Uh, hi. Did I call the emergency police?
What's happening? Is there getting high volume of calls or rolling up to us?
Is there something I can help you with?
No, I'm not sure. What my problem is, is we've got people that are being diked in
and they want to know if FEMA's around to answer some questions about whether or not
if they've fled their basements are going to be covered.
Where are you at?
It's on the Riverside area. They're diking like down second, I don't know.
The Riverside area is supposed to be evacuating. That's a mandatory evacuation area.
What they're wondering is if they've fled their basements themselves,
are they going to be covered under their insurance?
Can you hold on please?
