Subject: Primary PSAP Alternate List

 

            In the event that a PSAP must be evacuated, the alternate PSAP system will be activated. Transfer of PSAP calls can occur in several ways. They are:

 

1)                 The “Make-Busy” switch can be activated manually at any PSAP, which will automatically transfer all PSAP calls to the Alternate.

 

2)                 If after a pre-determined number of rings on the telephone with no answer, the calls will transfer to the Alternate.

 

3)                 A manual transfer of calls can occur with notification to the appropriate central office.

 

Transfers of services from a PSAP to the designated Alternate are as follows:
