On November 10, 2005, the Satellite Division granted Mobile Satellite Ventures
Subsidiary LLC‘s requests to designate certain blanket earth station applications that seek
authority to operate Mobile Earth Terminals to provide Mobile Satellte Services in the
L—band with Inmarsat‘s 4F2 satellite, o be located at 52.75°W.L., as "permit—but—
disclose" for purposes ofthe Commission‘s rules governing exparte communications.
See Motion to Designate Proceeding As "Permit—But—Disclose," filed by Mobile Satellte
Ventures Subsidiary, LLC on October 7, 2005 (addressing SES—LFS—20050826—01175
and SES—AMD—2005022—01313 filed by Stratos Communications Inc. and SES—LFS—
20050930—01352 filed by Telenor Satellite,Inc.; See Motion to Designate Proceeding As
"Permit —But—Disclose," filed by Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary, LLC on October
13, 2005 (addressing SES—LFS—2005101 1—01396 filed by FTMSC US, LLC}. We find
that designating the carth station appliations as "permit—but—disclose" will faciitate
resolution ofthe complex policy issues raised by the applications. Thus, we designate
TBRS File No. SES—LFS—20050826—01 175, SES—AMD—20050922—01313, and SES—LFS—
20050930—01352, SES—LFS—200101 1—01396 as "permit—but—disclose," effective
November 10, 205. See 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.1200(@), 1.1206 and 1.1208, Note 2. This action
is without prejudiceto any determination regarding the processing ofthe applications.

Section 214 authorizations to operate in the United States using an uncoordinated Inmarsat
satelite in the L band. The applications raise policy issues concerning the management ofL
band spectrum, including complex technical issues. Other applications to operate in this band

particularly with Commission engineers, will be useful in creating a more complete record.
