                          **1614 ORDER, AUTHORIZATION AND CERTIFICATE

 By the Chief, International Facilities Division:
 1. Upon consideration of the above—captioned uncontested application, filed pursuant to Section 214
 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIEDthat the present and
 future public convenience and necessity require the provision of INTELSAT Business Service (IBS),
 DataNet Service, International Television Service and switched voice service between the U.S. and
Somalia by TeleData International, Inc. (TDI).
2. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that application File No. I—T—C—93—274 IS GRANTED, and TDI is
authorized to:
a. lease from Comsat and operate ten (10) 64—kbps satellite circuits between the Washington
International Teleport (WIT) earth station and an appropriate INTELSAT satellite over the Atlantic
Ocean Region (AOR), connecting with similar circuits between the satellite and an earth station in
Somalia, furnished by TDI‘s correspondent in Somalia; [FN1]
b. lease and operate 10 64—kbps circuits in the WIT earth station;
c. lease and operate necessary domestic connecting facilities; and
d. use the facilities in a, b and c above to provide international switched voice, private line services,
IBS, Datanet Service, and International Television Service between the U.S. and Somalia.
3. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the authority granted herein for TDI to establish channels of
communication between a WIT earth station and INTELSAT satellites does not dispense with the
requirement that any earth station TDI may use in the future for this service shall be authorized
under Title III of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, to communicate with those satellites.
4. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that no material changes inconsistent with this or any other relevant
Commission order shall be made before final execution of an operating agreement between TDI and
its correspondent, and a copy of the agreement shall befiled with the Commission within 30 days of
its execution.
5. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that our authorization of TDI to provide private lines is limited to the
provision of such private lines only between the United States and Somalia——that is, private lines
which originate in the United States and terminate in Somalia or which originate in Somalia and
terminate in the United States. In addition, TDI may not——and TDI‘s tariff must state that TDI‘s
customers may not——connect private lines provided over these facilities to the public switched network
at either the U.S. or foreign end, or both, for the provision of international switched services, unless
authorized to do so by the Commission upon a finding that the foreign administration affords resale
opportunities equivalent to those available under U.S. law, in accordance with Regulation of
International Accounting Rates, Phase II, First Report and Order, 7 FCCRed 559 (1991), and Order on
Reconsideration and Third Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 7Z FCCRed 7927 (1992), petition for
reconsideration pending.
*2 6. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that neither TDI nor any persons or companies directly or indirectly
controlling or controlled by TDI, or under direct or indirect common control with it, shall acquire or
enjoy any right, for the purposes of handling or interchanging traffic to or from the United States, its
territories or possessions, which is denied to any other United States carrier by reason of any
concession, contract, understanding, or working arrangement to which TDI or any persons or
companies controlling or controlled by TDI are parties.
