("PanAmSat") an authorization to launch and operate its Galaxy 141 satellite at 125.05' W.L.2 Condition 6 of that authorization requires PanAmSat to submit a written statement identifying "known satellites located, or planned to be located, at PanAmSat's assigned orbital location, or assigned in the vicinity of that location such that the station-keeping volume of the respective satellites might overlap" and stating measures that will be taken to prevent in-orbit collisions with these satellites. 1 This satellite was formerly known as Galaxy XIV. PanAmSat recently began idenhfying the satellites in its Galaxy fleet using Arabic numbers instead of Roman numerals. 2 See File No. SAT-AMD-20031223-00365.

Marlene H. Dortch April 19, 2004 Page 2 PanAmSat is the licensee of SBS-47 Galaxy 5, and Galaxy l2,4 the only known satellites located, or planned to be located, in the vicinity of Galaxy 14's 125.05' W.L. assigned orbital location. PanAmSat is not aware of any other FCC licensed systems, or systems applied for and under consideration by the FCC, in the vicinity of this orbital location.5 Likewise, PanAmSat does not believe there are any systems in the vicinity of this orbital location that are the subject of ITU filings and are progressing towards launch. Accordingly, there are no other operators with which PanAmSat must coordinate to prevent in-orbit collisions with Galaxy 14. PanAmSat has internal procedures in place to ensure that its satellites operating in the vicinity of 125.05"W.L. will not collide with Galaxy 14. Please direct any questions concerning this filing to the undersigned. Attorney for PanAmSat Licensee Corp. 3 PanAmSat is authorized to operate SBS4 on a conditional basis at 124.95' W.L. See PanAmSat Licensee Corp. N e w Application for Launch Authority, Order and Authorization, DA 04-277 (rel.
