  3. About INC • The Industry Numbering Committee (INC) provides an open forum to address and resolve industry-wide issues associated with planning, administration, allocation, assignment and use of North American Numbering Plan (NANP) numbering resources within the NANP area. • Membership • To become a member of INC or ATIS, see http://www.atis.org/membership/become.asp. • To understand how INC operates, see http://www.atis.org/legal/OP.asp

  4. INC Meetings • Meetings • Since the previous NANC meeting, INC held one face-to-face meeting on May 6-9, 2014, and one interim meeting on June 12, 2014. • The next INC meeting will be held in Denver, CO, on July 29-31, 2014. • A virtual meeting is scheduled for July 23, 2014.

  5. Issue 748: Assess Impacts on Numbering Resources and Numbering Administration with Transition from Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to Internet Protocol (IP) • On March 31st, INC filed an ex parte providing high-level functional requirements for the numbering testbed. Dr. Schulzrinne joined the INC working session on May 6th and confirmed that these requirements will be useful. • INC participated in the joint meeting on the all-IP transition held during the ATIS Annual Meeting of the Committees, during which Dr. Henning Schulzrinne presented Technical Transition Update.

  6. Issue 775: Edits to COCAG Appendix C Section 5.8 – Pooled NXX return when Code Holder retaining ports • Issue 740 allows a code holder with ported TNs but no assigned blocks to submit a request for a pooled central office code return to the PA when there are blocks assigned to other service providers. • At the March INC meeting, the PA provided statistics showing an increase in code returns. Asking service providers with only ported TNs to become the code holder resulted in: • extra work for the PA • very few, if any, volunteers among those service providers • a delay to the disposition of the application • Under Issue 775, INC eliminated the step for the PA to contact the service providers with only ported TNs, thus streamlining the work for the PA and service providers and providing the disposition of the code return request sooner. Going forward, the PA will only contact the block holders.

  7. Issue 778: Update INC Guidelines to Identify Permitted Company Code (OCN) Category Types Appropriate for Assignment of Numbering Resources • Service providers (SPs) entering into the telecom/VoIP industry require a NECA assigned Company Code (OCN) in order to receive numbering resources from NANPA or Pooling Administration. • The OCN must be assigned to a NECA Company Code category type that is permissible to receive numbering resources, however, the list of permissible categories has never been clearly defined in INC guidelines, resulting in: • SPs with an incorrect Company Code category type attempting to request numbering resources • SPs changing the Company Code category type of their OCN after numbering resources have been assigned to it • INC will list the permissible Company Code category types in the guidelines to support existing NANPA and PA processes to deny requests when an inappropriate NECA Company Code category type is used. • INC will ask NECA to update its website and documentation to help new entrants determine the appropriate Company Code category type.

  8. Issues in Initial Pending • Issue 768, Updates to the Part 1B form • Issue 765, Updates to the Part 1A form • Issue 770, Updates to the TBPAG Part 3 Form • Issue 772, Update to the TBPAG Appendix 3: MTE & Certification Worksheet
