Lafcarr holds a siren drill at the Caspe and Mequinenza dams to test the Emergency Plan

Siren drill at the Caspe and Mequinenza dams – 2024 Emergency Plan

Last month, Lafcarr Project & Design carried out a successful siren drill at the Caspe and Mequinenza dams. It is part of the protocols set out in the External Emergency Plan, to check that the audible warning systems work properly and keep people safe in an incident.

A key exercise for public safety

During the exercise, the sirens installed by Lafcarr were activated at several strategic points, playing the official alert and end-of-emergency signals. The test was overseen by the Ebro River Basin Authority and the Government of Aragon Civil Protection Service, together with local councils.

These tests are essential to familiarise people with the response protocols and make sure the warning system works properly in real situations.

Media coverage

The drill was covered by the newspaper La Comarca, which highlighted the importance of such initiatives in strengthening a culture of prevention in the area. You can read the article here:
