Communications, may I help you?
Yes, I'm over in Sea Forever Falls and my son is going to UND and I'm getting kind of concerned here.
He went out sandbagging and I can't reach him.
Do they keep these crews out forever in a day or?
I don't know, ma'am.
Or to the person?
The Emergency Operations Center has been evacuated.
They're trying to set up the telephone lines at this time.
I cannot tell you what they're doing or where.
What would that number be when it gets set up, do you know?
Did you call the police department?
Well, I called 746-2685.
Okay, that's the number you need to call again.
Okay, do you know what the status is? Is it over at UND?
We're recommending an entire voluntary evacuation of the entire city of Grand Forks.
I wish I could find them and get them out.
Okay.
Thank you.
Bye.
