Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation

Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
Application is for a launch vehicle. Frequency request is made in accordance with FCC table of frequency allocations note US276. This STA will support three orbital test launches. The RF activity for each flight will last less than 6 hours (more likely less than 2 hours) making a longer duration authorization unnecessary
