01:37
Paul is the tiny one.
01:39
I know that Andrew and the rest of the engine 7 there went in the basement so I'm not sure for the seven radio issues but it sounds like we have
01:47
six alarms all indicated that in the basement along with over 200 trouble alarms.
01:53
The security here says that they're still doing maintenance on the fire pump so that's still down.
02:00
I'll let you know if I hear anything else.
02:05
Can repeat that one about the fire pump?
02:14
I know there are due maintenance on the fire pump.
02:17
So the fire pump is down.
02:19
I know there's email sent out earlier this week, but they're still down.
02:27
Dropby, and you're saying commands in the basement?
02:30
1905, not to us that was one? Yes, too, is directly down in the basement.
02:34
That's the alarm panel.
02:37
1922 call out of it.
02:40
Pretty good.
02:46
I'll go up in the soon, Brian.
02:47
We had some type of equipment pump burn up in the basement.
02:51
There is no fire,
02:53
but we have a significant amount of smoke that we're going to have to evacuate out of here.
02:57
So we're probably going to need both trucks for sure, I think,
03:01
to figure how to get this smoke out of the basement.
03:08
Did I understand you say you've burned up the Faye burned up the fire pump?
03:16
Go ahead. I say I'd give you a tiny one.
03:20
If I understand correctly, you have a burned up fire pump motor, no fire.
03:29
It's some type of hydrolar pump down in weather utility spaces in the basement.
03:35
We'll need the truck gate and the other trucks to come on inside and we need to figure out a plan for getting smoke out of here.
03:46
Okay. Do you want to take it, sendage of nine backs?
03:52
Yeah, engine can go home, just into trucks to figure out how we're going to evacuate smoke.
03:56
Well, you know what, on second thought it probably wouldn't be a battery to keep them around just for manpower if we've got to start moving around the building open doors.
04:04
So let's just figure out a smoke evacuation plan first and then we'll make that decision.
04:12
Copy. You're working with my car.
04:13
We'll have a safe space.
04:17
