§ 25.119 Assignment or transfer of control of station authorization.
(a) You must file an application for Commission authorization before you can transfer, assign, dispose of (voluntarily or involuntarily, directly or indirectly, or by transfer of control of any corporation or any other entity) your construction permit or station license, or accompanying rights, except as provided in paragraph (h) of this section. The Commission will grant your application only if it finds that doing so will serve the public interest, convenience, and necessity.
(b) For purposes of this section, transfers of control requiring Commission approval shall include any and all transactions that:
(1) Change the party controlling the affairs of the licensee, or
(2) Effect any change in a controlling interest in the ownership of the licensee, including changes in legal or equitable ownership.
(c)Assignment of license. You must submit an FCC Form 312, Main Form and Schedule A to voluntarily assign (e.g., as by contract or other agreement) or involuntarily assign (e.g., as by death, bankruptcy, or legal disability) your station authorization. You must file these forms electronically through IBFS.
(d)Transfer of control of corporation holding license. If you want to transfer control of a corporation, which holds one or more licenses voluntarily or involuntarily (de jure or de facto), you must submit an FCC Form 312, Main Form and Schedule A. You must file these forms electronically through IBFS. For involuntary transfers, you must file your application within 10 days of the event causing the transfer of control. You can also use FCC Form 312, Main Form and Schedule A for non-substantial (pro forma) transfers of control.
(e) Whenever a group of station licenses in the same radio service for the same class of facility licensed to the same entity is to be assigned or transferred to a single assignee or transferee, a single application may be filed to cover the entire group, if the application identifies in an exhibit each station by call sign, station location and expiration date of license.
(f) Assignments and transfers of control shall be completed within 180 days from the date of authorization. Within 30 days of consummation, the Commission shall be notified by letter of the date of consummation and the file numbers of the applications involved in the transaction.
(g) The Commission retains discretion in reviewing assignments and transfers of control of space station licenses to determine whether the initial license was obtained in good faith with the intent to construct a satellite system.
(h)Pro forma transactions involving a telecommunications carrier. You do not need prior Commission approval for a non-substantial (pro forma) transfer of control or assignment of license involving a telecommunications carrier, as defined in 47 U.S.C. 153(51). However, the pro forma transferee or assignee must file a notification with the Commission no later than 30 days after the transfer or assignment is completed. The notification must be filed on FCC Form 312, Main Form and Schedule A and must contain a certification that the transfer of control or assignment was pro forma and that, together with all previous pro forma transactions, it did not result in a change in the actual controlling party.
(i)Pro forma transactions not involving a telecommunications carrier. A complete application for Commission approval of a non-substantial (pro forma) transfer of control or assignment of license not involving a telecommunications carrier, as defined in 47 U.S.C. 153(51), will be deemed granted one business day after filing, provided that:
(1) Approval does not require a waiver of, or a declaratory ruling pertaining to, any applicable Commission rule; and
(2) The application includes a certification that the proposed transfer of control or assignment is pro forma and that, together with all previous pro forma transactions, it would not result in a change in the actual controlling party.
(j)Receive-only earth station registrations. You do not need prior Commission approval for a transfer of control or assignment of a receive-only earth station registration. For all such transactions other than non-substantial (pro forma) transfers of control, the transferee or assignee must file a notification with the Commission on FCC Form 312, Main Form and Schedule A no later than 30 days after the transfer or assignment is completed. No notification is required for a pro forma transfer of control of a receive-only earth station registrant.

In this document, the Commission announces that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved, for a period of three years, the information collection associated with the Commission&apos;s Report and Order adopting comprehensive changes to the Commission&apos;s rules governing licensing and operation of space stations and earth stations for the provision of satellite communication services. This document is consistent with the Report and Order, which stated that the Commission would publish a document in the Federal Register announcing OMB approval and the effective date of all of the rule changes adopted in the Report and Order.
79 FR 51263 - Extension of the Consummation Deadline for Space and Earth Station License Transfers and Assignments
FR Doc. 2014-20302
This document amends the Commission&apos;s rules to extend the time by which parties must consummate an approved satellite space station or earth station license assignment or transfer of control from 60 to 180 days. This will provide parties greater flexibility to set closing dates, decrease the need to file extension of time requests, and harmonize this consummation deadline with that in other wireless services.
79 FR 44312 - Comprehensive Review of Licensing and Operating Rules for Satellite Services.
FR Doc. 2014-17962
The final rule published February 12, 2014, at 79 FR 8308, contains information collection requirements that have not been approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The Commission will publish a document in the Federal Register announcing the effective date of the rule, this correction, and all other rules adopted by FCC 13-111 after receiving approval from the OMB for the information collection requirements contained in the rulemaking.
The Federal Communications Commission published in the Federal Register of February 12, 2014, a document concerning revisions in the Commission&apos;s rules. The document inadvertently failed to include an amendatory instruction. This document corrects the omission of that instruction.
79 FR 44140 - Comprehensive Review of Licensing and Operating Rules for Satellite Services
FR Doc. 2014-17869
The Commission will publish a document in the Federal Register announcing the effective date of the rule section corrected here and of this correction after receiving approval from the Office of Management and Budget for the information collection requirements contained in the rulemaking.
The Federal Communications Commission published a document in the Federal Register at 79 FR 8308, February 12, 2014, revising Commission rules. That document inadvertently included a reference to 2 GHz Mobile-Satellite Service in § 25.285(a)(2). This document corrects the final regulation by revising that provision.

79 FR 26863 - Commission&apos;s Rules Governing the Use of Earth Stations Aboard Aircraft Communicating With Fixed-Satellite Service Geostationary-Orbit Space Stations Operating in the Ku-Bands
FR Doc. 2014-10876
Effective June 11, 2014.
In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) promotes regulatory parity for Earth Stations Aboard Aircraft (ESAA) by adopting a primary allocation for ESAA in the 14.0-14.5 GHz band. The Commission also provides regulatory certainty by clarifying some of the ESAA rules.
79 FR 9445 - Proposal To Enable Operation of a Terrestrial Broadband Network in Certain Mobile Satellite Service Spectrum
FR Doc. 2014-03618
Comments are due on or before May 5, 2014 and reply comments are due on or before June 4, 2014. Written comments on the proposed information collection requirements, subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, Public Law 104-13, should be submitted on or before April 21, 2014.
In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposed to modify its rules for operation of the Ancillary Terrestrial Component (ATC) of the single Mobile-Satellite Service (MSS) system operating in the 2483.5-2495 MHz band. The proposed rule changes would allow the MSS operator to deploy a low-power terrestrial broadband network that would operate in both Globalstar&apos;s licensed spectrum at 2483.5-2495 GHz, and, with the same equipment, spectrum in the adjacent 2473-2483.5 MHz band used by unlicensed devices. This action could potentially increase the amount of spectrum available for broadband access in the United States. The Commission seeks comment on the potential impacts this proposal could have on unlicensed devices, which operate in the 2400-2483.5 MHz band, licensed Broadcast Auxiliary Service (BAS) stations, which operate in the 2483.5-2500 MHz band, and licensed Broadband Radio Service/Educational Broadband Service (BRS/EBS) stations, which operate in the 2496-2690 MHz band, along with the costs and benefits of the proposed approach.
