Engine 33 this much. You can show me on the scene. I do have a facility pole that has been obviously struck by a vehicle. There's no vehicle here, but the pole is almost broken in half. There's no wires down, and I have a poll number for you when you're ready. Go ahead.

The poll number is 6357544. It's important. It was PSE to do Goodwell or TECO. Copy that. If the power company has been noted by, there's no actual hazard right now. The pole is still holding up the power lines above.

So we're going to be complete as long as you turn this over to them so they can locate the pole and obviously have to take it out and replace it. That's not permanent. We did TOT[1] it to the electric company. They put a ticket in for it. Copy that. If you receive any additional calls, then obviously it's been dealt with and they'll be on their way. Thank you. Show me complete. So far. You're welcome. Complete.
