11/04/2004NOWG NANC Report3 NANPA Change Order Recommendation Change Order # 2 dated October 25, 2004 Interim Red Light Process This change order proposes that the NANPA perform a manual, interim, process to comply with the FCCs Red Light Rules as ordered in FCC The NOWG proposes that the change order should be approved with modification. The NOWG believes that the standard verbiage described in this change order would be insufficient for the SP if it lacked the FRN and OCN as the reason for the denial. Therefore, the NOWG recommends that this change order only be approved if the NANPA will include that information in the denial verbiage on the Part 3 sent to the SP. NOWG recommendation sent to FCC on 10/27/2004.

11/04/2004NOWG NANC Report4 NANPA Change Order Recommendation Change Order # 3 dated October 25, 2004 NAS Implementation of the Red Light Rule This change order proposes an automated program be developed for NAS to perform a daily check to the FCC delinquent FRN list, compare that list to the NRUF data on file to identify the OCNs associated with the FRN (s) and flag all pending code request submissions by those OCNs so that NANPA can issue the appropriate denial via a Part 3 to comply with the FCCs Red Light Rules. The NOWG proposes that the change order should be approved with modification. The NOWG believes that the standard verbiage described in this change order would be insufficient for the SP if it lacked the FRN and OCN as the reason for the denial. Therefore, the NOWG recommends that this change order only be approved if the NANPA will include that information in the denial verbiage on the Part 3 sent to the SP. NOWG Comment: The NANPA should work in conjunction with PA in developing a mechanized interface to pass this – and other critical information (e.g., Part 1s for full NXX requests, PA/SP forecast information, give PAS the ability to receive Part 3s directly from NANPAs NAS, etc.) – between the two administrators. A mechanized interface will streamline processes and eliminate the probability of human errors in the passing of such information (e.g., late, lost, and misdirected documents). NOWG recommendation sent to FCC on 10/28/2004.

11/04/2004NOWG NANC Report7 PA Change Order Recommendation Change Order # 36 dated October 25, 2004 Red Light Rule System Modification This change order proposes an automated program be developed for PAS to perform a daily check of the FCC delinquent FRN list (once it is received from NANPA) which will already have identified the associated OCNs – and flag all pending block/code request submissions by those OCNs so that the PA can issue the appropriate denial via a Part 3 to comply with the FCCs Red Light Rules.
