On
Oct. 4, you will hear your phone go off. Rather than receive a text from a
loved one or co-worker, it will be a nationwide test ordered by the federal
government.
That
day, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Federal
Communications Commission will partner to test the Emergency Alert System and Wireless Emergency Alerts on
Americans’ phones across the country.
This
two-part test is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. EST, according to FEMA.
The EAS test portion of the test will affect radios and televisions and last
about a minute.
The
message to accompany the test will say, “This is a nationwide test of the
Emergency Alert System, issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency,
covering the United States from 14:20 to 14:50 hours ET. This is only a test.
No action is required by the public.”
The
test that will impact cell phone users will be the WEA test, the second time to
be tested on phones but the third time in which the alert system has been
tested. Phones
will receive a text message displayed in either English or in Spanish,
depending on the language settings of the wireless handset.
In
its statement, FEMA said it and the FCC were “coordinating with EAS
participants, wireless providers, emergency managers and other stakeholders in
preparation for this national test to minimize confusion and to maximize the
public safety value of the test.”
“The
purpose of the Oct. 4 test is to ensure that the systems continue to be
effective means of warning the public about emergencies, particularly those on
the national level,” the statement read. “In case the Oct. 4 test is postponed
due to widespread severe weather or other significant events, the back-up
testing date is Oct. 11.”
Wireless
cell phones should receive only one test text, with broadcast towers carrying
out the tests for around 30 minutes. The message will read “THIS IS A TEST of
the National Wireless Emergency Alert System. No action is needed.”
Phones set in Spanish will display “ESTA ES UNA PRUEBA
del Sistema Nacional de Alerta de Emergencia. No se necesita acción.”
In
order for the alerts to be accessible for everyone, including people with
disabilities, alerts will include a unique tone and vibration, FEMA said. Your
phone will sound even if it has alerts silenced, according to Parade.
