Command, engines have a no answer from the main instructor on itself.
00:09
Okay, if you want to check, if they have maybe an alternate person, not that'd be great, or we can have, uh, if that's trying to call as well, maybe they're screening.
00:21
Yeah, I have phone numbers, I'll make another call.
00:27
Okay, thanks.

Command engine three, some of the staff inside they're working on as well.

Chopin. And from the inside, how many people are displaced right now or are moved to another wing? Do we know? I'm in West Chofield Avenue, Unit D, David.

00:54
Command Engine 8, it sounds like we've moved,
00:59
they're still trying to figure out the number, but between 11 and 16 to a different wing.
01:06
Okay, and based on the conditions we're seeing now, just confirm we should be able to put them back in.
01:12
They just may not have HVAC, that correct?
01:17
A-firm. I've also, with Engine 3 and Engine A, both reset the panel.
01:25
We're not getting any further alarms.
01:27
We're just getting a system trouble.
01:31
Okay, that's great, thanks.
01:43
It's just double checking.

Go ahead.
03:30
Just for an update, we believe we have the hazard mitigated.
03:33
At this point, our priority is going to be making sure that there's no hazard in the building, and then we'll be turning it back over to ownership and have them check out what's likely an HVAC issue.
03:45
You can go ahead and discontinue the ticker.
03:52
And the hazards mitigated and make sure there are other hazards in the building and then we'll turn back over.
