They are on the Jersey side. No industrial plant I know of in New York has sirens.EOWS1212man wrote:The two times I have been to New York City I remember seeing a few Modulators that belonged to some industrial plant on the drive in... They might be on the New Jersey side though, I'm not sure.
Other than fire sirens (which many volunteer FDs have) and the aforementioned Orthodox sirens, the only sizeable systems I know of in the state that aren't for a college campus are as follows:
- Indian Point: Well over 100 ATI HPSS32s and a few HPSS16s throughout Westchester, Putnam, Orange and Rockland Counties
- Schoharie County: 17 Whelen Vortexes and 3 WPS4000s downstream of NYC's Schoharie Reservoir for dam warnings
- Saratoga/Warren Counties: Several dam sirens downstream of the Conklingville Dam. Installation in progress, I think they're Federal Signal DSAs but cannot confirm.
- Oswego County: ASC T-128s that recently replaced Thunderbolt 1003s. Nuclear plant sirens.
- Monroe/Wayne Counties: 96 sirens around Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, mostly ACA Howlers, but a few Banshees and ASC T-128s in there as well.
As you can probably ascertain, only one is in the NYC metro area and one other has something to do with NYC's water supply system, but is over 100 miles from the city itself.
