Regulation no. 256/2009, that lays down rules governing the identification of radiocommunications fixed stations and signalling of locations where such stations are set up has been published yesterday in the Official Gazette, II Series.
According to this regulation, antennas, structures supporting them and respective set up locations must bear signs indicating the levels of radiation emission and the degree of hazardousness, if any, to populations close to these infrastructures. Likewise, the placing of appropriate fences that do not allow for a contact with aerials within reach has also been provided for.
Users of radiocommunication stations have now been granted a period of 120 days from the date of publication of this statutory instrument to implement the rules provided for therein, with the exception of stations that have not undertaken the necessary measuring, pursuant to Regulation no. 96-A/2007, of 29 May, as well as of the obligation to identify radiocommunication stations provided for in article 13 of the Regulation, compliance with which follows from Decree-Law no. 151-A/2000, and thus no time extension may apply.
