("SES Americom") is granted extension of STA for up to 30 days to test a new 9.2 m antenna, manufactured by SES, at South Mountain, California (34°19" 31.9" N.L./118° 59" 41.4" W.L.) with space station AMC—16 (Call Sign $2181) at orbital location 85 degrees W.L. in the frequency bands: 28.4—28.6 GHz (Earth—to—space), 29.5—30.0 GHz (Earth—to— space); 18.6—18.8 GHz (space—to—Earth), 19.7—20.2 GHz (space—to—Earth) under the following conditions: 1. The 17.8 — 20.2 GHz band is shared with U.S. Government space stations and associated earth stations in the fixed—Satellite Services. Services within the United States over the satellite network of which this is a cooperating earth station are subject to coordination under US334 and operation of the earth station(s) authorized herein will be subject to any technical constraints resulting from this coordination. See 47 C.F.R: Section 2.106, Footnote US334. 2. Operations under STA are limited with transmit and receive emission carriers NON (LHCP and RHCP) at maximum 40.5 dBW/4kHz eirp density not to exceed the authorized level under IBFS File No.: SES—MOD—20170601—00617. 3. SES Americom shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim protection from, interference caused to it by any other lawfully operatmgstation and it shall cease transmission(s) immediately upon notice of such interference. 4. Transmitter(s) must be turned off during antenna maintenance to ensure compliance with the FCC—specified safety guidelines for human exposure to radiofrequency radiation in the region between the antenna feed and the reflector. Appropriate measures must also be taken to restrict access to other regions in which the antennas‘ power flux—density levels exceed the specified guidelines. 5. The licensee shall take all necessary measures to ensure that the antenna does not create potential exposure of humans to radiofrequency radiation in excess of the FCC exposure limits defined in 47 CFR 1.1307(b) and 1.1310 wherever such exposures might occur. Measures must be taken to ensure compliance with limits for both occupational/controlled exposure and for general population/uncontrolled exposure, as defined in these rule sections. Compliance can be accomplished in most cases by appropriate restrictions, such as fencing. Requirements for restrictions can be determined by predictions based on calculations, modeling, or by field measurements. The FCC‘s OET Bulletin 65 (available on—line at www.fee.gov/oet/rfsafety) provides information on predicting exposure levels and on methods for ensuring compliance, including the use of warning and alerting signs and protective equipment for workers. 6. In the event that there is a report of interference, SES Americom must immediately terminate transmissions and notify the FCC in writing.

7. Any action taken or expense incurred as a result of operations pursuant to this special temporary authority is solely at SES Americom‘s own risk. 9. Operations during the period October 7, 2017 to the grant of this authorization were authorized pursuant to Section 1.62 of the Commission‘s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 1.62. 10. This action is issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegated authority, 47 C.F.R. § 0.261, and is effective immediately.
