The closest hydrant is going to be a little bit ahead of us.

We're going to stop here in the excavator.

Okay.
03:35
1508, with that you can change your destination and go straight to center port.
03:40

It's contained on bare dirt.
03:47
The biggest challenge right now is just going to be access.

We're setting up ladders to get over the fence.
