Bill overview
This bill requires New Jersey’s public safety answering points (PSAPs), which handle 911 calls, to establish a system for accepting and sharing ‘alarm scores’ from alarm monitoring centers. These scores, based on standards like ANSI/TMA-AVS-01, indicate the likelihood of a genuine emergency. The PSAPs will then provide these scores to law enforcement to help prioritize and respond to incidents more effectively. This aims to reduce unnecessary dispatch responses and improve the efficiency of emergency services.
