Luzerne County emergency management officials tomorrow will activate 112
sirens within the 10-mile radius of PPL’s Susquehanna Steam Electric plant as
part of an annual readiness test.
   
The sirens will sound in a steady tone for three to five min utes. Area
residents who are tuned into an Emergency Alert System radio or television
station will hear a test message.
    The routine siren testing is required by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
and Federal Emergency Management Agency.
