This is a reminder that there will be a Full Volume Quarterly Siren  Test of the Indian Point sirens in Westchester, Rockland, Putnam and Orange Counties on this Wednesday, May 25th, at approximately 10:30AM. This sounding is only a test. The sirens will be sounded continuously at full volume for 4 minutes, followed by an activation of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) on radio and television stations to broadcast important information and instructions.  This sounding is however only a test.

If however there were an actual emergency at the nuclear power plant, the sirens would also be sounded continuously at full volume for 4 minutes, followed by an activation of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) on radio and television stations to broadcast important information and instructions. The sirens are not a signal to evacuate. Rather, they are intended to alert the public to tune to WHUD 100.7FM or another EAS radio or TV station for important information. This siren sounding is ONLY A TEST. No action by the public is necessary.
