The aim of this paper is to demonstrate whether applicable regulations unambiguously specify the role of public administration authorities in terms of protection against electromagnetic radiation in the environment. The paper employs the method of interpretation of norms of applicable law within which normative material of the discussed issue is analysed and selected opinions of the legal thought and judicial decisions are referred to. The paper also refers to the assessment of electromagnetic radiation in the environment in the West Pomeranian Voivodship in 2018 made on the basis of research carried out according to the State Environmental Monitoring Programme for 2016–2020, which in turn is grounded in the regulation of Article 2(1)(2) of the act of Inspection of Environmental Protection. The measurements were made in accordance with a relevant regulation and did not show excess levels of electronic fields in the environment. However, it needs to be remembered that the dynamic development of the telecommunication industry will result in enhanced monitoring and checks of the levels of these fields especially in publically available places.
