Summary

Existing provisions of the Warren-911-Emergency Assistance Act establish the number "911" as the primary emergency telephone number of use in the state. The existing Emergency Telephone Users Surcharge Act ("911" surcharge act) generally imposes a surcharge on amounts paid by every person in the state for intrastate telephone service that is imposed at a percentage rate, not less than 0.5% nor more than 0.75% as annually estimated to provide revenues sufficient to fund "911" emergency telephone system costs for the current fiscal year. This bill would define, for purposes of the "911" surcharge act, "prepaid communications service" to include prepaid calling card telephone service and prepaid wireless service, as specified. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations regarding equitable contributions to the funding of 911 systems by consumers of prepaid communications services.
