Application for authority to modify the Cable Landing License for the South American-1 Cable Network (SAm-1),
SCL-LIC-20000204-00003, for an additional segment to be located between the existing cable landing station at Isla Verde, Puerto
Rico and a new destination point in Barranquilla, Colombia.
The SAm-1 cable is a fiber optic submarine cable system extending between: Boca Raton, Florida; Isla Verde, Puerto Rico; Fortaleza,
Brazil; Salvador, Brazil; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Santos, Brazil; Las Toninas, Argentina; Valparaiso, Chile; Arica, Chile; Lurin, Peru;
Puerto San José, Guatemala; and Puerto Barrios, Guatemala.  The SAm-1 cable is operated on a non-common carrier basis.
The new digital fiber optic segment will have a minimum design capacity of 10 Gbps per fiber pair on two fiber pairs.  Each fiber pair
will be capable of carrying a minimum of one wavelength of traffic.  The proposed extension will use the existing landing point for
SAm-1 in Isla Verde, Puerto Rico.  In Barranquilla, Colombia, the new segment will use the existing beach manhole and cable terminal
station owned by PARAPAT, a Colombian trust containing the telecommunications infrastructure formerly owned by Empresa
Nacional de Telecomunicaciones.
TI Wholesale Services Puerto Rico, Inc. and Telefonica International Wholesale Services USA Inc. (the "Applicants") are wholly
owned by Telefonica International Wholesale Services America S.A. (TIWSA), a corporation organized under the laws of Uruguay.
TIWSA is wholly owned by Telefonica International Wholesale Services, S.L. which is, in turn, wholly owned by Telefonica, S.A.; both
organized under the laws of Spain.  Telefonica is a publicly-traded company, and no person or entity has a direct or indirect ownership
interest of 10 percent or greater in Telefonica.
Applicants agree to accept and abide by the reporting requirements set out in section 1.767(1) of the Commission's rules, 47 CFR §
1.767(l), for the U.S.-Colombia route.
