PETITION OF THE
` ^ =
NORTH AMERICAN NUMBERING PLAN ADMINISTRATOR
ON BEHALF OF THE TEXAS TELECOMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRY
Neustar, Inc., the North American Numbering Plan Administrator
( NANPA ),
in its role
as the neutral third partyl NPA relief planner for Texas under the North American Numbering
Plan and on behalf of the Texas telecommunications Industry ( Industry ),2 petitions the Public
Utility Commission of Texas ( Commission )3 to approve an all-services overlay for relief for
the 210 numbering plan area ( NPA ).4 The Industry submits its petition to the Commission
based upon NANPA's projections that absent NPA relief, the supply of central office codes
(often referred to as CO or NXX codes) for the 210 NPA will exhaust during the third
quarter of 2018. In support of this application and on behalf of the Industry, NANPA submits
the following:
`
As the neutral third party administrator, NANPA has no independent view regarding the relief option
selected by the Industry.
2
The Industry is composed of current and prospective telecommunications carriers operating in, or
considering operations within, the 210 area code of Texas.
The Federal Communications Commission ( FCC ) delegated authority to review and approve NPA
relief plans to the states. See 47 C.F.R. § 52.19.
4 In order to plan for the introduction of new area codes, NANPA and the Industry utilize the NPA Code
Relief Planning and Notification Guidelines (ATIS-0300061, September 9, 2014) ( NPA Relief Planning
Guidelines ). The NPA Relief Planning Guidelines assist NANPA, the Industry and regulatory authorities
within a particular geographic NPA in the planning and execution of relief efforts and can be accessed at

I. BACKGROUND
The 210 NPA currently serves the greater metropolitan area of the City of San Antonio
including the smaller cities of Alamo Heights, Balcones Heights, Castle Hills, Cibolo, Converse,
China Grove, Elmendorf, Fair Oaks Ranch, Garden Ridge, Grey Forest, Helotes, Hill Country
Village, Hollywood Park, Kirby, Leon Valley, Live Oak, Olmos Park, Saint Hedwig, Schertz,
Selma, Shavano Park, Terrell Hills, Universal City, Von Ormy and Windcrest within the
counties of Atascosa, Bexar, Comal, Guadalupe, Medina and Wilson. In 1992, a two-way
geographic split was implemented for the relief of the 512 NPA creating the 210 NPA. In 1997,
the 210 NPA underwent a three-way geographic split creating the 830 NPA and the 956 NPA. In
1998, the Commission ordered the consolidation of 29 rate centers to create one rate center in the
210 NPA.
The April 2015 NRUF (Numbering Resource Utilization/Forecast) and NPA Exhaust
Analysis ( 2015 NRUF Report ), published by NANPA, indicates that the 210 NPA will exhaust
the supply of CO codes during the third quarter of 2018.5 Based upon the projected exhaust of
the 210 NPA, NANPA convened an Industry relief meeting via conference call on August 26,
20156 to address relief for the 210 NPA. Pursuant to the NPA Relief Planning Guidelines,7
NANPA distributed a two-month notice to the Industry containing a draft relief petition prior to
the relief planning meeting.g

DESCRIPTION OF THE
OVERLAY
RELIEF PLAN
The all-services overlay would superimpose a new NPA over the same geographic area
covered by
the existing
210 NPA and
is projected to last approximately
33 years. CO
codes in
the new overlay NPA will be assigned
upon request
upon the effective date of the new NPA
code.
At exhaust of the 210 NPA, all future code
assignments
will be made in the new overlay
NPA code. All
existing customers would retain
their 210
area code and would not have to
change their telephone numbers. All local calls within and between the 210 NPA and the new
NPA would be dialed using 10 digits.9 The new dialing plan would be implemented with the new
overlay relief plan. The dialing
plan is set forth in the table below:

The Industry participants reached consensus to recommend to the Commission a thirteen
month schedule for implementation of the overlay with relief in place six months prior to the
forecasted exhaust.10 The recommended schedule is as follows:
'47 C.F.R.
§52.19 c) 3) ii).

