We have you do some recon for me.
05:02
Give me a 360 of the building.
05:04
See if you can find a gas shutoff valve.
05:08
And let me know if you find it and then we'll probably take care of that as well.
05:13
Copy, we're going to head to the south then.
05:15

05:16
I'll give me a good idea to get to that.

Okay.

06:08
It's just around the corner.
06:09
I'll have him go with engine 216.
06:13
They said shutting off the gas would not do anything catastrophic.
06:17
Everything is should be shut down right now.
06:19
Okay, copy that.
06:21
We have an RP that seems to know the building system.
06:23
He's going to hook up of engine 216 over here on my east side and help them to secure the gas.

Just give a report of any smells you might encounter or any systems you might need to shut off.

Morning copies. We're going to get a good look at the A and the P-side made you know of any kind of hazards to be done.
07:20
I go.
07:23
Phoenix Fire just called if I set engine 272 is requesting an additional hazmat unit because of the size of the building.
07:32
Would you like us to add another one on?
07:34
And you're at 20 minutes of an hour.
07:45
Okay, now it sounds like the RP is saying the gas shot off as closest to you, so why don't you work with that RP? He should be a gentleman in a black t-shirt, black pants,
07:55
and he seats to know where to shut the gas off on that side.
08:00
We met up with him.
08:01

Okay, just to clear that up, we have the wrong side of the building.
08:18
The RPs with Engine 220, they're shutting the gas off now.
08:21
But go ahead and complete your assignment and report any findings.
08:27
