8. Opening of ported NXX codes in the switches

 

Sprint, GTE, and Brooks WorldCom indicated that they would be opening the ported NXX codes according to the date in the LERG, rather than waiting for the broadcast message from the NPAC upon the initial request to actually port a number from each NXX code. Sprint and Brooks WorldCom will be revisiting the issue. GTE has confirmed their intentions.

 

 

9. Discuss Timeline Document

 

Commercial availability dates still needed from several carriers.

 

 

10. Comments from PUCO staff

 

PUCO staff stated the May 15th date for commercial availability in the CNCN MSA must be met. A delay will not be acceptable. So, the slip of one week for the field trial start date will not be allowed to delay the May 15th rollout date.
