General Description

Spectroscopic redshifts of BRI colour selected galaxies are to be determined
using VIMOS MOS. These are in the surrounding field-of-view of the 
central quasar PKS0232-04. Three masks have been designed for two pointings
with OBs that will use the LR-RED grism. The first mask will be observed for 
2x1900s across 2 OBs, while the 2nd mask of the 1st pointing will have 1 
exposure of 1900 s.

A third mask has been designed for a 2nd pointing that is translated 3'x3'
from the QSO. This has also been allocated 2x1900 s exposures.

Waiver Requests

An extention waiver was granted as pre-imaging for PKS0232-04 was taken
 in August 
before the BRI imaging in run  381.A-0874(C) that was needed for the colour selection.
 
Therefore an extension beyond the 1 month deadline was granted.
