Go up for 38.

If you want to keep working your way this way to the front, there's a hydrant right by the front door.

An engine one five.
00:23
One file, go ahead.

00:46
And Ladder 12.
00:49
Line 12, go ahead.

I let Bravo zoom with the panel. Elph is going up to the fourth floor and that's getting a permit.
00:58
After you split.
01:04
Command engine 38.
01:06
38. Yeah,
01:09
if you're good with it, we'll level one right here,
01:12
we're not going to clog up this intersection here, but if we need it, we've got this hydrant to my right.
01:23
And then there's another one over there by the tower, or the ladder as well.
01:27
So if you guys want to go all in and give my hand?
01:34
Stand, Ladder's close.
01:39
I got a burnt food like haze on four.
01:43
Can you start high rise packs up here?
01:46
Copy burnt food, haze on four. You want high rise pack?
01:54
Another 12 world grab those high-rise packs for you. We're just waiting to clear some of this traffic.
02:00
Be right in.
02:03
Got you.
02:07
Randy 1-Gidja-15. We're coming in from the south. We're making our way through this traffic.
02:12
Command engine 15. You want us to level one here or head up to the fourth floor.
02:19
Just go up to the panel.
02:21
I know that there's been some challenges here and you've been working through them.
02:26
Kathy, I'll go to the on panel.
02:31
Mattiello, Bravo.
02:37
Control Bravo, go ahead.
02:39
Yeah,
02:40
we were just at the panel, it's just in supervisory, there's no active alarm.
02:46
Cut.
02:51
12-engine 38?
02:54
Go ahead.
02:57
We're in the west stair wall on floor three.
03:03
Do you guys have any need for horizontal, or do you want us to come help you guys search?
03:09
Yeah, if you could leave them there, come up the west stair and start,
03:13
follow your nose.
03:14
We're pounding on doors trying to get people open to figure out where it's at.
03:17
We've been unsuccessful so far. We're closer to the east stairs.
03:25
38, 12-al alpha.
03:28
So for 38.
03:30
Can you pop your head in on three and see if there's any odor on three before you come up?
03:35
We did, there's no odor on 3.
03:38
We're going to be here on 4.
03:46
12 alpha, 38 alpha.
03:49
We're at 2439.
03:52
Where are you guys in relationship to that unit?
03:59
I think we're straight east. Do you? We're at 2402.
04:07
Copy that. We'll work that way.
04:09
It seems like a pretty light haze. Is it stronger in your area or do you want us to continue going down some of these corridors back here?
04:19
And we're guessing we think it's stronger in an area, but we haven't found anything. So if your nose is better than mine, follow it.
04:27
Okay, I'll try and rule out areas that it's not, and then I'll report back which units we've looked into.
04:36
Copy, thanks.
