About Protect National Quiet Zone

What is the National Radio Quiet Zone?

The National Radio Quiet Zone is a 13,000-square-mile region spanning across West Virginia, Virginia, and Maryland. Established in 1958 to protect the Green Bank Telescope from radiofrequency (RF) interference, it now also serves as a refuge for individuals suffering from Electromagnetic Radiation Syndrome (EMR-S). Unfortunately, wireless expansion in the region now threatens these protections — we need your help to preserve it.

Why Must We Protect the National Radio Quiet Zone?

  • It enables world-class radio astronomy. It maintains an extremely low-signal environment so the Green Bank Telescope can detect faint signals from space that cannot be observed anywhere else in the country.
  • It provides a safe place to live for people who become ill around strong wireless radiation. Individuals with Electromagnetic Radiation Syndrome (EMR-S) can live here without the debilitating symptoms they experience in modern environments with high levels of wireless radiation.
  • It is one of the nation’s only real-world control environments for low level exposure to  wireless radiation. This region offers one of the only true baselines to compare against for conditions with and without continuous wireless exposure, helping us understand the true extent of health and environmental impacts of wireless radiation that cannot be studied anywhere else.
  • It protects a rare low-radiation ecosystem. Wildlife, pollinators, and natural systems here exist without constant wireless stress, offering insight into ecological impacts that are otherwise virtually impossible to measure.
  • Once lost, it cannot be replaced or recreated. There is no other protected region like this in the United States, and its scientific and public-health value would be permanently eliminated if wireless expansion is allowed to override the Quiet Zone’s protections.
