requests au!    ty, [         to Section 214 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,
47 U.S.C. S     m§            2), and Section 63.18 of the Commissions Rules, 47 C.F.R. §63.18, to

        This    dicat         fies the requirements for streamlinedprocessing set forth in Section

I.      Intr    ctior
        NMCLP is a limited partnership that has been licensed by the FCC to provide analog and
digital CMRS wireless service in the Missouri 1 — Atchison RSA.‘ Grant of this application will
accord NMCLP permanent authorization to provide: (i) international call completion capability from
its subscribers wireless phones; and (ii) switched international services to those customers who roam

in foreign markets where NMCLP has obtained or will obtain a roaming agreement with an
authorized U.S. international common carrier. NMCLP also requests authority to provide, on a
resale basis, international switched services between the U.S. and various countries throughout the


        Y NMCLP holds the license for Station KNKN816 (CMA395B3).


world by reselling the services of other authorized U.S. international common carriers. NMCLP
currently holds no other Section 214 Authority and is filing the instant application during the safe
harbor period arnounced by the International Bureau.*

        In order to provide the international services described herein, NMCLP has obtained required
capacity through contract or tariffs filed with the Commission of one or more non—affiliated,
facilities—based carriers authorized to provide general and international switched voice and data
services. Thus, NMCLP will continue to compete with other operators that already provide
international switched services by reselling similar services over existing facilities. Granting
NMCLP the authorization requested herein will permit NMCLP to compete in the marketplace for
international services and thus promote the public interest goals of the Telecommunications Act of
1996.

        By granting this application, the Commission will serve the public interest, convenience, and
necessity by promoting competition in the international services market. Competition will benefit
U.S. consumers by increasing service options and exerting downward pressure on prices. Thus, the
public interest will be served by the grant of Section 214 authority to NMCLP .

        NMCLP hereby submits the information required under Section 63.18 of the Commission‘s
