Again, she has broken English, but we will try to communicate with her.
00:21
We're not seeing any flames, all of the poles,
00:25
everything looks good, all up and down railroad at this point, so I don't think we're going to have an emergency down here.
00:33
You can go ahead send a 1022 page.
00:35
We'll leave Rescue 1, 609 and engine 1 on scene until we hear back to you guys.
00:47
Everyone, can we come at you and read?
00:54
Just hold a crowd at 341.

Home in front of the gate, near the gate to the chicken house.

Copy-Night case, we've already been through there.

We'll go back down and give them one more look, but we just came from that area looking at those polls.

The nearest pole is almost right in front of this burn property that we were here on about a month ago.
01:47
There is no fire.
01:49
There are some limbs, but they're not touching the power lines at this point.
01:55
There's another citizen that lives a little further down the road that says his power has blinked on and off.
02:00
This is definitely going to be a SWEPCO issue.
02:03
We have no fire, no risk of fire at this time, so all D6 units will be clearing the scene and return to service.
02:09
But if you would... just let SWEPCO know we were out here and they're probably needed in the area.
02:25
Yes, ma'am.
02:26
If you would, just advise Swepco.
02:29
The fuse is burning out right now on this line.
02:32
As we're getting ready to pull off, we saw it.
02:36
Swepco will be needed at this location.
02:38
It will be the house just before you get to the Waggley private property where the chicken house are located.
02:45
And if you'll stand, I'll give you a poll number.
02:49
Ten four.
02:52
Copy. That poll number is going to be a SWEPCO poll 522-018.
