SES Americom, Inc. Special Temporary Authority IBFS File No. SAT—STA—20110715—00128 (AMC—5, Call Sign $2156) The application of SES Americom, Inc. (SES), IBFS File No. SAT—STA—20110715—00128, for special temporary authority, for a period of 60 days, to continue to conduct Telemetry, Tracking, and Telecommand (TT&C) operations necessary to maintain the AMC—5 Ku—band satellite (Call Sign S$2156) at the 79.10° W.L. orbital location with a stationkeeping tolerance of +0.1 degrees is GRANTED. Specifically, SES is authorized to conduct TT&C operations using the center frequencies of 14.001 GHz (telecommand) and 11.701 and 11.702 GHz (telemetry). All operations of the AMC—5 space station must be in accordance with the technical specifications set forth in its application, Federal Communication Commission (Commission) rules, and the conditions set forth below. 1. SES is granted a waiver of Section 25.210(j) of the Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.210. Section 25.210(j) requires geostationary space stations to be "be maintained within +/— 0.05° of their assigned orbital longitude in the east/west direction, unless specifically authorized by the Commission to operate with a different longitudinal tolerance." SES proposes to operate AMC—5 at the 79.10° W.L. orbital location with an east—west station—keeping tolerance of +/—0.1 degrees. SES states that AMC—5°s +/— 0.1 stationkeeping volume will not overlap with any other spacecraft and thus AMC—5‘s operations will not adversely affect the operations of other spacecraft. This waiver and the operations it permits shall terminate in the event that a satellite is launched into a location such that its station—keeping volume would overlap AMC—5‘s +/—0.1 degree station—keeping volume, but would not overlap AMC—5‘s +/—0.05 degree stationkeeping volume, unless SES has successfully coordinated AMC—5‘s physical operations with those of the other spacecraft. 2. SES must operate the AMC—5 space station in compliance with existing and future international coordination agreements applicable to SES‘s operations at the 79° W .L. orbital location, including a coordination agreement with Argentina. 3. Grant of this authorization is without prejudice to any determination that the Commission may make regarding SES‘s pending application to modify the operations of the AMC—5 space station at the 79.10° W.L. orbital location (IBFS File No. SAT—MOD—20110714— 00126). 4. SES has 30 days from the date of this grant to decline this authorization as conditioned. Failure to respond within that period will constitute formal acceptance of the authorization as conditioned. 5. This action is issue pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. § 0.261, and is effective immediately. oi2s ———~—~~*~| ric# SAr— e zono7i5—o i Call Sign $215W__ Grant Date 6729 )\ , (or otheridentifiet) dunpus here!
