Soums, Snvnens & DramseLLP. Secretary Dortch July 27, 2004 Page 2 2003 in which it requested authority to use additional spectrum for feeder links:*. On July 13, 2004, Bocing filed a second amendment to its application, which withdrew all of proposed technical changes to the design of the spacecraft and most of the proposed operational and terrestrial design changes to the network" As a result, the Commission‘s June 24, 2003 Order reflectsthe identical spacecraft design that Bocing is using in the construction process. Nonctheless, Bocing has taken the precaution of requesting several waivers of the Commission‘s rules that may be necessary to permit construction of the spacecraft that was authorized by the Commission in its June 24, 2003 Order. These waivers include (1) a request for waiver of Bocing‘s Critical Design Review (*CDR") milestone because the satellte design used in the CDR process was different than the satellite design that was included in the Commission‘s June 24, 2003 Order and was also different than the satellite design that Bocing is using in the construction process and (2) a waiver of the Commission‘s policy that system modifications requiring Commission authorization should be filed well in advance of the licensee‘s CDR milestone, absent unusual circumstances. Bocing‘s request for waivers was properly included in the amendment that Bocing filed on July 13, 2004. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
