V.Rumyantsev, E.Pavlenko (CrAO), A.Pozanenko (IKI) report:

We have imaged the error box of GRB030501 (Mereghetti et al. 2003, GCN 2183)
with AT-64 telescope of CrAO. Several unfiltered images were taken  on May,
1 21:59-23:12 (18.8 hours after GRB)  and   May, 3 22:36-23:34 (2.8 days
after GRB). Visual comparison with DSS-2I and comparison of the combined
images in different epochs (May 1 and May 3) reveals no new or fading
objects within GRB error box.

Log of observations is following:

Mid time    exposure   limit (3 sigma)
01.93200    17x120     20.1
03.96599    21x120     20.0

The combined image of May, 1 can be found in http://grb.rssi.ru/GRB030501/
