REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORTTY Pursuant to Section 25.120 of the Commission‘s rules,‘ PanAmSat Licensee Corp. ("PanAmSat") requests an extension, for an additional 180 days, of the grant of special temporary authority ("STA") allowing it to operate Galaxy 12 at 125.05° W.L. In December 2004, PanAmSat received authority to relocate Galaxy 12 from 125.25° W.L. to 125.05° W.L. and to operate the satellite at that orbital location. Without an extension, the STA under which Galaxy 12 now operates will expire on July 23, 3005.2 When PanAmSat applied for its STA previously, Galaxy 12 was one of three satellites that PanAmSat had been operating in the vicinity of 125° W.L. To facilitate stationkeeping, the Commission had authorized PanAmSat to maintain a slight separation among the satelltes: Galaxy 5, which was PanAmSat‘s operational C—band satellite; Galaxy12, which was serving as an in orbit spare; and SBS—4, which was PanAmSat‘s operational Ku—band satellite. In its previous STA request, PanAmSat stated that Galaxy 5 was approaching the end of ts useful life, and that PanAmSat would need to operate Galaxy 12 as a replacement for Galaxy 5 on an interim basis pending the launch and entry into service of Galaxy 14. Galaxy 5 was decommissioned in January 2005," and prior to decommissioning, the traffic on Galaxy 5 was transferred to Galaxy 12. Although the Commission has authorized PanAmSat to launch and operate Galaxy 14,t it will be several months at a minimum before Galaxy 14 will be launched, undergo in—orbit testing, and arrive on station. To ensure continuity of service, therefore, PanAmSat will need to continue operating Galaxy 12 at 125.05° W.L. PanAmSat‘srequestis supported by good cause. An STA will enable PanAmSat to maintain continuity of service, via Galaxy 12, after the current STA for Galaxy 12 has expired. Accordingly, and for good cause shown, PanAmSat respectfully requests an STA for 180 days, following the expiration of the current STA, to operate Galaxy 12 at 125.05° W.L. Please direct any questions concerning this matter to Joseph A. Godles, counsel for PanAmSat, at (202) 429—4900. urore s2mm 2 Se File No. SAT—STA—20041215—00220 (grantingan STA fr the period of January 23, 200 through July 2 208) 3 Sleter, dated February 11,2005, from Joseph A.
