We propose three observations using HST STIS of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy 1H 0707-495 to be coordinated with already-approved deep exposures using FUSE. A previous HST observation of 1H 0707-495 revealed strongly blueshifted high-ionization lines, suggesting an origin in an outflowing wind. Detailed photoionization modeling reveals that the wind line fluxes and ratios are consistent with two solutions: a high-density, high-column solution, originating close to the central engine, and a low-density, low-column solution, located much further out. These two locations, interestingly, correspond to those predicted by two different physical models for winds in AGNs. We can differentiate between these models by observing emission line variability on two time scales, and examining relative variability of OVI obtained by FUSE and CIV and other lines obtained by HST. We will also look for profile variability, constrain velocity ionization stratification through a detailed study of the profiles, and investigate metallicity, which has been suggested to be high in NLS1s. This program, requiring only a modest amount of time, is expected to make significant contributions to our understanding of outflows in AGN, and the structure, origin and metallicity of the broad-line region.
