A rate center is the billing geography a block is allocated to – NANPA truncates the name to ten characters, so read it as a NANPA label rather than a town. 2 holders hold those blocks, the largest being CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - MN (2), EAST OTTER TAIL TEL. CO. (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-11-12 and the most recent 2008-10-21. 1 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
