Cablevision of Litchfield, Inc. FCC Form 312 Notification of Pro Forma Assignment of Authorization Description of Transaction and Public Interest Statement Cablevision of Litchfield, Inc. (“Applicant”) hereby notifies the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) of the pro forma assignment of one receive-only satellite earth station (call sign E861035) referenced in the attached application held by Cablevision of Connecticut LP (“Licensee”). The Licensee was dissolved on July 20, 2011, and its assets were merged with the Applicant on that date. The ownership of the Assignee is identical to the ownership of the Licensee, and there has been no change in the management or operations of the Licensee in connection with the transaction. The Licensee was, and the Applicant is, a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Cablevision Systems Corporation (“Cablevision”). The assignment of the Licensee therefore requires only pro forma approval.1/ This pro forma assignment is in the public interest because it will ensure that the Applicant will be able to continue to use the licensed facilities in support of critical operational functions for delivery of quality service and innovative products to its customers. 1/ The FCC generally relies on Part 63 of its rules to determine how applications for, and notifications of, transfers and assignments should be treated. See Skyport Global Communications, Inc., Apparent Liability for Forfeiture, 24 FCC Rcd 3714 (2009). Pursuant to section 63.24(d), pro forma assignments include “[a]ssignment from a corporation to a corporation owned or controlled by the assignor stockholders without substantial change in their interests.” 47 C.F.R. § 62.24(d) (note 2).
