Communications Commission’s (“Commission”) rules. 1 In the above-referenced proceeding,

Nyxcomm Corp. (“Nyxcomm”), seeks an authorization for global or limited global resale service

under Section 214 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 2 and section 63.18(e)(2) of

the Commission’s rules. 3 Through this Petition, DOJ advises the Commission that it has no

objection to the Commission approving the authority sought in the above-referenced proceeding,

provided that the Commission conditions its approval on the assurance of Nyxcomm to abide by

the commitments and undertakings set forth in the Letter of Agreement (“Agreement”) dated

October 30, 2017, a copy of which is attached hereto.

        The Commission has long recognized that law enforcement, national security, and public

safety concerns are part of its public interest analysis, and has accorded deference to the views of

other U.S. government agencies with expertise in those areas. 4
