                                       Description

        DG Consents Sub, Inc. (“DG Consents”), pursuant to Section 25.120(b)(3) of the
Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 25.120(b)(3), hereby requests a 60-day extension of its
existing Special Temporary Authority (“STA”) to communicate with the GeoEye-1 space
station (Call Sign S2348) using its earth station license operating under Call Sign
E120040 in Rock Springs, Wyoming.1 See File No. SES-STA-20150120-00014. The
existing STA expires on April 1, 2015, and DG Consents requests an extension through
May 30, 2015.

        The requirement to communicate with GeoEye-1 will continue past the April 1
expiration of the existing STA, thereby necessitating this request to extend the STA for
an additional 60 days.2 DigitalGlobe agrees to operate on a special temporary basis
subject to the conditions included with the initial STA grant. Grant of this request will
serve the public interest by allowing DigitalGlobe to continue to communicate with
GeoEye-1, pending Commission action on the application to add GeoEye-1 as a new
Point of Communication.

       In summary, DG Consents respectfully requests that the Commission grant this
request for extension of its Special Temporary Authority for a period of 60 days through
May 30, 2015.

2
  DG Consents has filed a request to add GeoEye-1 as a Point of Communication to the
Wyoming earth station authorization, thereby making communications with the satellite a
permanent component of the license. See File No. SES-MOD-20140717-00604, as
amended by File No. SES-AMD-20140725-00620. That request was accepted for filing
on August 6, 2014, see Public Notice, Report No. SES-01670, and remains pending
before the Commission.
