RE:     L—3 Mission Integration Division Application FORM 442 Confidentiality Request
        pursuant to a Government Contract (0570—EX—PL—2014) for Near Vertical Direction
        Finder (NVDF) Calibration System

Gentlemen:

L—3 Communications Integrated Systems, L.P., acting through its Mission Integration Division (L—3
MID) hereby requests that the documents being submitted herewith in connection with its Form 442
application for the NVDF Calibration System be held in confidence and not made available for
public inspection or review pursuant to Sections 0.457 and 0.459 of the Commission‘s rules. Under
47 C.F.R. §§ 0.457 and 0.459 L—3 MID respectfully requests that only the redacted portions of the
documents attached" to this request letter be treated as confidential and be withheld from public
inspection.

This Form 442 application is a necessary action under a Government contract for fulfillment of
obligations as they relate to Army aircraft which details the work to be performed thereunder.
Certain technical aspects of the information contained in this application are currently subject to
strict disclosure restrictions under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations. Confidential
treatment of this documentis also appropriate under Exemption 4 of the Freedom of Information
Act ("FOIA"), which applies to information constituting "trade secrets and commercial or financial
information" that "would not customarily be released to the public." See 5 U.S.C.§ 552(b)(4); 47
C.F.R. § 0.457(d).



* Redacted versions ofthe attached documents, appropriate for public disclosure, are being filed along with the Form
442 application.


5 September 2014                      L—3 MID Confidentiality Request                                Page 2
                                 FORM 442 Application 0570—EX—PL—2014


Further in support of this request, L—3 MID provides the following information, as required under
Section 0.459(b) of the Commission‘s Rules —

1. Specific Information For Which Confidential Treatment Is Sought —§ 0.459(b)(1):
L3 MID requests confidential treatment of the equipment comprising the Near Vertical Direction
Finder (NVDF) Calibration System, interconnection of the equipment and the bands of operation of
the system as disclosed in the application, information relating to the contract and specifically, the
trade secret system diagrams (attachment NVDF Cal System Diagrams.pdf) attached to the
application.

2. Circumstances Giving Rise To The Submission — § 0.459(b)(2):
L—3 MID‘s NVDF Calibration System contains a radio transmitter device that is to be used in an
experimental environment. As such, L—3 MID‘s application to the Commission is required pursuant
to 47 C.F.R. § 5.53(a) that states "[nlo radio transmitter shall be operated in the Experimental Radio
Service except under and in accordance with a proper station authorization granted by the
Commission.

3. Degree To Which The Information Is Commercial Or Financial, Or Contains A
Trade Secret Or Is Privileged — § 0.459(b)(3):
The application and related exhibits identify specifics of L—3 MID‘s proprietary calibration
technique of a direction finding system and associated design characteristics as well as operational
details. In addition, a person who understands the science can develop insight into the operation
and function of the Near Vertical Direction Finder System itself. Both yield proprietary and
confidential information about technologies important to L—3 MID‘s competitive position and
contractual obligations to the United States Government. Disclosure of this information, "which
would customarily be guarded from competitors,"" would not only be competitively harmful but
could adversely impact possible future proposals and negotiations on Government and commercial
contracts. Accordingly, public disclosure of the confidential terms of these documents could
materially harm L—3 MID.

4. Degree To Which The Information Concerns A Service That Is Subject To Competition —
§ 0.459(b)(4):
As the Commission is aware, there is substantial competition in the radio transmission industry.
Disclosure of the frequencies and methodology for the calibration technology would create great
competitive harm to L—3 MID as such calibration systems as the NVDF are vital L—3 MID‘s
business.

5. How Disclosure Of The Information Could Result In Substantial Competitive Harm —
§ 0.459(b)(5):
Information about both the methodology and frequencies of the NVDF Calibration System could be
misused by potential competitors to gain commercially exploitable knowledge of L—3 MID‘s trade
secret technical information allowing them to reap unfair advantages in pursuing similar technical
development of competing systems. A substantial amount of L—3 MID‘s core business is through
contracts to the U. S. Government and use similar technologies specific to military applications.

* James A. Kay, Jr., 17 FCC Red 1834 (2002) (withholding such information from public inspection).


