3-1[1] and 6643. 3-1, you got the rest of the city. Stay on the road. Clear on it. Second one, Tom. Okay, man. Have the small case off, the 9-inch, and take that up to the fence where they're working, see if that will help them get access to that Delta side.

Good. We have one call now in the area of Highland projects for a report of some heavy smoke in the area. Would that be consistent with the wind direction from your guys' fire? Probably, but if you want to have 422[2] to investigate there, they should be in the city or close, I can investigate that. Okay, all right, we'll do.

422[2] Barry, Barry, that's 9-11. Barry in 1420, were you calling us? Can you check the area of Highland Projects, near Highland Avenue? We're getting reported some heavy smoke in the area, unknown cause. I believe it's possibly related to the garage fire on vineyard, but I'm certain.

Street again? Just used to the M139 or MLK Pilot Projects. Okay, thank you. Stand Alpha. Go ahead. All right, I'm confident with a couple of New York Coast long ones in the corner, they can probably just pull down the Delta side because cutting is not getting anywhere.

Sancto City and Benton Harbor Patrol, maybe just try grabbing some hooks and see if you can just pull that down, just try to collapse it instead of, the saws aren't doing much at all. All right, affirmative, sir. Truck 322 can head that way.
