Battalion 1, Firecombe. I'm on line with Water Tech who was called out. Do you have any updates for them? Yeah, we just found a sprinkler control box full of water at the property of Dr. Jindwood's apartment complex near 72nd Ave. This appears to be a sprinkler problem. Not sure why it's coming out of the ground 100 yards down the street. Copy. He's going to go out there and take a look. We are marking the box and there's a cone at the entrance to the area. We'll also mark the curb where it's coming out of the ground, which is fairly obvious. Thank you. 15 minute, EPA. Copy that. This does not appear to be an emergency. We're not going to remain on the scene.
