"EHT and its fellow petitioners filed a reply before the federal court of appeals (DC Circuit) requesting that the Court retain jurisdiction and require a filing by the FCC within six months, either providing a reasoned explanation or advising the Court that the FCC will institute a new rulemaking to revise the current thermal-only, human-specific rules."
"The order required the FCC to provide a reasoned explanation for the Commission’s 2019 conclusion that its 1996 thermal-only radio-frequency exposure limits are adequate, despite pleas for compliance by EHT and others and a continually growing body of evidence of non-thermal harms from RF radiation below the 1996 limits."
"And despite this step, the FCC’s actions before the Court and elsewhere make the Commission’s priorities crystal clear: it is focused on swift broadband deployment and is intent on eliminating every perceived “barrier” to deployment, including those protecting human health and the environment."
"The five-year unexplained delay does not comport with the rule of reason, and the need for mandamus is not lessened by the mere possibility that the FCC might comply with the EHT order at some unspecified future date."
