D. A. Perley (UC Berkeley) reports on behalf of a larger collaboration:

Following our spectroscopic integration on the optical afterglow of GRB 
090313 (GCN 8994), we acquired one 60s frame in each of g, r, i, and z 
filters using Gemini-S (GMOS) in imaging mode between 05:11 and 05:18 UT 
(20.07 hours after the burst).  We report the following magnitudes:

g = 21.62 +/- 0.08
r = 20.12 +/- 0.03
i = 19.50 +/- 0.05
z = 19.03 +/- 0.05

The optical SED is well-fit assuming a moderate (A_V ~< 0.4) amount of 
SMC-like dust extinction.  The presence of a 2175 A dust feature is 
strongly ruled out by the z-band measurement.
