1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3, within 10 business days after the completion of all activities taken in response to a request for intrastate mutual aid, each assisting participant shall provide a written notice to the requesting participant if the assisting participant intends to seek reimbursement from the requesting participant.
2. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3, within 60 calendar days after the completion of the activities specified in subsection 1, the assisting participant shall provide to the requesting participant a final request for reimbursement which must include:
(a) A summary of the services provided;
(b) An invoice setting forth all services provided and the total amount of the reimbursement requested;
(c) Any supporting documentation;
(d) Any additional forms required by the System; and
(e) The name and contact information of a person to contact if more information is needed.
3. If an assisting participant requires additional time to comply with the provisions of subsection 1 or 2, the assisting participant must request an extension in writing from the requesting participant. A requesting participant may, for good cause shown, grant an extension for an additional reasonable period.
4. A requesting participant shall reimburse an assisting participant for all reasonable costs incurred by the assisting participant in responding to the request for intrastate mutual aid, including, without limitation, any costs related to the use of personnel and equipment and travel. All costs must be documented in order to be eligible for reimbursement pursuant to this section, unless otherwise agreed upon by the requesting participant and assisting participant. Any costs associated with resources which were used without request are not eligible for reimbursement.
5. Reimbursement may be facilitated through the Division, upon request.
6. If a dispute between participants occurs regarding reimbursement, the participant disputing the reimbursement shall provide a written notice to the other participant setting forth the issues in dispute. If the dispute is not resolved within 90 days after the notice is provided, either participant may submit the matter to binding arbitration, which must be conducted pursuant to the rules for commercial arbitration established by the American Arbitration Association.
7. The Division is not liable for any claim relating to the reimbursement of costs for providing intrastate mutual aid.
