On January 24, 2006, the Satellite Division granted Mobile Satellte Ventures Subsidiary
LLC‘s request to designate Telenor Satellite, Ic.‘s ("Telenor®) earth station applications
that seek authority and special temporary authority ("STA®)to provide Mobile Satellite
Services in the L—band with Inmarsat‘s 4F2 satelite, to be located at 52.75° W.L., as
"permit—but—disclose" for purposes of the Commission‘s rules governing ex parte
communications, See Motion to Designate Proceeding as "Permit—But—Disclose,"filed
by Mobile Satellite Ventures Subsidiary on January 20, 2006. We find that designating
these Telenor earth station applications as "permit—but—disclose" will facilitate resolution
of the complex policy issues raised by the applications. Thus, we designate IBFS File
Nos. SES—MFS—200601 1$—00050, SES—MFS—2006018—00051, SES—MFS—200601 18—

200601 19—00064 as "permit—but—disclose," effective January 24, 2006. See 47 C.F.R. §§
1.1200(a), 1.1206 and 1.1208 note 2. This action is without prejudice to any
determination regarding the processing ofthe applications.


Inmarsat—4 satelites:" The International Bureau has already designated these previouslyfiled
applications as permit—but—disclose proceedings." A free exchange of views, particularly with
Commission engineers, will be useful in creating a more complete record.
        Based on the foregoing, MSV respectfully requeststhat the Commission designate the ex
parte status of the above—captioned proceedings as "permit.but—disclose."
