Reporter good morning take a look you can see one of the Major Concerns here down and out of the way. To give you a sense of where we are we are at 24th and told us. You can see that the huge crane that was swung wildly during the fire has been brought down to successfully and is now out of harms way. [ cheering and applause ] crews lower the crane yesterday after it swung freely during the fire. A lot of the scaffolding that had been standing around the fire was removed making it much safer than it was 24 hours ago. State officials said the building inspectors will be out early looking at homes and apartment buildings and trying to determine how many of the 700 to 900 resident who were displaced by this fire will be allowed to go back home. Residence we spoke with are worried about what they will find when we returned home after it is not livable was aware that it is smiling right now. I think every item and limiting linen will have to be scrubbed and the mattress probably thrown away. Reporter we are expecting a lot more work here at the site. Now that the crane is down and the sky scaffolding has been removed we are waiting for arson investigators to get into the scene. We were here yesterday when one atf agent appeared at the scene. We saw her begin the investigation as to how the fire started. We are expecting a team in from washington dc as early as tomorrow. Keep in mind fire inspectors from the atf and oakland and the county i want to get inside the building to determine where the fire started and perhaps that will give them an idea on how the fire started. One of the things they are still looking for is any help from the public. Anybody who has video or was here at the time of the fire authorities want to hear from you so they can get an idea on how the fire started. Keep in mind this is just the latest in a series of mysterious fires that have struck apartment buildings that were under construction so we have more questions than answers at this point. That resident raised a good point with the smell of the fire. A lot of the time when you go into a scene it is the smell of the smoke. Is there a strong smell of fire out there. To you get the sense will be a big robin for the neighboring residents . This morning there is not a strong smell but one of the things that has been an issue of course is the set and debris that the fire rained down in the neighborhood. We can turn maybe we could see some of it on the road. Theres some also a little bit further to the right as well. That is the kind of thing that is all over the neighborhood. Just ash and soot all over the area. A lot of cleanup the cars and vehicles. If any other got into your home that could be a problem as well. You heard the resident talking about wanting to get all of the soft items wanted. I was out here friday morning. There was not a great deal of smoke and rosemary did a great idea explaining what was going on weatherwise. There was an inversion layer so a lot of the smoke was going straight up instead of being blown out it was going up and that it would loss them out and then there would be debris raining down the neighborhood. I know when you cover a fire and he go to the scene a lot of sense to get home and you see one of these and you can smell it for days. I can only imagine what some of those apartments i like.
