605 at174° E.L. upon its arrival atthatlocation, which currently is expected to be
late March 2005.
During the drit ofthe stellite, Intelsatwill utlize only TT&C frequencieson the
satelite. Those TT&C frequencies are as fllows

Uplin:             6175 Mite +/7 MHz
Downlink           3050 MHz +/—2.675 MHz
Grant ofthis STA request will serve the public interest by allowing Intelsat to help
restore service at 174° E.L. following a stellte falure. Moreover, allowing the
satellite to immediately begin drifing allows Intelsato conserve fuel on a satellite
(hatis nearingthe end of ts useful life. In addition, rant ofthis STA request will
not result in inereased risk of harmful interference.. As noted above, Itelsat will
operate only TT&C frequencies during the drif Should any interference occur
during the drif, Intelsat will take all reasonable steps to eliminate such interference
Because Intlsat would liketo begin the drif on January 31, 2005 in orderto have
INTELSAT 605 on locationat 174° E.L. as quickly as possible, Intelst respectfully
requests expeditious grant ofthis STA request
