Taxonomic Class: C
Published: MPB Pending
NOTES: Unless otherwise stated, the "Reduced Magnitudes" in the plots are Cousins R, based on 2MASS to BVRI conversions (Warner, MPB 34, 113-119)

H_R = 14.21 ± 0.10. Assuming V-R = 0.39 gives H = 14.60. Using G = 0.43 and original WISE data, the revised diameter is 2.75 km and albedo (pV) = 0.3384.
