ORDER
Adopted: July 13, 2012 Released: July 13, 2012
By the Chief, Enforcement Bureau:
1. In this Order, we adopt the attached Consent Decree entered into between the
Enforcement Bureau (Bureau) of the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) and
Stratos Offshore Services Company, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Inmarsat plc
(SOSCO). The Consent Decree resolves and terminates the Bureau's investigation into SOSCO's
compliance with Section 301 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (Act),' and
Section 1.903(a) of the Commission's rules (Rules),2 pertaining to the apparent operation of
certain Wireless Communications Service fixed base transmitters from locations outside of their
authorized service areas.
2. The Bureau and SOSCO have negotiated a Consent Decree that resolves this
matter. A copy of the Consent Decree is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
3. After reviewing the terms of the Consent Decree and evaluating the facts before
us, we find that the public interest would be served by adopting the Consent Decree and
terminating the investigation.
4. In the absence of material new evidence relating to this matter, we conclude that
our investigation raises no substantial or material questions of fact as to whether SOSCO
possesses the basic qualifications, including those related to character, to hold or obtain any
Commission license or authorization.
5. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to Section 4(i) of the Act,3 and
Sections 0. I 1 and 0.311 of the Rules,4 the Consent Decree attached to this Order IS
ADOPTED.
