The 510 area code is expected to use up all available prefixes by June 2018. To ensure the availability of numbers in the 510 area code region, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has begun the process to consider the introduction of a new area code to the geography now served by the 510 area code. Adding a new area code to the 510 area code is known as an overlay, which was proposed by the telecommunications service providers. The proposed overlay, pending CPUC approval, will allow all existing customers to keep their current phone numbers, including the 510 area code.
This meeting is being held in order to provide more information about the area code relief activities in the 510 area code region and to solicit comments from the public. The public is encouraged to voice their opinion by:
1) Attending the Local Jurisdiction and Public Meeting scheduled above in February 2017;

3) Submitting written comments to the CPUC Public Advisor’s Office by postal mail to 320 W. 4th St., Suite 500, Los Angeles, CA 90013; or
