It is going to be the exit from 495 south to Richmond Highway. We're going to have to flip around. It looks like it's down in the retention pond area. It does look like it's up against some kind of light pole.

Battian 408 for my SWATO 406. To access this, you're going to have to go up to the National Harbor. Flip around there.

Copy. I don't think they're going to be able to hit it either. I think Maryland is going to be the best units to be able to access this quickly.
