Okay, so at that entrance of where that ComEd station right near Burner is, is that west of that entrance?
00:12
Right now, you're going to be east of us.
00:19
The Hoff companies are west of you,
00:24
take shoe factory west and Marine that's the next light and make it right.
00:29
Okay, our incoming Bartlett, Jenna, still continue to stage right at shoe factory and Burner.
00:37
All right in three from 911.
00:44
Go ahead. Okay.
00:45
I'm going to actually go east of here to Essex, up to Chatham, and then bring it in.
00:50
I think that's our best vantage point.
00:52
Not that there's much we'll do, but I'm going to go check that area out.
00:56
Okay, I know that on our pre-plans, we do have a hydrant access right there on Chatham to a service road to be able to drop any lines, but it's going to be a lot of hand-jacking of holes for that distance here on our pre-plan if you want to try to click on that.
01:12
I'm just about to make a face-to-face.
01:14
with Huffin's battalion here over in this parking lot.
01:19
All right, sounds good.
01:21
Yeah, I looked at flow, and that's where I saw that hydrant.
01:24
So I figured I'd see if there's a good damage point from there.
01:27
Okay, I'm just pulling into that plot.
01:31

Hi, sir.
02:04
I'm going to catch up with 901 on Chatham and I'll make my way around you.
02:10
Yeah, we have an active fire in that building that is probably close to their main entrance here.
02:16
I'm not committing any vehicles at this time here.
02:19
I'm going to be trying to figure out what vehicles I'm going to start returning, but I don't think we're going to keep our full compliments at this time.
02:31
Tiny three information.
02:33
Go ahead.
02:34
So we'll update your little over 20 minutes.
02:36
Talk to ComEd 10 to 15 minutes for them.
02:40
They're still trying to remote disconnect, but it has not been done yet.

Yeah, let them know it is a very active fire in one of their buildings closest to that gate entrance here.
