PSAP Inquiries

7.1

Overview

E911 is a critical emergency service. Therefore, any address condition that interferes with a caller reaching
the appropriate PSAP, and having an accurate display, must be corrected as quickly as possible. For this
reason, the E911 Inquiry Form has been developed as a tool for the PSAP attendants to use in reporting
address problems encountered with the E911 system.
Wireless Carriers will receive E911 Inquiry Forms from the E911 Customer (county) or INTRADO.
Inquiry forms should be logged by the Carrier. A PSAP Inquiry Log form and instructions are provided in
this tab. Once the inquiry has been handled, it should be returned to the originator. If the originator of
the inquiry is unknown, the form should be returned to INTRADO.
The E911 Inquiry Form is divided into five (5) sections. (sample on the following page)
