Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)

```
07:02:30

General Description

The proposal consists of a set of IFU observations on five relatively
 bright galaxies hosting an X-ray
source. In order to reach the required S/N, the exposure time for three (A1835_15
 A2690_13 Pks0312_18)
of the targets is between 45 e 50 minutes, and due to the significant overheads
 of this kind of
observation, the corresponding OB Execution Times slightly exceeded (1h17'-1h22')
 the permitted limit.
A waiver request for having the OBs longer than one hour has been submitted (WaiverID:
  076.B-0723A.01),
and it has been granted by means of a mail from Marina Rejkuba (USD-13771).

The observations of the faintest object (Pks0312_17) has been splitted in two OBs
 shorter than 1 hour.

Following the VIMOS-IFU specific requirements for the preparation of the Finding
 Charts, we attached
to each OB a set of two charts, a large 5'x 5' DSS view of the field, with the target
 indicated by an
arrow, and a 1'x 1' view (from EFOSC images obtained in R-band) with the exact positition
 of the adopted
IFU (13"x 13") indicated by a square box on the chart.

Waiver Requests

076.B-0723A.01: the request was submitted on 14/07/05 and approved by
 Marina Rejkuba on 21/07/05

N/A
```

Did you specify suitable guide stars for all your OBs using Guidecam ?

```
N/A
