Numbering
Resources / 2008 Archives
Welcome to the Numbering Resources Page. The Commission’s numbering
policies are designed to ensure the efficient and effective use of telephone
numbers for the provision of telecommunications services. The Commission
works closely with the North American Numbering Council, the Commission’s
federal advisory committee on numbering issues, state commissions, and
industry groups to achieve effective numbering resource management. The
Commission has sought to optimize the use of numbering resources by:
(1) minimizing negative impact on consumers of premature area code exhaust;
(2) ensuring access to numbering resources for all service providers;
(3) extending the life of the NANP; (4) imposing the least societal cost
possible, and ensuring competitive neutrality; (5) minimizing incentives
for carriers to carry excessively large inventories of numbers. Some
of the measures used by the Commission include: area code relief; thousands-block
number pooling; and local number portability.
