Yes, sir. I know we've got that controlled burn on 167, kind of up there,
00:06
near New Prospect.
00:09
When y'all get a minute, could somebody just make a pass up there? I've had like three people called in the last like 10 minutes saying that there's a car on the side of the road with its flashers, and it looks like there's a fire going pretty good in the woods.
00:24
I know that's the area for our controlled burn that was called in.
00:29
But if y'all wouldn't mind, would you just check on them when you get a chance?
00:36
We got it. We'll head up there.

That fire was going to be north of Dubot, not near New Brunswick.

low fire there.

No, if you just make a pass up the highway, I just make sure we don't have a random fire going we don't know about.
