Yeah, that's pretty far out of our jurisdiction.
02:04
And if no extrications needed, we're not going to be sending an engine company.

And if we can verify that AMR is going to be dispatching a unit from the Apache Junction side, we're going to cancel our tunnel basin units from going that far end.

If you can please confirm that your release convenience, I'd appreciate it.
02:24
And, for sure, I just realized when my walk about it was going to be, I'll call DPS back and advise they need to dispatch another agency that is way out of our jurisdiction.

Yeah, that's affirmative for EMS purposes.
02:37
That'll be AMR, I believe, on that side.

If you can confirm that they, with AMR, they have a unit responding and let us know, then we'll cancel our units that are slow rolling that way.
