Sirens to be tested today at 2 beach parks on Oahu

The Hawaii Emergency Management Agency will test siren installations today at Kawaikui Beach Park and Kapiolani Beach Park on Oahu.

The tests will be conducted between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. and will sound intermittently during that period to test for proper functioning.

The sirens were installed as part of HI-EMA’s ongoing siren repair and upgrade program. Other sirens will be updated, and new sirens installed, at various locations across the state over the coming months.

Residents with concerns about the sirens or their operations, or with reports of siren malfunctions, may contact the Honolulu Department of Emergency Management at 723-8960.
