  § 25.161   Automatic termination of station authorization.

   A station authorization shall be automatically terminated in whole or
   in part without further notice to the licensee upon:

   (a)(1) The failure to meet an applicable milestone specified in
   § 25.164(a) or (b), if no authorized space station is functional in
   orbit;

   (2) The failure to meet an applicable milestone specified in
   § 25.164(b)(1) or (2), if at least one authorized space station is
   functional in an authorized orbit, which failure will result in the
   termination of authority for the space stations not in orbit as of the
   milestone date, but allow for technically identical replacements; or

   (3) The failure to meet any other milestone or construction requirement
   imposed as a condition of authorization. In the case of a space station
   authorization when at least one authorized space station is functional
   in orbit, however, such termination will be with respect to only the
   authorization for any space stations not in orbit as of the milestone
   date.

   (b) The expiration of the license term, unless, in the case of an earth
   station license, an application for renewal of the license has been
   filed with the Commission pursuant to § 25.121(e) or, in the case of a
   space station license, an application for extension of the license term
   has been filed with the Commission; or

   (c) The removal or modification of the facilities which renders the
   station not operational for more than 90 days, unless specific
   authority is requested.

   (d) The failure to maintain 50 percent of the maximum number of NGSO
   space stations authorized for service following the 9-year milestone
   period as functional space stations in authorized orbits, which failure
   will result in the termination of authority for the space stations not
   in orbit as of the date of noncompliance, but allow for technically
   identical replacements.
