A fixture within our community is the Diablo Canyon Power Plant (DCPP). DCPP is a nuclear
power plant that generates approximately 10% of California’s electricity. Both PG&E and the
County of San Luis Obispo have developed detailed emergency plans that would be used in
the unlikely event that an emergency were to occur at DCPP.
If a serious emergency were to occur that would require you to take action, the County
would sound the Early Warning System sirens. The sirens are an indication to tune to a local
radio or television station for emergency information and instructions.
When at sea, tune to Marine Channel 16.
The siren system is tested regularly throughout the year and may be used for
any local emergency.
Additional emergency planning information regarding DCPP is available at
www.ReadySLO.org.
Welcome! We’re glad you’ve chosen to visit San Luis Obispo County.
