Tell me where this near North Broadway call originated from
00:04
(name withheld), they called it in.
00:06
Okay, I copy.
00:07
You know a way to get a hold of them.
00:09
They're saying that it's a gas leak here.
00:11
It's not a gas leak.
00:12
The owner called, said they had a power outage.
00:15
We found a notice on the door for termination service.

If they're going to send somebody here, they need to send somebody from electric or have a representative call on the residence.

So, there's a representative who I have to call the owner that dwelling, or I advise them to call VG&E, but they did not get thrilled.

Yeah, I'll give him a call, but probably it will be best they gave him a call again.
00:50
I copy, I understand, but you may want to terminate that response for the gas, because there is no gas leak at that dwelling.

And just advise them that, that's what's a swaddle in there, that their power is off, and that's the reason.
