     Dear Ms. Dortch:

     Temporary Authority ("STA")‘ for 30 days, beginning immediately upon
     grant, to utilize its Clarksburg, Maryland Ku—band earth station to opérate in
     new TT&C frequencies with the Intelsat 11 satellite at 43.1° W.L. and 43.0°
     W.L., the latter prior to grant of permanent operating authority. Specifically,
     the antenna will communicate in the center frequencies 11448.0 MHz and
     11449.0 MHz (downlink) and 13246.5 MHz and 13995.5 MHz (uplink).
     Intelsat has a pending application for authority to use this antenna to transmit
     in these frequencies on a permanent basis toIntelsat 11 at 43.0° Ww.L.

     Intelsat plans to use this antenna in support of satellite transition operations _
     currently scheduled to begmin early July. Specifically, this antenna will be
     used to provide TT&C services to the Intelsat 11 satelhte at its current location
     of 43.1° W.L. and at its new location of 43.0° W.L.*

      In support of this request, Intelsat incorporates by reference its pending
      application for authon’w to use this antenna to transmit in these frequencies on
      a permanent basis.* .The application contains detailed technical information (in
    ~ Exhibits A—E) that demonstrates that the operation of the earth station ——at both
      43.1° W.L. and 43.0° W.L. —— will be compatible with its electromagnetic
      environment and will not cause harmful interference into any lawfully
      operating facility. In the extremely unlikely event that harmful interference
