On Friday, August 14, at approximately 9:30 AM, Carus will conduct planned testing of its alarm systems at its LaSalle manufacturing facility.
The testing is part of our routine emergency preparedness efforts and helps ensure our systems are functioning properly and ready to operate in the event of an emergency.
During this time, employees, neighbors, and members of the public may hear alarms and/or voiceover warnings originating from the facility. These are only tests. There are no emergencies and no action required. In the event of severe weather during this timeframe, these tests will be rescheduled.
Local emergency officials and dispatch agencies have been notified in advance of the testing. We anticipate the testing will conclude by approximately 10 AM.
Regular testing of emergency systems is an important part of our commitment to safety, preparedness, and responsible operations. We appreciate the understanding and patience of our employees, neighbors, and community members as this work is completed.
Thank you for your cooperation.
