LUNENBURG prefixes in area code 978

NANPA records 3 assigned NXX blocks to rate center LUNENBURG in area code 978, 0.4% of the 773 blocks assigned in the code. 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. 3 holders hold those blocks, the largest being BANDWIDTH.COM CLEC, LLC - MA (1), VERIZON NEW ENGLAND INC. (1), PAETEC ITEL, LLC (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2005-03-16 and the most recent 2011-03-18. 3 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots. The same rate center name also appears in area codes 351, 802 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
