When the warning system is operational next year, county dispatch centers will perform silent siren tests daily. Two full volurtie siren tests will be performed each year. The only other time the public will hear the sirens is during an emergency. In a full volume test, the sirens will play a Westiminster Chimes test tone. The public will be given ample notice before this full volume testing occures. Even at full volume, the twice-a-year test tones will be below state and federal noise limits, say officials. The siren manufacturer assures Emer gency Management officials that the sirens will not cause hearing loss and will not break windows. Forty-two emergency warn ing sirens will be installed near the Umatilla Army Depot, in the cities of Boardman, Irrigon, Umatilla, Hermiston, Stanfield and Echo.
