ROBERT L. EHRLICH, JR., Governor

Ch. 5

Former Art. 41, § 18-108(d) and (e), which provided for counties without
operational enhanced 911 systems, are transferred to the Session Laws. These
provisions are obsolete because all counties have operational enhanced 9-1-1
systems. The provisions are decodified and retained in the law, however, for historical
purposes.
