The Commission reserves the right to return any of the applications if, upon further examination, it is determined the application is not in conformance with the Commission's rules or its policies.

Petitions, oppositions and other pleadings filed in response to this notice should conform to Section 25.154 of the Commission's rules, unless otherwise noted. 47 C.F.R. § 25.154. SAT-STA-20080512-00103 E EchoStar Corporation Date Filed: 05/12/2008 18:46:29:98600 Special Temporary Authority EchoStar Corporation has filed a request for Special Temporary Authority for a 60-day period commencing on or about July 1, 2008. EchoStar seeks to perform telemetry, tracking, and command (TT&C) functions during the relocation of the EchoStar 6 satellite from its current orbital position at the 110.4º W.L. orbital location to the 72.7º W.L. orbital location. Subject to regulatory approvals, control of the satellite at the 72.7º W.L. orbital location will pass to Telesat Canada, pursuant to an authorization from Industry Canada. During the satellite relocation, the EchoStar 6 satellite will transmit telemetry at the 12203 MHz and 12204 MHz frequencies, and will receive telecommands at the 17305 MHz frequency. In addition, EchoStar requests waiver of Section 25.202(g) of the Commission rules, which requires satellites to conduct TT&C within their allocated bands, in order to operate a telecommand beacon at the 14002.5 MHz frequency during relocation.
