The City of Burien is conducting a test today (Wednesday, July 6) of the Burien Alert emergency notification system. Residents and businesses with land telephone lines can expect to receive a call from the automated system indicating the call is a test. People who have "opted in" their cell phones and other electronic devices should also receive a call.

Anyone can opt in by going to the City website at www.burienwa/gov. Look for "Burien Alert" on the home page.
