SUMMARY: The Commission published in the Federal Register of October 
29, 2015, a document concerning an (Order) establishing an 
authorization process to enable interconnected VoIP providers that 
choose direct access to request numbers directly from the Numbering 
Administrators. Next, this document sets forth several conditions 
designed to minimize number exhaust and preserve the integrity of the 
numbering system. Finally, this document modifies Commission's rules in 
order to permit VoIP Positioning Center (VPC) providers to obtain 
pseudo-Automatic Number Identification (p-ANI) codes directly from the 
Numbering Administrators for purposes of providing E911 services. These 
relatively modest steps will have lasting, positive impacts for 
consumers and the communications industry as we continue to undergo 
technology transitions.

DATES: Effective January 11, 2016,
