I talked to the tower. They're going to update the building department rep. Just let them know that there's no immediate hazard here, that we are not staying on scene. You guys are good to go whenever you're ready. That's clear. I talked to building maintenance. They have a crew to come out and clean up the sidewalk, and then they're going to get on this roof as soon as they get together. Sounds good.

Firefighters report no loose tiles on the roof and are preparing to leave the scene.

Truck 17, District 2, we have no leased tiles up here. Should be good to go in the building, getting up here, building owner and getting up here and repairing them. Alright, sounds good. I'll give the tower call and just pass info on for them to pass on to the building department, but doesn't seem like there's any reason for us to stay on scene. Thank you.

It looked like debris that got blew off the top of the paraffin wall from the storm, and it came down n shattered