TEXAS - 210 NPA
INITIAL
RELIEF PLANNING MEETING
VIA CONFERENCE CALL
FINAL MINUTES
August 26, 2015
WELCOME, INTRODUCTIONS AGENDA REVIEW
Joe Cocke, Senior NPA Relief Planner-NANPA,
welcomed the participants and
reviewed the objective
of the meeting. A list of attendees can be
found in Attachment #1.
Joe mentioned there would be a quality survey
sent via email to those attending
today's
call. Joe then reviewed the agenda
and NANPA's
role and responsibilities.
NANPA's ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Joe reviewed NANPA's role and responsibilities for today's meeting as follows:
•
NANPA starts the relief planning process 36 months prior to exhaust of the NPA.
• Distribute the notice with draft petition for approval at least two months prior to
the Relief Meeting
•
Review the recommended overlay when no other option meets the guidelines.
Joe explained that because the 210 NPA consists of only one rate center, there are
no split options that can be developed and only an overlay is applicable.
• The main objective is achieved by reaching consensus on the draft petition to
recommend to the State of Texas Public Utilities Commission.
•
Also determine any additional items to include in a filing with the TX PUC such
as implementation intervals.
•
Then NANPA is charged with the responsibility of filing a relief petition, on
behalf of the industry, with the regulatory authority. Once the industry comes to
consensus on what should be included in the filing, NANPA will file the legal
document within six weeks of today's meeting.
REVIEW CONSENSUS PROCESS AND NPA RELIEF PLANNING
GUIDELINES
Joe stated that the ATIS (Alliance for Telecommunications Solutions) approved industry
consensus process would be followed. He reviewed the consensus process and explained
how consensus is determined. In addition, Joe stated that the minutes would be comprised
of consensus agreements, and that issues not captured by consensus could be expressed in
the form of a Statement for the Record, which could be conveyed at any point during the
meeting.
Joe reviewed the most pertinent items from the Industry Numbering Committee (INC)
NPA Code Relief and Planning and Notification Guidelines for this meeting as follows:
•
Section 5.6.2 - Where NPA relief is required for a single NPA area and NANPA
has determined that only an overlay alternative will meet the guidelines, the Initial
Planning Document, relief planning meeting, and industry consensus to
recommend an overlay is not required.

-NANPA
shall draft a relief plan petition requesting approval of the overlay and
recommending an implementation schedule including network preparation,
customer education, and a permissive dialing period.
-NANPA shall notify all affected parties at least two months in advance of a
conference call scheduled to review and approve the draft petition.
-During the conference call, the timeframes for the implementation schedule will
be determined to finalize the relief petition.
The draft petition will include a
recommendation for 10-digit dialing for local' and toll to home NPA (HNPA) and
1+10-digit
dialing to local and toll foreign NPA
(FNPA),
or the state's existing
overlay dialing plan. The recommended mandatory dialing date should be six
months prior to the forecasted exhaust
(
see Section 5.1). As usual, meeting
minutes shall be produced and distributed
by NANPA within
10 days of the
conference call.
NANPA shall submit the petition to the appropriate regulatory agency requesting
approval of the overlay, and after regulatory approval has been received, NANPA
shall proceed with the implementation process, as reflected in Sections 5.7 - 5.12.
•
The NPA Relief Planning, as well as other relevant NPA assignment and relief
guidelines,
may be downloaded from the ATIS web site at
(www.atis.org/inc/incguides.asp).
STATUS OF TEXAS 210 NPA
Joe provided a read-out of the monthly CO Code Assignment Activity for the Texas 210
NPAs (Attachment 2). As of August 25, 2015, the 210 NPA has 712 codes assigned, 68
codes available for assignment and 20 Unavailable codes. There are 44 service provider
OCNs that are code holders in the 210 NPA, and no service provider OCNs that are only
one-thousand-block holders in the NPA.
Joe also provided code assignment history for the 210 NPA as follows: There were 18
total codes assigned YTD as of August 25, 2015 (an average of 2.25 codes per month),
30 codes assigned in 2014, 25 assigned in 2013; 16 assigned in 2012; 20 assigned in 2011
and 39 assigned in 2010.
Exhaust Forecast:
The April 2015 NRUF (Numbering Resource Utilization/Forecast) and NPA Exhaust
Analysis ( 2015 NRUF Report ), published by NANPA, indicates that the 210 NPA will
exhaust during the third quarter of 2018. Relief planning is to start in 3Q2015. Joe stated
the exhaust date is not expected to change with the next NRUF Forecast.
STATUS OF ONE-THOUSAND-BLOCK POOLING IN 210 NPAs
As an industry Best Practice, service providers are encouraged to also provide permissive 1+ 10
digit local dialing at their discretion.

