The Kenai Peninsula Borough’s Office of Emergency Management will be testing the emergency notification system in Cooper Landing at 1:05 p.m., Tuesday, a press release from the borough said.
The test is being conducted to evaluate the system, and to encourage folks to register their cellphone numbers if they haven’t already done so. Only registered landlines and cellphones with physical addresses located in Cooper Landing will be a part of the test.
In an actual emergency, the KPB alerts will notify the incident and what actions to take.
Those who do not receive the alert by 2 p.m., Tuesday, can email the emergency management office at oem@kpb.us to register their phone number.
All landlines in the borough are currently registered with the alert system. Mobile phones need to be registered online at alerts.kpb.us.
