GHS/OCD to Conduct AHAWS Siren Test September 9

The Office of Guam Homeland Security and the Office of Civil Defense (GHS/OCD) will conduct a test of the All Hazards Alert Warning System (AHAWS) sirens on Tuesday, September 9, 2025, starting at 3:15 p.m. 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 September 9 siren test is separate from the pre-scheduled monthly tests and is being conducted to assess operations and identify any operational issues. Future tests of the AHAWS sirens will be conducted on a monthly basis, in conjunction with NBG and AAFB, and will typically fall on the first Tuesday of each month, unless it falls on an observed holiday.
