ORDER
Adopted:  July 17, 2008 Released:  July 17, 2008
By the Deputy Chief, Wireline Competition Bureau:
1. On January 22, 2007, pursuant to the Commission’s exclusive jurisdiction over numbering 
resources1 and its obligation to protect public safety,2 the Wireline Competition Bureau (Bureau) assigned 
three toll free numbers to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA)3
for a period of one year.4 Those numbers had previously been used by the Kristin Brooks Hope Center 
(KBHC), a private non-profit organization.  KBHC filed an Application for Review of that Order on 
February 21, 2007.5 On November 20, 2007, SAMHSA filed a request that the temporary assignment be 
made permanent to ensure the continuous operation of the three toll free numbers as public resources.6  
On December 20, 2007, the Commission extended its prior reassignment.7 In this Order, we extend the 
temporary assignment for an additional 120 days.  This extension will allow the Commission time to 
review recent ex parte submissions made by KBHC and SAMHSA.8
