GENESEE COUNTY EMERGENCY SIREN TEST
The Genesee County Office of Emergency Management would appreciate our help in the monthly testing of Flint & Genesee County’s Emergency Alert Sirens. The sirens are tested on the first month of each Saturday, from March through November of each year, at 1:00 pm.
GCARES has, over the past several years assisted the Genesee County Office of Emergency Management in testing the sirens to ensure that the county is well protected in its Emergency Alert System in warning the public of impending severe weather or other disasters.
If amateur radio operators could participate each month, they would be asked to go to one of the siren locations (listed below) and simply report if the siren is operational or not. It would only take about 15 minutes of your time.
The net will start each month at 12:30 pm on the GCARES Primary 147.260 repeater. This will allow net control to assign siren locations to those operators participating in the test.
