CISO is advising just south of the exit and there is blockage 1218s in route.
01:06
I believe there might be two separate 1216[3]s.
01:09
You can start another unit for now.
01:16
Copy. This one ETSO just sent was reported at the 30 northbound just before the exit.
01:22
You might have just passed it.
01:24
Is that the one that may be separate from the one you're headed to?
01:30
Hold off on a second.
01:31
That's all I'd rise.
01:35
Copy. They're also advising it's maybe two vehicles that are approximately 300 free to park.

It's going to be right before the access to risk block is,
03:29
and it looks like they're going to be about 100 yards apart from each other, and OSCE is advised in and around.
03:38
Heavy rest before team coming.
03:52
16, I'll feel you available in quarter.
04:06
Here, 12.12, I'm just trying to figure out if come in a wrong way from 30 is an option.
04:14
And both lanes look like they were blocked.
04:17
I believe you'll have to access going wrong way.
04:21
If you didn't copy 36, looks like both lanes are blocked, wrong way would be probably the best option.
04:33
Copy.
04:36
Seventy-36-and-24, can you advise how far south of Exit 30 is going to be?
04:56
About a mile.
05:04
Okay,
05:06
I'll test it out, make it down to the activity if anything's moving through or not.
05:19
I see that there is a call rated for them.
05:22
It says no ODOT on duty.
05:24
I, if you want, I can ask them to start that way.
05:27
It looks like a page was already sent.
05:30
I'm sure I'll contact them to see if they're working on getting somebody that way.
05:37
Okay.
05:49
The info to the 1218 best access will be going the wrong way.
05:56
Yeah, but it sounds like mercy is a little delay, but I'll advise them anyway.
