As far as Pierce County having activation issues that has been addressed. There was some simple programming changes that needed to be made.
Great to know that. Thank you for sharing! I could've sworn that the original three 2001s in Fife were SRNBs (I think they were installed in 2007). Which Whelen got replaced by another 130? Valley Ave? Levee Rd? The one NE of the EQC? Also, do you know the date that the new sirens were installed (including the new Mod in Orting)?

Sorry if im asking too much. The alert and warning coordinator hasn't gotten back to me in a while.

Quick question just because I saw it above... Didn't Seattle build a flood/tsunami wall for just such a problem? And puget I seem to remember that they WERE SRNBs like the 2 in Lincoln city OR... Might have been replaced.
