General Description

The purpose of this project is to observe red giants in metal-poor globular
clusters of the galactic bulge with UVES, and field bulge giants with
Giraffe. We have processed all FPOSS, and attached the .ins files and
finding charts.

The main recommendation is to have the moon away by 30 degrees.

Waiver Requests

```
No Waiver Request was submitted
```

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

1) For spectroscopy, cirrus and reasonable seeing are acceptable (up to
 1 arcsec
seeing), but it is clear that with a higher seeing we gain signal.

2) Please avoid the moon, by having the object center around 30 degrees
away from the moon.

Time-Critical Aspects

The clusters have coordinates from RA = 17:18 to RA = 18:46, so that
the ideal period is from May to June, or the latest in July and early 
August.
