Indian Point to Test Sirens Wednesday

No need to head to the hills: there's no melt down at the plant. Orange County officials want the public to know that a full-volume test of the Indian Point Energy Center siren system will take place between 6 and 7 p.m. on Wednesday.

The test will sound at full volume for approximately four minutes throughout the 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) around Indian Point. The public needs to take no action -- really take no action. You're fine!
