## Abstract

This document is a summary of the Report and Order adopted by the Commission in this proceeding. The Commission adopted licensing and service rules for satellite earth stations on vessels (ESVs) in the C- and Ku-bands that will provide regulatory certainty to ESV licensees, while protecting existing users in the bands. The new rules will further the Commission's goal of promoting market-based deployment of broadband technologies.
