State Fire Marshal and Commerce & Insurance Commissioner Julie Mix McPeak says as more Tennesseans eliminate landline phones from their homes, fire officials want to make sure that they adapt their emergency plans to allow for quick access to their mobile phones in the event of a fire.
While the location of the cell site closest to the 911 callers may provide a general indication of the caller’s location, that information is usually not specific enough for rescue personnel to deliver assistance to the caller quickly.
