I. INTENT AND PURPOSE OF THIS PLAN
This plan is the FCC-mandated document outlining the organization and implementation of the State of Tennessee Emergency Alert System (EAS). It is the guideline for Tennessee broadcasters, video TV providers, and other stakeholders to determine:
• their mandated and optional monitoring assignments including Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) • codes to be used in the EAS Header sequence in this state • schedule of the Required Monthly Tests (RMT's) which must be relayed by all broadcasters and video operators within 60 minutes of reception • any other elements of the EAS which are unique to this state
This Plan is an adjunct to the FCC EAS Rules and is not meant to be a summary, in whole or in part, of those Rules. FCC Rules, Part 11, contain the general rules regarding the Emergency Alert System.
• Acceptance of, or participation in this plan, shall not be deemed as a relinquishment of program or device control and shall not prohibit a broadcast licensee, video provider or other stakeholders from exercising independent discretion and responsibility in any given situation, nor shall the capability of automatic control of emergency devices be deemed in any way as a requirement of any state, county, or municipal agency to relinquish control of any emergency device.
This committee was formed to facilitate advocacy and partnership for over-the-air radio and television communications, other voice, data, audio and video providers and projects between government, and the public and private sectors involving information and communications in times of critical need. This revised state plan was developed in a spirit of cooperation and coordination in order to give the citizens of Tennessee the best public notification EAS possible. Our intent is to review and revise this document on a regular and as needed basis.
II. NATIONAL, STATE, AND LOCAL EAS: PARTICIPATION AND PRIORITIES
A. National EAS Participation and EAS Operating Handbook Requirements
All broadcasters and cable operators are required to participate in the National level EAS. "PN" (Participating National). “NN” Non-participating National stations are no longer an option and
April 13, 2018 Page 5
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS) must conform to the “PN” standards. “PN” stations and all cable operators must carry the Presidential message.
In addition, all broadcasters and cable operators must transmit a Required Weekly EAS Test (RWT), and once a month, must retransmit the Required Monthly Test (RMT) within 60 minutes of receiving it on their EAS Decoder. These actions are required of all broadcasters and cable operators.
The EAS Operating Handbook aids EAS Participant personnel in handling EAS messages and tests by outlining operational procedures reflective of the requirements found in the part 11 rules (47 CFR § 11.01, et seq.). The Handbook states in summary form the actions to be taken by personnel at EAS Participant facilities upon receipt of a National-level EAS Alert, Required National, Monthly and Weekly tests, and State and Local Area alerts. A copy of the Handbook is required to be located at normal duty positions or EAS equipment locations. (47 CFR § 11.15.)
The new FCC EAS Operating Handbook requires personalization to your station BEFORE you print it. Several radio buttons and fillable fields need to be dealt-with before it is printed and kept with your copy of the state plan. You can find the most current copy at: https://www.fcc.gov/file/12715/download )
B. State/Local EAS Participation
Participation in the State and/or Local Area EAS is voluntary for all broadcasters and cable operators. However, any stations/cable operators electing to participate in any part of the State and/or Local Area EAS must then follow the procedures found in this Plan.
C. Conditions of EAS Participation
Acceptance of or participation in this Plan shall not be deemed as a relinquishment of program control and shall not be deemed to prohibit a broadcast licensee from exercising his independent discretion and responsibility in any given situation. Broadcast stations and video systems originating EAS emergency communications shall be deemed to have conferred rebroadcast authority. The concept of management of each broadcast station and cable system to exercise discretion regarding the broadcast of emergency information and instructions to the general public is provided by the FCC Rules and Regulations.
D. EAS Priorities
Stations/cable operators are reminded that the EAS Priorities are as follows:
1. National EAS Messages
2. State EAS Messages
3. Local Area EAS Messages
4. Messages from the National Information Center (NIC) [These are follow up messages after a National EAS Activation.] April 13, 2018 Page 6
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
E. Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) Authorizations for Public Warnings and Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) Governance for Tennessee
Tennessee Emergency Management Agency (TEMA) will act as the administrator for authorization of local agencies for CAP warning origination.
