An extension will enable O3b to continue to communicate with O3b‘s system and provide support and redundancy for the telemetry, tracking and command ("TT&C") and data feed functions while its license application is pending. 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, 03b respectfully requests that its STA extension request be granted. 1 ECC File No. SES—STA—20141022—00810. _ 2 FCC File No. SES—LIC—20141022—00809, Call Sign E140107. 3 47 C.E.R. § 25.120.
