Naval Magazine Indian Island will hold a security drill this week.

The Navy has scheduled security training exercises for Tuesday, Jan. 24.

Officials said the training will involve flashing lights and loud sirens. 

Residents in nearby communities may notice increased noise levels associated with the drill, and training activities will include the use of blank ammunition, flashing lights, and loud sirens near the pier on Indian Island.

The Navy said the training is needed to maintain readiness and verify response procedures, and such types of security exercises are regularly conducted at the Navy's installations around the world.
