As part of our ongoing efforts to keep our country and communities safe
during emergencies, we’re working in partnership with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) to conduct the first nationwide test of the Emergency
Alert System (EAS). The EAS test plays a key role in ensuring the nation is
prepared for any type of hazard, and that the U.S. public can receive
critical and vital information should it ever be needed.
Over the past year, our agencies have been working with the broadcast
community, cable operators and programmers, and other communications service
providers that participate in the Emergency Alert System; our state, local,
tribal, and territorial partners; and other critical stakeholders to help
inform all members of the public regarding the nationwide Emergency Alert
System test.
Here are specific items we want everyone to know about the test:
It will be conducted Wednesday, November 9 at 2:00 PM EST.
It will be transmitted via television and radio stations within the U.S.,
including Alaska, Hawaii, the territories of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin
Islands, and American Samoa.
Similar to local emergency alert system tests, an audio message will
interrupt television and radio programming indicating: “This is a test.”
When the test is over, regular programming will resume.
As we get close to the test, the FCC and all of our many partners are
working together to spread the word to as many members of the public as
possible -- so people know what to expect when the test takes place, and no
one is caught off guard. We're asking everyone to join us by spreading the
word to your neighbors, co-workers, friends and family -- share this web
page, post a message on your social media site, and feel free to embed our
videos on your website or blog. |
