 STREAMLINED  INTERNATIONAL  APPLICATIONS  ACCEPTED  FOR  FILING 

 Unless  otherwise  specified,  the  following  procedures  apply  to  the  applications  listed  below: 
 The  international  Section  214  applications  listed  below  have  been  found,  upon  initial  review,  to  be  acceptable  for  filing  and  subject  to  the  streamlined  processing  procedures  set  forth  in  Section  63.12  of  the  Commission's  rules,  47  C.  F.  R.   
 63.12.  These  applications  are  for  authority  under  Section  214  of  the  Communications  Act,  47  U.  S.  C.    214,  (a)  to  transfer  control  of  an  authorized  carrier  or  to  assign  a  carrier's  existing  authorization;  and/  or  (b)  to  become  a  facilities-  based 
 international  common  carrier;  and/  or  (c)  to  become  a  resale-  based  international  common  carrier. 
 Pursuant  to  Section  63.12  of  the  rules,  these  Section  214  applications  will  be  granted  14  days  after  the  date  of  this  public  notice  (see  47  C.  F.  R.    1.4  regarding  computation  of  time),  and  the  applicant  may  commence  operations  on  the  15th  day, 
 unless  the  Commission  has  informed  the  applicant  in  writing,  within  14  days  after  the  date  of  this  public  notice,  that  the  application,  on  further  examination,  has  been  deemed  ineligible  for  streamlined  processing. 

 Communications  between  outside  parties  and  Commission  staff  concerning  these  applications  are  permitted  subject  to  the  Commission's  rules  for  "permit-  but-  disclose  proceedings."  See  47  C.  F.  R.    1.1206.  An  application  can  be  removed 
 from  streamlined  processing  only  in  the  sound  discretion  of  Commission  staff.  The  filing  of  comments  or  a  petition  to  deny  will  not  necessarily  result  in  an  application  being  deemed  ineligible  for  streamlined  processing. 

 The  petitions  for  declaratory  ruling  listed  below  are  (1)  for  authority  under  Section  310(  b)(  4)  of  the  Communications  Act,  47  U.  S.  C.    310(  b)(  4),  to  exceed  the  25  percent  foreign  ownership  benchmark  applicable  to  common  carrier  radio  licensees,

 effective  the  next  day,  unless  the  application  is  formally  opposed  or  the  Commission  has  informed  the  applicant  in  writing,  within  14  days  of  the  date  of  this  public  notice,  that  the  application,  on  further  examination,  has  been  deemed 
 ineligible  for  streamlined  processing.  For  this  purpose,  a  formal  opposition  shall  be  sufficient  only  if  it  is  received  by  the  Commission  and  by  the  applicant  within  14  days  of  the  date  of  this  public  notice  and  its  caption  and  text  make  it 
 unmistakably  clear  that  it  is  intended  to  be  a  formal  opposition. 
 Copies  of  all  applications  listed  here  are  available  for  public  inspection  in  the  FCC  Office  of  Public  Affairs  Reference  and  Information  Center,  located  in  room  CY-  A257  at  the  Portals  2  building,  445  12th  Street  SW,  Washington  DC  20554.  The
