What is the general requirement if you are replacing any public service agency equipment?

When replacing any public service agency equipment, it is generally required to both notify the agency and file a permit application. Notifying the agency ensures that they are aware of the changes being made and can assess any impacts on their services or infrastructure. This communication is critical for coordinating efforts and minimizing disruptions.

Filing a permit application is equally important as it typically ensures that the replacement complies with local regulations and codes. This step helps ensure that the work is carried out safely and meets the necessary standards required by the jurisdiction.

Together, these actions help facilitate a smooth transition during the equipment replacement process and maintain appropriate regulatory oversight, which is essential for public safety and service continuity.
