C. 20554 News media information 202- 418- 0500 Fax- On- Demand 202- 418- 2830; Internet: http:// www. fcc. gov (or ftp. fcc. gov) TTY (202) 418- 2555 Friday May 27, 2005 SAT- 00295 Report No. Satellite Space Applications Accepted for Filing POLICY BRANCH INFORMATION The applications listed below have been found, upon initial review, to be acceptable for filing. The Commission reserves the right to return any of the applications if, upon further examination, it is determined the application is not in conformance with the Commission's rules or its policies. Consideration of each satellite application in this Public Notice may depend on the Commission's action on another satellite application earlier in the queue. Petitions, oppositions and other pleadings filed in response to this notice should conform to Section 25.154 of the Commission's rules, unless otherwise noted. 47 C. F. R. § 25.154. S2389 SAT- MOD- 20050512- 00098 E Modification 05/ 12/ 2005 15: 19: 48: 20000 Date Filed: Intelsat LLC Intelsat LLC has filed an application for modification of its license to relocate INTELSAT 602 from 50.5º E. L. to 150.5º E. L. As authorized by the FCC, Intelsat is currently drifting its INTELSAT 602 satellite to 157º E. L., and plans to stop it instead at 150.5º E. L. in June 2005. At the new location, INTELSAT 602 will operate in the inclined operation mode. S2674 SAT- PPL- 20050504- 00094 E Petition for Declaratory Ruling to be Added to the Permitted List 05/ 04/ 2005 18: 25: 38: 86300 Date Filed: Telesat Canada Telesat Canada (Telesat) has filed a petition for declaratory ruling to add Anik F1R, a replacement satellite for the North American payloads on Anik F1 at 107.3° W. L. to the FCC’s Permitted Space Station List (the Permitted List). The Anik F1R satellite is a hybrid satellite with a payload which includes both conventional C- band (3700- 4200 MHz downlink and 5925- 6425 MHz uplink) and conventional Ku- band (11.7- 12.2 GHz downlink and 14.0- 14.5 GHz uplink) and provision of Telecommand carriers which are assigned in the range 13.99- 14.0 GHz. Telesat has received an approval in principle from Industry Canada to operate Anik F1R at 107.3° W. L. The satellite is scheduled for launch in August 2005. Anik F1R is being launched due to power anomalies being experienced on Anik F1, however, it is not Telesat’s intention that Anik F1 be removed from the FCC’s Permitted List. Rather, after Anik F1R and Anik F1 are collocated at 107.3º W. L., North American traffic will be transferred from Anik F1 to Anik F1R, but Anik F1 will continue in service primarily to serve South America and links between South and North America. Telesat therefore intends that both Anik F1 and Anik F1R be on the Permitted List at this orbital location, in order to ensure continuity of service to U. S. consumers. In addition, Telesat requests a waiver of Sections 25.210( a)( 3) and 25.210( i) of the Commission’s rules (47 CFR §§ 25.210( a)( 3) and 25.210( i)).

S2675 SAT- PPL- 20050513- 00099 E Petition for Declaratory Ruling to be Added to the Permitted List 05/ 13/ 2005 13: 44: 57: 19600 Date Filed: New Skies Satellites B. V. New Skies Satellites B. V. has filed an application notifying the Commission of a pro forma corporate reorganization and initial public offering of approximately 40 percent of the New Skies companies. Pursuant to this reorganization, four new entities are being inserted into the chain of ownership of New Skies Satellites B. V. (NSSBV), which holds Permitted List Space Stations NSS- 5, NSS- 7, and NSS- 806. These new entities include the transferee in this notification, New Skies Satellites Holdings Ltd., a Bermuda company (NSS Holdings), which will be publicly traded. Accordingly, pursuant to section 25.137( g) of the Commission's rules, the Satellite Division seeks comment on whether the transaction affects any of the considerations made when the original satellite operator of stations NSS- 5, NSS- 7, and NSS- 806 was allowed to enter the U. S. market. See New Skies Satellites, N. V., DA 01- 513, Order, 16 FCC Rcd. 7482 (Int'l Bur., Sat. and Rad. Div., released March 29, 2001); New Skies Satellites, N. V., DA 02- 1256, Order, 17 FCC Rcd. 10369 (Int'l Bur., Sat. Div., released May 28, 2002). Page 2 of 2 2
