Date/Time of Initial Impact:  March 20, 2012  2021 UTC

Date/Time of Expected End:  March 22, 2012  0044 UTC

Length of Outage: 1 hour and 10 minutes for maneuver (2021 UTC -
2129 UTC);
27 hours and 15 minutes for recovery period (March 20, 2012 2130 UTC -
March 22, 2012 0045 UTC).

Details/Specifics of Change: GOES-15 (GOES-West) will be performing
a Yaw
FlipManeuver for one hour and 10 minutes on Tuesday, March 20,

maneuver.  A recovery period will follow immediately and last until
Thursday,  March 22, 2012  at 0044 UTC.  During the recovery period,
routine imager and sounder scans will be performed; however, the
navigation
may still be out of specifications until the end of the recovery
period.

GOES-13 (GOES-East) will perform Full Disk coverage from 2015-2144
UTC on
March 20, 2012.  The GOES-East Full Disk coverage is subject to change
should NWS call for Rapid Scans to support Critical Weather Status.

On March 21, 2012 0800-1100 UTC, the following images and soundings
will be
shortened or replaced due to navigation constraints during eclipse.
