Westchester County Government - Indian Point Sirens Test

There will be a test of the Indian Point sirens in Westchester, Rockland, Putnam and Orange Counties on Wednesday, November 2nd, at approximately 10:30AM. 

This sounding is only a test. If there were an emergency at the nuclear power plants, the sirens would 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 an EAS radio or TV station for important information. 

The siren sounding is ONLY A TEST. No action by the public is necessary.
