KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Officials will be performing preventive maintenance on the public warning siren system in the Oak Ridge area throughout the week of Nov. 6, according to Y-12 National Security Complex officials.
Throughout the week, people in the area may occasionally hear audio from individual sirens in the vicinity of the Y-12.
The sirens are strategically placed to notify the public in the event of an on-site emergency that has impacts beyond Y-12's boundary.
In case of an actual emergency on the Oak Ridge Reservation, sirens will sound simultaneously with the standard three-minute tone. For more information about what to do in the event of an emergency, click here.
