Engine one for me. The first one. Is there arcing lines or hanging power lines in the intersection of Grand M-13? We're continuing to get calls regarding lines in this area. We're at 1330. We're at 1330. There's no lines down that we can see on Grant. Are you? Are the callers saying they're in the back? Because there are power lines they go to between the yards to the east. The lines on the street or the lines at the back. The initial caller advised that this is going through this sparking that she was seeing was in front of her house, in front of the 1324. Caller since then has reported sparking in the area of 13th in Grand, and our most recent caller is reporting our or hanging lines in 13th and Grand area. We also have no traffic lights working for a span on Grand in this area as well. We'll loop around again. Take a look.