Cecilia
McCabe, NeuStar Pooling Implementation, stated number pooling started in the
210 NPA on October 1, 2001. There is 1 rate area, and which is in mandatory pooling.
From August 1, 2014 through August 25, 2015, there have been 387 blocks assigned and
there are 6 blocks available as of August 25, 2015. For the same period, Pooling has
assigned 34 codes; 33 for pool replenishment, none for dedicated customers and 1 for
LRNs. The forecasted need for codes for the next twelve months is 23 codes for pool
replenishment and dedicated customers. (See Attachment 3)
BACKGROUND:
The 210 NPA currently serves the greater metropolitan area of the City of San Antonio
including the smaller cities of Alamo Heights, Balcones Heights, Castle Hills, Cibolo,
Converse, China Grove, Elmendorf, Fair Oaks Ranch, Garden Ridge, Grey Forest,
Helotes, Hill Country Village, Hollywood Park, Kirby, Leon Valley, Live Oak, Olmos
Park, Saint Hedwig, Schertz, Selma, Shavano Park, Terrell Hills, Universal City, Von
Ormy and Windcrest within the counties of Atascosa, Bexar, Comal, Guadalupe, Medina
and Wilson. In 1992, a two-way geographic split was implemented for the relief of the
512 NPA creating the 210 NPA. In 1997, the 210 NPA underwent a three-way
geographic split creating the 830 NPA and the 956 NPA. In 1998, the Commission
ordered the consolidation of 29 rate centers to create one rate center in the 210 NPA.
Joe then briefly reviewed the code holder table, rate center table and state area code map
and rate center maps for the 210 NPAs.
REVIEW DRAFT RELIEF PETITION FOR THE 210 NPA
Joe reviewed the draft relief petition for the 210 NPA distributed on June 24, 2015, which
recommends an all services overlay since there is only one rate center. A new NPA code
would be assigned to the same geographic area occupied by the existing 210 NPA.
Customers would retain their current telephone numbers and ten-digit dialing by all
customers within and between NPAs in the affected area would be required. The same
dialing plan in other Texas overlay NPAs would be used for the new overlay. Codes in
the new overlay NPA will be assigned upon request with the effective date of the new
area code. At exhaust of the 210 NPAs all future code assignments will be made in the
new overlay area code. The projected life is approximately 33 years. Consensus was
reached to approve NANPA's recommended petition.

ESTABLISH IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE
Joe noted that the start of mandatory dialing should avoid major holiday periods such as
Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's. Interval dates, start of permissive dialing and
mandatory dialing, will occur during non-business hours, usually early Saturday
mornings. Joe mentioned the INC guidelines state that
NANPA
should recommend
mandatory dialing start 6-months prior to the forecasted exhaust of the 210
NPA, which
according to the latest exhaust forecast, would be in 1Q2018.
After some discussion, due to the potential of continued high code demand and an earlier
than expected NPA exhaust, the industry decided the specific implementation dates will
be identified at an implementation meeting after the PUC has approved the plan.
A recommendation was made and consensus reached to recommend to the Commission a
13-month schedule for implementation of the overlay with a 6-month network
preparation and customer education period, followed by a 6-month permissive dialing
period ending with mandatory 10-digit local dialing (6-months prior to the forecasted
exhaust), then a one month quiet period before the effective date of the new NPA. The
recommended schedule is as follows:
Interval Timeframes for Overlav:

TIMEFRAME
Total Implementation Period
13 months
Customer Education and Network Preparation Period

Interval between start of Mandatory 10-digit dialing and
earliest activation of CO Codes in the new NPA (effective
date of the new NPA)
1
Month
STATEMENTS FOR THE RECORD
There were no statements submitted for the record.
NANPA FILING INDUSTRY EFFORTS WITH COMMISSION
Consensus was reached that NANPA will file the petition with the State of Texas Public
Utilities Commission ( TX PUC ) informing them of the outcome of this relief meeting.
The INC guidelines reflect the relief petition is to be filed with the regulator within 6
weeks (10/7/15) of the initial relief planning meeting unless otherwise decided by the
industry.

