Green Mountain Power will be activating our four warning sirens on Tuesday, November 14th at 8:30 AM-this is the twice a year test per our operating agreement.
This test will last a full 2-3 minutes and will involve multiple directional changes so the sound will vary. It is not expected that the sirens will be audible in North Chittenden.
VT Emergency Management will be issuing a VT Alert notice tomorrow, Nov. 7th mid-morning in preparation of this exercise. There will be a second alert message sent out on Nov. 14th around 8:00 AM. These messages will go to all registered VT Alert accounts in the targeted flood area.
Those who have not signed up yet will not receive these messages. If you live in the flood water path and did not receive the message, please sign up at vtalert.gov. This is the system we will be using to send out emergency information. You can use a telephone to receive notices if you don't have a cell phone or computer.
