Attachment 1 STA Extension Application File No. SES—AMD—20130718—00645 File No. SES—STA—20130826—00765 As part of a major plan to upgrade the facilities and equipment used by NBCUniversal Media, LLC ("NBCU") in the Los Angeles area, NBCU is building a new broadcast center to replace its current Burbank facilities. The new facility is being constructed to house NBC Network and News operations, along with KNBC, NBC‘s Los Angeles owned station, and KVEA, Telemundo‘s Los Angeles owned station, and will include newsroom facilities, production studios and a content distribution center. To realize the maximum benefit from the new facilities, NBCU is in the process of acquiring new equipment, and NBC Telemundo License LLC (the "Licensee") has recently filed a number of applications for new earth station authorizations. One of these applications, SES—AMD—20130718—00645, Call Sign E130111, is for a Transmit Receive Earth Station for the NBC and Telemundo Networks. We requested Special Temporary Authority ("STA") in order to perform necessary equipment testing and debugging operations while that application is pending (File No. SES—STA—20130826—00765). The STA request was granted on September 9, 2013 for a period ending on October 10, 2013. Due to the shutdown of the federal government on October 1, 2013, and resulting lack of access to the Federal Communication Commission‘s website, we were unable to file an for extension of the STA. Accordingly, we are filing this extension request on the first day on which the FCC‘s website became available after the government reopened. We hereby request that the STA be extended nunc pro tunc to October 10, 2013. Our present location must be cleared of equipment before the end of 2013, necessitating that the decommissioning process of currently active equipment begin no later than November 1, 2013. Grant of this STA extension request would allow sufficient time to verify uplink performance and to make any necessary adjustments before going live from the new facility on November 1. The technical showings accompanying the pending application demonstrate that operation of the new equipment does not cause interference to other licensed users. This equipment will play a key role in accomplishing NBCU‘s objectives to more effectively serve its viewers by ensuring the timely delivery of the news, information and public affairs programming on which they rely. For these reasons, grant of the requested STA extension would serve the public interest.
