Issue 783, CO Code Requests from New NPAs
•
Prior to the in-service date of a new NPA code, there is a need to ensure the
appropriate supply of thousands-blocks is available in the exhausting area code(s).
Historically, code assignments could be made up to 6 months prior to the effective
date of the new NPA.
•
Although blocks from these codes may replenish the pool, they are not viable until the
effective date of the new NPA. As a result, SPs requiring a block prior to the effective
date of the new NPA are unable to obtain a usable block since the criteria for
assignment of a code to replenish the pool cannot be met, even though codes are
available in the current NPA.
•
To avoid this situation, a modification to the guidelines was made to change the
interval when codes can be requested from the new NPA from 6 months to 66 days
prior to the effective date of the new NPA unless there are no NXXs available for
assignment in the existing NPA.
•
Changing the interval will ensure a supply of thousands-blocks is maintained in an
exhausting area code, and thousands-blocks from a new NPA not yet effective do not
hamper the ability to replenish the pool with usable thousands-blocks.
•
INC expedited the closure of this Issue to allow the publishing of revised planning
letters to avoid this situation in current and upcoming area code relief projects.
