IEPREP doesn't address 911 calling, ECRIT does - and currently has frowned 
upon the use of prioritizing sessions/flows/calls in its efforts to date.

As Dennis and others pointed out, currently, there is no preemption on the 
public circuit-switched networks for GETS. I believe the E911 example is 
the reason for the rule of "no preemption" by GETS.
