The Objectors contend that it was precisely this policy that the technical restrictions in the ATC rules were designed to implement. They also maintain that this policy is embodied in Section 25.255 of the Commission's rules, which states, inter alia, that in the event ATC operations cause harmful interference to other services the ATC operator ``must resolve any such interference.'' The Objectors contend that the SkyTerra/Inmarsat Coordination Arrangement does not by itself justify granting SkyTerra's request.

Furthermore, with regard to the grandfathered fixed terrestrial services in the 2483.5-2500 MHz band, the coordination needed by the CDMA MSS operator to prevent interference will not change. Lastly, section 25.255 of the Commission's rules allows other services to file a complaint with the Commission if the ATC operator fails to resolve the interference caused by its operations. We also disagree with WCA's claim that the Commission stated that ATC may not operate below 2490 MHz. In the ATC Order, the Commission stated that: ``[t]o prevent the actions we take today
