Several hundreds of spectra and monochromatic images of comet 19P/Borrelly were obtained with the Multi Pupil Fiber Spectrograph (MPFS) installed in the Prime Focus of the 6-m telescope of the SAO of the RAS (Nizhny Arkhyz) on Aug. 13 and 15 2001 and with Spectral Camera with Optical Reducer for Photometrical and Interferometrical Observations (SCORPIO) installed in the Prime Focus of the 6-m telescope of the SAO of the RAS on August 16 and 17. The observations were made ~ 41-37 days before the New Millenium DS-1 probe approach with the comet nucleus. For detailed identification we selected the spectrum of the comet 19P/2000 Borrelly obtained Aug. 15 2001. The rates of gas production (LogQ) of neutral molecules from the nucleus of the comet were calculated using Haser.
