Two new emergency sirens will be tested today in East Oahu.
The Hawaii Emergency Management Agency and the Honolulu Department of Emergency Management will test the recently installed sirens between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. at Kalama Valley Park and Wailupe Valley Neighborhood Park.
The sirens will sound for 30-second to 3-minute intervals with tests to include short blasts known as “burps.”
The sirens were installed as part of HI-EMA’s Outdoor Warning Siren Program.
Residents with concerns about the sirens, or with reports of siren malfunctions, may contact the Honolulu Department of Emergency Management at 723-8960.
