Some customers will begin paying
these charges many months before
they are able to use the 9-1-1
emergency number. Why? These
funds must be collected during the
implementation process to cover
start-up costs. Although realization
of the service may not occur for up
to two years in some areas, the cost
is minimal when compared with
saving a human life or a home.
Customers should consider the
advantage of a 9-1-1 emergency

Just three simple numbers-9-1-1.
Simple to remember, and simple to
use. But not so simple to implement.
Going to the phone and dialing 9-1-
1 is easy enough. It saves lives,
limbs and property. Currently,
more than 50 Texas communities
representing more than 50 percent of
the state’s total population provide
residents with 9-1-1 emergency
telephone number access. These
communities range in size from a
few thousand to more than two
million.
But what about the smaller cities
and the rural communities in Texas
that still are unable to afford the
hefty price tag of even basic 9-1-1 in
the 1987 legislative session, which
aJows for the planning, financing
and implementing enhanced 9-1-1
service in communities all across
the state.
To finance the implementation of
9-1-1 service in rural areas,
telephone customers in 113 Texas
counties will see a new charge on
their bills as of January 1,1990.
Customers will be assessed a 9-1-1
Equalization Surcharge amounting
to two-tenths of one percent (0.20)
each month on all long distance
services billed within Texas. The
surcharge also applies to intrastate
WATS, private line and optional
calling plans. In addition,
customers will see a small service
fee that will provide for the