Relief Planning Conference
Call for 210 NPA
The North American Numbering Plan Administration (NANPA) has scheduled an area code
relief-planning meeting via conference call to provide the industry an opportunity to review and
approve a draft petition for the Texas 210 NPA, which is projected to exhaust 3Q2018.
According to ATIS INC NPA Code Relief Planning and Notification Guidelines, Section 5.6.2
NANPA is to prepare for industry review a draft petition to add an additional NPA to a single
NPA area where NANPA has determined that only an overlay alternative will meet the
guidelines.
Therefore, on August 26, 2015, NANPA will be hosting an industry meeting via conference call
to review and approve the draft relief petition for an overlay of the 210 NPA. We will follow the
consensus process, developed in an open industry forum, under the auspices of the Alliance for
Telecommunications Industry Solutions (ATIS). Attached are an agenda along with the
consensus process, a meeting aid with the above mentioned INC Guideline section explaining the
streamlined process , CO Code summary and Pooling Statistics Reports, Service Provider CO
Code assignments for each NPA by OCN, the draft petition and related rate center maps.
Because the impacts
of NPA relief
are so significant,
NANPA
strongly encourages your
participation on August
26, 2015. This
will be the only meeting of the industry before a
recommended plan is submitted to the Public Utilities Commission of Texas for approval. The
details of the relief planning meeting conference call are as follows:
Date: Wednesday, August 26, 2015
Time: 12:00 pm, ET; 11:00 am CT; 10:00 am MT; 9:00 am PT

7 RESOLUTION PROCESS
7.1 Consensus
Consensus is the method used by the ATIS Forums
to reach resolution
of Issues, unless sp ecifically otherwise provided for in these Operating
Procedures.
Consensus is established when substantial agreement has been
reached among those participating in the Issue at hand. Substantial
agreement means more than a simple majority, but not necessarily
unanimous agre eme nt.
Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that
a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. Observers shall have
the opportunity to express their views and to influence the opinions of
Voting Members. However, the opinions of Observers are not considered
by the leadership in determining whether consensus has been achieved.
Under some circumstances, consensus is achieved when the minority no
longer wishes to articulate its objection. In other cases, the opinions of
the minority should be recorded with the report of the substantial
agreement, or consensus, of the majority.
When
there are questions or disputes regarding consensu s, leaders or
participants sho uld ask an objecting participant s) to state the rationale
for the objection and provide an op portunity
for full
discussion aimed at
achieving ful l understanding an d con sideration o f the objection.
A participant s silence is perceived as agreement by the committee and
its leadership. If participants do not agree, they should be encouraged to
speak up and voice their opinion.

Excerpts from the NPA Code Relief Planning & Notification Guidelines, ATIS-0300061 - 9/5/14
This
meeting aid is prepared to assist the participants in understanding basic steps and
considerations in NPA
Relief Planning and the criteria established to determine
if relief
alternatives are viable.
Section:
2.6
The ATIS
consensus process will be employed in selecting an industry relief
recommendation to ensure that the plan that does not favor a particular interest group.
2.12
Once there is an approved relief plan, all code holders, block holders, and the Pooling
Administrator (PA) in the exhausting NPA shall take the appropriate steps to facilitate the
implementation of the plan.
Section:
5.0
NPA Relief
Planning
Process
The NRUF and
other available resources are used to
identify
projected
NPA exhaust. NANPA
shall prepare relief options for each
NPA projected
to exhaust within thirty-six months.
Considerations in the NPA Relief Planning Process include:
Sub -A - The relief options shall cover a period of at least five years beyond the predicted
date of exhaust, and shall cover more than one relief activity, if necessary, during the
time frame.
Sub -E - For each relief activity proposed
in the plan, it is recommended that customers
who undergo number changes shall not be required to change again
for a period of 8-10
years.
Sub -F - The use of protected codes (NXXs) is an assignment practice whereby a central
office code assigned in one NPA is not available for assignment in an adjacent NPA in
order to permit 7 digit dialing across the NPA boundary. The use of protected codes
(NXXs), which permits 7-digit dialing across NPA boundaries, should be eliminated as
part of the NPA code relief planning process unless the appropriate regulatory authority
directs otherwise. I

