	NANPA : Press Release
		Thousand-block number pooling is a conservation measure designed to extend the current life of the four existing area codes.
		Number pooling will be started August 16 in the 630 area code; by August 30 in 312, and October 1 in the 773 area codes.
		Without implementing number pooling, the projected exhaust dates of the four area codes are: fourth quarter 1999 for 630; second quarter 2000 for 312, third quarter 2000 for 773; and second quarter 2001 for 708.

	831 Utilization Report
		Number pooling is tentatively scheduled to begin in 831 in fall 2002.
		Number pooling allows telephone companies to receive numbers in smaller blocks than the traditional 10,000 numbers which enables multiple providers to share one prefix thereby utilizing this limited resource more efficiently.
		Since the FCC recognized that the states' thousand-block number pooling trials underway might not conform to the national standards set forth in the first NRO Order, the FCC gave state commissions until September 1, 2000 to conform their thousand-block number pooling trials to the national framework.

	FR Doc 03-18366
		Expanding pooling to all carriers in the 100 largest MSAs furthers the Commission's numbering resource optimization goals by allowing telephone numbers to be assigned to carriers in smaller blocks in areas where the demand for numbering resources have proven to be the greatest.
		Pooling is an enhancement of ordinary numbering administration, and access charges are the means by which access customers share in the costs of operating and maintaining the telephone network.
		Pursuant to the Commission's adoption of thousands-block number pooling as a mandatory nationwide numbering resource optimization strategy, all carriers, except those exempted by the Commission, must participate in thousands-block number pooling where it is implemented and in accordance with the national thousands- block number pooling framework and implementation schedule established by the Commission.

	Number Pooling Report (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Pooling of geographic numbers in a local environment is a number administration and assignment process which allocates numbering resources to a shared reservoir associated with a designated geographic area.
		The impact of number pooling at the thousands-block level was assessed by the 911 Subcommittee of the Workshop.
		Number pooling at the thousands-block level appears to be technically feasible as a means to extend the exhaust date of an NPA.

	WUTC: Number pooling starts January 8, 2002 in Spokane
		Number pooling involves the sharing of telephone prefixes by more than one telecommunications company offering service in a particular area.
		The waiver means that Qwest will not have to participate in number pooling until 2003, but it also cannot request any additional prefixes in a rate center where prefixes are being pooled.
		to implement number pooling was on Nov. 27, 2000.

	[No title]
		In the Pennsylvania Numbering Order, the Commission stated that, upon the establishment of uniform, national standards for pooling, it may determine that it is appropriate to delegate to state commissions the additional authority to implement and enforce those standards.
		The Commission has tentatively concluded that thousands-block number pooling is a numbering administration function, and that section 251(e)(2) authorizes the Commission to provide the distribution and recovery mechanisms for the interstate and intrastate costs of number pooling.
		We conclude that, inasmuch as we are hereby delegating numbering administration authority to the Department, the Department must abide by the same statute applicable to the Commission, and, therefore, ensure that costs of number pooling are recovered in a competitively neutral manner.

	Toll Free 800, Domain Name, and ENUM Industry News and Information
		Thus, consistent with the INC Thousand Block Pooling Guidelines, we require all carriers to donate all thousands-blocks that have a less than ten-percent contamination level to the thousands-block number pool for the rate center from which the numbering resources are assigned.
		In the Notice, we concluded that thousands-block number pooling is a numbering administration function and tentatively concluded that section 251(e)(2) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, authorizes the Commission to provide an exclusively federal distribution and recovery mechanism for both intrastate and interstate costs of thousands-block number pooling.
		Until national thousands-block number pooling is implemented and a federal cost recovery mechanism authorized, states may use their current cost recovery mechanisms to ensure that the carriers recover the costs of thousands-block number pooling implementation and administration in the meanwhile.

	NANPA: Reports
		Pooling may be implemented in rate areas (or rate centers) where the LNP infrastructure is in place.
		After determining that number pooling is an extension of the Central Office Code Administration duties currently provided by CIS as the North American Numbering Plan Administrator (NANPA), the NANC recommended to the FCC that CIS also be the national pooling administrator.
		The states with delegated pooling authority are required under the current FCC granted waivers to determine cost allocation and recovery for pooling trials.

	REPORT ON THE 805 AREA CODE
		The increased demand for numbers is due to many factors, including competition for local phone service, as well as the popularity of faxes, pagers, cell phones, internet services, etc. California's robust economy and the growth in the state's population also contribute to the increased demand for telephone numbers.
		Although a number pooling trial has not started for the 805 area, TD analyzed the 805 utilization data by percentage contamination to determine the availability of numbers that potentially can be used in a number pool.
		Pools are underway in the 310, 408, 415, 510, 650, 714, 818 and 909 area codes and six additional pools are scheduled to begin in 2001.

	Pooling Slowing Number Depletion, But Wireless Far From Joining Mobile Phone News - Find Articles
		Number pooling is proving effective for slowing number exhaustion during a trial in the Chicago area and is being tested in two New York area codes, but applying the practice to wireless carriers isn't likely to occur until late 2002, according to a report by the North American Numbering Council (NANC).
		Pooling also is being tested in the 212 and 718 area codes in the New York City area.
		In today's market, wireless providers generally expend their numbers with little time to spare before their NXX supplies are replenished; many CLECs, however, expend few numbers in the same period of time from their 10,000-number NXX blocks although those numbers are considered removed from the area code's total.

