Flood Call 134

Caller one needs sand, but all the lines to the EOC are busy. After a series of holds, caller two is also calling for sand, and is told to keep trying the EOC. Caller three wants to know where a guy with five or six bundles of sandbags should go. Caller four sounds like an accidental dial.
