SM a . 1 month deployment station and tell it to move somewhere. It will not suffer morale penalties. There is a towing-related bug with such stations that I have posted in the bug-report thread and will copy here.

Minor irritant of a bug that's probably been lurking for years: I have some engine-less military orbital habitats, and if the original suffers a maintenance failure while another one is being towed somewhere, the towed one reports that it has slowed due to damage and shifts only itself to a new task group, but it's still attached to the ship towing it.
Simply moving it back into the original task group fixes it, but it does cause unnecessary micromanagement.
Should probably test to see if the orbital habitat will still be towed despite being in a different task group. . .
