Water main break causes water on Danby Road
Heard on:
Tompkins County Fire/EMS
03:01
00:00
There's water in the roadway from looks to be an active water main break.
00:05
I assume the town knows about it, but I have nothing we can do from here.
00:14
Engine three, street came up that way.
00:18
Ten four. From the outside here on the Danby Road side, it seems like that's the only place that has a flashing strobe.
00:29
Yeah, affirmative.
00:30
That's intermittent throughout the building.
00:32
There's some areas that do have flashing strobes and horn sounding, others that don't.
00:41
Sounds like there's a system issue.
00:46
Yep.
00:48
System will not reset.
00:50
Keeps saying it's been aborted.
00:55
Says it's been aborted.
00:58
Hey, affirmative.
01:04
One, did you find the sprinkler room?
01:12
Negative.
01:16
All right, let's let's find that.
01:20
Let's try that again and see if that gives us any more clues on to what's going on.
01:29
Copy. We're gonna go drop our tools off at the engine and try to locate that.
01:34
10-4. Will the alarm at least take a silence so we can look around more?
01:45
Only the system silence.
01:46
The other part will not silence.
01:53
Four hundred and one from 800 and sixty-five.
01:58
Roger five.
02:01
If (name withheld) doesn't need anything from you, you can return.
02:05
I am going to continue and make contact with him.
02:11
Copy that.
02:16
Tompkins 879.
02:22
Good.
02:26
Did you get anything specific from the caller on if they were smelling sewage or kind of what it was? We're aware of the main leak, just want to make sure it wasn't anything else.
02:39
All we got from the caller was that the smell was kind of like a light sewage smell, but she was unsure.
02:51
Copy that, thank you.
02:54
Just as a heads up, there is a water main break.
02:57
It is leaking into the roadway a little bit.
02:59
Not a hazard, and the town is aware of it.
