Abstract
The optical counterpart of a new INTEGRAL hard X-ray source IGR J18151-1052 (Krivonos, et al., ATEL _s172170) was observed with the 6-m BTA telescope (SAO RAS, Nizhnij Arkhyz, Russia) on August 24th, 2009. The only one relatively faint (I=~18.7) object was found in the XRT error box. The object is located at RA,Dec= 18 15 03.83 -10 51 35.0 (J2000, coordinates are given relative to USNOB1.0), 2.6 arcsec from the XRT position.
