Groups Issue Pre-Paid Resolution

The governing boards of NENA, APCO and NASNA have issued a resolution on the debate occurring in some state over collecting 911 surcharges from pre-paid cellular carriers. The groups said the debates, “take time and resources from all the involved parties and promote continued uncertainty and animosity.” They state that pre-paid wireless carriers, “should contribute on an equitable basis to funding 9-1-1 emergency services.” Download (pdf) the entire resolution here.
