A system of 52 sirens near the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, designed to alert residents in the event of a nuclear or other emergency, will be tested today, Southern California Edison announced.
The sirens will be sounded twice, for two to five minutes, from 10 a.m. to noon. The sirens are in San Onofre State Park, Camp Pendleton, San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano and Dana Point.
Required by federal regulations, the sirens are intended to advise nearby residents to turn on radios or televisions for emergency instructions.
