We don't really have an odor of gas in here, but it smells a little bit like something burnt, maybe some residual on the bottom of the oven.
00:06
The oven was turned on when we got in here.
00:09
We just turned it off.
00:15
All right, simple.
00:16
Do we need hazmat to continue just to check or do we cancel them, you think?
00:24
Ten-four, I think just given the history of this place, having tiny leaks, I'd say we just let them roll and let them check it out if you're good with that.
00:33
Yeah, ten-four, absolutely.
