§ 10.450   Geographic targeting.

   This section establishes minimum requirements for the geographic targeting
   of Alert Messages. A Participating CMS Provider will determine which of its
   network facilities, elements, and locations will be used to geographically
   target Alert Messages. A Participating CMS Provider must transmit any Alert
   Message that is specified by a geocode, circle, or polygon to an area not
   larger than the provider's approximation of coverage for the Counties or
   County Equivalents with which that geocode, circle, or polygon intersects.
   If, however, the propagation area of a provider's transmission site exceeds
   a single County or County Equivalent, a Participating CMS Provider may
   transmit an Alert Message to an area not exceeding the propagation area.