ty.2
oundaries, shall continue unless otherwise directed by the appropriate regulatory authori
Where it is suspected that protected routes and 7-digit dialing cross-boundary exists, NANPA
shall continue the code assignment practices that permit the continued protection of these routes
until such time as these routes are eliminated by the service provider(s) or the appropriate
regulatory authority. Any changes in rate centers or NXXs that would increase or decrease
protected routes shall be reported to NANPA by the service provider initiating the change. The
notification shall include the tariff, the rate centers and NXX codes involved and the direction of
the 7-digit local calling. This notification is important since such changes may have code
consumption implications on multiple NPAs. It should be understood that continuing this
practice can result in a less efficient use of resources and shorten the forecasted lives of the NPA
currently under relief planning as well as the adjacent NPAs; i.e. two-way 7-digit dialing across
NPAs might involve several rate centers and many NXX codes in multiple NPAs. Additionally,
the relief planning model used by NANPA cannot take into account the protected routes when
projecting the lives of new NPA relief alternatives because the model assumptions are based on
the premise that all NXXs available for assignment can be assigned to all rate centers. A high
number of protected routes may impact the availability of NXX codes in specific rate centers
(usually high-demand rate centers), which directly impacts the exhaust timeframe of an area
code.
As a result, NPA relief planning may start prematurely or may not permit for the standard
intervals for relief implementation.
In the long term, the plan shall result in the most effective use possible of all codes serving a
given area. Ideally, all of the codes in a given area shall exhaust about the same time in the case
of splits. In practice, this may not be possible, but severe imbalances, for example, a difference
in NPA lifetimes of more than 10 years, shall be avoided.
5.1
Determine the Expected NPA Exhaust Period - Through the use of historical growth data
as well as expected changes (e.g. pooling) to NXX demands in the future, NANPA
should project to the best of its ability the expected quarter of exhaust of the NPA. Every
practical source of data, including the NRUF survey results should be used as an aid in
this projection. Projection results should be reported to the industry as soon as the NRUF
or other analysis results are available. Once the earliest likely exhaust date is determined,
NANPA should suggest a mandatory dialing date six months prior to the exhaust date if
the recommended relief is an overlay. If the recommended relief is a geographic split,

must be dialed on

the end of the recorded announcement period should be at least six months prior to the
earliest likely exhaust date.
5.3
Define the Attributes of Each Alternative or Method - For each of the alternative relief
methods identified in 5.2, NANPA should, with assistance from the industry participants,
quantify impacts to subscribers, networks and service providers and industry concerns
using Appendix B. Specific calculations such as the relative lengths of the relief periods,
local dialing plans using 7-digits or 10-digits, and if available the number of subscribers
requiring number changes should be made at this point. Any known technical and
operational impacts should also be identified by service providers including items such as
required switch replacements and support system modifications.
5.4
Notify Industry of Pending NPA Exhaust and Results of Initial Relief Planning - The next
step in the NPA Relief Planning Process is to incorporate the results of the steps outlined
in 5.1 through 5.3 into an Initial Planning Document (IPD) for distribution to the Industry
in the affected NPA. The IPD should be attached to a letter notifying Industry members
of future meeting schedules to be held for the purpose of discussing the alternative relief
methods, with the objective of reaching consensus on the method to be adopted. The IPD
should be provided at least four weeks prior to the first industry meeting to allow
individual industry members to fully analyze the alternatives.
5.5
Conduct Industry Meetings with the Goal of Reaching Industry Consensus on a Relief
Plan - Meetings and/or conference calls should be held with all interested members of the
industry within the affected NPA.
When a meeting notice is issued, NANPA will state
that an SP requesting a conference bridge must notify the meeting host to make
arrangements (e.g., equipment, bridge number, cost of call). In order to keep the meeting
manageable, participants on the bridge will not be accorded special consideration3.
NANPA will moderate these meetings or conference calls and will be fully prepared to
answer questions regarding the alternatives. During the meetings/conference calls, new
alternatives may be proposed and must be considered in these discussions. Inasmuch as
the objective of these meetings is to reach industry consensus, subsequent joint meetings
will be held as required until consensus is reached, or until NANPA determines
consensus cannot be reached.
Caveat: those on the bridge may NOT ask for comments to be repeated or for additional explanations to be given
because they cannot see what's happening in the room. The use of a bridge must not slow down the meeting.

