 | | New York, NY October 2, 2002 (ICB TOLL FREE NEWS) On September 13th ICB reported that the toll free industry was seeking written permission from the FCC (via industry committee SNAC) to release 855 number reservations. |
 | | Commission staff has indicated, however, that it would be appropriate for companies to release 855 reservations, since the Commission is planning to open a proceeding that will address, among other issues, the first-come, first-serve aspect of the toll-free system. |
 | | During the discussion with ATIS legal, the Commission staff noted that, during the Forum on Toll-Free Numbers Administration held on March 4, 2002, it was indicated that the Commission will issue a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) regarding the toll-free system, most likely sometime this year. |