The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency (TEMA) is the State Reviewing and Approval Authority for all IPAWS origination users within the state.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has sole responsibility to issue a “Child Abduction Amber Alert” transmission for Tennessee through Tennessee Radio Networks’ satellite and the IPAWS network. III. THE TENNESSEE STATE EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS COMMITTEE (SECC)
• CHAIRMAN: Dr. Stephen Guillot/ Director of Emergency Preparedness at Vanderbilt University Medical Center
COMMITTEE MEMBERS:
• Tennessee Emergency Management Agency • Tennessee Association of Broadcasters • AT&T Tennessee • Verizon Wireless • Nashville Mayor’s Office of Emergency Management • National Weather Service • National Center for Emergency Preparedness at Vanderbilt University Medical Center • Tennessee Higher Education Emergency Management • Tennessee Public Television • Broadcast Engineers • Tennessee Valley Authority • iHeartMedia and Tennessee Radio Network Nashville • TN Department of Safety and Homeland Security IV. ORGANIZATION AND CONCEPTS OF TENNESSEE EAS
A. EAS Designations
The FCC's EAS Station Designations reflect the EAS status of every broadcaster and video operator. The "FCC Map book" referenced in Appendix E of this plan lists all stations and their EAS designation.
April 13, 2018 Page 7
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
NP (National Primary) Primary Entry Point (PEP ) source of all National EAS Alerts.
These stations along with the NWS and State EOC will receive and relay all National level EAS Alerts. At its initial level, it consists of various FEMA- designated broadcast stations – known as Primary Entry Point (PEP) stations – which are tasked with receiving and transmitting “Presidential Level” messages initiated by FEMA. As the entry point for national level EAS messages, these PEP stations are designated “National Primary” (NP) stations. In Tennessee, there are currently four (4). In east-TN they are WJCW-AM (910) and WJXB-FM (97.5). In middle-TN it is WSM-AM (650). In west-TN it is WREC-AM (600). National Public Radio (NPR) may also be a National source through their nationwide satellite network. The National Weather Service (NOAA WX) is not compatible for the EAN which is unlimited-time in length and beyond the capability of that system.
SR (State Relay) Primary source of all State EAS messages.
These stations will receive State level messages from the State EOC and NWS and will also relay all National level messages.
LP-1 (Local Primary) Primary source of all local area EAS messages.
They will be relaying National, State, and Weather Alerts. These may also be the input point for Local EAS Alerts. In some areas, due to the size, there may be an LP-2 and LP-3 station to help cover the entire area.
PN (Participating National) where most broadcasters and video operators are designated as "PN".
These sources are for delivering all levels of EAS to the general public.
B. Other Definitions
The following are other terms used in the organization of the Tennessee EAS Plan.
STATE EOC: Tennessee Emergency Operation Center in Nashville.
This will be the origination point for messages from the Governor.
TRN : Tennessee Radio Satellite Network (TRN) and Clear Channel Radio in Nashville.
This statewide satellite network will monitor the State and Nashville EOC, NWS, and NP-1 and relay all national and state level alerts.
April 13, 2018 Page 8
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
MOEM: Nashville mayor’s Office of Emergency Management has the capabilities to initiate actual alerts and RMTs both to Davidson County and the entire State
NWS: National Weather Service.
Under the EAS, NOAA Weather Radio (NWR) stations are encoding all of their alerts using the same coding as used for EAS alerts. Broadcasters and video operators can feed their EAS Decoders with the audio from any normal NOAA Weather Radio receiver, and their EAS Decoder will react just as it does with broadcaster EAS codes. NWS will also relay certain State Level Alerts.
IPAWS: FEMA's Integrated Public Alert and Warning System
All EAS Participants are required to monitor FEMA's Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) for federal CAP formatted alert messages .
NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS AND EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS PROGRAMS.
The nuclear power plants (Sequoyah and Watts Bar) will not have their own EAS encoder. The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency will monitor the plants via direct ground line telephone. The EAS messages are released by TEMA to or through a designated local EAS stations for activation.
C. Delivery Plan
This plan was designed to set up a primary and secondary delivery method for each level of EAS alerts as well as IPAWS. Stations which elect to monitor only the two locally assigned sources and IPAWS (FCC-mandated) will have three paths for each alert. Stations that monitor all four assigned sources and IPAWS will have five paths for all alerts. Stations that have TRN downlinks should monitor it as source number 3 (see station database in Appendix D. Stations without TRN downlink will monitor a station in their area with a downlink as their source 3. Consult the section of this plan entitled, "Table of Monitoring Assignments" (Appendix D), to determine the specific two mandated and two optional sources that each broadcaster and cable operator should monitor.
NOTE: Effective June 30 th 2012 all participants were required to monitor FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) for federal CAP formatted alerts. This requires EAS equipment to be connected to the internet and programmed correctly to poll the IPAWS server.
