This radiation hazard study describes the R.F. radiation environment of the
permanent fixed Ku-band uplink operated by Criswell College.
This fixed earth station uplink is located at a lattitude of 32d - 45m - 38s North
& a longitude of 97d - 06m - 28s West, in Arlington, TX.

This study is done to comply with the requirements of Section 1.1307(b) of
the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. All calculations
conform to the proceedures presented in OET Bulletin No. 65 for aperature
antennas.

Conclusions

The power densities in the Near Field, Far Field, Transition Zone, at the
Surface of the Reflector, and between the Reflector and the Ground are all
below the allowable limit. Nowhere do they exceed the level of 5 mw/cm2
as listed in OET Bulletin No. 65. Thus, this transmit earth terminal meets
FCC requirements for human exposure to radio frequency energy.

                                 Transmit/Receive


In regard to Section 1.1307(a) of the Commission's rules:

This site is not in a designated wilderness area or wildlife preserve; it does not
threaten endangered species or critical habitats; nor does it affect sites,
structures, or habitats which are significant in American history, architecture,
archeology, engineering or culture that are listed or are eligible for listing in the
National Registry of Historic Places; it does not affect Indian religious sites or
flood plains; nor does it cause significant change in wetland fill, deforestation, or
water diversion.


In regard to section 1.1307(b) of the Commission's rules:

We have prepared the calculations of radio frequency radiation for this
transmitter and antenna combination, under the operating conditions specified in
this application, with these results:

Conclusions: Based on the study, which is summarized above, we conclude that
in the regions of concern, the radiation level complies with the guidance; the level
is less than 5 milliwatts per square centimeter.

Accordingly, this action does not have a significant environmental impact as
described in the Commission's rules and does not require the preparation of an
environmental assessment.

                         FAA INFORMATION


       The proposed 2.4 meter Ku band R/T antenna, which is the subject
of this application, is a fixed earth station that will be operated from the
ground. The maximum height of this antenna will be about 5 meters
above the ground. Therefore since the proposed antenna does not extend
more than 6 meters above the ground, notice to the FAA is not required
pursuant to Section 17.4 of the Commission's rules.
