SECURITY TRAINING EXERCISES SCHEDULED AT INDIAN ISLAND
PORT HADLOCK, Wash., - Naval Magazine Indian Island has security training exercises scheduled for Wednesday, May 3, and Thursday, May 4, 2023.
Training activities will occur near the installation’s main gate and near the pier’s security barrier with boats on the water. Exercise scenarios will include the use of blank ammunition,
loud sirens and bright blue flashing lights. Announcements will be broadcasted from the base’s loudspeaker notification system.
The main gate may be temporarily closed for a short period of time during these exercises, however that should have a minimal impact to traffic in the area.
Residents living in the communities surrounding Indian Island and installation personnel could notice increased noise levels and activities associated with training activities.
The Navy conducts these types of security exercises at installations across the world to ensure readiness and verify response procedures. NMII thanks the community for their continued
support and understanding.
