I still have a pole burning at 283 Route 519.

00:03

Do we have an ETA on JCP&L?

Stand by.

Callback, no answer, no cat history for the number.

00:39

Received.

00:46

Chief, can I just confirm your location? I'm showing 283 Pond as the front of the plant facility.

00:57

Yes, the pole is all the way down in the back.

01:07

All right, it looks like they did not contact JCP&L now, but the pole was down by the solar farms.

01:23

It is, but at 305, I believe that's where they connect to JCP&L, and that runs all the way back to behind the plant.

01:49

Do you have state troopers out here still? Just to verify if they called DCB already or whether I need to mark a new ticket.

01:59

County, I have not seen a state trooper.

02:00

I didn't see anybody at 305, and I have nobody here at the plant facility.
