this is EMS 52.
00:01
A tree came down here at Station 6, the Milton Road,
00:05
and it took out the power line to the rear parking lot.
00:11
I'm trying to get a pole number,
00:13
but it's in the front right corner of the building.
00:16
I'm just concerned about that open power line.
00:18
I don't know if you all want to ride over here and look at it or if you want me to call General Services.
00:26
Usually what we'll do is notify the power company, but we can ride down there if you want us to and just check it out.
00:35
Yeah, I'm trying to get the poll number now.
00:37
The building's got power, and it's not blocking the parking lot, but the entire, that power line to the back of the building is out, and I'm trying to find out if the wire is exposed anywhere.
00:54
Careful, we'll ride time here take it out.
00:59
Okay,
01:00
communications are you on.
01:05
I got a Duke poll number when you're ready to copy,
01:11
reference a wire.

01:51
A tree came down on a single line feeding the property of EMS Station 6.
02:02
The exterior lighting is out.
02:05
It is not blocking the roadway,
02:08
but I believe the wire still may be live.
02:11
I don't have any sparks or anything like that, but it's tangled up in a tree.
02:24
That's time for over.
02:25
We'll give them a call.
02:27
Thank you.
02:31
52, you still on?
02:38
Duke Power, they're asking, is the line hanging low enough that a person could touch it?
02:44
That's affirmative.
02:45
It's tangled up in the tree on the ground.
02:56
MS-52, is power still on, or is it off?
03:00
It feeds an exterior power pole to the property.
03:06
The interior of the building is fine,
03:09
but the parking lot is dark.
03:11
So I am assuming this line is still live, but I'm not 100% certain.
