§ 771.106. FUNDING OF PILOT PROGRAM.                                        

Text of section effective until September 1, 2009
	(a)  Money in the 9-1-1 services fee fund may be appropriated 
to The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston on behalf of 
the center to fund the pilot program.
	(b)  The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston on 
behalf of the center and the center are also authorized to seek 
grant funding for the pilot program.
	(c)  A political subdivision that participates in the pilot 
program may pay an appropriate share of the cost of the pilot 
program.
	(d)  The provisions in this subchapter that require the 
center to establish, conduct, and evaluate the pilot program are 
contingent on the center receiving funding in accordance with this 
section.  If a sufficient number of political subdivisions in a 
region that could be served by a pilot program offer to pay the 
center an amount that in the aggregate, together with any other 
funding received under this section, is sufficient to fund the 
pilot program for the region, The University of Texas Medical 
Branch at Galveston, on behalf of the center:
		(1)  shall enter into contracts with the offering 
political subdivisions under which each will pay an appropriate 
share of the cost;  and
		(2)  when the amount under the signed contracts, 
together with any other funding received under this section, is 
sufficient to fund the pilot program for the region, shall 
implement the pilot program for the region.
