I heard that MABAS radio traffic on the scanner as I was getting ready for work. There is a patch to the Milwaukee County 800 system. Sounded big but at least there were no serious injuries

I went on Google earth to see the location of this fire and noticed Camp Lake is directly across the street maybe 100 yards from its shoreline to the road. I am curious to know if it was used or considered as a water source in lieu of the tanker shuttle operations. The lake is about one square mile in surface area but I have no idea if it is easily accessible even though it is close to the road. Does anyone else have information?
