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. S2103SAT-AMD-20120809-00125 E Amendment 08/09/2012 15:38:48:51000Date Filed: ORBCOMM License Corp. Orbcomm License Corp. has filed an amendment to its application to modify its non-voice, non-geostationary mobile satellite service (Little LEO) system. See IBFS File No. SAT-MOD-20111021-00207. Orbcomm revises its deployment plan for its next-generation satellites, revises its orbital debris mitigation showing, and provides details of the launch mission profile for its first next-generation satellite. Specifically, Orbcomm seeks authority to deploy its first next-generation satellite to a circular operational orbit with a target inclination of 51.7 degrees and a target altitude of 750 kilometers in a separate, single-satellite orbital plane. Orbcomm seeks authority to deploy its remaining 17 next-generation satellites in four evenly phased orbital planes, with three planes consisting of four satellites each, and the fourth plane consisting of five satellites, each plane with a target inclination of 52 degrees and a target operational altitude of 750 kilometers. Orbcomm also requests modification or waiver of its fourth satellite implementation milestone, which requires Orbcomm to complete construction of and launch its first two next-generation satellites by September 21, 2012. Orbcomm requests a six month extension of that milestone, and requests that the milestone be modified to require deployment of one satellite instead of two.
