(1) As used in this section:

(a) “Proportional distribution” means the amount of a public safety answering point's proportion of 911 emergency service charge revenue calculated under Subsection (3).

(b) “Proportion of total call volume” means the number of 911 emergency communications that a public safety answering point receives in a year divided by the number of total 911 emergency communications for the state for the year.

(2) The commission shall transmit funds collected under Section 69-2-402 each month to a public safety answering point as follows:

(a) for fiscal years 2018 and 2019 only, an amount equal to the greater of:

(ii) the public safety answering point's proportional distribution for the month; and

(b) for a fiscal year after fiscal year 2019, the public safety answering point's proportional distribution for the month.

(3) A public safety answering point's proportion of 911 emergency service charge revenue is an amount equal to the total funds collected under Section 69-2-402 for the current month multiplied by the average proportion of total call volume for the public safety answering point over the three years previous to the current year.

(4)(a) For the purpose of the calculation described in Subsection (3), the Utah Communications Authority shall determine for each year:

(i) the number of total 911 emergency communications for the state;
