00:00
Yeah, George, this is a mess down here.
00:02
The driveway's ate out really bad.
00:05
It's pushing up against the house, what (name withheld)'s old house.
00:10
The road is just blocked right off from the police station to (name withheld)'s old house.
00:19
You can't even get through.
00:20
Water's coming up out of the manhole cover.
00:24
I mean, it's coming down off the hill also from.
00:28
Where the old looks like (name withheld)'s driveway, get to the north of (name withheld)'s driveway.
00:38
Yeah, down where that pipe comes off of Colvin Ave.
00:44
Yes, exactly.
00:46
Is there any way you can call the state and get the state down here to see what they can do with this?
00:53
Okay, I'll give them a call.
00:55
Is there anything we can do? Is Keith down there with his sandbags or anything?
01:01
Nothing yet.
01:02
I think I seen him headed out out towards the landfill with the blue pickup truck.
01:08
I mean, we might be able to get a tandem load of stone and put it in the driveway to try to divert it.
01:14
But if you divert it too much, it's going to go into the front part of (name withheld)'s old house and it might blow that building apart.
01:24
Yeah, no.
01:26
Keys was going out to get some sandbags to try and divert it somewhere.
01:30
I'll give the state a call, see if they can head down that way too.
01:35
Okay.
01:38
Hey Harry, if you go the other way towards the port, just watch out.
01:42
(name withheld) just texted everybody, said there's like 2 ft of water going from the bottom of Church Street all the way to the bridge.
01:52
All right, that's probably because the catch basins up there are probably clogged.
01:55
But the catch basins aren't taking any water because they're full.
02:01
Oh, I'm sure.
02:02
I just wanted to let you know, just be careful if you were going the other way.
02:06
It's been a quarter somewhere.
02:08
C27 to C1.
02:11
One on.
02:14
Yeah, this road looks like it's collapsing down here.
02:18
Right across from (name withheld)'s driveway.
02:21
Not yet, but the water's running really hard in there and it looks like it's dropped.
02:27
144?
02:29
Yes, sir.
02:32
Okay, I called the state, nobody answered.
02:35
I left a message and they're.
02:36
Answer a machine to have him get down there by 64 Main.
02:40
See what was going on.
02:43
All right, we're going to go out and see if we can help Keith with some bags.
