00:23
Kind of incorrectly,
00:25
one of the RPs advised that he was on feeling the truck driver told him that it was on fire he hadn't checked yet, he just called right away.

Just additional information. There's another RP just southeast of the location at (number withheld) Sky Ranch Road, advising that the fire is on his property, and it's related to his backhold that's on fire.

02:26

02:46
people just walking in and out normal so... ...intent 12 of course. Another RP called us from just southeast of the location at (number withheld) and I advised us that one of his construction equipment was on fire.
03:05
Okay, could you change the address so I can see where you're sending us?
03:16
How about you, sir? Oh,
03:22

03:23
A cloud.
03:26
I don't know if I'm like that again.

03:47
One zero one routine, Parker, oh five.
03:50
Thank you, Parker, Parker.
03:57
We're in the area.
03:59
We have smoke in the area. We're at a large storage area just north of 26 in Himalaya where Himalaya dead ends on the map.
04:18
All units from design 1.
04:22
Let's stage on Himalaya at Sky Ranch.
04:27
It's not Crowd Engine 1, stage at Himalaya and Stead Ranch.
04:33
All units to stage on Himalaya and Sky Ranch. In 12.
04:41
In 4 on...
04:48
The time one.
04:52
As engine 12 is on scene, we have a large semi-on fire up against the building.
04:58
We have no water supply. We'll be trying to make a knock on it with our 500 gallons. We'll be initiating fire attack. Give me 26 command.
05:12
Well, large demand on fire against building in a water supply, trying to make an aqua 500 gallons in the shooting fire attack and 26 command of 0011.
05:22
Engine 5 from Battalion 1. I think we're going to have to start a, like a splitway or start laying from Engine 12 back to the water supply.
05:39
Does this guy have a hydrant on his property? I'm showing there's one hydrant, two hydrants up there.
05:49
Let's go with the closest hydrant that you see as the best bet.
05:56
I know they're kind of limited back here.
06:03
Just like cutting in, I'm seeing a hydrant right on the property right parallel to Sky Ranch.
06:11
Just a tiny bit east of engine size's current location.
06:20
Yeah, I think that's right, just as we're going into the property.
06:24
Yes, I'm sir.
06:25
This first hydrant's going to be too far. The second hydrant though doesn't, we'd have to hand jack quite a ways.
06:34
I'm going to go with what you see Adam.
06:38
I can't read my map right now.
06:43
Let's get a water supply plan together before we commit. Are you going to lay from there?
06:49
I don't know. I need to know if that second hydrant up has a walk away from where engine 12 is.
06:56
This starts putting in again between one.
06:59
The third hydrant that I'm seeing on my mouth is the one I described.
07:03
I'm seeing three. That is the one I'm seeing on the property.
07:06
Currently showing just a tiny bit southwest of engine fire location.
07:10
We're going to go up to the second hydrant.
