Satellite Licensing Procedures
In this document, the Commission adopts a procedure that will give operators the flexibility to operate satellites in their fleets at any one of their orbit locations assigned to their fleet without individual prior Commission approval. The Commission also relaxes a licensing requirement for receive-only earth stations accessing certain foreign-licensed satellites. These actions are necessary to provide U.S.-licensed and non-U.S.-licensed satellite operators authorized to provide service to the United States more flexibility to meet their customers' needs.
