 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.

 Amendment 
 05/  05/  2006  16:  01:  45:  51000  Date  Filed: 
 New  ICO  Satellite  Services  G.  P. 


 New  ICO  Satellite  Services  G.  P.  (ICO)  filed  an  amendment  to  its  pending  applications  (File  Nos.  SAT-  MOD-  20050926-  00182  and 
 SAT-  AMD-  20050927-  00186)  for  modification  of  its  2  GHz  mobile  satellite  service  authorization.  ICO  requests  authority  to  locate  its 
 satellite  at  92.85°  W.  L.  instead  of  93°  W.  L.  as  filed.  ICO  states  this  change  will  simplify  station  keeping  operations  and  minimize  the 
 likelihood  of  in-  orbit  collisions  with  other  satellites.  ICO  also  asks  the  Commission  to  defer  action  on  its  request  for  waiver  to  use 
 C-  band  frequencies  for  limited  or  emergency  telemetry,  tracking,  and  command  operations,  pending  completion  of  ICO’s  frequency 
 coordination  with  other  satellite  operators.  In  addition,  ICO  requests  a  waiver  of  47  C.  F.  R.  §§  25.116  (b)  and  (d).  Under  these 
 Sections,  applications  are  considered  newly  filed,  and  lose  their  place  in  the  processing  queue,  when  amended  by  a  major  amendment.

 Special  Temporary  Authority 
 03/  24/  2006  19:  50:  55:  36300  Date  Filed: 
 EchoStar  Satellite  L.  L.  C. 


 EchoStar  Satellite  L.  L.  C.  (ESLLC)  and  EchoStar  Satellite  Operating  Corporation  (ESOC)  (collectively  EchoStar)  request  a  180-  day 
 extension  of  the  special  temporary  authority  (STA)  currently  held  by  ESLLC  to  operate  a  Direct  Broadcast  Satellite  (DBS)  service 
 satellite  over  channels  23  and  24  at  61.5°  W.  L.  (See  File  No.  SAT-  STA-  20050926-  00183.)  Echostar  also  seeks  to  substitute  ESOC  as 
 the  holder  of  the  STA,  and  to  waive  the  customer  notification  requirements.