D. Local Area Planning
The Tennessee SECC has written this plan to set up the delivery system for National and State level alerts and messages. It is not within the scope of this plan to set up the local area webs. Some local areas and large cities have April 13, 2018 Page 9
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
already developed sophisticated Local EAS plans. These plans involve local EMA offices, County Sheriff or local police departments, and 911 Centers. Local stations are encouraged to foster a relationship with their local emergency agencies and the Area EAS chair-person. Having a well-designed local web will be an important spoke in the EAS wheel since most EAS alerts are generated for the local level.
Local emergency agencies are encouraged to leverage IPAWS technological advances to provide and improve effectiveness and timeliness of public warnings where and when possible.

C. TENNESSEE Event Codes (EEE)
Whether used under the authority of the State EAS Plan, or any of the County/Local Area EAS Plans, the following are the only Event Codes to be used in the State of Tennessee by anyone for any purpose. No codes can be added without FCC approval. County/Local Area EAS Plans which desire to use a code not on this list should submit that code request to the SECC for FCC approval and subsequent addition to this list. This list will be maintained as a "Master List" for all Event Codes used in the State of Tennessee. Use of any Event Codes that are pending approval by the FCC is optional and may not be supported for use under this Plan prior to FCC approval.

D. TENNESSEE County-Location Codes (PSSCCC)
The first digit (P) can be used to indicate one-ninth of the county code it precedes in the following pattern: All Tennessee FIPS Codes are preceded by the STATE CODE: 047 STATEWIDE = 047000
0=Entire County
1=North West 4=West Central 7=South West 2=North Central 5=Central 8=South Central 3=North East 6=East Central 9=South East
Currently the State Plan does not break the counties down into sections. VI. EAS TESTS
The following requirements regarding both RWTs (required weekly test) and RMTs (required monthly test) apply to all video providers and all broadcasters, “PN”. Even stations that have elected not to participate in local EAS alerts must still rebroadcast their local RMT every month. There are two exceptions to these rules. First, Class "D" FM and LPTV stations need not have an EAS Encoder. They must have an EAS Decoder. Thus, these stations are exempt from running the weekly digital code RWT test. However, they must retransmit monthly RMT tests as outlined below, minus the EAS Header Codes and Attention Signal. In addition, LPTV stations must present all EAS information visually, just as all other TV stations must do. The second exception is for FM Translator and TV Translator stations, which are not required to have any EAS equipment.
A. Required Weekly Test (RWT)
1. Transmission:
All broadcasters and video operators must transmit an RWT once each week at random days and times except for the week of the RMT test. There is no time- of-day restrictions. This is a 10.5-second test, consisting only of the EAS Header and End-of-Message Codes. An appropriate entry regarding transmission must be made in the Station Log.
2. Reception:
April 13, 2018 Page 14
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
All broadcasters and video operators receiving a RWT from both their required monitored sources, the NWS, plus any test received from IPAWS must log receipt of these tests. No further action is required.
B. Required Monthly Test (RMT)
1. Transmission:
Statewide RMTs will be initiated by the MOEM in all odd numbered months (daytime tests) and in all even numbered months (nighttime tests). During the designated week for this test, all other broadcasters and video operators are to wait for this test and then react as described in (4.) below. These tests will use the Event Code "RMT".
2. Scheduling of RMTs / Week and Time-of-Day:
The Tennessee Association of Broadcasters will administer the scheduled RMTs and the RMTs shall always occur during the first, full, Sunday-thru- Saturday week of the month. Time frame and origination of the RMT tests shall adhere to the following format:
MONTH TIME FRAME ORIGINATOR
JANUARY DAY / 8:30 AM to Local Sunset EOC
FEBRUARY NITE / Local Sunset to 8:30 AM EOC
MARCH DAY / 8:30 AM to Local Sunset EOC
APRIL NITE / Local Sunset to 8:30 AM EOC
MAY DAY / 8:30 AM to Local Sunset EOC
JUNE NITE / Local Sunset to 8:30 AM EOC
JULY DAY / 8:30 AM to Local Sunset EOC
AUGUST NITE / Local Sunset to 8:30 AM EOC
SEPTEMBER DAY / 8:30 AM to Local Sunset EOC
OCTOBER NITE / Local Sunset to 8:30 AM EOC
NOVEMBER DAY / 8:30 AM to Local Sunset EOC
DECEMBER NITE / Local Sunset to 8:30 AM EOC
April 13, 2018 Page 15
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
The Originator will send the RMT at its discretion. The SR Stations must then rebroadcast this test within 60 minutes of receiving it.
