Is it north of the dam or south of the dam? South of the dam on our side of the river. Attention. Troopsie officers responding to standby 529. The units responding to the aircraft down. The Coast Guard is now advising that it is south of the dam. Alton fire is on scene and has confirmed that the fire is out. However, there are still live wires in the water. Coast Guard still states that we need to do a one-mile perimeter at this time. 529, go ahead with your traffic. In the evacuation from along the river's side, quite the visual on the situations from the Club Bridge. Okay, 529.29. Most of your traffic was broken, copy that you do not have a visual from the Clark Bridge. To me further west, I'm evacuated from the river's edge. The area of Riverlands Way evacuated at this time. Until we can confirm that the bridge is not a mile. Let's keep it shut down just in case. And then I'll get on scene. I'll try to do some figure and see where we're at. S. 1393, do you need any other resources heading your way? See if the Coast Guard can provide a GPS coordinate of where they're at. And then if you could run a... a search to see how far the bridge is from that. I appreciate it. We'll get the Coast Guard to give us the GPS.
