Eight thousand 509 is on scene. Eight thousand 509, I'll have the man stand by for walk around. Got you, I am saying 8509. Dispatch, if you can get SOU to stop near Johnson Road. Stop all traffic from coming this way. They're stopping on that area. Do you know where they are? Liberty Road and 25 or Saddle Club and 25. EPA has been notified that they're going to be en route. Going to be a strictly defensive attack. Structure's roof is collapsing. It's that I've got a live power line on the ground. Cannot get to the meter base, so all units be advised of that live power line on the grass. This radio unit has a 20-minute ETA. The old map D1—it’s going to be all the way down here at (name withheld)’s old house. Stop before the structure. We're probably going to have to lay a line back so we can turn trucks around. The structure is on the ground, but about half an acre behind it is on fire. Homeowner here has an excavator, trying to contain the fire so crews can manage the site.