In discussing the alternatives, issues such as new NPA boundaries, local calling areas,
protected codes, regulatory issues, customer education, 911 issues, and the length of any
necessary permissive dialing period should be considered.
All meetings and/or conference calls should be fully documented in meeting minutes,
which are to be made available to the local industry within two weeks after the
meeting/conference call and no less than one week prior to a subsequent meeting or call
unless otherwise agreed. Copies of meeting minutes may also be forwarded to the
appropriate regulatory body.
5.6
Notify Appropriate Regulatory Body - When consensus is reached within the industry or
when NANPA determines additional meetings would not achieve consensus, NANPA
should submit to the appropriate regulatory body (or bodies) the results of the industry
effort, if required. In its submission NANPA should also furnish all relevant background
information including any statements for the record submitted in real time by industry
participants (unless otherwise agreed), meeting minutes, mailing lists, etc. In the case
where consensus could not be reached, brief position papers could be included.
5.6.1
Where NPA relief is required for an existing overlay complex, the Initial Planning
Document, relief planning meeting, and industry consensus to recommend an overlay is
not required.
NANPA shall draft a relief plan petition requesting approval of the overlay
and recommending an implementation schedule including a timeframe for network
preparation and customer education, with the new NPA effective at the end of the
implementation schedule. There is no need for a permissive dialing period because local
10-digit dialing will already be in place. The draft petition shall include the state's
existing overlay dialing plan.
NANPA shall
notify all affected parties at least three
(
3) weeks in advance of a
conference call scheduled to review and approve the draft petition. During the
conference call, the timeframes for the implementation schedule will be determined. The
recommended relief should be in place six months prior to the forecasted exhaust (see
Section 7.2).
As usual, meeting minutes shall be produced and distributed
by NANPA
within 10 days of the conference call.
NANPA
shall submit the petition to the appropriate regulatory agency requesting
approval of the overlay, and after regulatory approval has been received,
NANPA shall
proceed with the implementation process, as reflected in Sections
5.7 - 5.12.

5.6.2
Where NPA relief is required for a single NPA area and NANPA has determined that
only an overlay alternative will meet the guidelines, the Initial Planning Document, relief
planning meeting, and industry consensus to recommend an overlay is not required.
NANPA shall
draft a relief plan petition requesting
approval of the overlay and
recommending an implementation schedule including
network
preparation, customer
education, and a permissive dialing period.
NANPA shall notify all affected parties at least two months in advance of a conference
call scheduled to review and approve the draft petition. In the notification, NANPA will
include data (e.g. an NPA with a high concentration of assigned NXXs in one or only a
few rate centers) supporting the recommendation that the overlay is the only relief
method in compliance with the criteria listed in Section 5.0.
The two month timeframe
notification may be necessary to allow individual industry members to fully analyze
impacts to their respective subscribers and networks in determining the timeframes
needed for implementation. Industry members may also need this time to investigate any
technical and operations impacts, such as required switch replacements and support
system modifications to take into consideration when determining the implementation
schedule.
During the conference call, the timeframes for the implementation schedule will be
determined to finalize the relief petition.
The draft petition will include a
recommendation for 10-digit dialing for local4 and toll to
home NPA (HNPA) and 1+10-
digit dialing to local and toll foreign NPA
(FNPA),
or the state's existing overlay dialing
plan. The recommended mandatory dialing date should be six months prior to the
forecasted exhaust
(
see Section 5.1). As usual, meeting minutes shall be produced and
distributed
by NANPA
within 10 days of the conference call.
NANPA
shall submit the petition to the appropriate regulatory agency requesting
approval of the overlay, and after regulatory approval has been received,
NANPA shall
proceed with the implementation process, as reflected in Sections
5.7 - 5.12.
5.7
Approval by Appropriate Regulatory Body - When the regulator issues an order for NPA
relief, NANPA shall confirm the approved plan meets the criteria for assignment as set
forth in this document. If the approved plan meets the criteria, NANPA will assign a new
NPA within one week of receipt of the approved plan. If the approved plan does not

