     We acknowledge that:

• Should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;

• The action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and

     Please provide a copy of the Commission’s order declaring the Registration Statement effective to Alberto de Cardenas, Esq., Executive Vice President & General Counsel of MasTec, Inc., at 800 S. Douglas Road, 12^th Floor, Coral Gables, Florida 33134.
