INTELSAT maan Envision. Connect. Transform. February 22, 2017 Ms. Marlene H. Dortch Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Request for Special Temporary Authority Paumalu, Hawaii Earth Station E120008 Dear Ms. Dortch: Intelsat License LLC ("Intelsat") herein requests 180 days, beginning June 1, 2017, of Special Temporary Authority ("STA")‘ to use its Paumalu, Hawaii Ku—band earth station—call sign E120008— to provide telemetry, tracking, and command ("TT&C") services for Intelsat 1R (82368) during its drift from 50.1° W.L. to 169.2° E.L. and on—station at 169.2° E.L. Intelsat 1R began drifting on January 2, 2017, and the drift will take approximately four months." TT&C operations will be performed in the following frequencies: 14498.5 MHz (Earth—to—space); and 11696 MHz and 11697 MHz (space—to—Earth). The drift operations will be coordinated with all operators of satellites that use the same frequency bands and are in the drift path." All operators of satellites in that path will be provided with an emergency phone number where the licensee can be reached in the event that harmful interference occurs. The 24x7 contact information is as follows: Ph.: (703) 559—7701 — East Coast Operations Center (primary) (310) 525—5591 — West Coast Operations Center (back—up) Request to speak with Harry Burnham or Kevin Bell. The proposed TT&C operations at 169.2° E.L. will be consistent with Intelsat‘s coordination agreements for the nominal 169° E.L. orbital location. In the unlikely event that harmful interference occurs, Intelsat will take all necessary steps to eliminate the interference. ‘ Intelsat has filed its STA request, an FCC Form 159, a $200.00 filing fee, and this supporting letter electronically via the International Bureau‘s Filing System ("IBFS"). * See Policy Branch Information; Actions Taken, Report No. SAT—01208, File No. SAT—STA—20161018—00099 (granted in part and deferred in part) (Dec. 23, 2016) (Public Notice). * Intelsat will handle the coordination.
