Alright, we walk down to the power lines, approximately about 70 yards so right across from where our steel road comes out.
00:08
There's a bay clearing here.
00:09
We can bring Argo in this way and come down the trail.
00:12
We did the Argo to QRS. Probably going to be Argo to the past because there's a lot of deep pools of water.
00:19
We'll keep both coming just in case.
00:23
Tops.
00:26
I'll pick me. Just find it.

Do they want the Argo to remove a patient or do they want the gator?

The request in the Argo.

Okay.
00:41
We got to switch it over for a patient.

Proceed.

12127-11 Fireboard. Key store area of fire fleets to the intersection of Steel River in Chesapeake City, where we've got one lane, pretty well block.
01:43
Do you want them to shuttle traffic on one land or want to shut down Tessissippi between steel road and fraser?
01:51
If we can shut it down during the operation, that'd be great.
01:59
Also, squad 21st officer.
02:02
I've been listening to communications and listening to your exit strategy.
02:06
Through a lot of overhead mapping, street viewing.
02:10
Wested there with the power lines or inaccessible to vehicles based on the street view due to concrete pillars.
02:16
They have to drag out of way.
02:18
Other than after there's the access just west of Fraser Road. Just not sure how far you'd be able to back to where you are.
02:28
So the access across from Steel Road has concrete pillars.
02:33
Based on the street view that's up currently on Google, there are two concrete jersey barriers that are blocking vehicular access and have to be moved.
02:45
Very second.
