Do you notice any directional boring in the area on your way in?

Sir, we're not finding anything yet.
00:11
We've gone north, south, east, and west.
00:13
We're going to check this Antero Apartments complex quickly, but so far nothing else, sir.
00:20

00:21
And Engine 23, Hazmat 14 just got off the phone with utilities.
00:24
They're not aware of any operations going on.
00:26
They do have some gas distribution techs headed to the area to investigate because they've received a lot of complaints as well.
00:36
Hasn't received.
00:38
I see two.
00:41
52, go ahead.
00:42
Yeah, would you share that information that you just gave to Engine 8 to all of us? I think Engine 23 is probably closer.
00:49
Affirmative, all units for 52.
00:51
I'm in the area. I was flagged down by someone who lives off of Irving Drive.
00:55
Said they had a very strong odor of gas when they opened their garage door and I'm heading that way now.
01:04
I'm not picking up anything in the Meadows area.
01:06
23, okay. We haven't come up with anything yet.
01:12
Been to the north, south, east, and west.
01:14
Going through another quick sweep in Youngbrook on a call that's unfounded.
01:19
And responding companies, we also got a message from C-Med One driving through the area.
01:23
They are smelling it as far west as Union and Shasta off of Fountain Boulevard.
01:30
Wake up, we need a Chasta.
01:32
Battalion two received.
01:34
Just back to you, go ahead and attach battalion two to this call if you would.
01:37
Also, how many utilities do we have responding?
01:41
They didn't advise how many they have.
01:43
They do have techs on the way, but if you could just call back, we can.
01:47
I would, yeah.
01:48
It sounds like if you would call and just the scope of the issue sounds pretty widespread once we track down where this leak is coming from.
01:55
But if you'd let them know that, please.
01:57

02:02
No odor at all.
02:04
52 from Battalion 2, do you have the address of the person you talked to that had that gas smell in their garage?
02:12
It'd be good to get a unit over there.
02:15
Yeah, he did not give me his address.
02:17
He just said he lives on Irving Drive.
02:19
He says not in the house, but definitely outside when he opened his garage door it hit him pretty strong.
02:26
But I just drove that whole street and there's no odor out here.
02:31
Received.
02:33
