SOUTH BEND – Pacific County Emergency Management will be testing the All Hazard Alert Broadcast (AHAB) sirens on Saturday, January 26, 2008, at 9:00 a.m. The sirens will ring the Westminster Chimes, and will follow with a verbal message indicating that this is a test only. A preview of the warning system playing Westminster Chimes is available on the World Wide Web at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pb3ICGMgnVo.
In actual events, the sirens will sound a constant tone (no warble) for three continuous minutes, which will be followed by a verbal message. The Pacific County Tsunami Plan calls for the sirens to be activated any time Pacific County is placed within the area of a tsunami warning. A tsunami warning means that an earthquake in the Pacific Rim may have generated a tsunami wave that has the potential to reach the Pacific County coastline within a three hour window of time.
Residents are encouraged to listen for the test and to report any concerns to the Pacific County Emergency Management Office at (360) 875-9340/(360) 642-9340 on Monday, January 28, 2008, as this will be the first full test of the All Hazard Alert Broadcast system.
