8. NPA Workshop, Issue 216: (Designation of 37X or 96X to a Non-Geographic, Technology Specific Application (E-Fax))
INC Issue Resolution statement for 216:
The INC recommends that these types of services not be assigned non-geographic resources. These services, such as efax, complete calls on a geographic basis and are rated and charged accordingly. INC has initially determined the use of non-geographic resources will require development of new infrastructure for access, rating, and billing to support the use of these non-geographic resources. Additionally, non-geographic resources traditionally require the translation to geographic numbers for routing purposes and would therefore consume up to twice as many numbering resources compared to using only geographic numbers.
