SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the DOJ
April 11, 2016 Letter, DOJ states that it
believes IPTG is dissolved and claims
that IPTG is therefore unable to comply
with the conditions of its international
section 214 authorization. The
Commission conditioned the grant of
authority on IPTG abiding by the
commitments and undertakings set forth
in the November 21, 2011 Agreement
from the president of IPTG to DHS. On
July 5, 2016, the Bureau’s
Telecommunications and Analysis
Division sent a letter to IPTG at the last
known addresses on record via certified,
return receipt mail, asking IPTG to
respond to DOJ’s allegations by August
3, 2016. The Bureau July 5, 2016 Letter
stated that failure to respond would
result in the issuance of an order to
terminate IPTG’s international section
214 authorization. IPTG did not respond
to the request.
In addition, IPTG may also be in
violation of several other Commission
rules and requirements. After having
received an international section 214
authorization, pursuant to section
63.21(a), a carrier ‘‘is responsible for the
continuing accuracy of the certifications
made in its application’’ and must
correct information no longer accurate
‘‘as promptly as possible and, in any
event, within thirty (30) days.’’ There is
no indication that IPTG is currently
providing service pursuant to its
international section 214 authorization.
If IPTG has discontinued service that
affected customers, it may also be in
violation of section 63.19(a) of the
Commission’s rules requiring prior
notification for such a discontinuance.
As part of its authorization, IPTG must
file annual international
telecommunications traffic and revenue
as required by section 43.62 of the
Commission rules. Section 43.62(b)
states that ‘‘[n]ot later than July 31 of
each year, each person or entity that
holds an authorization pursuant to
section 214 to provide international
telecommunications service shall report
whether it provided international
telecommunications services during the
preceding calendar year.’’ Our records
indicate that IPTG failed to file an
annual international
telecommunications traffic and revenue
report indicating whether or not IPTG
provided services in 2014 and 2015 and
may be in violation of section 43.62 of
the Commission rules. All carriers were
required to file their section 43.62 traffic
and revenue reports for data as of
December 31, 2014 by July 31, 2015 and
for data as of December 31, 2015 by July
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 241001
31, 2016. Furthermore, IPTG has an
outstanding debt and consequently its
account is red lighted through the Red
Light Display System. IPTG must visit
the Commission’s Red Light Display
System’s to pay its outstanding debt.
IPTG’s outstanding debt involves
regulatory fees. In addition to financial
penalties, section 159(c)(3) of the
Communications Act and section
1.1164(f) of the Commission’s rules
grant the Commission the authority to
revoke authorizations for failure to
timely pay regulatory fees.
IPTG’s failure to respond to this
Public Notice will be deemed as an
admission of the facts alleged by DOJ
and of the violation of the statutory and
rule provisions set out above. The
Bureau hereby provides final notice to
IPTG that it intends to take action to
declare IPTG’s international 214
authorization terminated for failure to
comply with conditions of its
authorization. We further advise IPTG
that its non-compliance with the
applicable regulatory provisions would
warrant termination wholly apart from
demonstrating IPTG’s inability to satisfy
the conditions of its authorization. IPTG
must respond to this Public Notice and
the issues alleged in the DOJ April 11,
2016 Letter, no later than 15 days after
publication in the Federal Register.
The proceeding in this Notice shall be
treated as a ‘‘permit-but-disclose’’
proceeding in accordance with the
Commission’s ex parte rules.
