We're out here with the utility pole on fire between Kenyon and heat. This is going to be an extended incident. We're going to be, we have Mayfield Road shut down. Is it possible until I can get State out here to get us to road close lines? You guys could shut it down in Mayfield and Sparry. We can accommodate some small vehicles down Kenyon to Kim, but not the semis. Thank you. I'll roll out there right now. Good happy that, thank you. 3,400 to 04. I advise PD[1] they're going to block it off at Sperry and Mayfield. How many trucks do you have down there right now? We have four trucks. They're not the problem. It's people going around them. Although this truck just came through, I'm going to ask him. 22 to 3,400. Go ahead. I was going to say that white semi that's coming out now, I've been pointing all the trucks to go northbound. He went the other way, so if we can get directional signs, maybe for trucks to not take the cut through to the south. Copy that. 4 to 3,400. Chesterfire to Chesterpedee, if you can advise when you have Sperry shutdown at Mayfield, we're going to let just a few semis that we have down this direction clear our direction, but otherwise we'll keep it closed from there on.
