            • Duke Energy - Warning Sirens Test January 12, 2022

              Good morning!  I want to make you aware that the 59 outdoor warning sirens around the Robinson Nuclear Plant will be tested for five to 30 seconds between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. on Wednesday, January 12, as scheduled. To ensure they are functioning properly, it may be necessary to test some sirens more than once.
               
              Testing is performed in cooperation with emergency officials in Chesterfield, Darlington, and Lee counties, who are responsible for sounding the sirens.
               
              Because this is a test, local broadcasting stations will not interrupt regular programming to broadcast Emergency Alert System (EAS) messages. If there were ever a real emergency at the plant requiring the sirens to besounded, local radio and television stations would broadcast information and instructions to the public.
               
              For more information about nuclear emergency preparedness and outdoor warning sirens, residents can visit duke-energy.com/NuclearEP.
