Section 28-30e - Assessment and collection of prepaid wireless E 9-1-1 fee
(a) Each consumer shall be assessed a prepaid wireless E 9-1-1 fee. Such fee shall be equal to the fee determined by the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority in accordance with subsection (a) of section 16-256g for each retail transaction. For the purposes of this section, if a consumer purchase includes multiple prepaid wireless telecommunications services, each such individual service shall constitute a retail transaction.
(b) Any seller who is a party to a retail transaction within this state with a consumer shall collect the fee described in subsection (a) of this section from such consumer for each such retail transaction. The seller shall disclose to the consumer the amount of such assessed fee in an invoice, a receipt, or other similar document, or post such amount conspicuously on the seller's Internet web site or on a sign conspicuously displayed to the consumer at the point of sale.
(c) For the purposes of subsection (b) of this section, a retail transaction made in the presence of the consumer at the place of business of the seller shall be treated as occurring within this state if such place of business is within the state, and any other retail transaction shall be treated as occurring in this state if the retail transaction is treated as occurring in this state under subdivision (2) of subsection (a) of section 12-407 for the purposes of the sales and use tax.
(d) The consumer shall be liable for any prepaid wireless E 9-1-1 fee. There shall be no liability on the part of the seller or provider, except the seller shall be liable to remit any prepaid wireless E 9-1-1 fees that the seller collects from any consumer, pursuant to section 28-30f, including, but not limited to, any such fee that the seller is required to collect but does not separately state on an invoice, receipt or other similar document provided to the consumer, as required by subsection (b) of this section.
(e) The amount of the prepaid wireless E 9-1-1 fee that a seller collects from a consumer shall not be included in the base for measuring any tax, fee, surcharge or other charge that the state, any political subdivision of the state, or any intergovernmental agency imposes on such seller, provided the seller separately stated such amount on an invoice, receipt, or other similar document provided to the consumer.
