Hey, G, be advised.

We still don't have enough pressure from that hydrant for 309.

Tap into that 5-inch line and feed 309, pump it with 21.

Okay, copy that.

If we get you in a dump tank as well,

Let's get 21 set up in a good spot first,

and we can see how we're doing there, and then set the tank up.

Okay, copy that.
