NAVAIR China Lake Naval Air Weapons Station will test its re-established mass alert system on Wednesday, Jan. 29, 2003.

Six sirens, located throughout the base property, will be tested individually and as a unit throughout the day.

Individuals working, living or visiting the base can anticipate hearing these sirens during the one-day test. Area resident living adjacent to the base will also be effected. We apologize for any inconvenience this test may cause.

It is a standard safety procedure for naval installations to test their mass alert systems on an occasional basis in case of emergencies or natural disasters.

Call the Public Affairs Office at (760) 939-3511 if you have questions.
