02:29
Okay,
02:30
give me a moment.
02:36
Engine 411.
02:39
Go ahead, Engine 411.
02:44
Okay, the odor in this building just has a musty or sewer type smell.
02:50
No odor of gas, no readings on the meters.
02:53
We do have moisture down on the terrace level in the stairwell.
02:59
I'm assuming from last night's rain.
03:01
Check the laundry room, all is clear.
03:05
I can go to the delta exposure right now.
03:08
We're going to have access over there.
03:13
I'm directing your findings, including the lower level.
03:16
Based on that, I think we can clear delta since we're going to be focused on efforts here in the alpha plaza and in the common hallway.
03:23
So you can disregard that exposure.
03:27
Okay, yeah, that's considered a good intent.
03:29
There's a lot of water in the stairwell.
03:34
Understood.
03:35
We'll scale back.
03:37
Fairfax and Southgate Drive command at 3329.
03:41
It's going to be a good intent call.
03:42
We do have water in the basement plus a power outage in the area.
03:45
No other hazards.
03:46
We'll terminate command, drop the channel.
