The Educational
and General Activities - UMS program within the University of Maine System
(UMS) will require a one-time General Fund appropriation of $15,000 in fiscal
year 2023-24 for the cost associated with faculty and/or graduate student
researchers conducting a literature review of the effects of so-called 5G
wireless technology on bird, bee and insect populations as well as the
effects of long-term exposure to the so-called 5G wireless technology and
radio frequency radiation on children in educational settings. The UMS has indicated that the cost to do a
clinical study would be at least $100,000. |
