PRELIMINARY ARC 3.5M SCHEDULE FOR 3RD QUARTER 2003 E. TURNER 6/16/03 NOTES: ***PLEASE READ*** Except in cases where strong science drivers dictate otherwise (a minority of cases), observing time has again been scheduled in half night blocks. Scheduled engineering time for this quarter consists of 3 nights of routine maintenance (EN01) or 3.3% of the total available time. A summer shutdown for re-aluminization of the primary, work on the enclosure shutters and many other tasks is scheduled for 40 nights or exactly 43% of the quarter. In addition to scheduled engineering time, science observations may be pre-empted, sometimes on short notice, for urgent engineering tasks. Such tasks include both work that is required to safeguard observatory personnel or facilities and that allows "hot pursuit" of some significant problem. Please see links off of the APO home page (http://www.apo.nmsu.edu/) for a web based interactive version of this schedule. There is no OPEN time in the present version of the schedule. ----- EN Note: No science observations scheduled during EN time. ----- EN01 = EN01 Gill ? O Routine periodic engineering time.
