Although Canovelles does not have its own sirens within its municipal boundaries, the test will be audible due to the proximity of sirens installed in nearby towns. This alert system is crucial within civil protection plans for chemical emergencies, warning the population in the vulnerable zone about industrial accidents that may require confinement or evacuation measures.
During the test, sirens will sound, and citizens will receive an alert on their mobile phones. The start signal will consist of three one-minute alerts, separated by five-second silences. The end-of-alert signal will be a continuous tone lasting 30 seconds.
