I don't know if it was Pallie 1 or Battalion 2.
04:18
This is just a...
04:24
Just give me enough, what we got.
04:28
At the end of the storage, we've got about a five-acre facility here.
04:33
In the gravel park lot, there was a pipe that was sticking up with a PSI meter on it.
04:38
That was it.
04:39
It is currently leaking gas.
04:42
There's nobody within the complex up here.
04:45
At the gate and got that cordoned off, natural gas is about 20 minutes out.
04:55
Todd, you copy, this is a net for gas between the south.
04:58
Do you have a corded off no bailson site?
05:01
Do we have any need for hazmat for monitoring or can we handle with the units that currently on the call?
05:11
I think with what we got here, we've got our monitor, which we're kind of just peeking around to see how we do have any gas moving at this point.
05:19
I don't think we need hazmat.
05:21
And at this point, I think we can cancel that other engine.
05:23
Let's you see these three free support.
05:29
I copy that with our monitor.
05:31
It looks like we have engine 5 and you and me is the time to responding to the call.
05:40
That's affirmative.
05:46
5, the command.
05:50
We're just arriving.
05:54
Yeah, we'll just stay out on 72nd and let's take, see if you get any readings on the street there.
06:04
So I'm going to try to give you a good idea of where this gas leak is that.
06:09
We've got a whole bunch of units between 72nd and the gas lake, but I just want to see if this is moving to the west or not.
06:17
So stand by, let me try to get you good locations.
06:23
Agent 5 copy, we're going to stay parked on 113th Street.
06:27
I'm familiar with this complex, I know where the gravel lot is,
06:32
so I'll just stay out here and monitor from the outside.
06:36
Okay, perfect, and yeah, just go on the west side of that area.
06:41
Now,
06:42
let me know if you get any gas ready.
