                          Request for Special Temporary Authority

       BellSouth Long Distance, Inc. (“BSLD”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of AT&T

Inc. (“AT&T”), hereby requests Special Temporary Authority (“STA”) to assign its interest in

the MAYA-1 submarine cable to Sprint Communications Company LP (“Sprint”), SCL-LIC-

19990325-00006. AT&T recently learned that BSLD transferred its interest in the MAYA-1

cable system to Sprint in August 2006 without obtaining Commission authority. BSLD no

longer provides any service pursuant to that authorization and no longer holds any interest in the

MAYA-1 cable system. It is requesting this STA to assign its interest in the MAYA-1 cable

landing license in order to regularize the current status of the cable license pending Commission

action on applications to assign the cable landing license and the associated international Section

214 authorization, ITC-214-19990325-00153,1 to Sprint.2

                                                     Respectfully Submitted,

                                                     /s/   Mary Jo Peed

                                                     Mary Jo Peed
                                                     VP, General Counsel, and Secretary
                                                     675 W. Peachtree St. NW
                                                     Room 4319
                                                     Atlanta, GA 30375
                                                     Telephone Number: (404) 335-0705




1
  While this authorization is currently listed in IBFS as held by Tricom USA, Inc., BSLD is a co-
licensee. A notification of the assignment to BSLD of an interest in this authorization was filed
in April of 2006. See IBFS File No. ITC-ASG-20060412-00246 (granted April 19, 2006).

  This STA application specifically seeks authority to assign the submarine cable landing license
associated with the MAYA-1 submarine cable. A separate STA application is being filed to
cease providing service under the international Section 214 authorization and to assign that
authorization to Sprint.
