Request for Extension of Special Temporary Authority On September 4, 2013, the International Bureau granted the request filed by O3b Limited (“O3b”) for special temporary authority (“STA”) 1 to operate its earth station located in Bristow, Virginia (the “Virginia Earth Station”) in accordance with the parameters specified in its underlying application for permanent authority. 2 The STA has a term through October 26, 2013. Pursuant to Section 25.120 of the Commission’s rules, 3 O3b hereby requests an extension of its STA covering the 30-day period between October 26, 2013, and November 25, 2013. O3b’s extension request is supported by good cause. An extension will enable O3b to continue its monitoring so that it may identify and resolve space station and system anomalies following the launch of the first four space stations in its constellation. By granting O3b’s initial STA request, the Bureau already has found that facilitating these activities is in the public interest. Accordingly, and for good cause shown, O3b respectfully requests that its STA extension request be granted. 1 FCC File No. SES-STA-20130617-00497. 2 FCC File No. SES-LIC-20130618-00516, Call Sign E130107. 3 47 C.F.R. § 25.120.
