1014 fire still block in HV 1 and 2 10 fire 10 fire 9 medical 10 40 14 14 go ahead yes sir we are noticing a little bit more of fire behavior that is starting to push down and out Since we have over in the neighborhood to the north-west of me. Copy that. It won't be a bad idea. Copy that. Operations from command, we have only one engine over in that direction. We can probably move a couple of these engines over on... our side or at least maybe one to go help over there. This is Engine 22 Affirmative. We just ask, we do have the dozer. It's all ready to go. Guy's in it's ready to cut any line you need. Let's pull that trigger. Let's get that dozer moving. I'm trying to position a break behind those homes just being on the face. Three dozer blades lied with this steel tight. And our dozer's tied up on our flanks, so let's get that dozer moving. Command, do you want those three dozer blades? Do you want them on the perimeter of the fire, or do you meet them just so that's 300 feet from the structure? Is that what you're saying? line and this seal attack. So you're going to want to put a break in between the structures and the Dozer and the fire line and tie it into this two track that we're on. So I'm not up there. So if that Dozer operator just have them go around the structures, push it to the south and tie it in to the two track that's up here. I have tie in with Division Alpha and he'll give you some direction on what they're looking at up there. Operations South Division fire three. Go ahead, Jeremy. We're talking up here. We do have a drainage up here, so as of now I need that dozer, but he will be indirect until we figure it out. I want to interact those lines behind those houses and tied into that through track if possible to keep it from impacting those structures. If we get an available type 1, let's get them over into that other subdivision. I don't know exactly what that subdivision. If you have a spare type 1, let's get them over there. We have them all in place, but we're pretty heavy on this side. I think we can spare one. Yeah, you can spare one. We've got some time. We've got a deal with you there, so I think it should buy us some time. Two, an engine three. I think brush two is with them. We have Ladder 21 with us, and then we have Corinne and Vauxhilder County at the other subdivision south of us. Down there on what's best, so just make a decision and let me know. Subdivision at 3250 north and whatever east that is towards the southeast. part, and we're the only two up in this area just for your information. Right now, do you have a lot of vegetation right there by them houses? No, it dies off. We've got probably six inches grass for areas and some sagebrush, but it's backed from these houses quite a ways, so if it did race up here to the edge, it's not still a pretty good... line before it gets to the house of grass and gravels and stuff. We've got a hydrant hooked, we have not charged it yet. Probably. and they're both over there in that subdivision. I think we better keep both of them there with the way that's pushing off the hill. See that. Structure division, did you copy that? Can you send us one of the other engines closer this way? It's closer to the west towards 1050. I think if you want to take one, so what do you think about engine two? They're closer to us on 1050, correct? Affirmative. They're just the next street over. That will you let them know and also coordinate that with engine 22 on an address of where they need to go? Copy. Would you copy that traffic engine too? and address where you need to go. You're going to go up with the engine 22 and they're farther north about where you're at. You can probably see the water or spray in right now. We copy that. What issue we're going to have is that there's LVH supplying ladder 21 that's going to have to be shut down and moves for us to get there.
