Dispatch and Brush and 22, can you add Utility 22[1] to this call and they're already responding?(name withheld). Point 2 has arrived. We have fire on the full-off. It's an unknown size approximately 30 by 30 from my advantage point. Not threatening any houses at this point. Engine 22[2] will have Crawford Command[4] and will have fire attack. Engine 22 copies fire on the Bluff and unsigned approximately 30 by 30. It's not threatening any houses. Engine 22 has Crawford Command and Fire Attack[3]. Come in, Brow Unit 22. Are you still thinking Edgewater is our best access for brush unit and utility? If you guys want to do Edgewater and try to get some better eyes on it, it's burning up to the dog park here and it's a lot of good stop, so we'll be able to stop from the top if you can get the eyes on from the bottom. Pritching in 22 o'clock. 26, I see you arrive in. We're sitting on a hydrant. If you want to bring up your wildland dive or stretching a line down, and they'll extend their line around the fire. 26 copy-up with that wildlife. 1356 (name withheld) 4-4 Charlie's Psych Transport, Serenity Residential Care near Powell Room Number 225 Opsline. If that's a minute 22, you start an additional engine code free. CopyCorp the engine. I need some update. We got maybe two foot flame lengths with a slow rate of spread. Not one is that good at this time. engine code 3 to this brushfire on the hillside across from near North Crawford Street switch shops channel 6 at 213517 medic 330 party 2 Charlie Stroke 143 55 north by the lake court at the hope center it's on ops 1 2136 Engine 22B from Command, if you're able to give me an update on which to see over there from the flow up just on size and how far this is gone. And from Engine 22B, we're getting good knocking. Yeah. We may be having issues getting to the very bottom near the railroad system. He's rushing 22 and utility 22 are making their way down to that point at this time. Yeah, command from engine 26. It looks like the fire is approximately 200 by 200 right now, and it is going all the way down, looks like, to the railroad tracks from our advantage. For me a copy, it looks like we have a pretty good stuff on the head of it up here, so that looks correct on your side. 7 medic 345, a party 2 delta breathing problem. 1 415, southeast 1-22 Avenue at the shelter. Patient will be inside the lobby. Ops 1, 2138. T2138. C2's ragged, uh, C2, but I assume the Bluff command. Engine 20 keep going to come back, will join me for a second. (name withheld) 209. Truck 8 from Command Night, I called you as a precautionary in case it was going uphill towards any of the homes. I'm going to have you continue here, but I'll just have you stage out there on Crawford once we get a good read. It sounds like it's going downhill, which that's a good thing. Truck 8, copy. Engine 22, I'll give you operations, since you'll be got the best eyes on it, and then I'll be in command here and let me know what we need to do to get this thing to go. Copy the technology. Yeah, go. All companies, we've got a water supply engine 22, so we're good on water as far as aren't our lines on the top side. Can you identify who that was trying to speak? Utility Truck, 22. Truck 2. Truck, utility 22, you guys came back with a lot of backfeed. Can you try again on your transmission? Yeah, you're completely unreadable, unless I think I'm hearing you tell me we've got maybe two separate fires going. We do have a secondary fire where the, uh, behind, where bus unit 22 came down, and where utility trailer is parked by the other trailer, so where the railroad tracks cross. Okay, copy that. Are we being able to address that, or do you need an engine to come down? Is that edgewater you guys went down? This looks like it's about a 20 by 30 wall fire that we addressed with the utility trailer. It sounds like you can address it. Engine 6, as you look up on the map here, when you come up on the bluff, I'd like you to head the edgewater there, right by the tavern there. and head down there for my engine to go down that road and you can kind of assist with utility 22. The command from engine 26, it looks like we got a pretty good stop on the fire on basically the southeast ridge. That's designate the one that we got to stop on is Crawford since that's what we're parked on up here and then we'll work on getting that one that utility 22 is addressing

Brush fire near North Decatur Street in Portland

N Decatur St, Portland, OR 97203

Go ahead. The bladders on the brush—do we need anything else from that? We'll just bring all four of us on track with the bladders. The hand tools from the brush unit were very effective for getting this put out, and the saw with the green chain on it—if it's on the brush unit we may need to drop a tree again. I don't know what we're going to need yet, so we're trying to gain access.