meet the criteria for assignment, NANPA will suspend the assignment pending FCC
direction.
5.8
Public Statements/Press Releases - Public statements released prior to the first industry
NPA relief planning meeting should, to the extent available, contain:
•
factual information about the impending exhaust
of the NPA
•
and that qu estions concerning the relief
effort may
be directed
to the NANPA
During the relief planning process, public statements are not encouraged. However, some
states may require input from the public to the planning process. If questions are directed
to the NANPA,
or if reaction to a press article is warranted, responses should, to the
extent possible, be limited to factual information
(
as opposed to opinion or preference)
concerning relief options being considered and to agreements reached by the industry that
are in the public record.
Within two weeks of the NPA assignment NANPA will issue a press release informing
the public of this action. NANPA need not issue that press release if the regulatory
authority wishes to do so instead. Information that may be incorporated with this
notification includes a map indicating new NPA boundaries and new dialing procedures
(if any).
5.9
Industry NPA Relief Implementation Meeting - NANPA will host and facilitate an
Industry NPA Relief Implementation meeting via conference call following the final
acceptance of a relief plan. [NANPA, on their own initiative or using input from Service
Providers, has the option to convene a face-to-face meeting if the chosen plan presents
unusual implementation factors.] The meeting shall occur no more than 45 days
following the assignment of a new NPA. The agenda for the industry implementation
meeting should include relevant dates, milestones, customer education, press releases,
provision of test numbers, Planning Letter content and subsequent industry
communication regarding implementation issues.
5.10
Planning Letter- NANPA shall post a Planning Letter to its website informing the public
and the industry of pending NPA relief no more than three weeks after the initial
implementation meeting. If regulatory approval of the implementation plan with interval
dates is required, the Planning Letter will be published within 10 business days of

block holders within the affected NPA should provide to the NANPA their company's
NPA Relief Project Coordinator's contact information for inclusion in the company
contact section of the Planning Letter.

210 NPA Background Information
Relief Planning Background and Assumptions:
The 210 NPA currently serves the greater metropolitan area of the City of San Antonio including the
smaller cities of Alamo Heights, Balcones Heights, Castle Hills, Cibolo, Converse, China Grove,
Elmendorf, Fair Oaks Ranch, Garden Ridge, Grey Forest, Helotes, Hill Country Village, Hollywood
Park, Kirby, Leon Valley, Live Oak, Olmos Park, Saint Hedwig, Schertz, Selma, Shavano Park, Terrell
Hills, Universal City, Von Ormy and Windcrest within the counties of Atascosa, Bexar, Comal,
Guadalupe, Medina and Wilson. In 1992, a two-way geographic split was implemented for the relief
of the 512 NPA creating the 210 NPA. In 1997, the 210 NPA underwent a three-way geographic split
creating the 830 NPA and the 956 NPA. In 1998, the Commission ordered the consolidation of 29 rate
centers to create one rate center in the 210 NPA.
CO Code Summary:
As of June 23, 2015, the 210 NPA has 709 codes assigned, 72 codes available for assignment and 19
Unavailable codes. There are 44 service provider OCNs that are code holders in the 210 NPA, and no
service provider OCNs that are only one-thousand-block holders in the NPA.
CO Code Assignment History:
There were 14 total codes assigned
YTD as of June 23, 2015, 30 codes assigned in 2014, 25
assigned
in 2013;
16 assigned in 2012; 20 assigned in 2011 and
39 assigned in 2010.
Exhaust Forecast:
The April 2015 NRUF (Numbering Resource Utilization/Forecast) and NPA Exhaust Analysis ( 2015
NRUF Report ), published by NANPA, indicates that the 210 NPA will exhaust during the third
quarter of 2018. Relief planning for an additional overlay NPA is to start in 3Q2015.
