The Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope (KAIT) at Lick Observatory slewed to the
position of GRB 090313 and found a new bright source not present in the DSS:
Coordinates (J2000) 13:13:36.21 +08:05:49.8
The bright moon is hindering follow up, but the source appears to be mag ~16 and
is a few arcseconds away from a galaxy.
