."
