Requires public safety answering points to establish process to accept alarm scores reported by alarm monitoring centers and provide scores to law enforcement.
This bill requires New Jersey public safety answering points (PSAPs), which handle 9-1-1 calls, to create a process for accepting "alarm scores" from alarm monitoring companies. These scores, based on the ANSI/TMA-AVS-01 2023 standard, rate the likelihood of unauthorized activity detected by intrusion alarms during each activation. PSAPs must then share these scores with law enforcement to help prioritize and respond to incidents more effectively. The bill directly affects PSAPs, alarm monitoring companies, and law enforcement agencies by standardizing how alarm data is shared for emergency response.
