If that's easier for Abbott.

00:45
He's warming up with a truck now.
00:48
The question was, is the vehicle able to be moved or are we waiting for it before Eversource gets there? Trying to let them make the judgment on if it's safe to move.

Let Avenue, we'll have Eversource make that call first.

Sixth County, I'm going to have a shutdown at 3A and Charlotte, because otherwise they can come back into the 3A.

It's six, sorry, it was on the fire channel.
01:50
You're saying you're going to do 3A at Charlotte?
01:55
Yes, 3A and Charlotte, I'll shut it down.
02:03
Or let me know if you need any assistance from State Highway.
02:10
If they have someone that could come down just to set up barricades at some point where Lincoln 6 is just to route traffic that way, it's only two of us on and I don't know how long the resource is going to be once they get out here.
02:24
Well, I guess like,
02:25
six,
02:27
ten, three.
02:29
I guess take it on the phone, apparently they don't do the entire length of 3A as far as road closure.
02:37
They stop at the town line.
02:40
Do we still need them, or do you want me to leave it as if?
02:48
I'll be looking for his call.
02:49
I need barricades here from someone.
02:54
Okay, well, unfortunately, my copy from state, and I'll maybe see if I can get Manchester out there.
03:00
The best I could do is swap the fire department to your side and get some of the barricades on their side.
03:09
Sounds good, thank you.
03:14
Yeah, four copies, thank you that.
03:16
Let me know how it works, and if not, I'll try to call our own people.
03:22
We're safe.
03:25
Is the fire officer off on team okay with that swap if I could get state to close down on the Corning Roadside?
03:36
Chief is okay with that if state personnel can shut down back Corning Road.
03:45
County Road.
03:47
County, like to the 4.
03:50
Go ahead.
03:53
Can you just advise the fire chief, please, that as soon as the DOT gets on scene with his apparatus on Corning, let the DOT know what's going on, apparently Conquer does not deal with the local barn,
04:07
and they're not relaying the info because you're busy, so just have the fire department send swap places once they get there.
