ORDER
Adopted:   March 6, 2007 Released:  March 6, 2007
By the Acting Chief, Competition Policy Division:
1. In this Order, we dismiss as moot the Petition for Emergency Relief and Expedited Action
filed by the Toll-Free Number Coalition (TFNC) on November 9, 2000, and the Petition for Emergency 
Relief filed by The Toll-Free Commerce Coalition (TTFCC) filed on November 14, 2000, both seeking to 
defer the release of the 855 toll free code by Database Management Services, Inc. (DSMI), which was 
scheduled for November 18, 2000.1  However, the 855 toll-free code was not released because on 
November 17, 2000, Commission staff directed DSMI to postpone the release of the 855 code until 
further notice.2 At this time, the 855 toll-free code has not been released.  Therefore, the petitions of 
TFNC and TTFCC are moot.  
2. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to sections 4(i) and 251(e) of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 154(i), 251(e), and sections 0.91 and 0.291 of 
the Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.91, 0.291, that the petitions of TFNC and TTFCC ARE 
DISMISSED.

1 Toll-Free Service Access Codes, CC Docket No. 95-155, Petition for Emergency Relief and Expedited Action, Toll 
Free Number Coalition (filed Nov. 9, 2000); Toll-Free Service Access Codes, CC Docket No. 95-155, Petition for 
Emergency Relief, The Toll-Free Commerce Coalition (filed Nov. 14, 2000) (together, Petitions).  Among other 
things, petitioners raised issues regarding whether deferral would ensure the fair, equitable, and orderly allocation of 
855 toll-free numbers.  They argued that the SMS/800 toll free number reservation process favors Responsible 
Organizations (RespOrgs) using Mechanized Generic Interface (MGI) and “locks out” other RespOrgs (using 
Graphical User Interface (GUI) and dial-up (3279) systems).  See Petitions.
