This document specifies requirements for the following: — planning for disposal of a spacecraft operating at geosynchronous altitude to ensure that final disposal is sufficiently characterized and that adequate propellant will be reserved for the manoeuvre; — selecting final disposal orbits where the spacecraft will not re-enter the operational region within the next 100 years; — executing the disposal manoeuvre successfully; — depleting all energy sources on board the vehicle before the end of its life to minimize the possibility of an event that can produce debris.
