PETITION FOR SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY

The system for which we are requesting modification is an earth station on the oil platform
Hoover—Diana located in the Gulf of Mexico

The purpose of this replacement system is to provide safe and effective communications for the
personnel working on and around the platform, as well as on passing ships. Recently, the current
equipment has been experiencing maintenance problems caused by inadequate filtering, and the
number of interference incidents has greatly escalated.

There are no cellular or other alternate means of communications in this remote region 160 miles
south of Galveston, TX in the Gulf of Mexico. Due to the critical need to ensure the safety of
workers in this sensitive area, the replacement equipment is required in a timely manner.

We respectfully ask that this petition will be considered, and that we may receive the grant of
temporary authority to operate the replacement system.
