TONE ALERT RADIOS
Beginning May 1, 2009, TONE ALERT RADIOS or TARs will no longer work in some areas. TARs were distributed as part of the Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program to provide emergency alerts. TARs in Clay, Cleburne, Etowah, St. Clair and Talladega counties as well as Calhoun County’s Protective Action Zones will not provide alerts after April 30. TARs in Calhoun County’s Immediate Response Zones and Pink Zones will not be affected. Do not dispose of your TAR in your household garbage. Alabama Emergency Management Agency will recycle the battery and other materials in the TAR. HURRICANE PREPAREDNESS WEEK Alabama has seen its share of devastating hurricanes from Katrina, Ivan, and the historic Fredric. Last year we received damage in coastal counties due to Hurricanes Gustav and Ike even though they made landfall in Louisiana and Texas. Tropical Storm Faye caused damage in many inland Alabama counties, reminding us that every county in the state is vulnerable to hurricane hazards.
