CoYera~c of Crbanized Areas

The communities of t'vlissouri City-IX and Mo~s Bluff-LA are contained within the urbanized areas of -TX and Lake Charles-LA, respectively. Included herein as Figure 7 are maps showing the Houston and Lake Charles urbanized areas with depictions of the 70 dBu coverage of the subject station licensed facility and the proposed allotment facility.

The Houston 1990 Census urbanized area includes an area of approximately 3,150 sq. kIn. The proposed Missouri City 70 dEu allotment contour would encompass approximately 859 sq. km (27.3%) of the urbanized area. The licensed KOVA(FM) facility serves an estimated 1] 9 sq. km (3.8%) ofthe urbanized area.

The Lake Charles 1990 Census urbanized area consists of an area of approximately 242 sq. km. The proposed Moss Bluff 70 dBu allotment contour would encompass approximately 55 sq. km (22.7%) of the urbanized area. The licensed KZWA(FM) facility serves approximately 179 sq. km (74.0%) of the urbanized area.

Gain and Loss Areas

The predicted gain and loss areas are illustrated in Figure 8. The table below is a summary of the population and area of the gain and loss areas. The population figures are based on 1990 Census block data. dll Treil, Lundin & Rackley, Inc.

Other Aural Services to GainILoss Areas

An analysis was conducted of other fuUtime aural services. Figures 9 and 10 are maps depicting the oilier fulltime aural services available in the gainlloss areas. Figure 11 is a tabulation of all station1- considered in the other services study. ~ The count of other aural services available to an area is indicated with numbers on the maps. Areas with significantly greater tbe 5 services available are generally not noted except in a few locations for reference. As an example of how the results are to be interpreted: if the number lOis shown in an area, then there are a count of lO other fulltime aural services
