In South Dakota, 'electromagnetic fields' (EMF) from cell towers near a residential property should be:

BDisclosed as a potential concern if there is evidence that EMF levels affect property value in the market✓ Correct

DOnly disclosed if the buyer specifically asks about cell towers
Explanation
Whether EMF from cell towers affects property value is a market-dependent question. If there is evidence that buyers in the local market consider cell tower proximity to be a concern affecting value, this may be a material fact. The agent's duty is to disclose known material facts that affect value.
