Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: EchoStar Satellite L.L.CApplication for Special Temporary Authority To Conduct Telemetry, Tracking and Command Operations During the Relocation of EchoStar 4 to 77° W.L. (File No. SAT—STA—20050321—00068) Dear Ms. Dortch, EchoStar Satelite LL.C. ("EchoStar®) hereby requests expedited action on the above— referenced request for Special Temporary Authority to move the EchoStar 4 satellie to 77° W ... where it will operate as a Mexican—Licensed stellite, and submitsadditional information in support ofthat request. Specifically, the EchoStar 4 satellite can safely be moved from itscurrent position at 157° W.L. at up to 2.5° to 3° per day. This means that in order to get to the 77° W.L. slot by the requested date (July 1), the satellite will need to start moving by June 1, assuming an average speed of 2.7° per day (not including the several days required to get the satellite up to speed and to slow it down as it reaches 77° w.L). EchoStar further takes this opportunity to clarify that a direct—to—home ("DTH") concession from the Mexican government is nor required to bring into use the 77° W.L. frequencies The concession currently held by QuetzSat, S. de R.L. de C.V. (‘QuetzSat") is sufficient. washincton + wew york +. rwornix +/ tos anorits +. Loxbon + srusseis
