The following links are various ways our citizens can stay informed.
因为2011年4月的龙卷风, Spalding County was awarded a Federal Grant in February of 2013 for the purchase and installation of two Tornado Warning Sirens. These sirens have been placed at the Blalock and Norton 消防局. These two locations were chosen due to their proximity to the historical path of these types of storms. 在这个路径上安装警报器, supplements our First Call Emergency Alert System which was implemented on March 30, 2012 and helped Spalding County become “Storm Ready” certified by the 国家 气象服务.
To obtain the “Storm Ready” designation by the 国家 气象服务, a County warning point must operate under the following criteria:
- 24小时运营
- 有警告接收能力吗
- 提供警报传播能力
- Have the ability and authority to activate local warning system(s)
These sirens are currently operational and are integrated into the counties 800 MHz radio system. They are designed to be automatically activated by a 国家 气象服务 Tornado Warning affecting Spalding County. The sirens have an audible range of approximately one mile in all directions. The siren will be automatically tested by the 国家 Weather service at noon on the first Wednesday of each month.
The Spalding County Office of 国土安全 will provide ongoing education for the community and public safety personnel on expectations of the system and procedures for citizens receiving these 警报. For additional questions, please contact the Spalding County Communications System Manager at (770) 467-4253 and/or the Spalding County Office of 国土安全 at (770) 228-2129 正常营业时间内.
