The results of a search for cosmic gamma-ray bursts of primary energies E01 greater than 5 GeV and E04 greater than 20 TeV over time scales t = 1-100 ms, performed using the four-liquid-scintillation-counter EAS array (Morello and Navarra, 1981) at Plateau Rosa (elevation 3500 m) on 215 days during 1979-1982, are presented in tables and graphs and discussed. No counting-rate excess significantly above the statistical fluctuation is observed, although satellite detectors report at least 10 observable bursts during the operating period. Upper limits for the high-energy burst flux are established as phi1(E greater than E01) less than 0.00004 times t to the 0.36 erg/sq cm and phi4(E greater than E04) less than 0.000016 erg/sq cm for t less than 100 ms.
