DG Consents Sub, Inc.
Request for 30-day STA Extension

                                       Narrative Attachment

       DG Consents Sub, Inc. (“DigitalGlobe”) requests an additional 30 days, beginning July
24, 2019, of special temporary authority (“STA”) previously granted for DigitalGlobe to relocate
and operate WorldView-4, authorized under Call Sign S2348, at orbital altitudes between 450
and 550 km.1 Pursuant to Section 1.62 of the Commission’s rules, DigitalGlobe will continue to
operate under the terms and conditions of its existing STA pending action on this timely filed
renewal request.2

         Grant of this STA extension request will serve the public interest by allowing
DigitalGlobe to complete relocation of WorldView-4 to 450-550 km and, upon arrival, use the
satellite for training purposes. It will also ensure complete de-orbit of the satellite in the unlikely
event that WorldView-4 were to experience further anomalies.
