       Attn:           Ms. Fern J. Jarmulnek
                       International Bureau, Satellite Policy Branch

  Dear Mr.    Caton:

       COMSAT General Corporation          ("COMGEN"),   pursuant to Section
  25.119 of the Commission‘s Rules,          hereby requests an extension of
  Special Temporary Authority to operate the COMSTAR D—4 satellite
  (KS—29)    at 76° W.L. using the COMSAT Maneuver,          from April 15,
  1996 to October 15,       1996.

       All operation of the satellite will be consistent with the
  Commission‘s previous grants of Special Temporary Authority and
  COMGEN will submit reports evaluating satellite operations during
  the period of Special Temporary Authority.  The current orbital
  inclination of the D—4 is approximately 8.7 degrees.  To COMGEN‘s
  knowledge, there is no other use planned for 76° W.L. during the
  period covered by this Request.

       COMGEN continues to successfully operate the COMSTAR D—4
  using the COMSAT Maneuver and, thereby, has extended
  significantly its useful life.          During its extended lifetime, no
  adjacent satellite interference has been observed in either space
  or ground segment with satellites spaced two degrees apart.
  Continued operation using the COMSAT Maneuver is anticipated to
  extend the useful life of the satellite at least another five
  years.

       Grant of this request for Special Temporary Authority is in
  the public interest because it will permit COMGEN to meet
  commercial demand for satellite service over the COMSTAR D—4
  satellite.


Mr.   William F.       Caton
April    12,    1996

     COMGEN hereby certifies that neither it, its officers and
directors, nor any party with a five percent or greater interest
in this request for special temporary authorization are subject
to a denial of the federal benefits requested herein pursuant to
Section 5301 of the Anti—Drug Abuse Act of 1988, 21 U.S.C.
§ 853    (a).

        The requisite filing fee of $575.00 is enclosed.

                                 Respectfully submitted,
