This is unmarked, it may be at Stralita, but it's off with 3N50, and the gate is marked with the address number. We'll grab the road right shoulder.

Additionally, what resources in total just for awareness do we have responding to 27?

I copy the fire has the most potential for the street as well as residents. I'm going to get with the IC[1]ANN place a significant resource order here shortly. A hazard is going to be high-touch power lines in front of the head of the fire and also PG&E ships working south of the incident up the river canyon.
04:28
I got that cheap. I only have a water truck here. I don't have anybody else here. I got a PGD. Looks like one of their crews is trying to work something. I don't have any contact with him. You want me to try to go get them and have it come up to you. That's all I got. Okay, I copy. Well, Pete, you can come up the Cain driveway and try and hold that driveway. That would help even if they, yeah. Like it said, the water tender up with that driveway. He's got sprayers on it. Take him.
