a)         Instruct an overpaid 9-1-1 Authority, by email or mail, to redirect funds with a check to the proper (underpaid) 9-1-1 Authority in applicable instances (in which case, each affected provider shall furnish proof to the Department that the redirection of funds has been completed as instructed);

b)         Offset one or more future grant payments to an overpaid 9-1-1 Authority;

c)         Increase one or more future grant payments to an underpaid 9-1-1 Authority; or

d)         Release a grant payment to an underpaid 9-1-1 Authority on an interim basis during the month under the following conditions:

1)         The underpaid 9-1-1 Authority has requested this remedy, by mail or email, due to fiscal constraints; and

2)         The Statewide 9-1-1 Fund contains sufficient funds to avoid underpaying another 9-1-1 Authority on the next monthly distribution due to this interim release of funds.
