GHS/OCD to Conduct AHAWS Siren Test Tuesday, December 13

The Offices of Guam Homeland Security and Civil Defense (GHS/OCD) will conduct a test of the All Hazards Alert Warning System (AHAWS) sirens from nineteen (19) locations on Tuesday, December 13, 2022 beginning at 3:15 p.m.

The siren test from the AHAWS locations is being conducted to assess operations. Residents, visitors and motorists surrounding the AHAWS sirens can expect to hear pre-scripted voice messaging announcing the start and end of the test, and sixty-seconds of the “Alert” siren tone.

The December 13 test of the GHS/OCD AHAWS sirens is separate from the pre-scheduled monthly test of all sirens. Future tests of the AHAWS sirens will continue to be conducted on a monthly basis and will typically fall on the first Tuesday of each month.
