NANPA records 3 assigned NXX blocks to rate center MER ROUGE in area code 318, 0.4% of the 765 blocks assigned in the code.

The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-05-30 and the most recent 2003-05-30. 3 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
