Law enforcement center.
Law enforcement center.
Yes, hi there.
I was wondering if they need help with the dike
down on Belmont.
I'm not sure yet. The EOC is evacuating
so they're having to reset up.
I know that they are asking for a voluntary
evacuation of the city.
Of the city.
You'll see if you want to try back in about 10 minutes
they should hopefully have their new headquarters set up.
Oh, okay. They have to move too.
Yep, EOC is evacuating. We're just in the process
of getting ourselves evacuated too.
They were down at the Grand Forks.
We're at the police department.
That's where they were. They just evacuated
out of the basement. We're on the main floor.
Okay, we'll call back in a little while.
Thank you.
