Maintenance work to Grangemouth’s Community Warning System will be conducted on Tuesday 3rd and Wednesday 4th December 2024 in advance of the biannual test at 2.30pm on Wednesday 4th December 2024.
The Community Warning System, operated by the Grangemouth Industrial Complex’s Major Incident Control Committee (MICC), will sound warning tones and verbal messages during both the maintenance and testing periods. Grangemouth residents and visitors will not be required to take any action.
In the unlikely event of an emergency taking place during the maintenance period, the transmission via the warning system will clearly indicate such an event and the public should “Go in, Stay in and Tune in”.
MICC chairperson, Derek Brown said: “As part of our commitment to public safety we require to conduct maintenance work and testing of the Community Warning System to ensure it is in full working order. The Community Warning System plays an important part in alerting the public in the unlikely event of a Major Incident at any one of the partner companies in Grangemouth. Within the MICC, we consider the safety of the public to be paramount.”
