alertable.ca/#/incidents/f8193244-bce8-43c4-8bea-df8ef9becfe9
At 7:10pm on Wednesday April 16th the Zeballos Volunteer Fire Department will be conducting door-to-door knocking to alert residents in Ehatis and Zeballos about a (pretend) incoming distant tsunami from Alaska. The purpose of this exercise is to assess how many households the ZVRD can door-knock on in one hour. If your household is missed you weren't forgotten about, but we are using the time from 8:00pm-9:00pm that night to debrief about the exercise.
If residents prefer that the ZVFD not come to their home then please contact Manager of Emergency Services Shaun Koopman at 250-830-6702 or skoopman@srd.ca to be placed on the 'DO NOT VISIT' list.

Wouldnt it be better to test a dam breach siren for the downtown core of Campbell River Shaun?
