 Citizens Utility Board | News Room | "The CUB Voice" | Saving area codes
Seven Illinois area codes that originally were scheduled to run out of phone numbers by now have not, thanks to a number-conservation plan developed by CUB.
However, new area codes are unnecessary, cause dialing confusion, and force businesses to make costly changes to their phone systems and letterhead.
Plus, in the case of an “overlay” area code, which matches the boundaries of the old code, consumers in the region are forced by federal mandate to dial 10 or 11 digits for all calls.

The Illinois NANP Code Administrator has projected the exhaust of assignable Central Office codes (NXXs) within the 847 area code (NPA) to occur on or around the end of the second quarter of 1998.
The latter would introduce a second area code within the same 847 NPA boundary, to serve all new customers of telecommunications services once the 847 area code was at total exhaust.
In snap back to the code holder’s network, upon a disconnect processed at the NPAC by the last serving provider, the number is un-ported to the code holder’s network, returning the number to default routing.

 847 Residents Spared New Area Code
The ruling requires all phone companies in the 847 area code, and eventually in the entire Chicago metropolitan region, to conserve phone numbers and return the millions of unused phone numbers they have stockpiled.
In August, CUB analyzed phone number utilization data for 847 and found that only half of the available numbers, 4 million out of 7.92 million, in the area code were actually in use by customers or otherwise unavailable.
An industry plan to create new area codes in the remaining suburbs and in Chicago is pending before the ICC.

A: Until January 5, 2002, if you have an 847 area code number and you are dialing another 847 area code number, you will not need to dial 1+847.
At this time, no new blocks of numbers are available in the 847 area code for those telecommunications companies attempting to provide new services to customers; therefore, Area Code 224 must be initiated.

Ever since area codes were introduced in 1947, telephone switches have only looked at the area code and three-digit exchange to determine which terminating carrier gets the call.
Each quarter thereafter, carriers in three area codes in each of the seven original RBOC territories - 21 in all - will be required to implement number pooling.
There are 207 area codes in operation, so the schedule will take at least two and a half additional years to roll out, not counting the new area codes coming on line in that period.

The staff of the Illinois Commerce Commission is proposing that telephone companies operating in area code 847 be forced to return thousands of unused phone numbers the companies hold, in a move to put off the need for a new overlay area code.
The 33 telephone companies operating in area code 847 warn they are running out of telephone numbers--at one point saying they would exhaust the supply this month.
To resolve the problem, the telephone companies suggested area code 224 be created to serve the same region now served by 847.

In addition, a new area code of 224 will be in place for all new telephone lines created in the current 847 area code region, even if they are in the same house or business.

The latter would introduce a second area code within the 847 NPA boundaries, to serve all new customers of telecommunications services once 847 was at total exhaust.
It has been suggested, however, that this near term solution may be applied to other NPAs, in the Chicago area or elsewhere, where LNP is being deployed and the existing area code is approaching, but not yet at, total exhaust.
To determine number utilization within 847, the Illinois Commerce Commission Staff forwarded a data request to all carriers on May 8, 1997, requesting them to report the amount of spare capacity on their 847 NXXs by May 30, 1997.

 847 Area Losing Phone Industry Numbers Game
The telephone industry is close to exhausting its total phone-number supply in the 847 area code and may ask state regulators to activate a new area code beginning early next year.
The irony is that only half of the phone numbers in the 847 area code are being used, according to industry reports, in large part because telephone companies keep so many phone numbers in reserve.
But there is some hope that a proliferation of new area codes in 847 and in other parts of the Chicago region can be avoided.

The Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC), accusing phone companies of hoarding thousands of unused numbers, on Wednesday temporarily blocked a plan by the telephone industry to implement a new area code in the north and northwest suburbs.
If the phone companies get their way, existing 847 area code customers would not have to change their phone numbers, but any new customers in the 847 area code would be assigned the new 224 "overlay" code.
That means all 847 customers would have to dial 11 digits for each call they make, even if they are calling across the street.

The bill prevents the creation of new area codes until a majority of existing numbers are in use by consumers and requires a more effective process of distributing numbers to telecommunication companies.
According to Ameritech, the statewide "Local Number Administrator"; for area code assignments, the supply of numbers in the 847 area code will be exhausted before the end of 1998.
He cites a recent study by the Citizens Utility Board which estimates that of the 40 million numbers created from the last area code additions, only 12 million are being used by consumers.
