December 14, 2012 Ms. Marlene H. Dortch Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, S.W. Washington, DC 20554 Re: Supplement to Application for Modification of Authority for Intelsat 19 Call Sign S2850; SAT-MOD-20120628-00107 Dear Ms. Dortch: In response to a request from the FCC staff, Intelsat License LLC (“Intelsat”) hereby clarifies Intelsat’s waiver request in the above referenced application to operate Intelsat 19 at 166.0° E.L. in the 12250-12750 MHz frequency band. Specifically, Intelsat’s request to transmit in these frequencies “to its Napa, California, earth station, as well as in the visible portion of ITU Region 2”1 means that Intelsat seeks authority to operate in the 12250-12750 MHz frequency band in the entirety of the coverage area of the following Intelsat 19 downlink beams: South West Pacific, North West Pacific, North East Pacific, Ku-band ULPC, and Global Telemetry beams. The coverage of these beams -- each of which includes at least part of ITU Region 2 -- is set forth in Exhibits 5A-14 through 5A-18, Exhibits 5B-4 through 5B-6, and Exhibit 5C-3 at pages 45-49, pages 53-55, and page 58, respectively, of the Engineering Statement included in the application SAT-RPL-20111222-002452 and attached hereto for the Commission’s convenience. These beam patterns show that Intelsat 19 will operate in a small portion of the United States in the 12250 – 12750 MHz frequency band – specifically, only in Hawaii, Alaska and the far western United States. Intelsat 19 will transmit to multiple earth stations within these beams, including to mobile antennas. 1 See Policy Branch Information; Satellite Space Applications Accepted for Filing, Report No. SAT-00888, File No. SAT-MOD-20120628-00107 (Aug. 3, 2012) (Public Notice) at 3. 2 See Policy Branch Information; Actions Taken, Report No. SAT-00871, File No. SAT-RPL-20111222-00245 (June 1, 2012) (Public Notice).
