Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
The frequencies sought in television channel 20, which are during the STA period unused in the area around MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ (except as indicated in the narrative exhibit attached), and the A Block of the Lower 700 MHz channels (which are used by permission of Verizon Wireless, the licensee on that area, per the written authorization attached) are necessary in order to conduct two-way radio communications for logistical, security, public safety and operational purposes before, during and shortly after the Super Bowl scheduled for February 2, 2014. There are insufficient Part 90 and 74 channels available for use during this period, and the volume of voice, telemetry and IFB channels necessitates the availability of additional channels for this large scale event.
