In determining the reimbursement rate, the Office of Emergency Services shall utilize the approved pricing submitted by the supplier providing the equipment or service.
(b) This section shall not be construed to limit an agency's ability to select a supplier or procure telecommunications equipment as long as the supplier's pricing is preapproved by the Office of Emergency Services.
