During one of the regular Galactic Plan Scan performed by the High energy INTEGRAL satellite on 20-21 August, 2004 the Soft Gamma Ray Repeater SGR 1806-20 was in the field of view of the IBIS telescope during ~10 ks. Seven bursts were detected by the ISGRI/IBIS low energy detection plane from the source during this period in the energy band 18-70 keV. This frequency of bursts generation confirms that the source now stays in the active phase (ATEL #313).
