in such allocation pursuant to section three hundred thirty-one of this
article. The municipality shall distribute its allocations to eligible
local public safety answering points in accordance with an equitable
distribution based upon eligible 911 service costs incurred.

answering points that received wireless 911 calls during such period. On
or before August first, two thousand two the department of state shall
determine the municipalities eligible to apply for reimbursement
pursuant to this subdivision and shall allocate such moneys among the
eligible municipalities on a per capita basis in accordance with federal

safety answering points, including any reasonable costs incurred to
facilitate the sharing of basic or enhanced wireless 911 information.

each eligible municipality by September fifteenth of each year of the
amount of its allocation or allocations that shall be available for that
year. Allocations for each year may be utilized by an eligible
municipality in whole or in part for a period of thirty-six months after

allocation, provided, however that an allocation can be combined with
subsequent allocations. The department of state may grant an extension
of time to a municipality to utilize its allocation for good cause
shown. If after the three year period, any amount of the allocation is
not expended, disbursed or encumbered, such allocations shall be
available for the next calculation of allocations for all eligible
municipalities.