3. Scheduling of RMTs / Recommended Time Constraints:
The Originating Civil Authority and TAB Administrator is requested to use discretion in scheduling times for RMTs. Since all broadcasters and video providers are required to rebroadcast this test within 60 minutes of receiving it, care should be taken not to put undue hardship on broadcasters when they are carrying their highest-revenue programming. On a daily basis, these periods would include all major newscasts: early morning, noon-time, evening, and late-evening. In addition, the times of major events should be avoided, such as pre-planned Presidential speeches, hours of a major national or local news story carried outside of normal newscast hours, local and national election coverage, and certain major sporting events.
Broadcasters and video operators which have a complaint regarding the scheduling of RMTs in their Area should make their concerns known to their Area Chair (see "The Tennessee SECC" section in this Plan for names). If a satisfactory resolution is not reached at that level, the State EAS Chair should be contacted.
4. Reception / Re-transmission of RMTs
All broadcasters and video operators receiving an RMT test must re- transmit this test within 60 minutes of receiving the test. [For Daytime- only stations receiving a night-time RMT, this test must be re-transmitted within 60 minutes of the Daytime-only station's sign-on.] Transmission of this RMT test takes the place of the Required Weekly Test (RWT). Times should be logged for both the receipt and re-transmission of the RMT test. Broadcast and cable management should impress upon their staff that re- transmission of this test is not an option. It is an FCC violation to fail to re- transmit this test within 60 minutes of receiving it. The best policy may be to set your EAS unit for a 60 minute automatic countdown upon receiving an RMT. If the operator on duty does not send the test manually within that window, the EAS unit will do it when time runs out.
C. Time-Duration and County-Location Codes to be used
TIME-DURATION used in the EAS Header Code for all EAS Tests shall be 30 MINUTES.
April 13, 2018 Page 16
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
COUNTY-LOCATION codes used in the EAS Header Code for EAS Tests shall conform to these guidelines:
SR Stations:
All tests, RWT and RMT, shall use the Location Code for the entire state.
LP Stations:
All tests, RWT and RMT, shall include the Location Code for all counties in that LP stations Local Area of responsibility. To determine the counties in their Local Area of responsibility, each LP station should consult the "Boundary Map of Tennessee EAS Local Areas", and/or the cover sheet for the "FCC Map book", both found in the Appendix E of this Plan.
PN Stations and Video Operators:
RMT tests shall be re-transmitted unchanged, except for the "L-Code". Thus, RMTs will include all counties present in the original message. For the RWT originated each week by each PN and NN station, and each cable operator, the county-location code used shall be the county for the broadcaster's City of License, or video operator's Community or Area of License. Other counties in the stations/systems service area may be added at management discretion. VII. EAS TEST SCRIPTS
RMT Format and Script: This test will take about 60 seconds. Please record the alert text to insure that the entire test will take no longer than 60 seconds.
• Send the EAS header code • Use the RMT event code. • Use three-hour duration • One-second pause • Send the two-tone attention signal for 8 seconds • Transmit the following suggested test script:
“This is a coordinated monthly test of the Emergency Alert System. This test originates from the __ (Name of Agency) ______With the cooperation with local, state and Federal Emergency Management Agencies, broadcasters, multichannel video providers and other public communications operators, this system informs you of events that pose an immediate threat to your life, health or property. If this had been an actual emergency requiring immediate action or evacuation, official messages would follow the alert tone. This test will conclude in five seconds.”
• One-second pause • Send EAS end-of-message code April 13, 2018 Page 17
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
VIII. GUIDANCE FOR ORIGINATORS OF EAS ALERTS
A. Guidance for National Weather Service Personnel
NWS personnel issue EAS Weather Alerts via the NOAA Weather Wire Service (NWWS) and on NOAA Weather Radio (NWR) using the NOAA-SAME/EAS Codes. NWS procedures should be followed relating to the transmission of the SAME/EAS Codes, the 1050 Hz Alert Tone, and the reading of the weather bulletin script. NOAA Weather Radio has been an "all hazards" network in Tennessee since the establishment of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Tennessee EMA. Alerts for other than weather emergencies originate with State or Local EMAs and are broadcast by NWS personnel over NWR at the request of State EMA.
