00:41
Again, no exposures to any other buildings are a problem.
00:44
We'll try the bulk of this is knocked down.
00:47
All right, agreed.
00:49
We'll just continue to work with Alpha.
00:50
They've got a line drawn on the Alpha side, so we'll just try and make sure that it works on your guys' side, too, that we're not, like, missing things in the communication, okay?
01:02
Top 1 and 34 from command, make sure you don't open up.
01:07
That part of the building, I have companies interior working, and I have exterior companies,
01:13
so I'm not at your right? I'm just going to hold you there.
01:20

You're going to call in.
01:36
This is Heavy Rescue 51.
01:37
We just checked Division 1 for any kind of horizontal spread between floors.
01:42
The floor's always are open web.
01:44
So you do have a chance.
01:46
You might take all the Division 1 apartments for any kind of spread in between floors.
01:50
All right. So talking about the structure,
01:54
we put a bunch of water on it.
01:57
Is there any sagging? I mean, structure really, am I okay?
02:04
On the Alpha, Bravo Corner Apartments, everything's good down here.
02:07
I can't speak for the rest of it.
02:08
I haven't been over there.
02:12
All right, give me a favor and I'd like you to just do a structural assessment.
02:17
Let me know where I'm going to be good or where we need to draw lines and maybe put the caution take up.
02:27
Like I said, the construction on this thing fails quick, so be cautious in your assessment.
02:35
Have your rescued?
02:36
We'll be checking all the Division 1 departments real quick.
02:40
All right, thank you.
02:44

02:47
Go ahead.

02:53
Our biggest concern are now some attendees on the Charlie side,
02:57
as long as we're going to hit them direct with the aerial.
02:59
They're holding stay right now.
03:01
Everything else is okay from the exterior.
03:05
Come here, Steve, thank you.
03:06
Yeah, I'm trying to communicate, you know, make sure the letters know where we got people operating with handlines and where they're good to go.
03:16
I'm getting ready to put a...
03:18
I'm getting ready to put somebody up on the 37s stick since they're really the only truck that's flowing.
03:25
Really for the full purpose is just making sure that they're hitting where fire is actually at, and since we do have units operating so close and we are getting such catastrophic failures on the structure,
03:36
it's really just more of an abundance of caution, but I just want to make sure that we actually have eyeballs up there that we're not sending water where I don't want it to go.
03:48
One from Charlie.
