By the authority given to the U.S. Secretary of Commerce under the National and Commercial Space Programs Act of 2010 (P.L. 111—314), and as delegated to NOAA, we have assessed that your proposed mission will not be required to apply for a NOAA operator‘s license. This determination was made based on the information provided that the satellite system has no Earth—sensing capability. This does not relieve you of the obligation to receive any other U.S. Government licenses, permissions or permits. This applies to the ThinSat—1(A—L) mission only, and is based on the Initial Contact Form that was submitted on July 17, 2018. If the factual cireumstances of the information provided change, please resubmit your Initial Contact Form. Additionally, please contact CRSRA with any future satellite missions you may plan to operate to obtain a licensing determination on that specific mission. Sincerely, Tahara D. Dawkins Director, Commercial Remote Sensing Regulatory Affairs cc: Glenn Tallia, NOAA GC