B. Guidance for Regional and Local Emergency Services Personnel
The Emergency Alert System (EAS) is designed so that agencies with an emergency message need transmit that message only once, and it will be received by all area broadcasters and video providers simultaneously. The most accessible method to do this is via the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency. In order to generate this EAS message for transmission to broadcasters and video providers, a device called an EAS Encoder is needed. This encoder transmits by radio to local broadcasters and cable operators automatically triggering their EAS Decoders to deliver the message. It is preferred that each County EOC have an encoder to aid in positive access to EAS. Counties without an EAS Encoder can still utilize the EAS System by routing their emergency alert requests through TEMA. A second system is the IPAWS server. Counties may apply to TEMA for approval to use software to send alerts to broadcasters and video operators directly via the IPAWS server.
Note: This system uses the internet as its means of communication.
A WORD OF CAUTION: Certain Emergency Services agencies may have acquired a valuable new tool in gaining direct access to all area broadcasters and video operators via the EAS. However, if not used prudently, there is danger of losing this tool. Broadcasters and cable operators are expecting the EAS to be used only for life- threatening emergencies. Keep in mind two things. First, some broadcasters and video operators have their EAS Decoders set on Automatic Mode. There is no one there to screen a message and decide if it should be aired. They are depending on you to send only an EAS Alert for a very serious emergency. The first time you trigger the system for a frivolous event, you will lose the confidence of your area broadcasters and video operators. The second thing to remember is that broadcasters and video operators participate in the local-level EAS on a voluntary basis. No one can force them to carry your EAS Alerts. Maintaining a good relationship with local broadcasters and video operators is key to their support to civil authorities during a crisis.
April 13, 2018 Page 18
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
WARNING: When sending an alert anything filter coded to OTHERS will likely not be rebroadcast. This is because OTHERS is primarily used for test purposes and any alert coming into a broadcasters EAS machine will simply log the event but it will not pass it along. You should select from the filters list above that matches your needs as closely as possible. Note this does not guarantee it will be rebroadcast as stations are allowed to pick any of those codes for use or ignore.
C. Guidance for Nuclear Plant Emergency Preparedness Programs
(The following guidance is in accordance with State of Tennessee mandates.)
Nuclear Power Plants:
Sequoyah and Watts Bar nuclear power plants emergency notification originates via telephone at the utilities site and is relayed through the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency to the County Emergency Management Agency. The state coordinates the EAS messages and time they are to be released and gives the official message to the designated local EAS stations for activation.
The state, in coordination with local authorities in the county, develops a Protective Action Decision (PAD) to protect the public. The state notifies the public of the PAD through the emergency warning and notification systems, which will include emergency messages passed via siren and tone alert radio warning systems and through the EAS, i.e., the EAS radio/television/video operators. The State EMA may initiate EAS messages to cover both the impacted areas and surrounding counties. IX. PROGRAMMING EAS DECODERS
This section is provided to aid users of the EAS, primarily broadcasters and cable operators, in programming the Event Codes, County-Location Codes, and Modes of Operation into their EAS Decoder. Regardless of the EAS hardware in use, each EAS Alert will require programming to include those three elements.
In addition all EAS Participants are required to monitor FEMA's Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) for federal CAP formatted alert messages. This will require that your EAS unit have internet access.
A. Modes of Operation
All EAS Decoders must be capable of operating in at least two modes, Manual and Automatic.
MANUAL OPERATION: In the manual mode the EAS unit will only notify the operator of any incoming EAS Alert that has been programmed into it. The
April 13, 2018 Page 19
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
operator must take appropriate action to cause the Alert to be re-transmitted over the station/cable system.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION: This type of operation is normally used with a program interrupt connection on the EAS unit. On-air audio and/or video is "looped through" the EAS unit so that the unit can interrupt the audio/video when necessary. In Automatic operation, when the EAS decoder is triggered by an EAS Alert, the unit immediately interrupts programming to transmit the EAS Alert.
SEMI-AUTOMATIC OPERATION: Some manufacturers offer a semi-automatic mode of operation in which the unit will begin a preset countdown to an automatic interrupt after receiving an EAS Alert. The operator should run the EAS Alert on the air manually at the earliest convenience. If the Alert is not run when the preset countdown time expires, the EAS unit will take over and transmit the EAS Alert automatically.
NOTE: BROADCASTERS USING "UNATTENDED OPERATION" MUST RUN THEIR EAS DECODER IN AUTOMATIC MODE OR SEMI-AUTOMATIC MODE. It is a requirement of the acceptance of this plan that unattended operations monitor the National Weather Service codes as a source, at the least, for WARNINGS for TORNADOS; FLASH FLOODING, SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS which are issued via the NWS EAS monitoring service to their public. TBI will issue CHILD ABDUCTION AMBER ALERT’s via TRN and IPAWS.
