    As part of our DEIMOS survey of the CL1604 supercluster at z = 0.9 (of
    which one of our SN targets CL1604+4304 at z = 0.90 is a member), we
    discovered a background cluster at z = 1.17. We have 37 confirmed members,
    with a velocity dispersion of ~850 km/s. This cluster is located near
    another SC member, CL1604+4321 at z = 0.92. It may be an interesting
    target because of the existing number of redshifts and the possibility of
    getting SN at z = 0.9 at the same time, although the lensing due to the
    intervening structure may make this target too complicated.

    Regards,
