Oh, that's where you can make them roll.

guys to pickups around these power lines.
00:20
As far as I know, the only person back is Perry.
00:23
If you want to go back to number one and send one guy in a pickup for some of these downlines, that's perfectly fine.
00:33
We're going to attempt to go to the high school and clear that fire alarm.
00:39
54 is clear.
00:42
Station 205 from 2054.
00:44
Is anyone there?
00:46
Station 205, Gwen in Helles looks like Fawcett is on his way.
00:55
Clear. If you want to take a pickup and just go check out the food co-op, we're going to try to get there.
01:01
Did you copy that traffic?
01:04
I didn't know.
01:05
You got a power line down over there?
01:08
Apparently their elevator went down, but they said they had a smell of electrical smell.

I'm guessing it's from our incident that we're on at Fifth and Bluff.

Central platform.

We're right there with you.

If you just want to add it to your list, the light at front and Genesee is out.
01:52
You don't need to set an officer there, just the list for Mnod, I guess.
01:56
I think they do the 41 lights.
02:02
If,
02:03
like,
02:05
the light is still up and attached and everything, it's just there's no power, is that my understanding?
02:14
That's a BLP issue.
02:18
We'll let them know.
02:19
Once they get power restored to the greater eastern half of Marquette County, I think we should be okay.
