TRANSMISSION PROJECT INFORMATION SHEETS TRANSMISSION PROJECT FACT SHEETS ATCO Electric’s award winning Historical & Archaeological Resource Protection Plan and Crop Protection Plan are examples of our steadfast commitment to Albertans, our communities and our environment. ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS (EMF) Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF) associated with electric power lines are similar to the low level electric and magnetic fields that we are exposed to in our daily lives. EMF is generated from common items like hair dryers, computer monitors, toasters – and power lines. Because the use of electricity is so common in our lives, researchers have been studying exposure to EMF since the 1970s.
