RAY BAUM’S Act

Any on-premises fixed telephones associated with a multi-line telephone system must ensure that “dispatchable location” information is conveyed with any 9-1-1 call made from such device. Any on- or off-premises, non-fixed devices associated with a multi-line system must also ensure that “dispatchable location” information is conveyed when technically feasible; otherwise, it shall provide dispatchable location based on end user manual update or alternative location information. “Dispatchable location” includes the street address of the caller, plus additional location information such as a suite, apartment, or similar information necessary to identify the location of the caller.
