We here introduce z-GAL, a Large Program using NOEMA, aimed at a comprehensive 3 and 2-mm spectroscopic redshift survey of a large sample of 137 bright (S500μm > 80mJy) Herschel-selected high-z dusty star forming galaxies, probing the peak of cosmic evolution. The results highlight the nature of the sources, including lenses and rare hyper-luminous infrared galaxies, as well as, in some cases, their multiplicity and will serve as a foundation for future detailed follow-up observations.
