RE: Numbering "Safety Valve" request for Teleport Communications America, LLC
("TCAL")
Dear Ms. Hall
On behalf of Teleport Communications America, LLC ("TCAL"), we respectfully
request that the Idaho Public Utilities Commission ("Commission") review the decision of
the NeuStar Pooling Administration ("PA") denying TCAL's application for five thousand-
blocks of numbers to be used to serve alarge business customer in the Idaho Falls rate
center.
This request is based on the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") rules per
47 C.F.R. 52.15(dg) and pursuant to the Thousands-Block Number (NXX-X) Pooling
Administration Guidelines and the Central Office Code (NXX) Assignment Guidelines
published by the Industry Numbering Committee ("fNC").
The customer is requesting 5,000 numbers for the Idaho Falls rate center. TCAL has
developed a communications plan that the customer will implement and assign the numbers
as soon as they are made available. A copy of the customer's Letter of Intent ("LOI") is
attached as ATTACHMENT A. This document is considered CONFIDENTIAL and
therefore has been printed on yellow paper and sealed in an envelope attached to this letter.
On December 13, 2017, TCAL submitted the "Thousand Block Application Form
Part 1A" to the PA for 5,000 numbers (ATTACHMENT B). TCAL received a denial error
message indicating the request did not "meet the MTE ("months-to-exhaust") and/or
Utilization requirements" and advised that TCAL could request a state waiver from the Idaho
Commission if not in agreement with the decision. While TCAL met the MTE threshold, it
did not meet the Utilization requirement. Documentation of this request/denial is enclosed.
TCAL currently owns only 208-497-6 with approximately 502 available numbers.
TCAL respectfully requests that the Idaho Commission overturn the PA's decision
expeditiously in the interest of our customer, as we are unable to satisfy the numbering needs
