SCL-MOD-20180410-00007 P Office des postes et Telecommunications de Polynesie francaise Modification Grant of Authority Date of Action: 04/11/2018 Request of Office des Postes et Telecommunications de Polynesie Francaise (OPT) to modify the condition placed on the cable landing license for the Honotua Cable System, SCL-LIC-20081008-00017. Grant of the license was conditioned on OPT abiding by the commitments and undertakings contained in its December 3, 2010 National Security Agreement (NSA) with the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Justice. See SCL-LIC-20081008-00017, Actions Taken Under Cable Landing License Act, Public Notice, Report No. SCL-00112, DA 10-2310, 25 FCC Rcd 17049, 17051 (IB 2010). Effective March 27, 2018, OPT executed Amendment No. 1 to the NSA in order to update certain substantive terms of that agreement. OPT therefore requests that the Commission amend the cable landing license to require compliance with the NSA as amended by Amendment No. 1. Accordingly, we hereby modify the cable landing license for the Honotua Cable System, SCL-LIC-20081008-00017, to condition it on compliance by Office des Postes et Telecommunications de Polynesie Francaise with the commitments and undertakings contained in its December 3, 2010 National Security Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 1. A failure to comply and/or remain in compliance with any of these commitments and undertakings shall constitute a failure to meet a condition of the license and thus grounds for declaring the license terminated without further action on the part of the Commission. Failure to meet a condition of the authorization may also result in monetary sanctions or other enforcement action by the Commission. A copy of the NSA and Amendment No. 1 is publicly available and may be viewed on the FCC web-site through the International Bureau Filing System (IBFS) by searching for SCL-MOD-20180410-00007 and accessing "Attachment Menu" from the Document Viewing area.
