911 Public Safety Telecommunicators Certificates (Monitor) 

CS/HB 341 (Amesty) and CS/SB 980 (Brodeur) revise the time period that a 911 public safety telecommunicator certificate may remain inactive or be reactivated from 180 days to six years. CS/SB 980 was amended to remove the requirement that the certificate holder must request their inactive status and instead makes that automatic after six years and removes the $50 fee. CS/HB 341 passed the House (114-0) and the Senate (39-0) and is awaiting action by the Governor. (Taggart)
