Attachment A DG Consents Sub, Inc. Application for STA Extension August 2015 Page 1 of 1 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 WorldView-3 space station using its earth station license operating under Call Sign E120040 in Rock Springs, Wyoming. 1 See File No. SES-STA-20140717-00605, as extended in File Nos. SES-STA-20141007-00791, SES-STA-20141219-00917, SES-STA-20150220-00088 and SES-STA-20150602-00317. The existing STA expires on August 8, 2015, and DG Consents requests an extension through October 7, 2015. Pursuant to the STA, DigitalGlobe has communicated with WorldView-3 using the Wyoming earth station following the satellite’s successful launch and placement into orbit on August 13, 2014. The requirement to communicate with WorldView-3 will continue past the August 8 expiration of the existing STA, thereby necessitating this request to extend the STA for another 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 WorldView-3, pending Commission action on the application to add WorldView-3 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 October 7, 2015. 1 DG Consents is a wholly owned subsidiary of DigitalGlobe, Inc. (“DigitalGlobe”). 2 DG Consents has filed a request to add WorldView-3 as a Point of Communication to the Wyoming earth station authorization, thereby making communications with the satellite a permanent condition of 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.
