Recon Order titled, ``In the Matter of Amendment of Parts 1 and 63 of 
the Commission's Rules,'' IB Docket No. 04-47, FCC 10-187. In this 
Recon Order, the Commission amended its cable landing license 
application rules and application procedures to require applicants to 
certify their compliance with the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 
(CZMA), as amended, 16 U.S.C. 1456. The goal of the CZMA is to 
preserve, protect, develop and, where possible, restore and enhance the 
nation's coastal resources. Therefore, 47 CFR 1.767(k)(4) states that 
cable landing license applicants must furnish a certification to the 
Commission that the applicant is not required to submit a consistency 
certification with any state pursuant to the Coastal Zone Management 
Act.
