(MILAM)  THURSDAY April 2 –  Milam County Sheriff’s Department      Statewide Emergency Alert Test – April 2 Texas will conduct a statewide test of emergency alert systems on April 2 between 10:00 AM and 12:30 PM.  You may receive a test alert on your phone and/or hear outdoor warning sirens depending on the systems used by your local jurisdiction and/or the jurisdiction you are in at the time of the test. Milam County will activate its emergency notification system to cellphones through our emergency notification system during this time.  Because multiple jurisdictions may participate, you could receive more than one test alert during the testing window.   This is only a test.
