I understand you're asking for clarification of Eureka Station's planned location. Yes, we are indeed requesting to site it at the Ross Planetoid lane terminus within the Norfolk exclusion zone. We would like to place a commercial and diplomatic station there for much the same reason Her Majesty's Armed Forces has posted the HMS Norfolk there. All traffic heading into the Omega border systems bound for Rheinland passes by there. We are well aware that the War Cabinet is required to sign off on construction, and we're willing to wait until they've had their say.
On a side note, I must admit to some confusion concering the 15K distance requirement. Both myself and the Guild's legal team can't find any reference to it in Chapter 5 of the Charter of Interstellar Law. The only mention of any distance requirement is the 10k limit mentioned in the first bullet point of §5.4. My legal team has requested that you cite the appropriate case or statute law concerning this.
