How to respond when the community warning sounds.
The Major Incident Control Committee (MICC) Grangemouth has supported public safety at the Grangemouth Industrial Complex since 1968.
It brings together technical experts from local companies including BOC, CalaChem, Calor Gas, Diageo, Forth Ports Ltd., Fujifilm, H.W. Coates, INEOS, INEOS FPS, Inter Terminals, Petroineos, Syngenta and Versalis.
Safety is of paramount importance to our companies. We train and exercise with Police Scotland, the Scottish Fire & Rescue Service, the Scottish Ambulance Service, Falkirk Council and partner agencies to ensure that, in the unlikely event of an emergency, procedures are well practised and followed effectively.
MICC Grangemouth is also responsible for the testing of the Community Warning System installed in and around the Industrial Complex. It is important that everyone — residents and visitors alike — knows what to do in the event of an emergency.
This website contains important information about what MICC does, how the public is involved, and the action to take should a major incident arise in the Grangemouth Industrial Complex.
The next Community Warning System test is on Wednesday 2nd December 2026 at 2.30pm. Further information will be posted before the test
