Good, 25.
00:02
Are we at the end of that feeder for the bench?
00:04
Nope, we've probably got 100 feet left.
00:06
You still need to come up the hill?
00:07
No, we'll just take that last length, and that's it.
00:09
We can split up once we get the manifold.

Let us know when the break and fill the feeder from 48.

Very good.
00:40
Cartin operations to command.
00:42
Go ahead, John.
00:43
Once you get a water supply to engine 55, can you have an available company run a line right about 300 feet into the woods here?
00:51
The perimeter of this fire is starting to light up again.
00:54
We used to soak it down real well here.
00:56
Okay, very good.

01:08
Okay, just give us another minute if you'll get your call.
01:10
All right, you're on 48.
01:12
We call 48.
01:13
Car 9-2 operations, we have a water supply on this side of the NACA.
01:19
Enter 49, engine 48.

The engine 49 ain't calling it, it's 48.
01:44
What are you there, sir?
01:45
Yeah, you guys are at the end of the thing, so when you guys get water, let me know what you got some pressure.
01:50
What are you trying to one of the lines from the bus unit?
01:51
H1 to operations.
01:53
Operations.
01:54
Okay, John, I guess 48 has a water supply.
01:59
They have a manifold all the way up there.
02:01
They have their line.
02:02
They're coming in off with Enniching.
02:03
49th brush cut up as close as he can to Enokin.
02:07
Hitting fire momentarily,
02:08
and it looks like FI3 brought up to the top of the hill is going to do our right, too.
02:13
So it looks like we're getting this thing together.
02:15
The DCI rep said that the ground is very dry, so use copious and onto water, otherwise we'll be back here tonight.
