         These outer classical Kuiper Belt objects were detected in a
    characterised survey.  Characterisation data and other information will be
    available from the discoverers after acceptance of a journal paper detailing
    the survey.  Dynamical classifications are based on a 10 Myr integration of
    the nominal orbit as well as the two extremal semi-major axis orbits compatible
    with the astrometry.
