Operations may not exceed the operational power levels and parameters requested and coordinated. Operations shall be on an unprotected, non—interference basis with respect to other authorized stations, including federal stations. Any future requests or extensions will need to the FCC to be coordinated with NTIA. RBC Signals will inform NTIA (bmitchell@ntia.doc.gov or by phone 202—482—4487) and the FCC (Paul.Blais@fec.gov or by phone 202—418—7274) at least 24 hours prior to the planned operations or if delayed beyond the requested beginning date 01/10/2018. RBC Signals must provide any contact, orbital and schedule updates to AF at AFSPC.A6CE.SMO@us.af.mil. This will provide AFSPC situational awareness. In addition, NTIA (bmitchell@ntia.doc.gov or by phone 202—482—4487) and the FCC (Paul.Blais@fee.gov or by phone 202—418—7274) must also relay any changes to AF at AEFSPC.AGCE.SMO@us.af.mil should they receive from RBC Signals, LLC. RBC Signals shall be aware that future non—federal launch and early orbit operations will be considered on a case—by—case basis especially for requests in the band 401.43—450.25 MHz, and RBC Signals shall have no expectations that future operations will be approved. All transmissions in the band 449.93—450.07 MHz and 450.20—450.25 must comply with national and international power flux—density limits. Operations, shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim protection from interference caused to it by any other lawfully operating station and it shall cease transmission(s) immediately upon notice of such interference and notify the FCC in writing. Any action taken or expense incurred as a result of operations pursuant to this STA is solely at RBC Signals‘ risk. 24/7 point of contact for STA operations must be available while frequencies are in use.

10. Grant of this authorization is without prejudice to any determination that the commission may make regarding pending or future RBC Signals applications. 11. 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 earth station‘s power flux density levels exeeed the specified guidelines. The licensee shall take all necessary measures to ensure that the antenna does not create potential exposure of humansto 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. 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. 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. 4 , & ?7 20 w pageys ilh.