Note: All State tests and alerts are also transmitted through the IPAWS CAP server.
B. Event Codes Required by the Federal Communications Commission
The FCC requires that broadcasters and video providers program their EAS Decoders for following events:
"EAN" (National EAS Activation) - Must be re-transmitted immediately.
“NPT” (National Periodic Test) – Must be re-transmitted immediately
“NIC” (National Information Center) – Must be re-transmitted immediately
"RMT" (Required Monthly Test) - containing your County of License code and must be re-transmitted within 60 minutes of receipt.
"RWT" (Required Weekly Test) - containing your County of License code. This received test need only be logged. No re-broadcast is necessary.
C. Event Codes Required by the Tennessee State Emergency Communications Committee
The following list of event codes is the minimum required list for activation of EAS units in Tennessee. If you are staffed and handling the TOR or FFW live, such as with a meteorologist, then it is not required that these items be re-transmitted. It April 13, 2018 Page 20
TN Emergency Alert System (EAS)
is vital that any and all CEM events be re-transmitted in their entirety as this is where alerts such as life-threatening fires, evacuations, shelters and other severe issues will be sent.
"TOR" (Tornado Warnings) - Must be re-transmitted immediately.
"FFW" (Flash Flood Warnings) - Must be re-transmitted immediately.
"CEM" (Civil Emergency Message) - Must be re-transmitted immediately.
"STA" (State Priority Message) - Must be re-transmitted immediately.
D. County Location Codes to Use
Required event codes must be programmed into the EAS unit for the station's local county. Additionally, when programming EAS equipment other counties in the "service area" of the broadcast station should be considered.

STATE EAS ACTIVATION
Governor, State of Tennessee
Director, Tennessee Emergency Management Agency
State Emergency Information Director, Tennessee Emergency Management Agency
WEATHER EAS ALERTS
All Weather EAS Alerts are originated by the National Weather Service via NOAA Weather Radio. These Alerts are also disseminated via the NOAA Weather Wire Service (NWWS) and the AP and UPI teletype networks. An EAS Weather Alert received via one of these teletypes shall constitute valid authorization for a broadcaster or cable operator to originate an EAS Weather Alert "WARNING" if that is the level of Alert that has been declared by the National Weather Service. In the absence of a "WARNING" issued by the National Weather Service, a broadcaster or cable operator may originate an EAS Weather Alert "WARNING" at the direction of his Local or County Emergency Management Agency. If another agency is to be used in declaring weather alerts, it shall be listed in the appropriate Local Area Plan.
Tennessee broadcasters and video operators shall not originate a "WARNING" or "ACTIVATION" unless they are doing so at the direction of an authorized agency which does not have its own EAS Encoder to originate the EAS Alert itself. This restriction applies to all Event Codes containing the title "WARNING" or "ACTIVATION", including the "TORNADO WARNING" Code "TOR". If a broadcaster or cable operator feels he has sighted a tornado, this information should be presented as a "SEVERE WEATHER STATEMENT" with Code "SVS". When the official word from the National Weather Service or other authorized agency is received, their "TORNADO WARNING" Alert can be relayed by the broadcaster or video operator.

CIVIL-EMERGENCY EAS ALERTS
All local emergencies, other than weather alerts, shall be declared only by the Local or County Emergency Management Agency, or the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency on behalf of local authorities. If another agency is to be used in declaring local emergencies, it shall be listed in the Local/County Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) and the appropriate Local Area EAS Plan.

APPENDIX D - TABLE OF MONITORING ASSIGNMENTS
STATE RELAY AND LP STATIONS
All participating Tennessee broadcasters and video providers must monitor the two required sources shown as monitoring inputs #1 and #2 for their county of license (or studio). The National Weather Service Inputs are strongly suggested and add redundancy to receiving alerts at all levels of EAS, especially for unattended operations. All participants must also monitor the IPAWS server.
The State Relay (SR) and Local Primary (LP-1 and LP-2) stations have agreed to monitor all optional sources shown for their stations, in order to provide the maximum alternate-path options to all broadcasters and video providers.
Participating EAS stations should first monitor the nearest TRN satellite, the area LP-1or 2 receiver capable stations for Tennessee’s RMT. They should also monitor local PEP stations or a National Public Radio affiliate for national tests or notify the TAB Office for other assignments:
