Abstract: The Federal Communications Commission proposes that Video Relay Service (VRS) and Internet Protocol (IP) Relay Providers remove from the Internet-based TRS Numbering Directory any toll free number that has not been transferred to a subscription with a toll free service provider and for which the user is the subscriber of record, and ensure that the toll free number of a user that is associated with a geographically appropriate NANP number will be associated with the same Uniform Resource Identifier URI as that geographically appropriate North American Numbering Plan (NANP) telephone number. The Commission also proposes that consumer advisories must explain the process by which a VRS or IP Relay user may acquire a toll free number from a toll free service provider, or transfer control of a toll free number from a VRS or IP Relay provider to the user; and the process by which persons holding a toll free number may have that number linked to their ten-digit telephone number in the TRS Numbering Directory. The Commission also proposes that VRS and IP Relay providers that have already assigned or provided a toll free number to a VRS or IP Relay user must, at the VRS or IP Relay user’s request, facilitate the transfer of the toll free number to a toll free subscription with a toll free service provider that is under the direct control of the user.
