The survey include 104 objects in the range r=18-21 and proper motions 1.3 to 18 degrees per day. Simulations show that virtually all objects are nearby members of the NEO population and have magnitudes in the range H=22-26, characteristic of Earth impactors in the 1-100 Megaton range. The cumulative number of objects to H=25 is 3-4x10^5, well below power-law extrapolations from brighter objects but in-line with more recent population estimates. The median color is midway between that for main-belt C and S types.
