VIZADA September 17, 2008 Ms. Marlene H. Dortch Secretary Federal Communications Commission Washington, DC 20554 Re: Withdrawal of Waiver Request — File No. SES—MOD—20070523—00709 Dear Ms. Dortch: Applicant Vizada, Inc.‘ (Vizada) hereby withdraws its pending request for a temporary waiver of subsection 25.221 (c)(1) of the Commission‘s Rules. In the above—referenced modification application, Vizada requested partial temporary waivers of three subsections of the ESV rules: §§ 25.221 (a)(4), 25.221 (c)(1) and 25.221 (f). Subsection 25.221 (c)(1) requires ESV operators to record the location of each vessel carrying C— band ESV equipment at intervals no greater than every twenty minutes. Vizada‘s long term solution for this requirement will pull position information directly from the ESV terminal‘s antenna control unit (ACU). While Vizada has been deploying this solution, Inmarsat—C terminals on the vessels are being used to report position information. Therefore, Vizada believes that it is in compliance with this requirement and is withdrawing the request for a waiver of this subsection. Vizada is continuing its activities to comply with subsections 25.221 (a)(4) and 25.221 (f). Vizada plans to be capable of full compliance with these rules by the end of 2008 or earlier if possible. Any questions regarding this matter should be directed to James G. Lovelace at 301—838—7909. Respectfully submitted, Q%w.glb\__ Robert W.
