NOTICE OF REMOVAL OF DOMESTIC SECTION 214 APPLICATIONS FROM 
STREAMLINED TREATMENT
WC Docket No. 12-207 and 12-215
The Wireline Competition Bureau (Bureau) has removed the applications listed in this notice 
from streamlined treatment pursuant to the Commission’s streamlined procedures for domestic section 
214 transfer of control applications.1  Section 63.03(c)(1)(v) of the Commission’s rules provides that, at 
any time after an application is filed, the Commission, acting through the Chief of the Bureau, may notify 
an applicant that its application is being removed from streamlined processing where the Commission 
“determines that the application requires further analysis to determine whether a proposed transfer of 
control would serve the public interest.”2  
Domestic Section 214 Application Filed for the Transfer of Control of Cequel Communications 
Holdings, LLC to Nespresso Acquisition Corporation, WC Docket No. 12-207, DA 12-1235

Domestic Section 214 Application Filed for the Transfer of Control of 
One World Telecom, LLC, WC Docket No. 12-215, DA 12-1233 (rel. July 31, 2012)
On August 15, 2012, the Department of Justice, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation, 
with the concurrence of  the Department of Homeland Security (collectively, the Executive Branch 
Agencies), filed letters requesting that the Commission defer action on the domestic section 214 
applications in WC Docket Nos. 12-207 and 12-215 while they review potential national security, law 
enforcement, and public safety issues.3 The Bureau is removing the applications from streamlined review 
in response to the request filed by the Executive Branch Agencies. Final action on the applications should 
be expected after the Commission has received notification from the Executive Branch Agencies that the 
evaluations have been completed, but not later than 180 days from public notice that the applications were 
accepted for filing.4
