Abstract: In the attached Report and Order, the Commission promulgates rules and regulations implementing the statutory requirement that local exchange carriers (LECs) provide number portability. The Commission mandates its provision in the 100 largest metropolitan areas by December 31, 1998, in accordance with a phased implementation schedule and, after that date, within 6 months of a specific request by another carrier. Number portability is to be provided using a regional system of data bases, although States are granted the option to develop their own data bases. The Futher Notice seeks comment on long-term cost recovery issues
