Pursuant to Section 63.12 of the rules, these Section 214 applications will be granted 14 days after the date of this public notice (see 47 C.F.R. § 1.4 regarding computation of time), and the applicant may commence operations on the 15th day, unless the Commission has informed the applicant in writing, within 14 days after the date of this public notice, that the application, on further examination, has been deemed ineligible for streamlined processing. Communications between outside parties and Commission staff concerning these applications are permitted subject to the Commission's rules for "permit-but-disclose proceedings." See 47 C.F.R. § 1.1206. An application can be removed from streamlined processing only in the sound discretion of Commission staff. The filing of comments or a petition to deny will not necessarily result in an application being deemed ineligible for streamlined processing.

The following two entities hold 10 percent or greater interest in DT: Federal Republic of Germany, governmental entity in Germany, holds 14.62% direct interest, and Kreditanstalt fur Wiederaufbau, a bank controlled by the German government, holds 16.63% direct interest. No other individual or entity holds 10 percent or greater interest in DT.

Iowa Wireless will relinquish its existing authority to serve the U.S.-Montenegro route upon consummation of the proposed transaction.
