A new version of the 3Q2005 APO 3.5m schedule has been posted as of 
8/12/05 and is appended below.  This version implements time trades 
related to NM05 (PI Chanover).  A more extensive revision of the schedule 
will take place by the end of the week, which will accomodate a delayed 
return of NICFPS to the mountain after summer engineering.  Please be on 
the lookout for that version before Friday, and contact me immediately if 
there are conflicts with rescheduled NICFPS observing time.

   	       ARC 3.5M SCHEDULE FOR 3rd QUARTER 2005
                      S.Hawley, R.McMillan 8/12/05


 			NOTES: ***PLEASE READ***

         8/12/05 - implemented time trades.  No DD or OPEN time
         in the 8/12/05 version of the schedule.

         6/29/05 - assigned OPEN and DD time.  There is no remaining
         OPEN or DD time in the 6/29/05 version of the schedule.

         As usual, observing time has been scheduled in half night
         blocks.  There are 1 half-night of OPEN time and 2 half-nights
         of unallocated DD time in the 6/11/05 version of the schedule.

         Scheduled engineering for 3Q2005 consists of 2 nights of
         routine EN01 time, 12 nights July 25-Aug 5 (EN02) and 12
         nights Aug 15-26 (EN03) of scheduled summer shutdown for
         maintenance of telescope and instruments, and 3 nights of
         engineering time for NICFPS (EN04), thus comprising 29 nights
         which is 31.5% of the total (92) nights.  There are also
         4 half-nights of DD time, which is 2.2% of the total.

 	In addition to scheduled engineering time, science
         observations may be pre-empted, sometimes on short notice,
         for urgent engineering or science tasks.  Such tasks include
         both work that is required to safeguard observatory personnel
         or facilities and that allows "hot pursuit" of some
         significant science program (e.g. ARC GRB program).

 	Please see links off of the APO home page
         (http://www.apo.nmsu.edu/)
 	for a web based interactive version of this schedule.

 	MOST PROGRAMS ARE SCHEDULED IN HALF NIGHT BLOCKS.  THE FIRST
 	HALF OF EACH NIGHT EXTENDS FROM SUNSET UNTIL 0100 MDT.  THE
 	SECOND HALF FOLLOWS UNTIL SUNRISE.

 	FIRST HALF IS INDICATED BELOW AS "A"; THE SECOND, AS "B".

 	THIS QUARTER ONE PROGRAM USES NON-BLOCK SCHEDULING.

 	INSTRUMENT CHANGE TIMES ARE NOT INCLUDED BELOW BUT WILL BE INDICATED
 	IN THE SCHEDULE ISSUED FROM APO AND WILL BE SHARED BETWEEN ADJOINING
 	PROGRAMS AS USUAL.
