Community Message - Alarm test

Emergency Siren Test – EPZ  

A full volume test of the new alert and notification sirens located
throughout the emergency planning zone will be held Wednesday, June 3, 2009
between 10:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.  The sirens will sound for four minutes.

In an actual emergency, the new sirens would sound simultaneously at full
volume for four minutes.
The sirens are not a signal to evacuate but rather
to alert the public to tune to their local Emergency Alert System (EAS)
radio or television station (100.7 FM-WHUD) for important information.

Please do not hesitate to contact the Office of Fire & Emergency Services at
1-800-942-1450, should you have any questions.

Sincerely,
Nicholas A. Longo, Jr.
Program Coordinator
