Yes, I live on Sloping Hills at the end of Sunbeam.
Okay.
Is it evacuation time for this area?
We're asking all individuals to be ready for an emergency evacuation.
What is your exact address?
Seventy-five. I'm right against the river.
Seventy-five?
Sloping Hills.
Okay, I would be prepared to leave at a moment's notice.
Would they come by and open the door and let us know?
I don't know if they'll let you know, but if you hear the sirens go off, monitor channel your radio or your TV set.
I don't have power. I lost it two days ago.
Okay, if they sound the sirens, if you hear the sirens, it's time to leave.
Okay.
Okay?
All right.
Okay, but hopefully they'll be able to come by because we may not have siren capability either.
Okay.
What do I do so you guys know? Would you just keep our list, our number listed?
No ma'am, we can't do that.
Okay, how would they know to let us know?
When they decide to evacuate at the area, they will try to get individuals down with sirens and with megaphones or off the vehicle to notify people to evacuate.
How much time do we have to evacuate from there?
Minutes.
All right.
If you can leave now, it probably would be best.
Okay.
Okay?
Thank you.
