If
you hear sirens, you should tune in to your local Emergency
Alert System (EAS) radio or television station for emergency
information and instructions.
The
sirens are not a signal to evacuate.
Your area
may not be affected by an emergency, or you may be asked simply to
remain indoors for a period of time. You will be given specific
instructions about whether to stay inside, leave the area or take
other protective action.
The
sirens around VC Summer are tested on the first Tuesday
of every month.
In
the event that you hear a siren signal that is not a test or actual
emergency notification, you may contact your local emergency
management official for further information. Do not call 911. A
report of an unscheduled siren sounding will be investigated and you
will be informed of the status.
What
To Do If You Hear Sirens
Listen
for a steady three-minute siren signal. Turn on your radio or
television. The EAS stations will have the most timely and accurate
information concerning the accident.
