Calling parties change, active transformer fires.
02:01
Don't know what size of these transformers and don't know how much oil is involved.
02:05
There's no leader lines down from the transformer, so there's no lines down in the area as a guest.
02:11
I advise the calling party to move back to the area.
02:17
Copy that, sir, thanks.
02:19
You're going to get me.
02:30
They're going to give me a call back on there.

03:17
Great.
03:39
Is that exactly where?

Nothing currently showing.
03:48
The case farmer right by the bike trail.
03:51
The caller was on the bike trail looking at it.
04:03
Nothing active showing currently? What about?
04:09
It looks like it was coming directly from behind near East Street.
04:13
Also, Eversource this call.
04:15
They're going to send a full crew out.
04:17
They were...
04:18
...have been notified that it is inside the substation.
04:21
They're on their way.
04:37
We're not going to be anything down there.
04:42
It's negative, sir.
04:47
Just that's nine please.

This is a different.
04:53
Yes,
04:56
sir, if you're supposed to have ourselves again.
04:58
Their monitoring is monitoring on their system and an accident incident or fire.
05:05
These cause it in the area and you're going to be able to be.
05:10
Aver.
05:33
Possibly 2 p.m.
05:34

05:39
I'm not sure if that is exactly what we're talking about is not a depressive area.
05:44
So again, no point showing.
