Decontamination exercise: Emergency government officials will be conducting a decontamination exercise tonight beginning at 6:30 p.m., so people living near area hospitals should expect to hear sirens from EMS vehicles arriving at the emergency rooms later, during the test.
The exercise will take place at a UW-Madison soccer field, where about 35 people will be “exposed” to a chemical agent, with the field decontamination operations set up in UW campus lot 60 behind the UW Hospital complex.
