Sounds to me that it's a matter of the refinery not activating the sirens in a timely manner, not an innate problem with the sirens themselves.

The article says residents indicated that one siren never sounded.

It is evident that some sirens did sound. You can hear them starting at the 0:33 mark in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkaKPAys0w4

Another siren can be heard starting around 2:52.

I know exactly where that Cyclone sits. I pass by it frequently when at work it's one of two that I know of in the Richmond Martinez area....
