Engs. 309, 283, 321

Battalion 58
12:09 hours
Receiving numerous calls reporting that the fire is between the riding academy and Canarsie Pier on the beach. Marine 3 also receiving reports on the marine band radio.
Marine 3 assigned
Based on the quantity of calls and the updated location, E309 directed to respond eastbound from Flatbush Ave. E321 directed to respond directly onto the highway to backup E309.
E283, TL170 advised to respond westbound from Rockaway Parkway.

E309: Contact E321, have them respond into the riding academy to get to the fire.
12:12 hours
E309: It is east of the riding academy. We passed the riding academy on the highway, we're unable to reach the car fire. It's on the beach.
E283 advised to to Flatbush Ave, turn around, and respond to the academy.
12:14 hours
NYPD Aviation: Be advised we're over that car fire. Somebody with a backhoe is trying to put it out with dirt. We have it in our sight with your unit, if they want to follow us in it will take them right in. He should be able to get pass from the riding academy to our location, it's right on the shoreline. There is a pass just west where it is that goes to one of the aviation landing pads. It's wide, I don't know if they can get a truck through, but it's solid.
E321: We're trying to get through a gate at the riding academy and get directions in there
NYPD Aviation: It's solid about halfway but then it turns into dirt. It's very close to the water, it's about halfway. The backhoe was trying to put it out with sand, it's stopped now, it's still on fire.
Marine 3: We'll be 10-84 in about 2 minutes, we're in contact with Sea Tow, we should be able to hit it from the shore.
NYPD: Advise Marine 3 there is a boat docked right there so they should have no problem reaching it.

E309: E309 will be operating with E321, we're going in on foot.
12:18 hours
Marine 3: 10-84, we'll be able to hit this from the shoreline. We're going to start up the pumps, if E309 wants to bring in 3 lengths of hose to the shore, they'll be able to hook up to the vessel.
