conduct Telemetry, Tracking, and Command operations with the Intelsat 709 space station to effect the drift of the Intelsat 709 space station from
the 85.15º E.L. orbital location to the 54.85º E.L. orbital location using the following frequencies: 6173.7 MHz and 6176.3 MHz (left-hand
circular polarization/Earth-to-space); 3947.5 MHz, 3948.0 MHz , 3952.5 MHz, and 3952.0 MHz (right-hand circular polarization/space-to-Earth).
Additionally, Intelsat is authorized to operate the Intelsat 709 space station in the 3700-4200 MHz (space-to-Earth), 5925-6425 MHz
(Earth-to-space), 10950-11200 MHz (space-to-Earth), 11450-11700 MHz (space-to-Earth), 12500-12750 MHz (space-to-Earth), and
14000-14500 MHz (Earth-to-space) frequency bands to provide fixed-satellite service (FSS) from the 54.85º E.L. orbital location once it arrives at

telecommand and the 12,203 and 12,204 MHz frequencies for telemetry during these operations. We defer action on EchoStar's request to operate
EchoStar 6 at the 61.65° W.L. orbital location temporarily as an in-orbit spare. We also take the administrative action of re-assigning the call sign
S2232 to the EchoStar 6 space station.
