report

"The wide field camera of the telescope FRAM,  located 
at  Pierre Auger observatory  in Malargue,  Argentina,
followed  the  Swift  GRB 070612B  (Grupe  et al. GCNs
6511 and 6514).

20s R-band (lambda_eff = 640nm,  limmag = 14.8) images
were  obtained starting  62s after the  GRB (45s after
receiving the notification).

We do not detect any new source in single nor combined
images within the BAT or XRT errorboxes."
