 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.

 Loral  Skynet  Corporation 


 Loral  Skynet  Corporation  has  filed  an  application  to  modify  the  space  station  license  for  the  Telstar  11N  replacement  satellite, 
 currently  authorized  for  operation  in  the  10.95-  11.2  GHz,  11.45-  12.2  GHz,  12.5-  12.75  GHz,  and  13.75-  14.5  GHz  bands  at  the  orbital 
 location  of  37.5°  West  Longitude.  Loral  Skynet  requests  Telstar  11N  license  modifications  including  authority  to  operate  at  the 
 orbital  location  of  37.55º  West  Longitude  with  increased  transponder  capacity  and  authority  for  expanded  geographical  coverage. 
 Loral  Skynet  contends  that  the  proposed  changes  would  serve  the  public  interest  by  enabling  it  to  use  its  authorized  frequencies  more 
 efficiently  and  provide  service  in  a  larger  coverage  area. 


 Loral  Skynet  also  requests  waiver  of  Section  25.202(  g)  of  the  Commission’s  rules,  if  necessary,  to  allow  Telstar  11N  to  use  carriers  at 
 11699.5  MHz,  11698.5  MHz,  11198.25  MHz,  and  11199.25  MHz  for  telemetry.

 SES  Americom,  Inc. 


 SES  Americom,  Inc.  (SES  Americom)  has  filed  an  application  for  a  modification  of  its  license  for  the  Ka-  Band  payload  on  the  AMC-  16 
 geostationary  Fixed  Satellite  Service  satellite.  The  satellite  is  currently  operating  at  the  118.75°  W.  L.  orbital  location.  See  SES 
 Americom,  Inc.  and  EchoStar  Satellite  L.  L.  C.,  Order  and  Authorization,  DA  06-  757  (Int'l  Bur.,  rel.  April  7,  2006)(  approving  drift  of 
 AMC-  16  from  the  85°  W.  L.  orbital  location  to  the  118.75°  W.  L.  orbital  location,  transfer  of  control  of  the  satellite's  Ku-  Band 
 operations  to  Telesat  Canada,  for  operation  under  a  Canadian  authorization,  and  cessation  of  Ka-  Band  operations  at  the  85°  W.  L. 
 orbital  location  until  December  31,  2006);  see  also  File  No.  SES-  STA-  20060921-  00108  (granting  SES  Americom  authority  for  60 
 days,  until  November  21,  2006,  to  operate  the  AMC-  16  Ka-  Band  payload  at  the  118.75°  W.  L.  orbital  location).  SES  Americom  seeks 
 authorization  to  transfer  control  of  the  Ka-  Band  payload  to  Telesat  Canada,  which  would  operate  the  Ka-  Band  payload  pursuant  to  an 
 authorization  from  Industry  Canada.  SES  Americom  also  seeks  to  extend  the  period  in  which  Ka-  Band  operations  at  the  85°  W.  L. 
 orbital  location  would  be  suspended,  until  September  30,  2007.  SES  Americom  states  that  the  extension  is  necessary  due  to  delays  in 
 the  launch  of  the  Anik  F3  satellite,  which  is  expected  to  provide  regular  service  at  the  118.75°  W.  L.  orbital  location.

 DG  Consents  seeks  authority  to  reduce  the  number  of  authorized  satellites  from  three  to  one.  No  new  or  changed  frequency  bands  are 
 requested  in  the  application.
