Today Oleg Shulyak, head of the Main Directorate of the Smolensk Region for ensuring the activities of the fire and rescue service, spoke about testing new public warning equipment.
But of course, what was most interesting was the results of the first launch of the alert sound.
A new warning system was installed in Smolensk following the example of the Belgorod region. Today (April 26) we conducted the first test of the equipment.
6 sirens were installed on the highest building of Korolevka. All work was carried out at the expense of the city budget. All this cost about 900 thousand.
On behalf of Governor Vasily Anokhin, Alexander Novikov ordered the launch of a pilot project in the Zadneprovsky district. And practice all civil defense measures in the region.
— The first event was to notify the population about civil defense actions. It was precisely these signals that the Smolensk residents heard today,” Shulyak said.
2nd is the organization of shelters for the population.
The sound itself was audible well, however, a full assessment of the system’s performance will be given only after analyzing the sound from the most distant points.
But the first results can already be assessed.
Shulyak said that everything was clearly audible and most likely the sound would be left at this volume.
However, the voice announcement system still needs work. On the streets, the sound of passing cars interrupts the voice announcement. And in apartments, taking into account household noise, it is unlikely that the voice will be heard at all.
Shelter
Note that the media representatives who participated in the inspection listened to the sound wave directly in the zone of direct sound propagation.
After that we went to check the shelters. No one had any questions for them.
