Going out. In 1937, (name withheld) gave us I-7 Eastbound near 67.7 for dark smoke in the area. The only information they could give us, they were passing by on the highway there. No control burn shown in the area, but there are several priors for control burns at 20240 Riley-Wain right off of the highway there. Hold there, we open a quarter, I got to report as a control burn out there. I'll check it up. Greasy. All responding fire 1613, EMS, the personnel going to the outdoor smoke and investigation, I-78. First 1651, all units pulled a quarter versus possible control burn, 1939. Okay, 13, if I will use the quarters of them. 50. 50 like that. If it's in my vicinity, I am burning a controlled burn in my backyard. That's what I figured I'm just going to stop. How quick?
