Go ahead engine 4. Down power lines on a long private drive. No apparent fire at this time. You can hold the assignment to 4. And I'll give you an update shortly. Thank you, sir. Can base holding all units to 5th Engine 4 at the scene. Engine 4 has the scene, 751. Base for Engine Fork. Kim, Base from Engine 4. And, there's several hundred feet of primary down on the ground that's still active. It just gets pulled off the transformer on the pole closest to the house. There's a slight smell of smoke down here, nothing's showing. We can not get fire up, right this down close to the house because it would be crossing the primary. Base range report. Clear engine port. If you'll update Eresource, the last competent pole is number 438. That's where the primary is still attached, but on the ground after that. and every source is on their way. This is completely on private property, but again secure the driveway and we'll be good there.
