Dear
The intent of this letter is to formally request both Phase I & II Wireless 9-1-1 service from your company to be installed and tested prior to September 11, 2004. Per State of Wisconsin Statue 146.70(3)(m), the County of Waukesha has, by resolution, designated the Waukesha County Communications Center as the primary PSAP for wireless 9-1-1 calls in this county, and also authorized the Public Works Department of Waukesha County to apply for and accept grant monies from the State of Wisconsin for costs associated with providing 9-1-1 services.
In addition, FCC Docket No. 94-102 specifies that a PSAP meet certain requirements in order to make a valid request for Enhanced Wireless 9-1-1. The Waukesha County Communications Center, being the authorized PSAP for Waukesha County, will have the necessary services and equipment in place by March 1, 2004 in order to receive and use the data associated with wireless 9-1-1 calls, both Phases I & II. In 2003, the State of Wisconsin passed the appropriate legislation that enables cost recovery for both the PSAPs and the Wireless Carriers.
The Waukesha County Communications Center has purchased and will have installed by March 1, 2004, a Positron Lifeline 100 9-1-1 phone system, and a Spillman Computer Assisted Dispatch system that includes a map of the county accessible by longitude and latitude coordinates. SBC, the County’s 9-1-1 provider, will have four (4) Wireless 9-1-1 trunks installed no later than February 15, 2004, in the County’s PSAP.
As I will be the County’s contact person please contact me within an appropriate time frame so we can discuss cell face/site routing and any other issue that needs to be addressed in order to meet our deadline of having Phase II service from your company no later than September 11, 2004.
Sincerely,
Richard H. Tuma
