This test will include Tsunami warning sirens, HAZMAT Shelter-in-Place, as well as several live voice broadcast from individual speakers and all speakers at once to fully test the system. Before each announcement or siren you will here “Test, this is a test of the Navy Mass warning and notification system, please disregard all alerts”

The speakers for the alert system are located at on LaMesa Village, FNMOC, and the NPS Campus. Areas immediately outside the installations, (Monterey, Seaside, and Del Rey Oaks, etc) will hear the sirens and voice warnings.

The testing will be conducted between October 22 to October 30.
