The latest meeting report from January 15, 2002, outlines key agreements related to the NANP Optimization Measures, focusing on impact assessments and ongoing consolidation of work. The objectives have been scaled back, emphasizing the need for completion of essential sections and templates. Key aspects include the approach to mandatory 10-digit dialing, rate center consolidation, and individual TN pooling. Future meetings are scheduled to advance discussions on these topics, with the next calls set for January 31, February 28, and March 18, 2002, including face-to-face meetings later in May and June.

Optimization Measures –Workplan • Complete templates • Finish Impact Projection, Availability, Major Implementation Requirements sections • If dollar costs not available, attempt relative cost comparisons between options • List consensus on “other considerations”; note disputed items
Optimization Measures -Status • Impact assessment approach agreed for • Mandatory 10-Digit Dialing • Rate Center Consolidation • Transparent Numbers via Geographic Portability • Individual TN Pooling • Thousands block pooling per NANPA model constitutes baseline projection of NANP life • Agreed to remove Transitional Overlays from consideration. Brief rationale will be in report.
NANP Expansion • INC report recommends single option • No other option considered provides more resources (increases numbers by factor of 100) • Service provider costs of all options agreed to be equivalently large • Thus, selected option is adequate for any comparison of optimization versus expansion • IMG members should review INC documentation then determine if any major issues require further work at this time
