12 meter.
00:52
Four five, let me just get this straight again.
00:54
So there is a refrigerant leak active currently within the refrigerant plant, and there was a request directly from the refrigerant plant to the TMC to modify the fan orientation.
01:09
That is correct.
01:10
And the TMC confirms that none of the BMS systems are showing an active refrigerant leak with their alarms.
01:17
However, locally, per (name withheld) at the trailer plant, that's what they have is a local alarm.
01:25
All right, message received.
01:26
Well, our fire marshal, you on the air?
