We've got gas secured all four dryers, all set off at the time. All mean maintenance down here in Manhattan is the two calendar now and I want this to clear it out. We're down to about 160 plus-fillion a CO in the larger field and we'll work for eight for the rest of the basement. All right, copy. I'll make sure we get staff over there so you can just give them a heads up on what we got going on. If you want to work with ladder eight, we'll start working on a ventilation plan for down there. for a entering center. Go ahead. CO levels are dropping rapidly in the stairwell. We're about to go under 10. All right, copy. Once we're done with our ventilation operation, I would like to start up the top floors work our way down, make sure we're good to go on all those floors. You're 14 copies. We are at the low age at the top of the farewell, so we'll start walking the floor, starting at 12. All right, commanding copy. Command engine 11. 11's in the lobby. Okay, I know originally when we arrived on the scene, do you know if staff, if anybody pulled a building fire alarm to help with the evacuation? They were asked to and never did. They've been calling people and we just kicked them out. Also, FYI, the kitchen and lobby is at 20 parts a million. We're doing natural ventilation right now. Command Copy. Support 8 is working with engine 3 out on the A side of the building to ventilate that stairwell as well. Once we're done with that, they may be able to redirect that fan to the lobby if needed.
