Transcript: Good morning virtual world, Nick Cleary, Operations, Team 15 doing your Monday, September 2, Labor Day, Coffee Pot Update. First we'll start off, just an overview of some of our branches. We dissolved branch 30 down here, and now we are only operating branch 10 and branch 20, with this line being our separation between the branches. We'll start in division alpha, well first we'll start with the acreage. The updated acreage as of 9-1 is 11,195 acres. Starting in division alpha, they were actually able to patrol and mop this up and this is all now black, black line on our map. Moving from H9 to DP19 continuing probably one more day of having crews in here enforcing all the firing that was done three days ago. All the way into the Case Grove another day of work in this 3 acre slop over to continue to monitor and bring this back into the containment lines. Coming from DP2 to all the way up into Mineral King the fire got very active at the end of the shift yesterday they were able to get to the fire and hold it to the dozer line and at about 1700 we had about a 15 acre slop over
