Hi, I'm looking for Lieutenant Byron Sieber.
Everybody from the Emergency Operations Center has relocated.
Their line should be up in about 10 or 15 minutes, they're going to be out at the University
of North Dakota.
Okay, do you have the number there?
It's going to be the same number you've dialed, it's just that their lines aren't up yet.
Okay, do you have any information on who's been evacuated?
What areas are you looking at?
Fargo, North Dakota.
I have no idea about Fargo, you're calling Grand Forks.
Okay, what about Grand Forks?
Is there an updated...
We've got various areas that we have evacuated, Riverside, Lincoln, Central Park, I've got
numerous streets all through downtown.
Okay, but not a mass evacuation or anything?