5 September 2014                  L—3 MID Confidentiality Request                           Page 3
                             FORM 442 Application 0570—EX—PL—2014

Disclosure of confidential, technical information related to core system technologies can adversely
affect L—3 MID‘s future business and may have an adverse effect from a defense perspective.
Release of the details of the information we are requesting redaction would allow others to benefit
from plans, technical insight into system design and technological information and capabilities that
L—3 MID has spent considerable time and money developing.

6. Measures Taken By L—3 MID To Prevent Unauthorized Disclosure —§ 0.459(b)(6):
L—3 MID‘s NVDF Calibration System is trade secret information. L—3 MID rigorously protects its
trade secret information from disclosure. Pursuant to L—3 MID‘s Corporate Policy 801, trade secret
information is available only to persons on a need—to—know basis. As standard procedure, the
information contained in the application is communicated within L—3 MID‘s corporate
communication networks. When necessary to provide the information to outside organizations, the
information is exchanged using trusted or otherwise secure communication resources and only after
execution of L—3 MID‘s standard non—disclosure agreement that has strict confidentiality
obligations and disclosure limitations. Any disclosure not compelled by law requires prior written
consent of L—3 MID.

7. The Information Submitted Is Not Available To The Public and Has Not Previously Been
Disclosed To Third Parties, Except For Appropriately Limited Circumstances— § 0.459(b)(7):
No part of the Government contract with L—3 MID has been publicly disclosed. Disclosure has
been limited to those with "a need to know" basis in accordance with L—3 MID‘s Corporate Policy.
801, Security and Information Asset Protection. Those with access to the information have agreed
in writing to be bound by or are otherwise subject to confidentiality obligations consistent with L—3
MID‘s policy. The information is not made available to the public or third parties who do not have
a need to know. Third parties with a need to know have signed non—disclosure agreements with L—3
MID.

8. Period During Which The Submitted Material Should Not Be Available For Public Disclosure
— § 0.459(b)(8):

L—3 MID respectfully requests that the confidential information attached hereto be kept confidential
and permanently withheld from public disclosure. Alternatively, if a permanent withhold is not
approved, then L—3 MID requests confidentiality for a period of five years from the date of this
filing. L—3 MID‘s standard non—disclosure terms require protection of all proprietary information
for a period of five years, and return or destruction confirmation of such confidential proprietary
information upon request. Accordingly, L—3 MID requests that the Commission maintain NVDF
Calibration System confidential treatment of the information requested to be withheld permanently,
or for five years, or until L—3 MID notifies the Commission that confidential treatmentis no longer
required.

9. Other Information Supporting Request For Confidential Treatment — § 0.459(b)(9):
The Commission has long recognized that certain contracts may contain competitively sensitive
information. The Commission has therefore adhered to a policy of declining to disclose such
contracts "on the mere chance" that such disclosure might be helpful to a third party in some
fashion, and has typically required a showing prior to disclosure. L—3 MID requests such treatment


5 September 2014                  L—3 MID Confidentiality Request                           Page 4
                              FORM 442 Application 0570—EX—PL—2014

for this application because in this case it has more than a mere chance of harm to L—3 MID is such
disclosure is made.

For all of the foregoing reasons, L—3 MID respectfully requests that the redacted portions of the
documents attached to this letter for the NVDR Calibration System Form 442 application be
granted confidential status by the Commission and be withheld from public inspection. If
confidential treatment of the redacted portions of the attached documents is not granted, please
notify the undersigned immediately of such denial and return all copies of the NVDF Calibration
System block diagram two pages that are submitted with the application.

L—3 MID further requests that, in the event that disclosure of the unredacted copies of these
documents is ultimately found necessary, any party ultimately examining such documents be
required to enter into an appropriate protective order.

Respectfully submitted,




Theresa M ("Teri") Taylor
Assistant General Counsel

QUESTION 4: STATEMENT REGARDING GOVERNMENT CONTRACT




 As part ofthe fulfillment of this contract, L3 Communications at Majors Field in Greenville,
Texas is tasked with providing resources to be used during the calibration of a Near Vertical
Direction Finder (NVDP) sys@grerigioaaa
—Tlle common methodology used for the calibration of DF systems
is to transmit knownsignals from a known point to the system being calibrated. The responses of
the DF system to these known signals are used to correct biases and other errors in the
measurement algorithm.

The experimental system described in this application comprises the Near Vertical Direction
Finder Calibration System. This system generates the signals used for calibration of the NVDF
System. The calibration will be accomplished at Majors field, Greenville, Texas