	IEC
		Number pooling is the ability to share an NPA–NXX among several facilities-based carriers within the same rate center with the intent of prolonging the life of an NPA by reducing the demand for new NXXs.
		To facilitate the broadcasting of “pooled” blocks and associated routing data, the location routing number method, the same platform used for LNP, is being used to implement national number pooling.
		Pooling would allow these currently unassigned blocks of numbers to be reassigned to other service providers in need of numbers, as they request and show need.

	NeuStar Initiates Mandatory Number Pooling Trial For Texas
		Number pooling is the technology that allows phone numbers to be assigned in blocks of 1,000, instead of the telephone network-mandated structure of 10,000 numbers blocks, which has been in place since 1947.
		"Pooling trials, particularly the first one in Illinois' 847 area code, have demonstrated to us and to the industry that this is a very effective solution to the country's depleting number resources," said Barry Bishop, Director of Numbering Services for NeuStar.
		Several states have actively sought number pooling as a number conservation measure; NeuStar has already been serving as the pooling administrator in number pooling trials, both voluntary and mandatory, for area codes in Illinois (708, 847, 630, 312, and 773), New York (212, 516, 718 and 716), and California (310 and 415).

	Docket No. 99-999-04 -- Report and Order (Issued: 8/10/00) 801 Area Code Relief
		The FCC has found that thousand-block number pooling is one of the best conservation measures for extending the life of the North American Numbering Plan, and that its use by individual states aids in developing national pooling implementation, architecture, and administrative standards.
		At that level, a pooling carrier is considered to be making good use of a block of numbers and will not be subject to forced recovery of the block.
		The Commission is granted authority to conduct number utilization and forecast reporting audits of carriers to verify carrier compliance with number conservation measures until the FCC enacts national rules or policies relating to auditing carriers' use of numbering resources.

	Expectations for a Number Pooling Trial in Illinois
		Wireline carriers currently using number resources within the 847 NPA intend to participate in a number pooling trial on or around April 1, 1998.
		Monitoring of these attributes/characteristics during the trial period, which is targeted to last six months, will be the principle means of determining the success of the trial as well as the feasibility and effectiveness of number pooling as a code conservation mechanism.
		Changes made to the latter may include those to shorten the transaction interval required to activate pooled numbers, and accommodate any changes to the NPAC interface, such as pooling and range indicators.

	NP Major Impacts
		Thousand-block Number Pooling requires telecommunication carriers to modify significantly the manner in which they account for their inventory of telephone numbers.
		The Mobile Directory Number (MDN), which is the dialable number, will be issued in blocks of 1000 due to number pooling.
		Regardless of whether a carrier is participating in pooling, a carrier is required to semi-annually report utilization and forecast data for proper monitoring of numbering resources within the NANP.

	Recommendation for Item 09 on Agenda for September 16, 2003 of the Florida Public Service Commission
		Thousands-block number pooling allows phone numbers to be allocated to service providers in blocks of 1,000, instead of the historical 10,000 number blocks, which conserves numbers and provides for more efficient number utilization.
		The Commission has tentatively concluded that thousands-block number pooling is a numbering administration function, and that section 251(e)(2) authorizes the Commission to provide the distribution and recovery mechanisms for the interstate and intrastate costs of number pooling.
		Number pooling is the process by which telephone companies share a pool of telephone numbers that have the same central office code (first three numbers of your seven-digit phone number).

	Number Pooling - Cell Phone Glossary - Mobiledia
		Number Pooling - Increasingly popular tactic for conserving phone numbers.
		Numbers are returned by all carriers to a central authority, which puts them in a pool, from which carriers receive numbers in lots of 1,000, not 10,000 as was originally done.
		Smaller lots of numbers reduce their cost and maximize the availability of new numbers to meet public demand.

	WUTC: 991627 - Order Designating an Administrator
		Thousand-block number pooling involves the allocation of blocks of one thousand sequential telephone numbers within the same NXX code to different service providers.
		Such a number pooling administrator will assist the telecommunications industry in developing an implementation schedule (consistent with a final implementation date established by the WUTC) and collecting the information necessary to establish number pools in each rate area.
		Once number pooling is implemented, the administrator fills requests from individual carriers for thousand-number blocks and maintains an adequate supply of numbering resources for each rate area.

	Boston.com / News / Local / Vt. / 802 area code to last at least until 2010 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Whether a state gets a new area code depends on the number of the telephone exchange codes the state has, according to Sterling, Va.-based Neustar Inc., the company that assigns phone numbers to phone companies.
		The slowdown in the use of exchange codes has been helped by number pooling, a practice initiated by the Federal Communications Commission during the late 1990s to help slow the assignment of new area codes.
		Number pooling allows phone companies to share the last four digits of a phone number, called blocks, so other companies can use them, said Linda Hymans, manager of regulatory and compliance with Neustar Number Pooling.

		Letter to the PUC thanking them for implementing voluantary number pooling in 570 and asking them to continue to pursue number conservation measures.
		As members of the Northeast Democratic Delegation representing residents in the 570 area code, we have long advocated 1,000-block number pooling as a way to conserve phone numbers and control the proliferation of area codes.
		Therefore, we are very pleased that the Commission has opted to pursue voluntary number pooling to extend the life of the 570 and 717 area codes.
