On Saturday, August 29, 2015, a test of the tsunami and Pony Creek Dam warning system will take place. The coordinated test of area sirens is being conducted by Coos Bay-North Bend Water Board, City of Coos Bay, and City of North Bend. The test will give the public the opportunity to hear the various sirens and to hear the differences in the audible warnings. Sirens will be heard within the cities, including the Empire area. Sirens located at the North Bend High School, Empire Fire Hall and Water Board Service Center will be activated at 10 a.m. and consist of 2 tests. The first test will consist of a three minute steady siren blast representing a tsunami warning. A second test will follow consisting of a three minute on-off siren blast (15 seconds on – 10 seconds off) representing a dam failure warning.
