The Second FNPRM seeks comment on the routine conditions that the Commission should consider to improve its oversight of SLTE owners and operators. The Second FNPRM seeks comment on whether the Commission should adopt routine conditions for cable landing licensees that are subject to our current licensing requirement, as amended. With respect to SLTE, the Second FNPRM also seeks comment on whether to consider consistent or differing routine conditions for cable landing licensees that own and/or operate SLTE on their licensed submarine cable, or owns an SLTE and either owns or leases the underlying fiber, capacity, or spectrum, or leases the SLTE and the underlying fiber, capacity, or spectrum to another entity. Finally, the Second FNPRM seeks comment on whether it should adopt any other routine conditions for submarine cable landing licensees, including SLTE owners and operators. summary_source: official summary_en: In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) adopted a Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Second FNPRM) that seeks to further prevent evolving national security risks associated with submarine line terminal equipment (SLTEs) posed by foreign adversaries.
