These applications are for authority under Section 214 of the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. § 214, (a) to transfer control of an authorized carrier or to assign a carrier's existing authorization; and/or (b) to become a facilities-based international common carrier; and/or (c) to become a resale-based international common carrier. 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 petitions for declaratory ruling listed below are for authority under Section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. § 310(b)(4), to exceed the 25 percent foreign ownership benchmark applicable to common carrier radio licensees. The requested rulings will be granted 14 days after the date of this public notice, effective the next day, unless the application is formally opposed or the Commission has informed the applicant in writing, within 14 days of the date of this public notice, that the application, on further examination, has been deemed ineligible for streamlined processing. For this purpose, a formal opposition shall be sufficient only if it is received by the Commission and by the applicant within 14 days of the date of this public notice and its caption and text make it unmistakably clear that it is intended to be a formal opposition. Copies of all applications listed here are available for public inspection in the FCC Office of Public Affairs Reference and Information Center, located in room CY-A257 at the Portals 2 building, 445 12th Street SW, Washington DC 20554.

Application for consent to transfer control of international section 214 authorization, ITC-214-19980224-00140 (Old File No. ITC-98-170), held by USCarrier Telecom, LLC (USC), from USCarrier Telecom Holdings, LLC (USCTH) to American Fiber Systems, Inc. (AFS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Fiber Systems Holding Corporation (AFS Holding). Pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, AFS will acquire 55% of the outstanding shares of USCTH. Upon closing, AFS will acquire direct majority control of USCTH and thus indirect control of USC. AFS will not hold day-to-day control of USCTH or indirect control of USC, because of governance and voting agreements contained within the governing documents of USCTH. However, certain major decisions that require supermajority approval of the members will be subject to AFS approval among other things. The following entities hold 10 percent or greater equity and voting interests in AFS Holding: Sierra Ventures (41%); North Atlantic Venture Fund III (NAVF) (13%); and, Lucent Venture Partners II, LLC (12%). Lucent Venture Partners, Inc. is ultimately 100% owned by Alcatel, a publicly held French company. NAVF is 65% owned by the US Small Business Administration. No other individual or entity holds 10 percent or greater, direct or indirect, equity or voting interest in AFS Holding.
