SCE Doc. 77976 Att. Contract No. 9.5106
(Formerly Contract No. L.1167)
36. Electric and Magnetic Fields ("EMF"): There are numerous sources of power frequency
electric and magnetic field ("EMF"), including household or building wiring, electrical appliances and
electric power transmission and distribution facilities.There have been numerous scientific studies about
the potential health effects of EMF. Interest in a potential link between long-term exposures to EMF and
certain diseases is based on this scientific research and public concerns.
While some 40 years of research have not established EMF as a health hazard, some health authorities
have identified magnetic field exposures as a possible human carcinogen. Many of the questions about
diseases have been successfully resolved due to an aggressive international research program.However,
potentially important public health questions remain about whether there is a link between EMF
exposures in homes or work and some diseases including childhood leukemia and a variety of other adult
diseases (e.g. adult cancers and miscarriages). While scientific research is continuing on a wide range of
questions relating to exposures at both work and in our communities, a quick resolution of the remaining
scientific uncertainties is not expected.
Since Licensee plans to license or otherwise enter Licensor property that is in close proximity to Licensor
electric facilities, Licensor wants to share with Licensee and those who may enter the property under this
agreement, the information available about EMF. Accordingly, Licensor has attached to this document a
brochure that explains some basic facts about EMF and that describes Licensor policy on EMF. Licensor
also encourages Licensee to obtain other information as needed to assist in understanding the EMF
regarding the planned use of this property.
37. Induced Voltages: Licensee hereby acknowledges that any structures (including, but not
limited to, buildings, fences, light poles) that exist or may be constructed on the Property licensed herein,
(hereinafter, the"Structures") in close proximity to one or more high voltage (66 kilovolt or above) electric
transmission lines and/or substation facilities may be susceptible to induced voltages, static voltages
and/or related electric fault conditions (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Induced Voltages") unless
appropriate grounding or other mitigation measures are incorporated into the Structures. If not properly
mitigated, Induced Voltages can cause a variety of safety and/or nuisance conditions including, but not
limited to, electric shocks or other injuries to individuals contacting the Structures or other utilities
connected to the Structures (including, but not limited to, natural gas lines, water lines or cable television
lines), or interference with or damage to sensitive electronic equipment in or around the Structures.
Measures to mitigate Induced Voltages, if required, will vary from case to case because of factors such as
electric facility configuration and voltage, other utilities involved, or sensitivity of electronic equipment.
Licensee will be responsible to determine what Induced Voltages mitigation measures should be
undertaken regarding the Structures and to implement such mitigation measures at its sole cost and
expense.
Licensee agrees for itself and for its contractors, agents, licensees, invitees, and employees, to save
harmless and indemnify Licensor, its parent, subsidiaries and affiliated entities and their respective
officers and employees against all claims, loss, damage, actions, causes of action, expenses and/or
liability arising from or growing out of loss or damage to property, including Licensee's own personal
property, or injury to or death of persons, including employees of Licensee caused by or resulting from
or connected to Induced Voltages on or related to the Structures.
