The applications listed below have been found, upon initial review, to be acceptable for filing. 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. Consideration of each satellite application in this Public

rules, unless otherwise noted. 47 C.F.R. § 25.154.

SAT-LOA-20090528-00060            E S2791                  EchoStar Corporation
Date Filed: 05/28/2009 15:39:59:46000
Launch and Operating Authority


EchoStar Corporation (EchoStar) has filed an application for authority to launch and operate a geostationary orbit satellite (GSO) satellite in the
Fixed-Satellite Service using the C-band frequencies 3700-4200 MHz (space-to-Earth) and 5925-6425 MHz (Earth-to-space) at the 84.9° W.L.
orbital location. EchoStar proposes to operate its telemetry, tracking and commend (TT&C) operations at the edges of the 6/4 GHz frequency
bands. EchoStar states that to the extent that information relating to specific TT&C frequencies and satellite spacecraft design is not known
because it has not selected a satellite manufacturer, EchoStar requests a limited waiver of the rules, to the extent one is necessary, to submit its
application without the requested information. EchoStar also states that the presumption raised in Section 25.159(d) of the Commission’s rules
should not apply to this application. See Letter to Pantelis Michalpoulos, Counsel for EchoStar Corporation, from Robert Nelson, Chief, Satellite
Division, DA 09-1149 (released May 27, 2009). To the extent the Commission determines that Section 25.159(d) applies to its application,
EchoStar seeks a waiver of this rule.

Inclusion of this application on this public notice is without prejudice to any action with respect to the Section 25.159(d) presumption.

Date Filed: 08/06/2009 16:56:40:73600
Petition for Declaratory Ruling to be Added to the Permitted List


Hispamar Satélites, S.A. (Hispamar) has filed a petition for declaratory ruling seeking to access the U.S. market by adding the Amazonas-2
Ku-band geostationary satellite orbit (GSO) Fixed-Satellite Service (FSS) space station to the Commission’s Permitted Space Station List. The
Amazonas-2 space station is to be located at the 61º W.L. orbital location and is licensed under the laws of Brazil. Hispamar seeks to access the
U.S. market using the 14.0-14.5 GHz (Earth-to-space) and 11.7-12.2 GHz (space-to-Earth) frequency bands.
