But I was going to bring 388 up here, Jonathan.
01:03
I mean, they're burning. I've been smelling right here at the house the whole time.
01:05
I think they're just back in there burning, but you might just want to ride in there.
01:08
You don't be able to get in that brush truck.
01:12
All right, then, where I'll switch out.
01:16
Yeah, I've smelled it early this morning.
01:18
That's what it is.
01:19
I think they're just in the inner some burning.
01:21
So you might just want to drive that over and just ride in there and see what it looks like.
01:26
Yeah, then where I'm right at the back of the station is blowing pretty good.
01:31
If we ask it be our best way to get in there, just bring that over.
01:36
Will you ever gain access off the 11th Street?
01:40
Yeah, you can go in off 11th Street.
01:42
I was in there the other day with our ATP with a PD.
01:44
You take West 11th and go follow that in and go back to the right and you'll see if they've cut some new road jump.
01:50
There's two inches burning where they're putting in a drainage or correction where they're putting in the ponds.
01:55
And I think that's what it is.
01:58
You just want to have the engine staged or something.
02:03
Yeah, we're... Alex, if you face everybody's hands out,
02:06

02:48
We'll be on Oakland Ave with the K-9s.
02:53
Several.
03:00
John, they've got a road cut in back over here off Robert Rourke, where you can see where the smoke's coming from, we'd be able to get a brusher again if I needed to.
03:09
I can't remember I'm on AP.
03:11
That way, for the most of it.
03:15
Yeah, I know you're talking about Alex, but they've been running a bunch of heavy trucks and those big earth movers, so some of that's kind of swirly.
03:22
So we'll just look at 388 and we need to get the brush truck in there.
03:26
You can tell us the best path.
03:27
I went the other day and was pretty tore up on one of those roads.
