[TowerTalk] Cellular Antennas on Building Roofs

There's a six or seven story office building not too far from here that has 
what appear to be cellular system antennas mounted directly on the rooftop 
(no tower). Looks like they are maybe 12-15 feet above where workers on the 
top floor of the building would spend most of their day. Given all the 
recent emphasis on RF safety it would seem this is coming a bit close for 
comfort, particularly at that frequency. Not knowing a lot about this type 
of antenna or service personally, can anyone out there shed light on how 
this installation might be considered acceptable?
